"Irumudi," starring Ravi Teja, has emerged as a significant box office success, receiving unanimous positive feedback from audiences in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. The film centers on Ravi Teja's portrayal of a middle-aged father's unwavering efforts to protect his daughter, a narrative that has deeply connected with family viewers. This critical acclaim and audience reception have translated into impressive financial returns, with the movie grossing Rs 24.20 crore worldwide on its opening day.

This box office triumph offers considerable relief to Ravi Teja, who had faced a string of previous underperformers. The film's India gross collection stood at Rs 17.20 crores from approximately 2,673 shows, supplemented by Rs 7 crore from overseas markets. With a reported 90% positive feedback, "Irumudi" is considered a clean blockbuster, benefiting further from positive word-of-mouth spreading across the Telugu states.

The film's release coincided with the Varalakshmi Shrukravaram holiday, and subsequent holidays, including Milad-un-Nabi, are expected to further enhance its collections. The captivating "Mallepoola Pallaki..." song and the powerful father-daughter emotional bond, complemented by SS Thaman's impactful background score, have contributed to the movie's widespread appeal.

Audiences have shown immense enthusiasm, with some theaters experiencing scenes of devotees offering prayers to Swamy Ayyappa within the cinema halls, and viewers actively participating with cheers and whistles. "Irumudi" is now poised to reach the Rs 100 crore mark soon, solidifying its status as a major hit.
