Teja Sajja's new film, Mirai, has taken the box office by storm, crossing the ₹100 crore mark in just five days of its release. The fantasy drama has been a huge success, with a strong word of mouth prevailing and a phenomenal trend at the box office. Made on a budget of ₹50 crore, Mirai recovered its budget in just three days of release, which is a great achievement for a small film. The film's success can be attributed to Teja Sajja's unique script selection and commitment, as well as Karthik Ghattamaneni's direction and visuals.
Mirai has achieved several important milestones, including crossing the US$2 million mark in North America, making it Teja Sajja's second film to do so after HanuMan. The film held well on Tuesday, indicating a strong word of mouth, and is expected to see an increase in occupancy during the Dasara holidays. Even with OG is set to storm from September 25, Mirai is likely to continue its hold at the box office in the days to come.
The film's digital rights have been bagged by JioHotstar for ₹40 crore, and the makers are planning to delay the OTT release by a week, expecting it to be out in the last week of October 2025. Mirai is set to break many more records in the coming days, with trade analysts predicting a maddening rush at the box office. Teja Sajja has consolidated his position in Tollywood as a bankable actor, with Mirai being his second consecutive 100-crore hit.
Manchu Manoj played villain in the film while Shriya Saran, Ritika Nayak, Jagapathi Babu and Jayaram played other key roles. The film's success is a testament to the team's hard work, and it's likely to make good money in the days to come. With its strong box office performance, Mirai is shaping up to be a sensational blockbuster.
