The long-awaited movie “Thamma” has burst into theaters and made an enormous buzz throughout the nation, igniting the box office on its opening day. With enthusiasts flocking to cinemas in huge numbers, the film has achieved one of the highest Day 1 collections of 2025, breaking all expectations and becoming a genuine blockbuster in the making.
A Grand Opening Across India
As per initial trade projections, Thamma pocketed a whopping ₹38.6 crore on Day One, which ranks among the highest-opening regional movies of the year. The movie recorded houseful shows in big cities such as Hyderabad, Bengaluru, Chennai, and Kochi, along with a healthy turnout in northern metros.
The Thamma mania was visible right from its pre-release hype — advance tickets got snapped up in a matter of hours, and fans flooded the internet with parties outside cinemas. The grand opening of the film also happened during the festive season, which added to its box office collections.
Stellar Performances and Strong Word of Mouth
Made by Rajesh Varma, Thamma features Sai Dharam Tej and Krithi Shetty in the main cast. The film weaves strong narrative, emotion, and adrenaline-pumping action sequences, which have connected with fans. Critics and spectators alike have lauded the film’s crisp script, breathtaking visuals, and emotional intensity, terming it one of the most compelling movies to hit the screens recently.
Social networking sites are abuzz with hashtags such as #ThammaDay1Records and #ThammaStorm, with audiences applauding the movie as a “perfect blend of entertainment and emotion.” Most trade experts are betting that if this pace maintains itself, Thamma can smoothly breach the ₹100 crore mark on its opening weekend.
Smashes Regional Box Office Records
What is even more impressive about Thamma’s success is its performance overseas and locally. The movie has allegedly earned ₹45 crore worldwide on its opening day, creating a new benchmark in regional films. In the US, the first-day premiere shows for the film alone raked in more than $750,000, the highest by a non-Hindi film in early 2025.
What’s Next for Thamma
With rave reviews and overwhelming public response, trade experts believe Thamma will continue to dominate theatres over the next week. Family audiences and repeat viewers are expected to further boost collections over the weekend.
The film’s producers expressed gratitude to fans, stating,
“This success belongs to the audience. Thamma is more than a movie — it’s an emotion, and we’re thrilled to see such love pouring in.”
If the trend persists, Thamma might just turn out to be one of the largest blockbusters of 2025, showing that good storytelling and emotional performances can touch hearts beyond the boundaries of languages.
