Telugu film "Uyyala Jampala" has taken a good opening at the Andhra Pradesh box office.

The film, which released on 25 December, has received positive response from critics as well as audiences.

The romantic entertainer took a fantastic start on the first day of its release, thanks to positive pre-release buzz and the film's promotional activities. Since "Uyyala Jampala" released on a holiday, it also considerably helped the film to earn decent collections.

Despite facing strong competition from new Telugu release "D for Dopidi" and Aamir Khan's "Dhoom 3", "Uyyala Jampala" managed to sustain its business at the box office. The film has taken a rollicking start in "A" centres and multiplexes. According to Andhraboxoffice, the evening shows of "Uyyala Jampala" ran in fully packed theatres. However, details about the film's first day collections are yet to be made available.

"Uyyala Jampala" is made on a small budget and the film is expected to garner good profits at the box office. With no big releases for another few days, the romantic film is likely to have a good run at the box office. Positive word of mouth might help the film to rake in decent collections.

Directed by debutant Virinchi Varma, "Uyyala Jampala" is a cute love story set in a village backdrop. The film has newcomers Raj Tarun and Avika Gor (who played Anandi in "Chinnari Pellikooturu" TV serial) as the main leads. The film also has Punarnavi and Peela Gangadhar in supporting roles. Critics have appreciated the performances of the lead actors as well as the technical aspects of the film.

While the film is produced by Akkineni Nagarjuna, Ram Mohan and Daggubati Suresh Babu, its cinematography is handled by Vishwa D.B. and editing is done by Marthand K. Venkatesh.
