The Diwali weekend has brought a lot of smiles to many faces in the industry. Three films were released in Telugu during the Diwali weekend, and all of them ended up as smash hits.

First in line is Kiran Abbavaram’s KA. This period drama was produced by a young team and was released on October 31, 2024, amidst high competition from Lucky Baskhar, which also premiered on the same date. KA has ended as a hit and is already in the profit zone. Kiran Abbavaram has scored a hit after a long gap, making a solid comeback and earning good money from the film.

On the other hand, Lucky Baskhar has shocked the trade as well. The film has grossed close to 45 crore just a few days after its release and shows no signs of slowing down in the days to come. Dulquer Salmaan is now the new superstar in Telugu cinema.

Lastly, Sivakarthikeyan’s Amaran also had a low-key release in Telugu. However, due to excellent word-of-mouth, the collections have exceeded expectations. This army film is already in the safe zone and is seeing great occupancy, thanks to Sai Pallavi’s sincere performance.

Taking all these factors into consideration, Tollywood had a fantastic Diwali, with crores of money flowing into the industry. Producers are landing significant profits, and the stars are reaching new heights of stardom.
