Even though early reviews from audiences have been less than enthusiastic, Hari Hara Veera Mallu , Pawan Kalyan 's long-awaited return to cinema, has made an impressive mark at the box office. According to data from box office analytics site Sacnilk, the historical action drama pulled in an astounding ₹43 crore on its debut day. The film, which faced numerous delays and production issues before its release, still managed to draw huge crowds, particularly across the Telugu-speaking regions. As per early tracking reports, the movie earned ₹31.50 crore on Thursday in India across all language versions. This amount was added to the ₹12.7 crore generated from paid preview screenings held the day before, bringing the total day-one haul to ₹44.20 crore—a substantial launch by industry standards. Strong Regional Turnout and Occupancy Patterns The Telugu version experienced robust attendance with an average occupancy rate of 57.39% on the opening day. Cities like Vijayawada and Hyderabad saw even better responses, recording viewer turnout rates of 77% and 66.75% respectively. Most morning screenings in Telugu regions kicked off with brisk footfalls, while evening and night shows continued to hold steady numbers. On the other hand, other language versions did not perform as strongly—Hindi screenings saw 12.43% occupancy, while Kannada and Tamil versions followed with 9.96% and 8.24%, respectively. A Period Adventure Packed With Twists Set during the mid-17th century, Hari Hara Veera Mallu is a sprawling period adventure helmed by director Krish Jagarlamudi and penned alongside Sai Madhav Burra. The storyline centers around Veera Mallu, a fictional bandit known for his daring and principles, portrayed by Pawan Kalyan. Joining him are Bobby Deol, Nidhhi Agerwal, Nargis Fakhri, Nora Fatehi, and Sathyaraj. The narrative begins with Veera's rebellion catching the attention of the King of Kollur. After escaping with a mysterious woman named Panchami, Veera's cleverness draws the interest of Qutub Shah, who tasks him with a perilous assignment: retrieving the legendary Koh-i-Noor diamond from Mughal ruler Aurangzeb in Delhi. But this mission holds more than just royal treasures—it unravels hidden motives, secrets from Veera's past, and the true identity of Panchami. As events unfold, deeper questions surrounding Veera's history and his connection to Aurangzeb slowly emerge, giving the film its dramatic edge.
