Agent box office collection Day 1: Akhil Akkineni’s film fails to impress on its opening day with Rs 7 cr gross worldwide – Times of India

The highly anticipated spy action-thriller, “Agent,” opened on a disastrous note, grossing an estimated Rs 7 crores worldwide on its first day. This is a significant setback for the producers, who sold the entire Andhra Pradesh and Telangana region rights months ago and are now forced to release the film at a deficit due to over budgeting.
The film was made on a budget of nearly Rs 80 crore, and the poor opening day collections have raised concerns about the film’s ability to recover its costs. The coming weekend will be critical for “Agent,” as it will determine whether the film can sustain the box office test.

Despite the film’s star-studded cast, including Akhil Akkineni, Mammootty, Dino Morea, Sakshi Vaidya, and Vikramjeet Virk, the film failed to attract audiences in significant numbers. The lackluster performance was not limited to India alone, as the USA premieres and day one collections were also disappointing, with estimated figures of $150K. Based on the current trend, “Agent” is heading towards a 70% loss in the USA territory.
The film’s director, Surender Reddy, and writer, Vakkantham Vamsi, had created high expectations with their previous works, which include blockbuster hits such as “Dhruva” and “Temper.” However, “Agent” failed to meet those expectations, leaving fans and critics disappointed.

The film’s plot revolves around Akhil Akkineni, who plays a spy on a mission to save the country from a deadly terrorist attack. The film’s trailer promised high-octane action sequences, but the film failed to deliver on that promise.

All in all, the poor opening day collections of “Agent” have set the alarm bells ringing for the producers and the film’s cast and crew. It remains to be seen whether the film can recover from this setback and prove to be a hit at the box office.
