Sai Dharam Tej and Samyuktha Menon's supernatural-horror-thriller Virupaksha, directed by Karthik Varma Dandu, is doing incredible business at the box office worldwide. It has already crossed the breakeven number everywhere and is heading towards a blockbuster verdict. The worldwide gross has crossed Rs 50 crores already and it is heading towards a number of over Rs 75 crores. The rejection of its new Telugu movie rival, Agent, has helped in a relatively stronger second week hold.

 

Virupaksha Still Has A Lot Of Business Left In It

The second weekend numbers will be added to the total after the second weekend. The big news is that the hold is strong and it still has a lot of business left in it. Virupaksha's early breakeven is a very good sign as films these days, generally find it hard to even come close to the vicinity of its breakeven.
