(Picture Courtesy: Facebook) Pawan Kalyan 's much-anticipated period film 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu – Part 1: Sword vs Spirit' finally arrived in cinemas, and as expected, the film opened to a powerful box office debut. Despite its long delays and production hurdles, the film saw massive turnout, especially in the Telugu states. Early estimates from Sacnilk suggest that the film collected Rs 31.50 crore on Day 1 (Thursday) in India across all languages, adding to the Rs 12.7 crore it had already grossed in paid premieres a day prior. This brings its total collection to Rs 44.20 crore which is a solid start by any measure. Hari Hara Veera Mallu Movie Review Occupancy reflects mixed momentum Reportedly, the Telugu version recorded a strong average occupancy of 57.39% on its opening day. Regions like Hyderabad (66.75%) and Vijayawada (77%) showed consistent footfalls throughout the day. Morning shows across most Telugu-speaking areas witnessed a sharp start.

While the box office numbers are impressive, the mixed reception might affect the film's trajectory in the coming days. Initial reviews have praised Pawan Kalyan's presence and the scale of the production. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Access all TV channels anywhere, anytime Techno Mag Learn More Undo Mixed reviews raised concerns about pacing and visual effects. ETimes gave the film a rating of 2.5 stars out of 5 and our review reads, "Hari Hara Veera Mallu might appeal to Pawan Kalyan's core fanbase and those drawn to visually grand period dramas with action and mythic flair. For most viewers, however, it may feel like a missed opportunity — a film rich in ambition but short on cohesion. Hari Hara Veera Mallu: Part 1 – Sword vs Spirit rides on Pawan Kalyan's charisma and MM Keeravaani's compelling score, but falters in storytelling, visual polish, and emotional depth. It is an ambitious spectacle that only occasionally lives up to its potential." With a runtime nearing three hours and expectations sky-high, it remains to be seen whether 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu' can maintain its momentum beyond the opening weekend. The film also has Nidhhi Agerwal, Bobby Deol, Nargis Fakhri, Nora Fatehi, and others in pivotal roles.
