Bangarraju was released on 14th January on the occasion of Sankranthi. The film opened to extraordinary collections on its first weekend due to the festival advantage, and due to no occupancy restrictions.
But the real test was after the festival period and, Bangarraju has failed the test. The film dropped heavily after the first weekend. This is not an uncommon trend as most films drop in collections after their first weekend. Even films like Love Story, Akhanda, Pushpa-The Rise, and Shyam Singha Roy dropped on the weekdays.
But the difference is, Bangarraju has failed to pick up during the weekends as well, whereas the above-mentioned movies saw a sharp rise in their 2nd and 3rd weekends. This is a worrying sign for Nagarjuna and the team of Bangarraju.
Even the Friday night shows, which are normally good have been shockingly poor. The advance bookings of Bangarraju for the 2nd weekend have been disappointing as well. This is a clear sign that the film has run only due to the festival, and the content is weak. Most of the theatres are running at deficits as well.
Bangarraju also stars Naga Chaitanya Krithi Shetty and, Ramya Krishna in lead roles. Kalyan Krishna is the director of the movie. Anup Rubens is the music director of the film.
