Yesterday, on day 8, Thandel earned 2.15 crores, which was a negligible drop compared to day 7’s 2.25 crores. Including it, the total collection stands at 51.55 crore net at the Indian box office, as per Sacnilk.

With 51.55 crores coming in 8 days, Thandel has managed to surpass Bangarraju’s domestic lifetime collection (49.61 crore net). With this, it has become Naga Chaitanya’s highest-grossing film and the actor’s first film to hit the 50-crore milestone in net collection.
The Naga Chaitanya and Sai Pallavi starrer is reportedly made at a budget of 75 crores. Against this cost, it has earned 51.55 crores, meaning the film needs 23.45 crores more to enter the safe zone at the Indian box office. The film is expected to do decent business this weekend, but on weekdays, it might struggle to maintain the pace.
