A film that arrived without the usual star driven noise has managed to keep the box office conversation alive. Krishnavataram Part 1: Hridayam, led by Siddharth Gupta and Sanskruti Jayana, has crossed the Rs 25 crore nett mark in Hindi after 17 days in theatres, powered by a steady third weekend hold.
The mythological fantasy drama, which released on May 7, 2026, has been drawing attention for sustaining beyond its opening phase despite limited pre release awareness. Its performance is especially notable because the film found momentum after its trailer highlighted scale, devotional appeal, and visual ambition.
Krishnavataram Part 1 Hridayam Reaches Rs 25 Crore In Hindi
Krishnavataram Part 1: Hridayam added Rs 3.75 crore nett in its third weekend in Hindi. The film collected Rs 0.65 crore on its third Friday, grew to Rs 1.35 crore on Saturday, and brought in Rs 1.75 crore on Sunday.
With this, its Hindi total stands at Rs 25.25 crore nett in 17 days, including previews. The film had earlier collected Rs 11.75 crore nett in its first week and Rs 9.50 crore nett in its second week. Alongside the Hindi business, the South Indian dubbed versions have contributed another Rs 3 crore nett.
The film’s run has been low but consistent, which has helped it stay afloat in its third week. For a project mounted on a visibly ambitious canvas, the numbers remain important because the scale and visual design suggested a sizeable production spend. Still, the current hold gives the film a respectable theatrical talking point.

Siddharth Gupta Film Finds A Steady Audience
For Siddharth Gupta, Krishnavataram Part 1: Hridayam marks a significant big screen showcase. Playing Krishna in a mythological drama demands both gravitas and emotional restraint, and the film’s continued theatrical run suggests that the devotional space has connected with a section of the audience.
The coming weekdays will now decide whether the film can add meaningful strength beyond its third weekend trend. Working in its favour is the steady audience response in a genre that depends on word of mouth, repeat viewing value, and family footfalls.
