HIT 3 is one of the biggest hits in Nani's career and impressed one and all. Thanks to Nani's craze on OTT, Netflix spent a whopping Rs 53 crore to bag the digital rights to the film. Well, the time has come for the film to stream on OTT, and Netflix revealed that HIT 3 will be available for streaming from May 29, 2025. This has brought the Jersey and Krishnarjuna Yuddham actor's film back in the news.

Now that the film is set for its digital release, let's look at how much the film made in theaters. As per the latest trade update, HIT 3 made Rs 118 crore worldwide by the end of its run. In India, it made Rs 93 crore net, which is an impressive number.

However, there are also a few areas in AP where the film did not break even. In the US, HIT 3 was a smash hit as it grossed over 2.5 million dollars. This is Nani's 11th film to cross the one million dollar mark, a record which no other Telugu hero has achieved to date.

HIT 3 is an adult film and was made for a niche audience, and that is the reason it worked well in the metros but did not perform as well in smaller towns. However, the success of the film has given Nani a new lease of life in his career.

Sailesh Kolanu, who made Saindhav with Sankranthiki Vasthunnam star Venkatesh, directed HIT 3, and he has made a strong comeback. He has now shifted his focus to HIT 4, which will have Karthi as the main lead. Karthi's look from the film was released the other day, and he is playing ACP Veerappan in the film.

HIT 3 a special film for Prateik Babbar

HIT 3 is also special as it marked the Telugu debut of Prateik Babbar of Mulk fame. He played the negative role in the film, and his performance was hugely appreciated. Siddhu Jonnalagadda's brother, Chaitu Jonnalagadda, also played a key role in the film along with Komalee Prasad.

As the film was A-certified, a section of the audience did not get to watch it. But now that HIT 3 will be out on OTT, we need to see how the family audience embraces this dark thriller.
