Vijay Deverakonda and Samantha starrer 'Kushi' exceeds expectations at the box office

HYDERABAD: Vijay Deverakonda and Samantha starrer Kushi has brought a sigh of relief to both the actors. Many speculated that their careers might be in jeopardy. Furthermore, "Kushi" was directed by Shiva Nirvana, whose previous film received mixed reviews. However, "Kushi" is a silver lining in this scenario.

The film's performance at the box office has instilled confidence in Vijay Deverakonda. Notably, it has performed exceptionally well in the United States and other international markets, grossing an impressive $1.4 million in its opening weekend.

This achievement ranks "Kushi" as the third-best Telugu film opening weekend of the year. While the film's collections in Andhra Pradesh may not have been outstanding, it still managed to collect significant numbers in Nizam. "Kushi" also found a receptive audience in some areas of Tamil Nadu, adding to its overall success.

For Vijay Deverakonda and Samantha, who were in dire need of a hit, this film's success is undoubtedly a huge relief and a positive turn of events in their careers. Even for director Shiva Nirvana and music director Hesham Andul Wahab are also hoping that Kushi would turn out to be a game changer for both of them.
