Megastar Chiranjeevi’s Acharya debacle has been one of the biggest in Tollywood history. The film failed to evoke any interest and ended up being a massive failure. Even critics panned the movie for being too outdated and having a sluggish screenplay. The onscreen combo of Ram Charan and Chiranjeevi was expected to set the screens on fire but the exact opposite happened.
This brings us to the curious case of Megastar Chiranjeevi’s home productions. Back in 1988 something similar happened when Rudraveena was released under Anjana Productions banner. While the film received great critical acclaim and is considered one of the cult classics of Tollywood, it was a massive commercial failure and brought great losses to the Megastar.
Acharya on the other hand ended up being the biggest box-office misfire of Tollywood. This action entertainer collected a share of Rs 41Crs during its first-weekend run and in its full run, the film has collected a share of just Rs 45.2Crs. Directed by Koratala Siva, this Konidela Productions project is the biggest disaster in Telugu Cinema as the Theatrical Rights are valued at 133Crs
