(MENAFN- Live Mint) Thandel box office Collection Day 1 : After witnessing back-to-back box office failures, Naga Chaitanya's Telugu romantic action thriller movie Thandel, which hit the big screens on February 7, has proved to be a strong comeback for the Telugu actor.

Thandel reunited Naga Chaitanya with actress Sai Pallavi after the superhit Love Story, which was the only solo hit for the former after the COVID-19 pandemic.

According to industry tracker Sacnilk, Thandel had a strong box office opening and earned ₹10 crore on Day 1.

Of this, Naga Chaitanya -Sai Pallavi 's Telugu movie earned ₹9.8 crore in its original language. The movie also earned ₹15 lakh in Hindi and another ₹5 lakh in Tamil language.

Standing tall on high expectations, the movie created a good buzz pre-release. However, it could not become Naga Chaitanya's career-best opening. Love Story (2021) continues to be the biggest grosser for the actor, which minted around 10.50 crores gross on its first day.

Thandel also saw a 53.58% Telugu occupancy on Friday, while its Hindi occupancy was at 9.13%.
