The Telugu box office is witnessing an interesting trend. New releases usually enjoy the biggest rush during their opening weekend, but this time, Maa Inti Bangaaram is continuing to dominate despite being in its third week.
Released on June 19, 2026, the Samantha Ruth Prabhu starrer has completed 17 days in theatres. Even now, it registered 34.81K BookMyShow ticket bookings in the last 24 hours and is closing in on the Rs. 100 crore worldwide gross milestone, underlining its exceptional theatrical run.
In comparison, Rao Bahadur, which arrived in cinemas on July 3, 2026, is just three days old. Despite being in its opening weekend, the Satyadev starrer recorded 22.74K BookMyShow bookings in the last 24 hours. The film reportedly grossed more than Rs. 8.5 crore worldwide so far.
BookMyShow bookings are not the complete measure of box office performance, but they do reflect audience interest. Going by the current numbers, Maa Inti Bangaaram is comfortably outperforming Rao Bahadur. For a film in its third week to attract more ticket bookings than a new release is a rare feat and speaks volumes about its strong momentum.
