As reported by the Sacnilk website, with an estimated Rs 10.91 crore earned on its first Sunday. The film gained a notable upward momentum after a sharp Friday dip. From its Wednesday premiere to the weekend, the period action-drama saw fluctuations in its daily figures, yet sustained enough audience interest to build a solid five-day total of Rs 75.56 crore net. Mixed trends through opening days Reportedly, the Telugu-language historical drama opened with Rs 12.75 crore on its premiere day, before delivering a massive Rs 34.75 crore haul on Thursday, its official Day 1. However, Friday saw a sharp drop to Rs 8 crore, which was majorly due to negative reviews for the Pawan Kalyan starrer. According to the sources, Saturday brought a modest recovery with Rs 9.15 crore, and Sunday further jumped to Rs 10.91 crore in all in Telugu. This gave the makers reason to breathe easy heading into the week. Monday's collection is still pending, but all eyes are now on the weekday hold to see if the film's momentum can continue. A star-driven spectacle with a historical backdrop Set in the 17th-century Mughal Empire, 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu' stars Pawan Kalyan as the legendary warrior tasked with recovering the Koh-i-Noor diamond to liberate a city under siege. The cast features Bobby Deol, Nidhhi Agerwal, Sathyaraj, Nargis Fakhri, Nora Fatehi, and Jisshu Sengupta.
