The recently released Telugu film Chennai Love Story has taken the box office by storm. The romantic drama was released in theatres on July 24, at a time when most filmmakers pushed their release date to make way for Jana Nayagan. Chennai Love Story had limited buzz and did not move their release date. The faith of the makers on their film has borne fruit as the film has registered an impressive opening weekend collection.
