Venkatesh Daggubati’s latest release, Aadarsha Kutumbam, was a much-hyped film. The film, directed by Trivikram Srinivas, reunited the actor and director after two decades. Naturally, there was much hype around the film’s release. However, the hype did not translate into stellar advance collections for the film. The film also received mixed word-of-mouth on its release day.

Venkatesh Daggubati marks his first release of 2026 with a film by Trivikram Srinivas. He was earlier seen in an extended cameo in Chiranjeevi’s Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu. His latest release has opened on par with Vijay Deverakonda’s latest, Ranabaali.

How Much Did Aadarsha Kutumbam Earn At The Box Office In 1 Day?

The film was expected to have a massive opening, considering the actor-director combination. However, the film has settled for a single-digit opening in India. The film earned 9.5 crore net in India, translating to 11.21 crore gross. Overseas, the film grossed 5.5 crore, bringing its worldwide total to 16.71 crore.

Earns Way Less Than Sankranthiki Vasthunam

Venkatesh Daggubati‘s last big release was Sankranthiki Vasthunam in 2025. The film had a strong opening of 23 crore net in India. His latest release is nowhere close to the benchmark set by the film. In fact, it has earned 58% less than Anil Ravipudi’s directorial on its opening day. It is also the second-lowest opening for the actor post-COVID.
