0

There are no Clean Hit Films for Big Stars in Telugu Post-COVID. It is widely known that the Corona Pandemic had a big impact on the film industry as the number of footfalls were lessened a bit after the effect. Even the Telugu film industry saw change in the business of the films. There are no Clean Hit Films for Big Stars in Telugu Post-COVID.

These are the stars who have films released in Telugu Post COVID:

Prabhas: Radhe Shyam, Adipurush both became massive disasters at the box office and Salaar achieved the breakeven in Nizam and in Andhra and other territories it was a loss venture.

Mahesh Babu: Sarkaru Vaari Paata achieved break even only in a few territories and other territories ended up with losses now Guntur Kaaram is also expected to get the same result.

Allu Arjun: Pushpa The Rise worked huge in other languages, but in Telugu, it did not achieve break even for all buyers.

Ram Charan: RRR, the global blockbuster, also gave losses for Andhra buyers and his multi starrer film with his father, Acharya was a massive disaster at the box office. 

NTR: RRR given losses for Andhra buyers. 

Pawan Kalyan: Vakeel Saab and Bheemla Nayak, both the films had given some losses to the buyers and his other film, Bro the Avatar was completely a disaster at the box office. 

Post Covid the big stars are not getting a clean blockbuster with profits in all territories. The business of all the big films being done for big numbers can also be considered as one of the reasons for this.

Hanuman is heading towards becoming the All-Time Sankranthi Record Grosser of Tollywood.

Naga Vamsi Strongly Counters a Section of Agenda Media with Guntur Kaaram Box Office Collections. It is widely known that Mahesh Babu and Trivikram’s Guntur Kaaram was released in theaters worldwide on January 12th. Despite receiving mixed talk, the film turned out to be the biggest 1St week earner for Superstar Mahesh Babu. Naga Vamsi Strongly Counters a Section of Agenda Media with Guntur Kaaram Box Office Collections.

A section of media and people had targeted the film, Guntur Kaaram with an agenda and tried to kill the film. There is no wrong with giving a bad review or rating for a film if they do not like it, but writing only one-sided reviews by mentioning negative aspects of the film and not writing anything positive about the film is the issue.

Producer Suryadevara Naga Vamsi interacted with the media today and countered strongly that there are some people and a section of media who tried all the ways to kill the film, but the audiences saved them and made the film a success.

Vamsi stated that the film delivered massive numbers and most of the buyers are close to break even as they have recovered 90% of their business. In Nizam also the collections are good, but it did not reach the expectations and still, the numbers are good.

We should have prepared the audience: Naga Vamsi

As per Vamsi, overseas is the only area where the film did not work. He also said that the reviews did not affect the film at all, but preparing the audience was the biggest mistake done by the team. “We prepared audiences for a mass film and delivered a family entertainer who has impacted badly in 1 AM and early shows on the opening day. After that from evening shows families started to come to the theaters and now movie delivered good numbers”.

“One of our films was released a few years back during Sankrathi, it got bad talk, and it didn’t do well. So, Guntur Kaaram worked because of the content in the film but not because of Sankrathi season” says the producer, Naga Vamsi.
