The weekend of Valentine's Day and Maha Shivaratri has been a mixed bag at the Telugu box office. Couple Friendly, one of the films that was released this week, has been able to stay in business, while the other films that have been released are trying to make it work at the box office.

On its first day, Couple Friendly, which stars Santosh Sobhan and Manasa Varanasi, made roughly Rs 1.89 crore at the box office. As the day went on, the film saw more footfall in the theaters.

The young audience seems to have really liked the movie's love tale and the actors' performances. The movie went well on Sunday as well, but it needs to keep up the good work all week to become a hit.

On the other hand, Vishwak Sen's Funky was the biggest surprise of the weekend. As expected, the movie didn't do well at the box office, and reports claim that people didn't like the movie.

Arjun Sarja's first directorial, Seetha Payanam also didn't do better. It was hard for the movie to get people to go to the theaters, and some showings were canceled because there weren't enough people present. Another movie, Nilave, likewise didn't do well at the box office.

Overall, Couple Friendly provided Telugu films a little hope over the holiday weekend, but the other movies that came out made the holiday season generally disappointing.

Ashwin Chandrasekhar directed the movie. One of the main reasons why the movie got off to a good start was the relatable story, the light-hearted romance, and the performances of the lead actors.

Couple Friendly is likely to do well at the box office thanks to good reviews. People will be keeping a close eye on how well the movie does over the weekend to see if it can stay at the box office.
