Vijay Deverakonda delivered a massive disaster with Liger and the film is directed by Puri Jagannadh. The film is made on a budget of Rs 100 crores and the film collected a theatrical share of Rs 26.37 crores in the first week across the globe. Liger is a massive disaster all over including Hindi. The film's theatrical rights are sold for Rs 100 crores and the distributors will fail to recover even 25 percent of their investment. Liger is a bigger flop than Acharya which was a shock for Telugu cinema.

Vijay Deverakonda is trolled for overhyping the film and Puri Jagannadh is trolled for his poor writing and direction. Puri Jagannadh and Karan Johar produced Liger jointly. Vijay Deverakonda gained a chiseled look to fit as a boxer. The film is a boxing drama that also has an intense love story. Ananya Pandey played the leading lady in this sports drama. The Hindi version opened well but the poor word of mouth killed Liger completely. The film's business is closed in its first week and here are the first week's collections of Liger:
