Sharing the news that Lenin has grossed Rs 61 Cr worldwide on the first weekend, producer S Naga Vamsi today informed the audience that every single stakeholder associated with the project has started making profits. "Our distributors and exhibitors have recovered their investments already," he wrote.
He began by talking about ticket pricing. Responsible pricing, the Sithara Entertainments chief wrote, was a collective decision by Akkineni Nagarjuna and him. "We were both clear that the distributors and exhibitors who believed in Lenin should be in a position to celebrate its success from the very first weekend. That shared conviction guided every discussion and every decision we took," he further wrote. The pricing strategy has paid off. The film is running to "packed houses and Housefull boards across theatres".
"For us, this is what success truly means, not just numbers, but shared happiness. A film succeeds only when everyone in its journey succeeds together," Naga Vamsi wrote.
"What a way to end the first weekend. The audience embraced it. The box office celebrated it," the makers stated online.
Meanwhile, the film has received a thumbs-up from Megastar Chiranjeevi. "Akhil is very dear to me, like another son and it’s a joy to see him grow with every film," he wrote on X.
Lenin co-stars Bhagyashri Borse, Pramod Panju, Sivaji, Brahmaji and Eswari Rao. Its music is composed by S Thaman.
