Pawan Kalyan’s OG Settles at 7th Biggest Share in Nizam and Guntur

Released on September 25th, Pawan Kalyan’s action drama, OG, directed by Sujeeth, completes its theatrical run and settles at the 7th position in the list of biggest shares in Nizam and Guntur.

Because of the exciting promos and posters, “They Call Him OG” created a massive hype among fans, and even neutral audiences were also interested in watching it in theaters because of Thaman’s soundtrack as well.

OG Nizam and Guntur: Biggest Share for Pawan Kalyan

However, the film did not meet expectations and ended as an average grosser at the worldwide box office.

As said above, OG achieves the biggest share of Pawan Kalyan by miles in Nizam (48.5 Cr Incl GST) and Guntur (10.6 Excl GST), but falls short a bit of the breakeven mark.  It was also affected by the A certificate, which prevented family audiences from watching it in theaters.

Allu Arjun Pushes Sukumar for Pushpa 3

After Baahubali, Pushpa emerged as the biggest franchise in Indian cinema. Pushpa 2 ended up with the lead for the third part, but it did not start immediately. Now, the latest news is that Allu Arjun is pushing Sukumar for Pushpa 3. 

Sukumar is now working on the script work of Ram Charan’s film, and Allu Arjun is already working with Atlee for a massive budget film.

Allu Arjun reportedly wants Sukumar to take up Pushpa 3 right after Ram Charan’s film, though the creative genius director is planning to do another project next. It remains to be seen how things turn out.

Even though Sukumar agrees to the third installment of the Pushpa franchise after Ram Charan’s film, Arjun needs to do one more film after Atlee. As Sukumar takes a bit of time for each project, he will be completely occupied with Charan’s film in 2026 and 2027.

So, it will certainly take another year for the Pushpa 3 script and pre-production works. Coming to Allu Arjun, the shooting for Atlee’s film is likely to be completed by the end of 2026 or early 2027.

If we observe all the situations, there is a vacuum for 1-2 films in the middle time for both the actor and director. We need to see which film Allu Arjun takes after Atlee’s film.

Rajinikanth – Kamal Haasan – Nelson

Director Nelson was committed to making a film with NTR after finishing Jailer 2, but recently, a big buzz started that the film will be delayed as Nelson Dilipkumar is in talks to direct Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan’s biggest multistarrer. 

This news is said to be almost confirmed, and the epic multistarrer of Rajinikanth and Kamal Haasan will be directed by Nelson. An official announcement on the same is also expected very soon.

Kamal is working with Anbariv masters for his next, while Rajini is currently working on Jailer 2, and he is also likely to do a quick project after that. In the meantime, Nelson will spend time on the pre-production works of the Rajinikanth-Kamal Haasan multistarrer.

The project is likely to go on floors by the end of 2026 or early 2027. There are massive expectations on this film, as the two biggest stars of the Tamil film industry are coming together after a long time on screen.

Kantara Chapter 1 Turns Loss Venture in Overseas

Kantara Chapter 1, directed and acted by Rishab Shetty, became the biggest grosser of this year with over 800 Cr gross collections, but it ends as a loss venture overseas, despite it creating many records at the box office.

The spiritual action drama did phenomenally well in South languages, while Hindi is decent in India and overseas, being disastrous. 

Due to the the Hindi version’s terrible performance overseas, Kantara Chapter 1 ends up as a loss venture for the business valued. The film’s overseas gross will close around $12.5 million, while the breakeven is valued between $16 and $17 million, including the expenses.

Kantara Chapter 1 fails to replicate the mafic of KGF 2 Overseas

KGF 2 has collected around $27 million overseas, and there were expectations that the Kantara prequel will easily do $20 million with positive WOM.

The film gets positive WOM as expected, but somehow it did not create that massive anticipation for Hindi overseas audiences. For KGF 2 overseas, the Hindi version did extraordinarily well with more than 11M in collections, but Rishab Shetty’s Kantara Chapter 1 did not do even 1/3rd of that.

Pawan Kalyan’s OG Nizam Closing Collections

Pawan Kalyan’s OG, released in theaters on September 25, has completed its theatrical run and is now streaming on Netflix in all languages, but the film failed to cross the 50 Cr Share in Nizam. 

Dil Raju bagged the film’s Nizam rights for ₹55 crore. Later, reports suggested that there were some recoverable terms in the deal, making it a safe venture for him. Dil Raju even officially stated that OG was a profitable film for him.

Of course, in business, there are always various terms and clauses involved. But if we look purely at the ₹55 crore valuation, the film did not reach the breakeven point. 

OG collected a 41 crore final share (excluding GST) in Nizam, and even including GST, the share stands around 48.5 crore. With this, the film narrowly missed crossing the 50 crore share mark in the region. 

This is the highest share for a Pawan Kalyan film in Nizam, and it opened to a massive first-day collection, but compared to that start, the final numbers are on the average side. 

The main reason is that while the film completely satisfied fans, it offered only an average or ordinary experience for general audiences.

Mass Jathara Censor Report and Breakeven Details

Mass Jathara, starring Ravi Teja, has been censored with U/A with a runtime of around 160 minutes. The film was initially planned for a 31st October release with 30th October evening premieres. 

But to avoid competition with Baahubali: The Epic, producer Naga Vamsi has decided to release his film on 1st November with premieres on the 31st October night.

Mass Jathara completed its censor formalities, and the report is said to be positive. Also, the business terms of the film are said to be done on a recoverable basis, as Naga Vamsi has faced some losses recently with Kingdom and War 2 as a distributor. 

But for the movie’s market value, Ravi Teja’s Mass Jathara needs to collect around 30 Cr in theatrical shares worldwide to achieve the break-even and attain the hit status.

The trailer is releasing on 27th October, which will play a crucial role in increasing the hype and buzz among audiences.
