Thella Kaagitham has stormed the weekend box office, emerging as the lone bright spot in a crowded and underwhelming slate. The film, starring Harsh Roshan in his first lead role since his courtroom fame, pulled off a quiet but decisive win over a batch of high-profile releases that flopped hard.
It’s not just a win — it’s a survival story in a weekend where most films were left gasping for attention. Don’t Trouble The Trouble, Karthikeya Rajamouli’s debut production, was supposed to be the big moment. Instead, it became the biggest letdown. Audiences didn’t show up.
Word of mouth from early screenings was so bad it’s already being called a ‘big embarrassment’ by insiders. No surprise then that it failed to register beyond the opening day. Sundeep Kishan’s Sigma, directed by Jason Vijay, also stumbled out of the gate. Despite its star power and the buzz around its director, it couldn’t hold momentum.
