The business of Tollywood movies has been experiencing a remarkable increase with each passing year. In the past, the movie business often ranged between 60 to 70 crore rupees. However, the release of the Baahubali series has significantly boosted the Telugu cinema market, leading to a tremendous expansion. As a result, Telugu movies are now doing fantastic business not just in India, but all over the world.

The Baahubali series, directed by S.S. Rajamouli, set a new benchmark for Indian cinema with its unprecedented box office success and global appeal. This success has opened up new markets and opportunities for Telugu filmmakers, allowing them to reach a wider audience. The impact of Baahubali has been so profound that it has changed the landscape of Tollywood, leading to increased investments in movie production, higher production values, and more ambitious projects.

Following in the footsteps of Baahubali, many other Telugu films have also achieved significant box office success internationally. The growing popularity of Tollywood films can be attributed to their high-quality storytelling, engaging content, and the global reach facilitated by digital platforms. Now, Kalki 2898 AD, which is all set to hit the theatres on June 27, 2024, has set a new benchmark by grossing in over Rs 400 crore at the global box office.
