Naga Chaitanya’s latest film Thandel, directed by Chandoo Mondeti and co-starring Sai Pallavi, has entered the prestigious ₹100 crore club. This milestone marks a significant achievement for Naga Chaitanya, making it the biggest hit of his career. Released in February without major holidays, Thandel overcame initial challenges, including piracy concerns, to emerge as a massive box-office winner.
The film has performed exceptionally well in both domestic and international markets, surpassing $1 million in overseas earnings before completing its second week. In the Telugu states, Thandel has already broken even, bringing solid profits to distributors. Fans of Naga Chaitanya are celebrating the film’s success, thrilled to see their favorite star reach new heights.
Producer Bunny Vasu had earlier expressed confidence that Thandel would join the ₹100 crore club, and his prediction has come true. Film presenter Allu Aravind also believed in the movie’s blockbuster potential, which audiences have confirmed. Thandel has now become one of the biggest hits under the Geetha Arts banner and continues to trend with strong bookings on platforms like BookMyShow.
