Hit Fever Grips Tollywood - But Can It Last?

September turned out to be a festive season for Tollywood at the box office.

Alongside big releases like OG, a few small films also clicked, giving the industry a refreshing boost. Trade circles hoped that the same momentum would carry into October.

Just as expected, Kantara: Chapter 1 continued the wave of success.

Despite a hiccup in between with a smaller release, Rishab Shetty’s film swept audiences off their feet, giving October a grand start. Now, the big question is: which films will sustain this momentum? Readmore!

Up next is Telusu Kada, a film that has been in promotion for quite some time. With the release countdown now begun, trade analysts believe that if the content connects even slightly with audiences, the film will draw strong crowds. After all, it features Siddu Jonnalagadda, who already enjoys a strong youth following.

Also lined up is K-Ramp, starring Kiran Abbavaram. The teaser has already impressed, and after the success of his earlier film K, expectations are running high for this project. For both Siddu Jonnalagadda and Kiran Abbavaram, this month could prove to be career-defining.

Closing the month is Mass Jathara, headlined by Ravi Teja. After facing multiple delays, the film is finally set for release this time. With the Ravi Teja–Sreeleela combination at its core, the movie carries moderate but solid expectations among mass audiences.

Adding to the excitement, this month will also see the re-release of the Baahubali epic, combining Parts 1 and 2 as a special cinematic event.

With such a line-up, October promises to keep the box office buzzing — if the films manage to live up to the hype.
