Early estimates indicate that Godfather nearly earned Rs 10 crore on Day 3, bringing its total to a respectable Rs 80 crore.
Chiranjeevi plays the title character in the blockbuster hit Godfather, which has been a box office success. The movie has already surpassed the Rs. 50 crore mark in just two days and now it is all set to collect Rs 100 crore soon.
According to India Today, if the Andhra Pradesh and Telangana trade is taken into account, early estimates indicate that Godfather nearly earned Rs. 10 crore on Day 3, bringing its total to a respectable Rs. 80 crore and above. The film has already made Rs 69.12 crore in two days worldwide. The Chiranjeevi-starrer is getting closer to a weekend gross of Rs. 100 crore. In the movie Salman Khan and Chiranjeevi can be seen sharing screen space.
The film has received positive responses from the masses, and some of Chiru's die-hard fans even called it 'better' than Mohanlal's Lucifer. Salman Khan, who appeared in GodFather for a significant portion of the movie, has released a video on his Instagram account congratulating Chiranjeevi on the movie. Salman began the video by saying, "My dear Chiru Garu, I love you." "I heard that GodFather is doing really well, congrats god bless you. You know why Chiru Garu kyunki iss desh aur iss desh ki janta mai hai bada dum. Vande Mataram."
South superstar Chiranjeevi's GodFather, the Telugu remake of the Malayalam film Lucifer starring Mohanlal in the lead role, and Akkineni Nagarjuna's The Ghost have had a big box office clash as the two films released in the theatres on the same day i.e October 5. The Ghost also stars Sonal Chauhan in the female lead.
Chiranjeevi has said that there's no competition with Nagarjuna. He also mentioned that both their films are unique. Sharing his thoughts on the box office clash with Nagarjuna's action-thriller The Ghost, Chiranjeevi told News18, "There is no competition with Nagarjuna. Both the films are unique and we are trying to showcase our talent in it and prove ourselves." Chiranjeevi's GodFather is directed by Mohan Raja while The Ghost starring Nagarjuna is helmed by Praveen Sattaru.
