Kushi’ is having a great run at the box-office!
True to its name (meaning joy in Telugu), the Vijay Deverakonda- Samantha Ruth Prabhu film has turned out to be a source of happiness for the leads. The movie has collected a whopping Rs 35.25 crore within four days of its release!
The movie enjoyed a huge opening day figure at Rs 15 crore and went on to earn Rs 9.9 and Rs 10 crore in the following days respectively.
‘Kushi’ also marks Deverakonda’s triumphant return to box-office glory. For the past five years or so, the ‘Arjun Reddy’ star had struggled to get a hit. His Bollywood debut ‘Liger’ (also starring Ananya Pandey) couldn’t make a dent at the box-office. The movie also reaffirms Prabhu’s return as the reigning queen of Telugu cinema. Her last movie ‘Shakuntalam’ (based on the Indian epic) also suffered a lacklustre fate at the box-office.
Recently, Deverakonda celebrated ‘Kushi’ spectacular run at the box-office by paying a visit to the Yadadri temple in Telangana. “My Family has been blessed this year with lots of love & Kushi Visited the most beautiful Yadadri temple to offer our gratitude with our families. When I was told of the powerful nature of the temple — I prayed for all of you,” he wrote on X.
Directed by Shiva Niravana (who is known for delivering hit romantic dramas such as the 2019 Samantha-Naga Chaitanya film ‘Majili’, and the 2017 rom-com ‘Ninnu Kori’, ) and produced by Mythri Movie Makers, ‘Kushi’ is about two people of different temperaments who marry despite facing fierce opposition from their families, only to discover that they are as different as chalk and cheese. Various insecurities and misunderstandings spoil their romance.
Apart from Deverakonda and Prabhu, the movie also
