Telugu film Lenin is performing well at the box office. The Akhil Akkineni starrer opened with Rs. 7.50 crore and went on to collect Rs. 27.50 crore in its opening weekend. It remained strong on weekdays too, with Rs. 11.75 crore coming from Monday to Wednesday. This took its 6-day theatrical cume to Rs. 39.25 crore gross at the Indian box office. 

Lenin is looking to close its first week around Rs. 41.50 crore or so. Given the strong trends on weekdays, the movie emerged as a Clean Hit venture at the box office. Interestingly, Lenin emerged as Akhil Akkineni's first HIT film in his 11-year-long career.
