By: Priya Chowdhary Nuthalapti | 7 Sept 2026 3:27 PM ISTAllari Naresh is slowly finding his way back to the comedy zone that made him popular with Telugu audiences. His latest film, Ramba Oorvasi Menaka, has started its theatrical journey with decent numbers. The fantasy comedy entertainer has collected more than Rs 4.40 crore gross worldwide in its first three days, according to the makers.
The film may have received mixed opinions from audiences, but its box office performance during the opening weekend has remained steady. The team is also happy with the response coming from theatres, especially in B and C centres.
One of the main reasons behind this response appears to be the comedy. Many viewers who watched the film are reportedly enjoying Allari Naresh’s comic performance. Word of mouth is slowly helping the movie, and this could become important in the coming days.
For several years, Allari Naresh was known mainly for comedy films. His unique expressions, timing and funny characters made him a familiar name among family audiences. Later, the actor moved towards serious and performance-based films. With Ramba Oorvasi Menaka, he has once again entered the comedy and fantasy space.
The movie is not completely dependent on comedy. It also has an emotional side, with the relationship between a mother and her son playing an important role in the story. This emotional element gives the film another layer apart from the fun and fantasy portions.
The first three days have given the film a positive start from a collection point of view. However, the real test begins from Monday. If the movie can maintain reasonable occupancy during the weekdays, it could improve its overall theatrical run.
The makers are now hoping that positive word of mouth will bring more audiences to theatres. If the comedy continues to connect with viewers, the film has a chance to maintain its momentum in the second week as well.
For Allari Naresh, the early response to Ramba Oorvasi Menaka is encouraging. After trying different types of stories in recent years, his return to a full-fledged entertainer seems to be getting attention from his core audience.
