Box office: Acharya grosses Rs73 crore in three days worldwide, dubbed 'double disaster'

Acharya, which was released amid very high expectations, has turned out to be a disaster at the ticket window, according to trade sources. 

The Koratala Siva film, which brought together Chiranjeevi and Ram Charan together for the first time, managed to gross just Rs73 crore worldwide from the first three days of its release. 

The portal AndhraBoxoffice has adjudged Acharya a ‘double disaster’. 

The film was reportedly made on a budget of Rs140 crore.

In another tweet, AndhraBoxoffice wrote, "Acharya is literally dead at the box office on its 1st Monday. 4th day gross numbers are abysmally low and share is negligible (sic).” 

Acharya revolves around a middle-aged Maoist-turned-social reformer who launches a fight against the endowments department over the misappropriation and embezzlement of temple funds and donations.

Chiranjeevi had made a special appearance in Ram Charan’s Bruce Lee: The Fighter (2015).

The film, which has music by Mani Sharma, also stars Pooja Hegde, Jisshu Sengupta and Sonu Sood.

Meanwhile, Chiranjeevi is on the verge of finishing shooting for his upcoming film Godfather, a Telugu remake of the Malayalam blockbuster Lucifer (2019). The film also sees Salman Khan make a cameo. 

The makers of Godfather on Tuesday announced that they have roped in Prabhu Deva to choreograph a special number.
