Venkatesh’s ‘Guru’ held pretty strong over the week days and posted a decent first week total in the Telugu states.
As its competitors Katamarayudu and Puri’s ‘Rogue’ failed to make any impact, Guru enjoyed maximum foot falls. The first gross is reportedly Rs 19cr approx. and Share is about 12.4 Cr.
Below is the area wise break-up:
Nizam – 4,25,00,000
Ceded – 1,52,00,000
Nellore – 31,00,000
Guntur – 82,17,158
Krishna – 96,41,659
West – 54,00,000
East – 95,00,000
Uttharandhra – 1,54,86,457
Total 1st week AP & TG Share – 10.91cr
Karnataka – 90,00,000
Remaining – 60,00,000 (estimated)
Total 1st week Worldwide Share – 12.41cr
As this week’s release ‘Cheliyaa’ failed to meet the expectations, Guru is expected to have one more week of unopposed run at box office before Varun Tej’s ‘Mister’ arrives on April 14.
