Pokiri is one of the most iconic films in the history of Telugu cinema. The massy dialogues, Mahesh’s powerful screen presence and the swag with which he portrayed the role still remain fresh in people’s minds. It was a huge success when it released and its story continues to this day.
Yesterday, fans of Mahesh stormed to the theatres to watch the special shows of Pokiri. People rocked up in numbers to celebrate the birthday of their favorite star. The special shows of Pokiri have created unprecedented numbers and broken all imaginations.
The movie has collected 1.5 crores in gross due to the special shows, which is a record in itself. On top of that, it has also broken the record for number of shows, with a mind-bending 375+shows. 80% of the shows were houseful and the remaining posted excellent occupancies.
Mahesh fans are very happy with the success of the special shows but he fans of other heroes, not so much. Some fans are feeling insecure and are complaining that the shows are managed by Mahesh’s team and the numbers are bloated.
But it is simply common sense that exhibitors will only play the shows because of demand. Many people kept trying to book tickets which is why extra shows were added. Pokiri special shows started with a minimum number of shows but due to huge demand, the shows were added.
