Two movies getting released on one date, and one of them getting affected by another movie, is not a new thing in the Telugu film industry. The latest fantasy adventure film, Mirai, kills Kishkindhapuri, a horror thriller in competition.
Mirai was initially planned to be released on 5th September, and it was later moved to 12th September. Bellamkonda Sreenivas and his film’s team officially stated that the Mirai team did not even approach them before announcing the release date.
Kishikindhapuri gets affected at the box office because of Mirai
Definitely, if the Mirai team had approached the Kishkindhapuri team, they could have postponed or postponed the date. But at the end of the Kishkindhapuri is the one that is affected massively by the competition.
Even though Kishkindhapuri gets positive WOM, it is getting overshadowed by Mirai’s dominance. The horror film is getting decent numbers, but if it had a solo weekend, Kishkindhapuri could have enjoyed a much bigger weekend.
At least if Kishkindhapuri had been released on 11th September, Day 1 could have seen some big numbers. In one of the promotional interviews, Bellamkonda Sreenivas expressed that the other movie’s team did not contact them.
If both movies had discussed and planned the things, Kishkindhapuri could have benefited in a big way, and absolutely there is no effect on Mirai because of Kishkindhapuri, but the latter is getting severely affected by the former.
