Mammootty’s Bramayugam Movie Worldwide Closing Collections

Mammootty’s chilling folk horror film “Bramayugam” has completed its theatrical run, emerging as a success at the box office with decent collections. The film, directed by Rahul Sadasivan, captivated audiences with its unique blend of mystery and myth.

While facing competition from other Malayalam blockbusters like “Premalu” and “Manjummel Boys,” “Bramayugam” managed to hold its own. The film collected around 24 crores in its home state of Kerala and a commendable $2.22 Million from the GCC countries. Overseas markets contributed a total of around 27 crores, with the rest of India, including dubbed versions, adding another 8 crores.

This impressive performance brings “Bramayugam’s” worldwide gross collection to a strong 59 crores.

Nevertheless, “Bramayugam” is still considered a box office hit.

The film, released in black-and-white format on February 15th, 2024, received positive reviews from critics. Fans can now experience the thrills of “Bramayugam” from the comfort of their homes, as it’s currently streaming on SonyLiv since March 15th.

0

Movie: Om Bheem Bush
Rating: 2.75/5
Cast: Sree Vishnu, Priyadarshi, Rahul Ramakrishna, Preethi Mukundhan, Ayesha Khan, Srikanth Iyengar
Director: Sree Harsha
Produced By: Sunil Balusu
Release Date: March 22nd, 2024

The blockbuster trio Sree Vishnu, Priyadarshi, and Rahul Ramakrishna are back once again with a comedy entertainer Om Bheem Bush. The team succeeded in registering the film to the audience in a short span through some quirky promotions and a fun trailer. From the first look itself the team is portraying the movie as NO LOGIC ONLY MAGIC. Let’s dive into a detailed review and see if the movie has enough to create waves at the Tollywood box office.

Story:

Krishna Kanth (Sree Vishnu), Vinay (Priyadarshi), and Madhav (Rahul Ramakrishna) are three friends and refer to themselves as scientists. They decide to earn money in Bhairavapuram village using their tricks and refer to themselves as people who can solve any problem of the villagers. What kind of complications this pushes them into and how they face the obstacles through a series of confusions and hilarious episodes is what the story follows.

Performances:

The basic premise of Om Bheem Bush is quite simple and the actual fun lies in some crazy writing and the performances of the trio of Sree Vishnu, Priyadarshi and Rahul Ramakrishna. The three share a great chemistry on screen and continue from where they left in Brochevaruevarura. Srikanth Iyengar, Racha Ravi and Ayesha Khan did a great job and in terms of performances and character portrayals.

Positives:

  • Sree Vishnu, Priyadarshi and Rahul Ramakrishna’s performance
  • Fresh plot
  • Horror Comedy blocks in 2nd Half

Negatives:

  • Songs
  • Climax
  • Unconvincing emotional scenes


Analysis:

Om Bheem Bush is a great concept on paper and starts of well and promises a lot in the initial parts. However, as the movie nears its end, the wafer-thin screenplay, weak character arcs, and illogical sequences may bother some. The movie is salvaged due to its freshness and the performances of the leading trio. Sree Harsha has managed to create an engaging movie with a deeper meaning by deftly combining comedy, horror, and emotions.

Om Bheem Bush Movie Verdict:

Om Bheem Bush is an enjoyable movie with some genuinely funny moments. While it has its flaws and loopholes, it surely can be watched as a light weekend entertainer. Telugu audiences who were seeking some freshness in terms of concepts have something to watch out for with his comedy entertainer.

Cashing in on the trend, the Classic film of Allu Arjun and Sukumar Arya 2 is re-releasing in the theatres.

Films like Orange, Ee Nagaraniki Emaindhi re-released and did well. Arya 2 too belongs to this category. The film which released with so much hype ended up as a box-office disappointment. It became an average grosser. But the film enjoys craze among people for the characterization of Allu Arjun and the chartbuster songs composed by Devi Sri Prasad.

On the occasion of Allu Arjun’s birthday, the film will have its re-release in the theatres. Need to see how this works as the combo of Allu Arjun and Sukumar is riding very high after the success of the Pan-India sensation, Pushpa: The Rule.

0

Lokesh Kanagaraj is known for his action-packed films with more scope for thrilling elements and high-octane stunts. Romance somehow takes a backseat in his projects and the protagonists of his movies are usually gun-wielding action stars. The director himself is a huge action fan and likes to keep those elements in his films.

Lokesh however, has surprised everyone with his latest project. The director can be seen romancing Shruti Haasan in an upcoming private song. The promo of the song was released earlier today much to the amusement of everyone.

Lokesh and Shruti Haasan can be seen in a playful and romantic mood in this promo of the song titled ‘Inimel’. Kamal Haasan has penned the song’s lyrics and is also producing it. Shruti Haasan has composed this song which is directed by Dwarkesh Prabhakar.

The unreleased song is attached to an interesting tagline, “Delulu is the new Solulu.” The song will release on 25th March.

Lokesh Kanagaraj’s last film ‘Leo’, featuring Thalapathy Vijay, was a superhit in 2023. He is currently on a social media hiatus to focus more on the upcoming film with Rajinikanth. He worked with Kamal Haasan in ‘Vikram’.

Sukumar leaves Vijay Devarakonda highly disappointed

0

Actor Vijay Deverakonda and Director Sukumar announced a film long ago but it didn’t materialize. Vijay Deverakonda announced their collaboration on X and audiences were thrilled to hear the news. They expected the combo would do wonders at the box office. But it seems Sukumar has left Vijay Deverakonda highly disappointed.

It’s a dream for a mid-range hero to attain top-tier status with such a big director. Vijay Deverakonda created a phenomenon among youth with the films Arjun Reddy, and Geetha Govindam. Both became major blockbusters and Vijay Deverakonda never looked back afterward. The audience hoped he may go to a bigger position after Sukumar’s film. But Sukumar is still busy with the sequel of Pushpa and the team is also planning one more film in the Pushpa franchise.

Along with this, Sukumar is also planning to do a film with Ram Charan as per sources. This will be Ram Charan’s 17th film. So it would at least take a minimum of 4-5 years for Vijay Deverakonda and Sukumar combo film to start shooting. This has heavily disappointed the audience. Vijay Deverakonda is currently working for Family Star, directed by Geetha Govindam and Sarkaru Vaari Paata fame, P. Parasuram. The film is slated to release this year.
