Two anticipated Telugu films, #Single and Subham, hit theaters on May 9, 2025. Both have kicked off with promising performances at the box office and enthusiastic feedback from audiences.
The clash between #Single, a comedy starring Sree Vishnu, and Subham, a horror-comedy produced by Samantha Ruth Prabhu under her Tralala Moving Pictures banner, has generated significant buzz.
According to early reports, #Single led the box office race in select regions. #Single, directed by Caarthick Raju and featuring Sree Vishnu alongside Ketika Sharma and Ivana, has been praised for its high-energy comedy and Sree Vishnu’s charismatic performance. The film revolves around a quirky premise that resonated with audiences seeking lighthearted entertainment.
Subham, directed by Praveen Kandregula and starring Harshith Reddy, Gavireddy Srinivas, and Charan Peri, has been lauded as a “summer family entertainer” for its unique blend of horror, comedy, and social satire. The film, set in Bheemili in 2004, uses a fictional TV serial, Janma Janmala Bandham, to weave a narrative about gender dynamics and TV addiction.
At box box-office, #Single slightly edging out Subham in urban centers due to its star power. Subham’s appeal as a family-friendly film has drawn audiences to multiplexes, bolstered by Samantha’s promotional push and the film’s relatable premise.
The opening day performance sets a positive tone for both #Single and Subham, with word-of-mouth expected to drive weekend collections.
