Vishnu Manchu’s mythological action drama Kannappa is struggling to maintain momentum at the box office, earning an estimated ₹27 crore in its first five days. Despite a star-studded cast featuring Prabhas, Akshay Kumar, and Mohanlal, the film’s collections have dipped sharply after a strong opening weekend, raising concerns about its long-term prospects given its massive ₹200 crore budget.
 
Key Highlights:
 
Opening Surge, Rapid Decline: Kannappa opened with ₹9.35 crore on Day 1 but saw daily collections drop to ₹7.15 crore (Day 2), ₹6.9 crore (Day 3), ₹2.3 crore (Day 4), and just ₹1.46–1.75 crore on Day 5.
 
Minimal Growth: The film failed to show any significant uptick or weekend surge, with Tuesday’s numbers barely crossing ₹1.5 crore, reflecting waning audience interest.
 
Occupancy Trends: Telugu and Hindi occupancy rates hovered around 14% and 11% respectively on Day 5, indicating tepid turnout.
 
Budget Pressure: With a production cost reportedly up to ₹200 crore, Kannappa needs a theatrical share of over ₹100 crore to break even—a target now looking increasingly difficult.
 
Outlook:
Unless Kannappa sees a dramatic turnaround, its slow growth and sharp weekday declines may make it one of the year’s biggest box office disappointments, despite its grand scale and ensemble cast.
