Across the measurement window from 17 Oct to 23 Oct 2026, the six-episode series recorded 8.10 Mn unique viewers. The series released on 9 Oct 2026, so this window reflects consumption from its second week onward rather than launch. Directed by Babu Degala and led by Harsha Chemudu, the series is available on Netflix in Telugu alongside Hindi, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam versions, and also streams on ETV Win, so COTT's figures reflect Netflix consumption alone.
