Nandamuri Balakrishna's Dictator had completed its first week at the box office. The movie had a decent outing despite the poor talk and reviews it carried. Festival advantage helped the movie big time especially in B,C centers. However the movie had a disappointing outing in Nizam where Balayya is weak traditionally.
The movie is a disaster in Overseas getting Zero share there. The movie has to collect 27 Crore share in its full run to garner the HIT status. Dictator is the prestigious 99th film in the actor's career and his first release after becoming an MLA. But the talk and reviews of the film are not that great. Here is the breakup of Dictator First Weekend Collections:
| Nizam | 3.45 Crore |
