Marco is one of the biggest hits in Malayalam cinema and stunned audiences with its brutal action sequences. The Unni Mukundan starrer is now streaming on SonyLIV in Telugu. We at OTTplay have already revealed that, in addition to SonyLIV, Marco will also stream in Telugu on Aha starting February 21, 2025.
Marco closing collections in Telugu
Since Aha is a popular platform among Telugu audiences, Marco's Telugu OTT release is highly anticipated. The action drama was also released theatrically in Telugu on a wide scale. As we approach the film's Telugu release on Aha, let’s take a look at how much Marco earned in the Telugu states.
According to the latest update, Marco grossed ₹5.7 crore (net) in the Telugu states by the end of its theatrical run. These are impressive numbers, considering Unni Mukundan does not have a strong market in the region. The film’s success was purely driven by word of mouth, particularly among the younger audience and mass-action lovers.
One trade expert believes that if the makers had promoted Marco more aggressively in Telugu, the collections could have been even higher. However, the distributors who acquired the rights still managed to break even and secure profits.

Marco will stream on Aha in Telugu
On the other hand, Aha has invested a decent amount to acquire the digital rights of Marco. The last time Aha bagged the OTT rights for Premalu, it worked wonders for the platform. Now that they have secured Marco, it remains to be seen how well the film performs among Telugu audiences.
Given the Telugu audience’s strong affinity for mass action films, Marco is expected to gain even more traction on Aha. The noted platform has been extensively promoting the film over the past few days. We’ll have to wait and see what kind of numbers Marco achieves on Aha. Stay tuned for more updates!
