Peddi Week 1 Box Office Collection: Surpasses They Call Him OG by 1.12% to Enter All-Time Top 5 APTG Grossers
BY SACNILK
The first week of Peddi has officially concluded, and the final tally for the Telugu market shows that the film has secured a major spot in the history books. By reaching 175.80 crore in gross collections across Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, it has now entered the All-Time Top 5 list of highest Week 1 grossers in the region. This move sees it successfully overtaking the first-week numbers of Pawan Kalyan's They Call Him OG, which previously held that position with 173.85 crore. When looking at the all-time list, Peddi now finds itself in the company of industry giants. While RRR remains the undisputed leader with a opening week gross of nearly 280 crore, and Pushpa 2 follows with 228 crore, Peddi has carved out its own space by maintaining high occupancy throughout its extended run. It is noteworthy that the film has also moved ahead of legendary titles like Baahubali 2 and recent hits like Devara: Part 1 in its home territory. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The trend in the Telugu states has been the primary engine for the film's global success. While other regions have seen a standard weekday decline, the mass centers in Andhra Pradesh and the multiplexes in Telangana have shown remarkable resilience. This stronghold in the home market is what has allowed Peddi to maintain its landmark position as it enters the second weekend. Below is the updated list of the Top 10 highest-grossing films in APTG after the first week of release. Top 10 Tollywood Movies: Highest Week 1 Gross (APTG) RANK MOVIE NAME WEEK 1 GROSS (APTG) 1 RRR ₹ 279.75 Cr 2 Pushpa 2: The Rule ₹ 228.00 Cr 3 Kalki 2898 AD ₹ 209.45 Cr 4 Salaar: Cease Fire - Part 1 ₹ 191.90 Cr 5 Peddi ₹ 175.80 Cr 6 They Call Him OG ₹ 173.85 Cr 7 Baahubali 2: The Conclusion ₹ 170.00 Cr+ 8 Devara: Part 1 ₹ 164.80 Cr 9 Sankranthiki Vasthunam ₹ 145.95 Cr 10 Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu ₹ 105.75 Cr (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) While the film successfully entered the elite bracket in terms of regional gross, the performance of the Telugu language version across India tells a slightly different story regarding its nationwide ranking. In terms of Week 1 net collections for the Telugu version, Peddi narrowly missed out on entering the Top 5 list. With a net of 173 crore, the film secured the sixth position, finishing just behind Mana Shankara Varaprasad Garu. Although it didn't break into the top five, it still managed to comfortably surpass the opening week net of They Call Him OG, which had collected 165 crore. This highlights that while the movie is a massive success, the benchmarks set by recent event films in the Telugu language version remain incredibly high to scale. Top 10 Week 1 Telugu Net Collections (India): 1. RRR: ₹298.51 Cr 2. Pushpa: The Rule - Part 2: ₹242.00 Cr 3. Kalki 2898 AD: ₹212.25 Cr 4. Baahubali 2 The Conclusion: ₹203 Cr 5. Salaar: Cease Fire - Part 1: ₹186.05 Cr 6. Mana Shankara Varaprasad Garu: ₹179 Cr 7. Peddi: ₹173 Cr 8. They Call Him OG: ₹165 Cr 9. Devara - Part 1: ₹164 Cr 10. Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy : ₹138 Cr As the film moves into its second week, the focus remains on its ability to sustain this momentum. While the pan-India response has been steady but not record-breaking, the Telugu version continues to do the heavy lifting. With no major competition in sight for the upcoming weekend, Peddi is expected to further consolidate its position in the all-time charts.
