0

Kalyan Ram’s Devil was this week’s major Telugu release and received decent reviews and word of mouth on its release. However, with Salaar running in theatres successfully and its own low buzz and weak promotions resulted in a weak opening day for Devil.

Here’s a region-wise breakdown for Devil 1st day collections.

Uttarandhra- 17L
Guntur – 18L
East Godavari – 12L
West Godavari – 10L
Krishna – 10L
Nellore – 6L

Total Andhra territories business is in the range of 8Cr and the movie managed to collect just Rs 73L which means just 9% recovery and a pretty dismal opening day. Devil Ceeded rights were sold at Rs 3.2 Cr and the film managed to collect around Rs 35L share which is just 10% recovery.

Coming to Nizam, the day 1 openings are said to be in the range 60L share. The total Telugu state collection stands at Rs 1.7Cr share and the film got off to a similar poor start in ROI and overseas markets as well. The Total Overseas gross is around 90L while the approximate share will be in the range of Rs 30L. The total worldwide share is in the range Rs 2.1Cr making it a disastrous Day 1 for Devil.

He said, “SRK was very curious about this story, he is a brave man and brave actor and he was very happy with the story. I wanted to work with Shah Rukh Khan for a long time…he is a great man who showers love on everybody”.

Regarding Dunki’s response Raj Kumar Hirani said that many people are saying he was brave enough to do a story film and a complete content film in this era where people are mainly watching action films, I am very happy with Dunki’s response.

When asked about the much-anticipated Munna Bhai 3, he said, “Both the Munna Bhai MBBS films were made so good, I have 5 half-written scripts with me but till I can match the script (of new movie) to those two movies, I won’t make it…I have a lot of interest in making another Munna Bhai MBBS movie, but not sure when.”

“Sanju and I often discuss about Munna Bhai 3. He also tells me to make it. Dunki has just been finished…now I will go through the collection of the old stories that I have. I want to make Munna Bhai 3 but I don’t know when”.

Speaking about his next project and genre, he said, “I am jumping genres and trying to make something different from ‘Munnabhai’ to ‘3 Idiots’ to ‘PK’ to ‘Sanju’, and now ‘Dunki.”

Devil: Bad release date puts crores of money at risk

0

Devil is quite a prestigious project and a big-budget film in Kalyan Ram’s career. The film was made on a 45Cr+ budget and when there’s so much money involved, having a proper release date is extremely crucial. The teams should ideally opt for a solo release or festival release for these films. But the makers of Devil locked 29th December as the release date which has the Salaar effect as well as upcoming Sankranthi releases effect.

Even though the film got a decent talk and reviews, the audience is not turning up as most of the audience have an interest in Salaar and Sankranthi releases like Guntur Kaaram and others. Devil will be replaced in all theatres in just 2 weeks for Sankranthi’s release which is a pretty bad sign for this film.

All these scenarios are very bad for the Devil. The film was released yesterday and opened with average word of mouth and reviews. The release date has put the movie at a huge risk as crores of money is riding on this project.

Devil needs to collect 20Cr+ shares for breakeven and yesterday it opened with less than 2Cr shares and there is no jump in today’s bookings. If the same momentum continues then it will end up as a single-digit closing share. The team should have opted for a better release date but made a big mistake by releasing on 29th December

Salaar witnesses abnormal trending in Hindi markets. It is widely known that Rebel Star Prabhas has released his latest pan Indian action drama, Salaar in competition with Shah Rukh Khan’s Dunki on the Christmas weekend. Salaar witnesses abnormal trending in Hindi markets.

Prabhas’s Salaar opened with an average start of a 15Cr net in Hindi markets and did not take a jump on day 2. It maintained the same range on day 2. On Sunday, it witnessed a decent jump and collected 20Cr net and on the Christmas day it collected on the same range of day 1 and day 2 collections.

Salaar grown big on Christmas weekend

For the 4-day holiday weekend, the film had collected around 65Cr net. Normally, with this kind of average opening weekend, the film would have seen a heavier drop on Day 5 [Working day] but surprisingly, Salaar maintained solid occupancy even on day 5 evening and night shows numbers were better than Christmas day which surprised everyone.

On the other side, Dunki witnessed a big drop after the festival weekend. Salaar collected around 9.5Cr net on day 5 and day 6 and dominated Dunki . Again it started dropping on Day 7 as on Thursday it fell flat and gathered 7Cr. On Friday, it dropped even more and did not pick up during the evening shows.

This is a very abnormal trending for the film, which is suddenly raising and suddenly dropping on collections which we have not seen regularly.

From the release date to Christmas day, Dunki had a clear lead over Salaar, but on 26th and 27th December Salaar took the lead over Dunki and from 28th December Dunki registered better occupancy and for the weekend also Dunki has better advance bookings than Salaar. This is a completely abnormal trending for Salaar. We must wait and see how the film will trend in this long weekend.

Nagarjuna demands a Sankranthi release for Naa Saami Ranga , but the producer wants to postpone the film. It is widely known that the upcoming film of King Nagarjuna, Naa Saami Ranga was scheduled to be released on Sankranthi. Though the official date was not revealed, makers promoted the film as a Sankranthi release. But recently, there have been postponement rumors about the film.

Reportedly, the Producer of the film and Nagarjuna are not on the same stand about the release of Naa Saami Ranga. Nagarjuna’s perspective is that they have planned for a Sankranthi release and worked so hard many days and nights to complete the film to arrive at Sankranthi. Nagarjuna demands a Sankranthi release for Naa Saami Ranga , but the producer wants to postpone the film.

Naa Saami Ranga release date argument between Nagarjuna and the Producer

The movie has been made on a reasonable budget of 25Cr, and the non-theatrical business will fetch the 2/3Rd amount of the budget. So, Theatrically, the film does not need to require big numbers. A total of 200 screens are enough to get 20Cr share which will give good profits for the film, so Nagarjuna is sure that they can go for Sankranthi release despite hectic competition.

Producer’s perspective is different from Nagarjuna’s on the release date of Naa Saami Ranga. They have worked on a very tight schedule and the shoot is still 7–10 days left along with the other work which need to be done.

As said above, there is a heavier competition for Sankranthi releases. So, as the movie came out well, the Producer feels that limiting to 200 screens and 20Cr share is not a good idea. The movie has the potential to work huge at the box office and if they can come on another solo date they can get maximum theaters so he feels that there is no need to rush the film’s release.

This Difference of opinion between Nagarjuna and the Producer is making the announcement of Naa Saami Ranga’s release date getting delayed. According to the reports, by today or tomorrow the team is expected to take the final decision but as of now more chances are there for the film to be postponed but if Nagarjuna convinces producer, the movie may hit the screens on Sankranthi.
