Akhanda
2:
Thaandavam,
the
Telugu
fantasy
action
thriller
led
by
Nandamuri
Balakrishna,
has
completed
its
first
three
days
at
the
Indian
box
office
with
a
cumulative
collection
of
approximately
₹60.9
crore
(India
net),
according
to
early
estimates
from
box
office
tracking
website
Sacnilk.
The
film,
which
was
released
in
theaters
on
December
12,
2025,
is
currently
in
its
fourth
day
of
theatrical
run
as
of
December
15.
Directed

Boyapati
Sreenu,
Akhanda
2:
Thaandavam
is
the
sequel
to
the
2021
film
Akhanda
and
continues
to
explore
a
narrative
that
blends
spiritual
elements
with
contemporary
threats.
The
film
was
released
in
both
2D
and
3D
formats
across
multiple
languages,
though
its
primary
market
remains
the
Telugu-speaking
states.
The
box
office
run
began
with
paid
previews
on
Thursday,
where
the
film
earned
an
estimated
₹8
crore,
entirely
driven
by
the
Telugu
version.
On
its
official
opening
day,
Friday,
the
film
recorded
a
sharp
rise
in
collections,
earning
around
₹22.5
crore
across
all
languages.
This
strong
first
day
helped
establish
early
momentum,
particularly
in
Andhra
Pradesh
and
Telangana.
Saturday
saw
a
noticeable
drop
compared
to
Friday,
with
Day
2
collections
estimated
at
₹15.5
crore.
Despite
the
decline,
the
film
maintained
steady
footfalls
in
core
markets,
pushing
the
total
closer
to
the
₹50
crore
mark.
On
Sunday,
which
marked
Day
3
of
release,
Akhanda
2:
Thaandavam
added
an
estimated
₹14.9
crore,
based
on
early
and
rough
data.
With
this,
the
total
India
net
collection
after
three
days
stood
at
approximately
₹60.9
crore.
While
the
Telugu
version
continues
to
dominate
the
overall
figures,
the
film
has
also
seen
limited
contributions
from
Hindi,
Tamil,
Kannada,
and
Malayalam
versions.
These
markets
remain
supplementary,
accounting
for
a
relatively
small
portion
of
the
total
earnings.
Story,
Cast
And
Technical
Details
The
story
unfolds
in
the

the
first

national
crisis

bioweapon
attack
during
a
large
religious

race
to
develop
an
antidote,
a
