Weak advance bookings for Pawan Kalyan’s Gudumba Shankar re-release

0

Normally Pawan Kalyan’s re-releases open with very great celebrations and big numbers. Even for Gudumba Shankar, this was expected and the team initially planned perfectly by announcing the rerelease date as 31st August. With Varun Tej’s new film Gandivadhari Arjuna releasing last Friday, the release of Gudumba Shankar was rescheduled to 2nd September coinciding with Powerstar’s birthday.

Now, the plans have changed with Varun Tej’s movie performing terribly at the box office. The re-release has now been pulled ahead and Gudumba Shankar will be hitting the screens tomorrow. Due to this last-minute shuffle, the advance bookings opened with this complete mess. Because of this, even the audience does not have much interest in the movie. The advance bookings are very weak and a record opening is not possible this time around.

Directed by Veera Shankar and produced by Naga Babu under the banner of Anjana Productions, the film, Gudumba Shankar originally released the film in 2004. Pawan Kalyan also provided the screenplay for the film and choreographed action sequences for the film as well. Meera Jasmine and Ashish Vidyarthi played important roles. Mani Sharma composed the music for the film.

0

Balakrishna’s Bhairava Dweepam joined the long list of re-releases hitting the screens. Unfortunately, the re-release of this action fantasy adventure has been now postponed. The movie was actually planned to hit the screens today and a trailer was also released regarding the release. Unfortunately, the general audience and even fans showed complete disinterest and with no choice the re-release got postponed.

Interestingly, Nagarjuna’s Manmadhudu was also released just a day ago i.e. yesterday on the occasion of his birthday. With so many re-releases happening back to back, audience fatigue could be a reason behind complete disinterest in the film’s screening. Even Pawan Kalyan’s Gudumba Shankar is also up for re-release on 31st August.

Directed by Singeetam Srinivasa Rao, Bhairava Dweepam is considered a classic in Tollywood and earned Balakrishna great fame and awards. The fantasy movie was released on April 14, 1994, and became a huge commercial hit as well. The film created a record by winning a total of 9 Nandi Awards. Roja played the female lead opposite Balakrishna and Rambha appeared in a special song titled Naruda O Naruda.
