Kingdom advance bookings open: Vijay Deverakonda's film sees record ticket sale

Vijay Deverakonda channels an intense look in Kingdom

Kingdom, the most expensive movie in Vijay Deverakonda's career and a high-stakes mass entertainer, is about to be released. The actor is resolved to recover and leave a lasting impression at the box office following a run of lacklustre performances. Fans are feeling hopeful after seeing the new trailer, which many have praised for its intense tone and captivating images.

According to Filmy News Network, Kingdom has collected advance booking sales of a whopping Rs 1.75 crore gross as of 12 PM today. The film has sold almost 1.21 lakh tickets from 612 shows across Telangana. The film is notably performing well in Secunderabad with an occupancy of 40% as well as in Venkatapuram, Toopran, and Bibinagar.

Kingdom crosses 100K+ tickets on Book My Show, with the frenzy gripping fans across every corner of the country.

Vijay has adopted a refreshingly restrained approach this time around, in contrast to his prior promotional appearances, which were frequently characterised by audacious or unconventional remarks that caused unwelcome controversies. The actor's speech at the pre-release event was modest and focused, emphasising the team's hard work and his commitment to the project. On stage, he seemed cool and collected, which was a significant change from his typically vivacious and animated demeanour, according to onlookers.

According to people close to the team, Vijay is being extra careful during promotions to make sure that the focus remains on the movie and not on any casual comments. In a recent private event, he also engaged with fans, spending time with them and expressing his belief in Kingdom's abilities.

Anirudh Ravichander composed the music for Kingdom, which was directed by Gowtam Tinnanuri and starred Satyadev and Bhagyashri Borse in important roles. S. Naga Vamsi is producing the movie, which is positioned as a significant Telugu film release in terms of both scope and anticipation. Kingdom may turn out to be Vijay Deverakonda's career-defining movie as he prepares for a big comeback.
