Vijay Deverakonda's latest release, 'Family Star,' has had a disastrous start at the box office. The film's day-one collections were underwhelming, with minimal occupancy, especially during the night shows in Hyderabad. Shockingly, this trend persisted on day two as well.

On its second day, 'Family Star' managed to gross only 80 lakhs in the Nizam region. Competing film 'Tillu Square' pulled in 90 lakhs on its ninth day in the same region. This comparison highlights the lackluster performance of 'Family Star' in the Telangana market. Tillu Square on the other hand has gained an advantage with increased weekend occupancy due to its stronger showing compared to Family Star.

As the week begins, the prospects for the Vijay Deverakonda starrer look increasingly bleak. Producer Dil Raju has been making efforts to maintain visibility, even taking on the role of a TV reporter to gather audience feedback at a local Hyderabad theater. However, these attempts have failed to salvage the film.

The film's outdated narration by director Parasuram, despite featuring stars like Vijay Deverakonda and Mrunal Thakur has led to its rejection by the audience. Fans have expressed disappointment over Deverakonda's decision to accept such an outdated storyline.

The failure of 'Family Star' has significantly impacted Vijay Deverakonda's market standing. With back-to-back flops after 'Liger' and now 'Family Star', the actor's quest for a major hit continues. All his hopes are now pinned on his upcoming cop drama directed by Gautam Tinnanuri.
