0

War 2, NTR’s Bollywood debut, was released last week with high expectations and did not live up to the expectations. The film is having a lukewarm run at the theaters. However, NTR becomes the second hero after Prabhas to achieve a feat with War 2. 

The much-hyped spy action drama, the sequel to War, has collected around 295 Cr gross worldwide in its 1st week, which is a disappointing collection in both Telugu and Hindi.

Tollywood 300 Cr Grossers – NTR Joins Prabhas

Today the film crosses the 300 Cr gross mark worldwide, and with this, after Prabhas, NTR becomes the second hero to score a hat trick of 300 Cr grossers worldwide in Tollywood.

For War 2, the Hindi version is contributing 80% of the numbers, but the Telugu version is doing only 20% of the revenue.

Coolie Beats Vikram-Enters Top 6

0

Superstar Rajinikanth’s Coolie has collected around 430 Cr gross worldwide in its 1st week at the box office. If not for the drop in weekdays, this film could have done much better. Coolie beats Kamal Haasan’s Vikram and enters the Top 6 of Kollywood Grossers.

Directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj and starring Kamal, Vikram’s lifetime collections stand at 426 Cr. The film will next chase Vijay’s GOAT (455 Cr) and Ponniyin Selvan-1 (500 Cr) and is likely to settle at the no. 4 position after 2 Point O, Jailer, and Leo.

Coolie Crosses Vikram – 500 Cr Target Yet To Be reached

With crossing Vikram’s final collections, Rajinikanth’s Coolie enters the Top-6 of Kollywood Grossers, but the film needs to see a good second weekend, as it is yet to achieve the break-even.

Only 70% of the recovery has been completed in the 1st week, and at least by the 2nd weekend, the recovery has to be more than 80% to give some relief to the buyers

Vishwambhara: 2026 Release

0

Megastar Chiranjeevi’s Vishwambhara is continuously getting postponed, much to the dismay of fans. The latest buzz is that Vishwambhara is set for 2026 release.

Directed by Mallidi Vasishta, this fantasy entertainer’s release has been pushed because of the pending VFX works and unfinished business deals.

Vishwambhara’s Release Postponed Again

Furthermore, the non-theatrical deals of the film are likewise still pending. Fans and audiences awaited that there will be update on Chiranjeevi’s birthday with a teaser or poster of the film.

Now the news is that the teaser is not releasing and Chiranjeevi’s Vishwambhara has been pushed to the summer 2026 release.

Reports suggest that the birthday of Megastar will have an update of Chiranjeevi – Anil Ravipudi’s film, and this will be the next theatrical release of the actor.

Coolie Fails to Beat Leo’s 1st Week

0

Rajinikanth’s Coolie is struggling at the box office after a good first weekend. The film was expected to break the existing records, but it failed to live up to the expectations. Coolie fails to beat Leo’s 1st week collections.

Before the release of Coolie, Vijay’s Leo was holding the records of the 1st weekend and 1st week, and 2 Point O was holding the closing records for Kollywood. As said above, Rajinikanth-Lokesh Kanagaraj’s action drama was expected to break all records.

However, Rajinikanth’s Coolie failed to beat Leo’s 1st-week collections and did not live up to audiences’ expectations. The film opens with below-par WOM and reviews.

Still, with a 150Cr+ opening and a 380Cr+ weekend gross, the film sets new benchmarks for Kollywood. But after the weekend the film fails to maintain strong legs at the box office.

Leo’s 1st week gross stands at 466 Cr, whereas Coolie’s 1st week numbers will be around 430 Cr. Also, the film’s closing will fall under 2 Point O and Jailer, while Leo is likely to settle at 4th position. 

Even to settle at 4th position, Coolie, the film, needs to beat Ponniyin Selvan 1 (500 Cr), and a good second weekend is needed for it to do so.

Naga Vamsi Protects Buyers

0

The name of producer Naga Vamsi is doing the rounds in the industry circles with the clash of War 2 and Coolie. It is widely known that the producer is a fan of NTR, and he bought the rights to the War sequel. The film is heading towards a big loss, but Naga Vamsi protects his buyers.

But Vamsi turns out to be one of the best producers for buyers, as he always looks after their recovery and financial losses. Despite maintaining a very good success ratio, whenever his buyers lose the amount, the MAD producer immediately gives a compensation to stabilize them.

Naga Vamsi Comes To The Rescue Of War 2 Buyers

Naga Vamsi’s latest release Kingdom faced some losses, and because of that, the buyers did not pay the full amount for War 2. Still, he stuck to the same buyers. If it were some other producers, they would have sold the film to others. 

Vamsi’s latest distributed film, War 2, also sees huge losses, and the buzz is that the producer is likely to give Mass Jathara as compensation to the buyers. If Mass Jathara works well, then it will recover some big percentage of losses for the War 2 buyers.

Naga Vamsi is also said to be in discussions with the YRF team regarding the Telugu states’ numbers and losses, and the big banner reportedly agreed to compensate some percentage from losses.

Lokesh Kanagaraj Nervous About Kaithi 2 Expectations?

0

Kaithi and Vikram are the best films in Tamil director Lokesh Kanagaraj’s filmography. His fans eagerly await the release of hi 2, but Lokesh Kanagaraj seems to be nervous about expectations around the film.

With Kaidhi and Vikram—Hit List, Lokesh emerged as one of the craziest directors in Indian cinema and a top director of Kollywood in present days.

After Vikram’s release, people eagerly anticipated Kaithi 2, the director continuously delayed the film with other projects like Leo and Coolie, and now he is planning the Rajinikanth-Kamal Haasan multi starrer.

Putting other factors aside, it seems somehow Lokesh Kanagaraj might be feeling a lot of pressure to make Kaithi 2, as there are very huge expectations on the film, and matching them is not at all an easy task.

With Kaithi 2, audiences are expecting a bigger film than Vikram and Kaithi, so definitely there will be high pressure on the director, and he needs to come up with a fantastic story and screenplay.

Even though Lokesh Kanagaraj is saying the entire LCU script is ready, the massive expectations will certainly keep him under fire.

Maybe the pressure to satisfy fans/audiences is one of the reasons for Lokesh Kanagaraj pushing Kaithi 2 time and again.

War 2 vs Coolie: 6 Days Box Office

0

Coolie and War 2, both movies were expected to be huge money spinners, but the biggies are seeing a big drop in numbers on weekdays. Let’s have a look at the 6-day box office report of War 2 vs. Coolie Clash

Rajinikanth and Lokesh Kanagaraj’s Coolie has collected 420 Cr gross worldwide for 6 days at the worldwide box office. The all-India gross is around 263 Cr, and the overseas gross stands at 157 Cr approx.

Coming to the much-hyped sequel of War, the all-India gross is at 218 Cr, while the overseas gross is around 66 Cr, taking the total gross to approximately 285 Cr.

For breakeven value Coolie is likely to see an 80% – 85% recovery in closing, whereas War 2 will end up with a 50% recovery in its closing.

The Box Office clash, Coolie vs. War 2, had big expectations from everyone, but sadly, both movies are having disappointing runs at the theaters.

While Coolie is in a better position because of the extraordinary weekend, Hrithik Roshan and NTR’s War 2 struggled to excel except on Independence Day. 

Mass Jathara Gets New Date

0

Mass Jathara, starring Raviteja, has experienced a few delays with its filming and theatrical release. The commercial entertainer was planned for 27th August, but the buzz is that Mass Jathara gets a new date now.

The new release date of the film is said to be 5th September, and on the same date, Anushka Shetty’s Ghaati, Teja Sajja’s Mirai, and Sivakarthikeyan and AR Murugadoss’s Madharaasi are also releasing. 

Ravi Teja’s Mass Jathara takes Mira’s release date?

Reports from the distribution circles suggest that Ghaati and Mirai are changing their release dates, while the Tamil dubbed films Madharasi and Mass Jathara will be released on 5th September.

But this is definitely not as good a date as 27th August, as it falls on Vinayaka chaviti, which provides the film a holiday with a long weekend, and most importantly, it will be a solo release. Whereas September is crowded with many movies, and people will have multiple options.

Raviteja’s Mass Jathara team is likely to announce the new release date shortly, and the team has to come up with a massive promotional campaign to create a good buzz around it.
