The controversy over Daaku Maharaaj's box office results is still going strong. The Balakrishna-Bobby combination movie could not meet the high box office predictions, even though it got a respectable amount of publicity. The largest obstacle? The festival season was dominated by Sankranthiki Vastunnam, which attracted both young people and families. Daaku Maharaaj's collections suffered greatly as a result.
Producer naga Vamsi is currently being blamed by fans for making a mistake in determining the release date. Many people think the movie might have easily made over 200 crores if it had come out at a better time. They contend that it would have received a much-needed boost if it had been released in hindi and throughout india at the same time. Due to Balakrishna's political obligations, the movie's original release date of dussehra 2023 was postponed. Some, like Akhanda, believe a december release would have been preferable.
There is also a belief that since Sankranthi is a period when family entertainment is most popular, intense action movies don't fare well. Supporters wonder if naga Vamsi has now recognized her error. It may have performed better if it had been released two to three weeks before to or following the festival. The primary cause of the fans' actions is the movie's OTT performance. Daaku Maharaaj, which is available on Netflix, has surpassed other hindi films and web series to become the top non-English film.
