Akhil Akkineni's recent Telugu film, Lenin, is performing strongly at the box office and is nearing its breakeven point. As of its eleventh day, the film had amassed a net collection of ₹44.65 crore in India, with its gross collection reaching ₹52.69 crore.
During its second week, Lenin maintained a daily collection exceeding ₹1 crore. On its second Monday, the film earned ₹1.05 crore, a slight decrease from the ₹1.65 crore collected on its second Friday. The film experienced an 18% occupancy across 1,790 shows on Monday.
Directed by Murali Kishore Abburu, Lenin was produced with a budget of ₹50 crore. The film is expected to achieve profitability by the end of its second week. However, its box office performance might be impacted by the release of Jana Nayagan on Thursday, which is anticipated to draw significant audiences and potentially reduce Lenin's screen availability.
The movie, released on July 10, is an action drama set in Rayalaseema. It explores intense family and political conflicts, drawing thematic elements from the Mahabharata and Ramayana, with a cultural festival, Bharatham Mitta, serving as a key narrative backdrop.
