Nandamuri Balakrishna, the eminent Telugu actor, has once again displayed his prowess as his action-packed drama film, Veera Simha Reddy, attains remarkable milestones at the box office. Despite initial mixed reviews, the movie has surged to become one of Balakrishna’s highest-grossing films, leaving an indelible mark on the audience. In a spectacular feat, Veera Simha Reddy has set a new record by consecutively running for an astounding 200 days in a single theatre.

The extended theatrical journey of Veera Simha Reddy culminates at the prestigious Sri Lakshmi Narasimha Theatre in Kurnool, Andhra Pradesh. Directed by Gopichand Malineni and produced by the renowned Mythri Movie Makers, the film stars Nandamuri Balakrishna alongside the talented Shruti Haasan, the versatile Varalaxmi Sarathkumar, the charming Honey Rose, and the dynamic Duniya Vijay in pivotal roles. The captivating film score and soundtrack, skillfully crafted by the musical maestro Thaman S, add to its overall charm and appeal.

Balakrishna’s films have established a stronghold in specific regions of Andhra Pradesh, particularly in the districts of Kadapa and Kurnool. One of his previous movies, Legend, a remarkable collaboration with the visionary director Boyapati Srinu, enjoyed an exceptional run, captivating audiences in the heartlands of Kadapa and Kurnool for over 400 days. In a groundbreaking achievement, Legend continued its triumphant streak for an astonishing 1000 days at a centre in Kadapa, setting a record that remains unparalleled in the South film industry.

Adding yet another illustrious milestone to his illustrious career, Balakrishna’s movie Akhanda is all set to celebrate its 100-day mark at Emmiganoor. Balakrishna’s films have earned a remarkable reputation by running for 100 days with 4 shows continuously in this particular centre, solidifying an unmatched achievement in the industry. The enduring popularity and longevity of his movies in these regions have significantly impacted the box office collections, establishing Balakrishna as a force to be reckoned with in the Telugu film industry.

The filming of Veera Simha Reddy commenced in February 2022 and concluded in December of the same year. The movie graced the silver screens on January 12, coinciding with the auspicious Sankranthi festival. Despite facing mixed critical responses, the movie defied expectations and emerged as a box office success, grossing an impressive Rs 133 crore worldwide. Following its triumphant theatrical run, Veera Simha Reddy made its way to the popular OTT platform Disney Plus Hotstar on February 23, featuring versions in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada. Reports suggest that even on the digital platform, the movie continued to break records, further solidifying its triumphant journey.

Nandamuri Balakrishna’s Veera Simha Reddy stands as a testament to the actor’s immense popularity and dedicated fanbase. The film’s exceptional 200-day run at a single theatre is a rare accomplishment in today’s fast-paced cinema landscape. With its power-packed action sequences and enthralling performances, Veera Simha Reddy has etched itself in the annals of Telugu cinema history as a true box office gem.
