Mirai has closed its box office run, with just under Rs. 10 lakh coming in yesterday on its fourth Thursday. The fourth week amounted to Rs. 2.40 crore, pretty much all of that coming from the weekend as the business fell sharply on Monday. The digital premiere today marks the formal end of its run.

The Teja Sajja starrer has grossed Rs. 102.50 crore in India, and another Rs. 33.75 crore (USD 3.81 million) came from the overseas market. That adds to a worldwide box office gross of Rs. 136.25 crore for the film, making it the second biggest grosser for Teja, just behind his previous film, Hanu-Man, which grossed nearly Rs. 300 crore worldwide.

From the start, the film had, it seemed like it would score higher than it has, but the business slipped in the weekdays. It did stabilise a bit in the second weekend, and after that it sustained well, benefiting from the Dusshera holiday period. The third week collected a pretty solid Rs. 8 crore, despite competition from They Call Him OG. 

Mirai overindexed in the bigger centres, which is generally the case with Tier 2 star films. Accordingly, Nizam came up with the best numbers at nearly Rs. 35 crore gross, making almost half of the Telugu states. Karnataka, which is essentially Bengaluru city, crossed Rs. 10 crore. Bigger centre films also generally outperform overseas, which was the case here as well, with the United States earning a fantastic USD 3 million.

There was a Hindi-dubbed version of the film as well. Since Hanu-Man was a sort of mini-breakout that collected over Rs. 50 crore nett, which led to some expectations from the film. They didn’t materialise, but eventually it did quite decently for a film with no face value and of course, the gross numbers of Hindi, even though not much, gave it bragging rights for 100cr grosser in India.

The Territorial Breakdown for Mirai is as follows:

Prabhas’ much-awaited film with Sita Ramam director Hanu Raghavapudi is making headlines for its release date. Rumored to be titled Fauji, the big-scale film is set in the pre-independence era. While the makers have kept all the major details under wraps, it is reported that Fauji is eyeing a theatrical release on the Independence Day Weekend 2026. According to the latest reports, the Prabhas-Hanu Raghavapudi film is slated to release on Friday, August 14, 2026. However, an official confirmation on the same is still awaited. 

Prabhas has 35 more days to shoot for the Hanu Raghavapudi film 

The period drama is reportedly deep into production, with approximately 60 percent of the shoot already completed. Production is moving steadily toward completion, and Prabhas has wrapped most of his parts. He only has 35 days of shooting remaining before his entire schedule is complete.

The movie marks the acting debut of Imanvi as the female lead opposite the Baahubali actor. The supporting cast also includes some of the prominent names of the Hindi film industry- Mithun Chakraborty, Jayaprada, Anupam Kher, and others. As per a report in Times of India, Disha Patani is also considered for a crucial role in Fauji, who previously worked with Prabhas in Kalki 2898 AD. 

Fauji to be made on a massive budget of Rs 400 crore

Fauji is mounted on a massive budget of Rs 400 crore, as per Telugu 360. Mythri Movie Makers, which is best known for the Pushpa franchise, is backing the project. Vishal Chandrashekhar of Sita Ramam fame is serving as the music composer. While the project is currently under production, the makers are also seeing the possibility of turning it into a franchise by exploring its prequel. However, it’s a very early thought and will become a reality if the upcoming movie strikes the right chord with the audience in cinemas.

Before Fauji, Prabhas will be seen in Maruthi-directed The Raja Saab, scheduled for Sankranthi 2026 release. Interestingly, Prabhas has no release this year. He is about to kickstart the shoot of Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Spirit soon. The Telugu superstar also has Kalki 2898 AD sequel, Salaar 2, and a film with Prasanth Varma in the pipeline.
