Before the close of second week, Srikanth has now crossed the Rs. 30 crores mark. This could well have been the lifetime number for the film and that too would have been considered good enough given the genre, subject and target audience. However, it has done well enough to reach this far already and with at least Rs. 15 crores more set to come in, Srikanth is going to end up with more than just a respectable score but rather emerge as quite healthy.
This is happening because of super stability that the film has been demonstrating ever since its release and in the process turning out to be an affair that’s not just relegated to weekend audiences but even weekday footfalls. Also, it’s a very consistent run as well due to which even though the day on day collections are in that Rs. 1-1.50 crores zone, the incremental progress has been good enough to allow the film jump from Rs. 10 to 20 to 30 crores in a good time.
Currently, the Rajkummar Rao starrer stands at Rs. 30.55 crores and by the close of the third weekend it would be just a couple of crores short of the Rs. 40 crores mark. So far, the trending is giving all the indications of a possible Rs. 50 crores lifetime and once that turns out to be the case, Srikanth will get classified as a straight forward hit.
