Our Review
Jinn unleashes a supernatural thriller where a man grapples with ancient spirits from jinn lore, directed by Chinmay Ram, starring Prakash Thuminad as the tormented lead, with Bala Rajwadi and Ravi Bhat adding intense support in a tale of horror and mystery.
The story builds eerie tension through cultural myths and modern fears, akin to Virupaksha’s chills but focused on jinn possession. Visuals create haunting atmospheres, and the score amplifies scares, though familiar tropes and slow build-up in the first half limit impact. Compared to Karthikeya 2’s enigma, Jinn prioritizes psychological dread, appealing to horror fans despite clichéd resolutions.
Box office opened modestly at ₹0.02 crore India gross on Day 1 amid low buzz and competition from Avatar: Fire and Ash, with occupancy around 10-15% in Telugu theaters, mornings at 5-10% and evenings 15-20%, per limited reports and social media chatter praising scares but noting routine plot.
Lifetime projections hover at ₹1-2 crore on ₹10 crore budget, risking flop unless word-of-mouth grows during holidays; similar to small horrors like Agent that struggled without mass draw. Jinn’s timeless pull lies in delving into folklore and human vulnerability, like Arundhati classics, with rewatch value for atmospheric thrills and cultural insights inspiring more myth-based tales in Tollywood.
Against 2025 giants like Dhurandhar, it stands as a niche fright for reflective viewers, proving budget scares engage despite flaws, enriching Telugu cinema’s genre diversity beyond spectacles.
