Sree Vishnu, known for his versatility and concept-driven films, has built a reputation as a talented and thoughtful performer.
However, in an effort to expand his reach and stand out among his contemporaries, he recently ventured into experimental cinema — a move that unfortunately backfired.
His last few films underperformed at the box office, leading to a decline in both theatrical revenue and OTT deal values. This downturn left producers of his upcoming projects anxious, particularly ahead of the release of Single.
Thankfully, Single proved to be the much-needed success. The film opened to decent collections and managed to break even across all regions in the Telugu states. It marked a strong comeback for Sree Vishnu and brought significant relief to his producers.
Currently, Sree Vishnu has three films in production. The success of Single has eased concerns for the teams behind these projects, giving them renewed confidence in their investments and better negotiating power with OTT platforms.
In today’s competitive market, streaming platforms have become increasingly cautious, offering lower prices for films featuring actors with recent box office failures.
As a result, delivering even an average grosser has become essential for maintaining momentum — and Single has done just that for Sree Vishnu.
