Analysis
Tejas has had a disappointing start at the box office, earning just ₹1.25 crore on its first day. The film’s performance has not improved much on Day 2, with a collection of ₹1.30 crore. It remains to be seen whether the film will be able to pick up steam in the coming days and weeks.
The film’s poor performance can be attributed to a number of factors, including the fact that it was released during the Diwali holiday season, when there are a number of other big-budget films competing for audiences. Additionally, the film has received mixed reviews from critics, with some praising its action sequences but others criticizing its plot and characters.
It is also worth noting that Tejas is facing stiff competition from the low-budget film 12th Fail, which has earned ₹2.50 crore in its first two days of release.
