Bheemlanayak starring Pawan Kalyan and Rana Daggubati is releasing on 25th of February on the occasion of Mahashivratri. It is the first big budget and big star film releasing after a long gap at Telugu box office.
Hence, fans and audiences are expecting the Power Storm that the makers are promising with the film at theatres and at the box office as well. Not just the first day records, many distributors are expecting the movie to be a blockbuster.
If you look into Pawan Kalyan’s filmography, he has been giving strong comebacks after big failures. He did comeback with Gabbar Singh after facing failures like Teenmaar, Panja and Komaram Puli.
His previous films like Agnyathavaasi, Katamarayudu, Sardar Gabbar Singh did not work at the box office. He took a break to test his luck in politics but experienced failure there too. He did give a comeback with Vakeel Saab last year but audiences want to see him in a full-fledged mass film and Bheemlanayak promise exactly that.
The expectations from the movie are high as we discussed earlier and the film collected USD 350k already from pre-sales in Overseas markets. It collected USD 200k from USA only.
Looks like Pawan Kalyan is going to end the slump at the box office for Telugu Cinema with his entertainer and start a hit streak for Summer as big budget films like RadheShyam, RRR, Acharya are waiting to hit the screens during March, April months.

Faria Abdullah’s Double Release Sets Up May 1 Box Office Clash
May 1 is shaping up to be an interesting date for the Tollywood box office. Two mid-range films, Gayapadda Simham and Jetly, are set to release on the same day, creating a buzz within the industry. In recent times, it has become a noticeable trend for small and mid-budget films to clash directly during gaps between big-star releases.
What makes this clash more intriguing is Faria Abdullah having a double release on the same day—something quite rare for any actor. After gaining popularity with Jathi Ratnalu, this moment could prove crucial for her career. However, there’s an interesting twist: in Jetly, she isn’t appearing as a full-fledged on-screen lead but has only contributed as a dubbing artist. This creates a unique contrast—while one film relies on her screen presence, the other depends solely on her voice.
From a promotions standpoint, both films have taken completely different approaches. Gayapadda Simham has generated strong buzz on social media through AI-driven viral content, whereas Jetly has leaned into satirical, self-aware promotional videos to connect with younger audiences. While both strategies have gained attention, the real test will ultimately be in theatres.
For Faria, this situation is close to a “do or die” moment. Releasing two films on the same day can boost visibility, but it also carries the risk of splitting audience attention. If even one film turns out to be a success, it could give her career a significant push. However, if both fail to meet expectations, it may slow her momentum again. Moreover, since her role in Jetly is limited to dubbing, even a hit might not fully translate into recognition for her.
When it comes to content, Tollywood audiences are clear and decisive. No matter how strong the promotions are, the real verdict comes after the first show. Story, treatment, and emotional connect remain the key factors that determine a film’s success.
Overall, the May 1 box office clash is not just a battle between two films—it could mark a turning point in Faria Abdullah’s career.
