Mirai Opens with 13 Cr Gross in Telugu States

Mirai received a fantastic opening in all Telugu states’ territories. The film has collected a 3.6 Cr share in Telangana and a 3.7 Cr share in Andhra Pradesh, with a total of 7.3 Cr share and a gross of approximately 13 Cr worldwide.

This is an extraordinary start for the film, and the best thing is that Day 2 is trending towards a bigger number than the opening day. The film is eyeing a 40 Cr+ gross weekend in Telugu states.

Trade expects Teja Sajja’s Mirai to collect 100 Cr gross in Telugu states easily. Looking at the openings and today’s trend along with tomorrow’s advance bookings, it looks definitely possible.

As the Karthik Gattamneni directorial carries good reviews, trade anticipates that the film will have a good long run at the box office.

Lokah Smashes 100 Cr in Overseas Markets

A few days back, the Malayalam blockbuster Lokah joined the 100 Cr club at the domestic box office (India), and now it joins the 100 Cr club overseas too. It became the 2nd film to collect more than 100 Cr gross overseas after Empuraan in Mollywood.

Till now, the worldwide gross of the film is more than 220 Cr in 16 days, and today the film will surpass the 80 Cr figure in Kerala.

Lokah has crossed 100 cr overseas, and it is all set to achieve a big milestone that no film has achieved to date. 

In the history of Malayalam cinema, no film has collected 100 Cr in both Kerala and overseasterritories. Mohanlal’s Empuraan missed in Kerala, while his other film, Thudarum, missed overseas. 

But Lokah: Chapter-1 Chandra has already achieved the feat overseas, and it will achieve the same in Kerala in one week.

Karnataka Finally Caps Ticket Prices

For a few days, there was a big buzz about the Karnataka Government capping the ticket prices in the state, and now today an official announcement came, which has put an effective cinema ticket price cap.

The single screens’ and multiplex screens’ price cap has been fixed at ₹236 as the maximum charge, including recliners and all taxes.

However, high-end multiplex screens with 75 seats of premium facilities will not come under this price cap. It means screens like PVR Director’s Cut can continue to charge their regular ticket prices.

Karnataka Government’s Official Notification of cinema ticket price at Rs 200

On Friday, September 12, the Karnataka government announced that the highest ticket price for any movie in any language at all theaters, including multiplexes, is set at Rs 200, not counting taxes. However, multi-screen cinemas with premium features and 75 seats or fewer don’t have to follow this Rs 200 cap.

This new move is part of a bigger plan by the state government, which tried to control ticket prices back in 2017, but those efforts got stopped after the High Court intervened. The new rules coming in are likely to ease things for movie fans, especially since going to the movies at multiplexes has gotten pricier lately.

Mirai: Buy One Get One

Teja Sajja’s Mirai opens very huge in Telugu and is showing an excellent trend on day 2. But in Hindi the opening day net is over 1.5 Cr in India despite positive reviews. To push the film’s collections, the north distributor came up with a buy-one-get-one-ticket offer for Mirai.

Mirai Hindi: Dharma Productions Provides Buy-One-Get-One Offer

The makers expect very big collections in Hindi because of the genre, and Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions released the film in India. The buy-one-get-one offer for Mirai is expected to bring good numbers today.

But this offer is valid only for shows in Hindi for India except South India (Karnataka, Andhra, Telangana, Tamil Nadu, and Kerala).

It can certainly help the film to witness more footfalls and to spread the positive WOM, and if the movie picks up good pace over the weekend, then Mirai’s Hindi version will see good numbers with a long run.

Aishwarya Lekshmi Quit Social Media

Actress Aishwarya Lekshmi has made a bold decision to quit social media. She shared the news on her official Instagram account, saying she believes in the idea, “Out of the ‘gram is out of the mind.”

Fans were surprised when Aishwarya Lekshmi announced her exit from social media through an Instagram story. In her message, she wrote, “For a long time, I believed that social media was necessary to stay relevant in the industry. I thought I had to keep up with the times.”

She added that social media, which was meant to serve people, had instead taken control of her. It distracted her from her work and research, affected her thinking and language, and made simple joys feel empty.

This year, the talented actress targets Bollywood audiences, as her Hindi debut film, Mere Rao, in which she stars alongside Aamir Khan’s son Junaid Khan, is getting released this December.

Sai Pallavi has a big road ahead in Bollywood, as she also has a monumental film, Ramayana, in which she appears as Sitha. If she is able to impress Bollywood audiences, then she will emerge as a pan-India actress.

Coolie Worldwide Closing Collections: Final Box Office Report

Rajinikanth and Lokesh Kanagaraj’s Coolie was released in theaters in August amidst huge expectations. The film failed to live up to the expectations. Coolie ended its box office run with 520 Cr worldwide closing collections at the box office.

The film collected 152 Cr gross collection in Tamil Nadu, and certainly the “A” certificate affected the film’s numbers; otherwise, it could have collected around 170 Cr with U/A. The action drama collected 70 Cr gross in Telugu states, while in Karnataka it did well with 43 Cr gross collection.

Coolie’s Kerala run disappoints as it ends with 25 Cr gross, whereas it performed above expectations in North India and collected around 49 Cr gross. The total all-India box office collections are close to 340 Cr.

If we mix the overseas numbers (180 Cr gross), Coolie’s worldwide closing gross collections at the box office stand at 520 Cr.

For the film’s WOM and reviews, it definitely had superb collections, and it settled as an average venture at the box office. It is the 4th biggest grosser for Kollywood after 2.0, Jailer, and Leo.

Mirai Kills Kishkindhapuri

Mirai Kills Kishkindhapuri

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.
