This week, the Telugu audiences have seen the release of Superstar Rajinikanth’s Jailer and Megastar Chiranjeevi’s Bhola Shankar, in a day’s gap. The journey of both films has been different so far, and Rajini mania has been prevalent in the Telugu states as well. The jailer posted excellent collections and received a robust word of mouth compared to Bhola Shankar, which received mostly negative response. Such a dominance of Jailer has shown that the Bhola Shankar’s theaters are filling with the overflows of it.
On Saturday, Jailer collected a solid Rs 4 crores in the Telugu states, while the rest of India and overseas Telugu business stood at Rs 1 crore. Bhola Shankar managed only Rs 3 crores, which is truly shocking compared to this. The trade circles expected that the film, Jailer’s Telugu version collections will surpass Bhola Shankar’s collections today. It’s surprising that a dubbed movie, starring Superstar Rajinikanth, is dominating Chiranjeevi’s release in this way.
Today, Jailer was on a rampage mode at the box office from the noon shows itself. The theaters are registering house fulls and as there is heavy demand for the tickets, the distributors added the shows and theaters as much as possible.
But the demand for the tickets of Jailer was very high and due to committed agreements Bhola Shankar is running in most number of the theaters and the Jailer overflows in Telugu states are turning into an advantage of Bhola Shankar to some extent.
