Directed by Nag Ashwin, the movie stars Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, Amitabh Bachchan, Disha Patani, and Kamal Haasan in central roles. The post-apocalyptic movie has managed to impress the audience with its production values and technical aspects with the Mahabharata sequence standing as special highlights.

Senapathy spoils Bharateeyudu 2

0

Senapathy, played by Kamal Haasan was the central character of the original film, Bharateeyudu/Indian. The character designed by Director Shankar earned great applause from the audience and became a iconic role for Kamal Haasan as well. When a sequel was announced for Bharateeyudu/Indian, many wondered how Shankar would deal with the character at the current time. Now after the film’s release, everyone feels that Senapathy has spoiled Bharateeyudu 2/Indian 2.

Senapathy turned out to be the main negative aspect for the film. People feel that the scenes not involving Senapathy looked better. Whenever the character appears on screen, they instantly get bored and disappointed due to weak writing of Shankar. Senapathy’s character has also become a troll material in terms of the get up and action scenes where he fights. Audience lost interest in the film throughout for the same reason.

Second half of the film felt somewhat better as it involved Siddarth’s emotional episodes but they turn out to be bad when Senapathy’s six pack fight starts. All the things involving Senapathy’s character have not worked well apart from very few scenes. Now, we have to see how the team deals with Indian 3. The film has already become a disaster and will end up as a nightmare for all the parties involved.

Indian 2 Crashes: An All-Time Disaster

0

After a below-par weekend, Indian 2 crashed completely on the first weekday. The film dropped more than 70% from Sunday. And on the 4th day, it collected just a single-digit gross worldwide which is truly astonishing and disastrous. From these figures, even crossing Rs 150 crores gross figure looks pretty tough.

Indian 2 is now an all-time disaster in Kollywood. No big-budget film flopped like this in Kollywood history. This Kamal Haasan starrer has failed deliver minimum numbers at the Box office and is a massive setback for the team. Now we need to see how the team will come out of the situation and how Indian 3 works out. The producers Lyca Productions and Red Giant Movies have definitely found themselves in a pretty big financial hurdle.

Directed by Shankar, Indian 2 also stars Siddharth, Rakulpreet Singh, Priya Bhavani Shankar, Nedumudi Venu and SJ Suryah in key roles. This pan-India biggie was produced by Lyca Productions and Redu Giant Movies with Anirudh Ravichander composing the tunes.

Hindi Box-Office: Prabhas > Rajamouli

0

Prabhas is currently basking in the historic success of his latest flick, Kalki 2898 AD. It is undeniably the biggest hit in his career since Bahubali: The Conclusion (2018). Helmed by Nag Ashwin, it received mixed responses upon release but posted record numbers in its first weekend.

Particularly in the Hindi belt, it has minted a staggering INR 370 crore in its theatrical run so far. And considering its current footfalls, it is all set to surpass S. S. Rajamouli’s RRR (2022), which scored a record INR 380 crore, in the next couple of days.

So far, Rajamouli is considered the biggest brand among filmgoers in Hindi. But with Kalki 2898 AD, Prabhas has once again underlined his undeniable superstardom in the northern states of India. It must also be noted that, despite receiving disastrous reviews, Saaho (2019) performed well in its Hindi version.

NTR Fans Upset With Team Devara!

0

Jr. NTR will be next seen in a high-octane action drama film titled Devara: Part One. Helmed by Koratala Shiva, it also features Jahnvi Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan in crucial roles. Touted as a ‘pan-Indian’ project, it is slated for a grand release on September 27, 2024.

Clearly, the date is only two months away from today, and considering the project’s scale, ambition, and breakeven figures, fans expect aggressive promotions across the length and breadth of the country. And unfortunately, that is not happening.

On the eve of Tarak‘s birthday, the first single titled ‘Fear Song’ was launched to a good response from fans. After that, the second single is expected to be out in the first week of July; obviously, that didn’t happen, and what’s even worse is that the team hasn’t given any update regarding its new release date. This caused a big upset among Nandamuri fans.

Record business for Double Ismart

0

Puri Jagannadh gave a big comeback with Ismart Shankar. The film was a major milestone in Puri’s as well as Ram’s career. Unfortunately, he immediately faced a big setback with Liger. Even though Liger gave a bad result, the craze of Ismart Shankar and the promotional content of Double Ismart have helped the film to fetch a record deal.

Hanuman producers Prime Show Entertainments have acquired the worldwide rights of Double Ismartt for a record price of 54 Cr. This is a massive deal and the makers are hoping to cash in on the release date of 15th August which will be a big holiday weekend. 

This is a great chance for both Puri Jagannadh and Ram. If the word of mouth is positive then it will lead to easy recovery, as there are good chances for the film to deliver good numbers in Hindi. Even Liger opened with good numbers in Hindi and that’s something Puri and co. would be looking to emulate.

Puri has also produced this film along with Charmy under Puri Connects banner. The film also stars Sanjay Dutt, Kavya Thapar, and Sayaji Shinde in key roles with Mani Sharma composing the music.

Dil Raju: Lucky or Unlucky ?

0

Dil Raju, One of Tollywood’s top Producer was supposed to produce Indian 2. He even came on board for the film officially as well. But Dil Raju opted out of the film for various reasons mostly releated to budget. Lyca Productions took over Indian 2 then. Dil Raju however continued collaborating with Shankar for their Game Changer starring Ram Charan. Now, Indian 2’s disastrous performance makes one wonder if Dil Raju is lucky or unlucky.

Indian 2 as said is heading towards becoming a big disaster in Shankar’s career. Dil Raju has really escaped this with his intelligence. But he becomes unlucky as well since his upcoming film, Game Changer is also directed by Shankar. Indian 2’s underpeformance will definitely impact the pre-bizz of Game Changer which is already losing the hype. Game Changer’s first lyrical song, Jaragandi didn’t create the necessary hype and Indian 2’s performance will futher damage Game Changer’s box office prospects.

Game Changer’s shoot was also affected by Indian 2’s shoot. The film also exceeded the budget limit and postponed its release date many times. We need to see how much business Game Changer does. Ram Charan’s stardom and Dil Raju’s track record may help the buyers to not get scared. But the result is in the hands of Audience and we have to wait and see till the film’s release.

0

Kalki 2898 AD witnessed a very big jump the previous weekend largely owing to terrible reviews and talk of Indian 2. The bad reviews saw the audience making their way to catch Kalki 2898 AD and giving it a big 3rd weekend. After 18 days, the film has collected around Rs 670 Cr gross in India and the overseas collections stand at around Rs 240 Cr gross.

The total worldwide gross is Rs 910 Cr and this Nag Ashwin project is now heading towards the Rs 1000 Cr mark. If we include 3D charges, the gross has crossed Rs 950 Cr already. While Kalki is likely to fall short of the Rs 1000 crore mark, with 3D charges included, it will certainly breach that milestone.


Directed by Nag Ashwin, the movie stars Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, Amitabh Bachchan, Disha Patani, and Kamal Haasan in central roles. The post-apocalyptic movie has stayed ahead of the competition in terms of BO collection since its release.

Celebrating the blockbuster success of the film, Prabhas shared a message for all the fans and thanked them for making the film a ‘huge hit’. “Thanks to Nag Ashwin garu, he really really worked hard for five years. And to make such a huge film, I think we should thank the producers. They are the most gutsy producers. The way they spent, we all got worried. I want to thank these producers for giving me the opportunity to work with the greatest legends in Indian cinema,” he added.
