Vijay Deverakonda's "Kingdom" Faces Steep Box Office Challenge to Succeed
27 Jul
Summary
- Vijay Deverakonda's last successful film was in 2018, with his recent releases failing at the box office.
- "Kingdom" was made on a massive budget of 130 crores, which it needs to recoup to be considered a success.
- The film's performance is crucial for Vijay Deverakonda's comeback.
Vijay Deverakonda, a prominent Indian actor, is facing a crucial test with his upcoming film "Kingdom." The actor has been struggling to regain his form since his last successful outing in 2018 with "Taxiwaala." Since then, none of Deverakonda's films, including "Dear Comrade," "World Famous Lover," "Liger," "Kushi," and "The Family Star," have managed to perform well at the Indian box office.
Against this backdrop, "Kingdom" carries significant importance for Deverakonda. The film has made a good first impression and is seen as having immense potential. However, the movie's massive budget of 130 crores means it needs to deliver a strong box office performance to be considered a success.
To recoup its investment and secure a success tag, "Kingdom" must earn at least 130 crore net at the Indian box office. This target is nearly 48% higher than Deverakonda's highest-grossing film, "Geetha Govindam," which earned around 88 crore net. While the goal may seem challenging, the film's positive early reception suggests it could potentially achieve this milestone if it receives favorable word-of-mouth.
