Disastrous phase continues for Mega Heroes

0

Mega family has had a mixed year so far with the last month being particularly terrible for their releases. This year Mega Heroes started with positive results with Waltair Veerayya and Virupaksha going on to become huge blockbusters at the box office.

Megastar Chiranjeevi’s Waltair Veerayya released for Sankranti posted career best numbers for Chiranjeevi and stands at All Time TOP6 in Tollywood history. The theatrical rights of this film were valued at 88Crs and the film went on to be a massive profit venture collecting a share of Rs 129Crs. 

Sai Dharam Tej’s Virupaksha came up with a low buzz before its release but with the help of positive talk became a massive blockbuster and the film had a terrific run at the box office. The film was a surprise blockbuster and the biggest hit of Sai Dharam Tej’s career. Nobody expected this much revenue for the film and it stunned many with its run.

The great record set by Chiranjeevi and Sai Dharam tej couldn’t be continued and all the next films from the mega heroes went on to become box-office failures. It all started with Bro: The Avatar starring two mega heroes- Pawan Kalyan and Sai Dharam Tej. The film ended up as a below-average fare.

This was followed by the biggest disaster in recent ties i.e. Bhola Shankar. The film brought massive losses to every party involved. This week’s release Gandeevadhari Arjuna has also emerged as a massive disaster marking successive failure for Varun Tej after Ghani.

Massive targets for Pawan Kalyan’s Gudumba Shankar re-release

0

Power Star Pawan Kalyan’s Gudumba Shankar is getting re released on September 2nd as his birthday gift for the fans. The film’s collections will be donated to the actor’s political party, Janasena. Now Gudumba Shankar has to score big at the box office as it has to break the massive target set by Mahesh Babu’s Businessman.

On the occasion of Superstar Mahesh Babu’s Birthday, his old film Businessman was released, and it broke Pawan Kalyan’s Kushi’s opening day record in re-releases and puts a massive target for the other heroes films by collecting more than 5.2Cr gross.

Now the fans of Pawan Kalyan are targeting to break this record. Gudumba Shankar movie’s bookings have opened on limited screens for now and the initial trend of bookings is decent, but the target for it is huge and we need to see whether it will break the record of Businessman or not.

The re-release of “Businessman” and its massive success stood as a testament to the timelessness of its narrative and Mahesh Babu’s indomitable star power. As the film continued to weave its magic on the big screen once again, its newfound success in the re-release sphere added another illustrious chapter to the storied career of both the actor and the film itself.

Salaar’s USA distributor fulfills promise with record screen release

0

Normally for every movie of the respective heroes, the USA distributors will promote saying the movie will have the biggest release or record release ever, and most of the time, the distributors will fail at the last minute by not locking the record theatres as promised. But Salaar distributors have done exactly what they intended to do and have fulfilled the promise thanks to their efficient planning.

Prathyangira Cinemas, who are distributing the film in the USA promised that this Prabhas starter will have a record release ever for Indian cinema. And just as promised the movie will be released with all big chains and Imax screens being blocked for the film. The advance bookings are slowly opening on many screens and the trend of advance booking is sensational as the pre-sales are said to be in the range of $300K and already and $3 Million dollar premiers are expected.

Salaar is expected to smash some box-office records considering the kind of hype it has created so far. The film’s pre-release business and the massive demand for it domestically as well as in overseas is a testament to its crazy demand. With the level of interest in the trade circles, it appears like Salaar will cross RRR in several areas.

Salaar will hit the screens worldwide on 28th September. The movie takes place in a Mafia-dominated world of organized crime. Prabhas, as Salaar is a man on a mission to fulfill a promise made to his dying friend.

Gaandeevadhari Arjuna sees the worst opening in Varun Tej’s career

0

Varun Tej’s latest film, Gandeevadhari Arjuna, directed by Praveen Sattaru, was released in theaters yesterday. The movie is said to be made with the biggest budget in the career of hero Varun Tej but unfortunately, the film opened to a disastrous response from everyone, and it registered the worst opening in Varun Tej’s career.

The film has been made with a massive budget in Varun Tej’s career, but shockingly witnessed a disastrous opening ever in his career. The film has received negligible shares in all territories and the overall worldwide share will be less than 1Cr, which shows what kind of disastrous opening the film has got.

Because of such a bad talk, the movie does not have any chance to witness any jump over the weekend as well. Mostly it will end up less than 4Cr share closing which makes it the biggest disaster ever in Varun Tej’s career.

Nowadays, the pre-release hype is important for any film. Especially if it is a different concept film and tier 2 heroes’ film, then it should gather as much as craze because that will help the box office prospects of the film. If a film fails to do so, then it will be really difficult for the film to get going at the box office. Varun Tej’s latest film, Gandeevadhari Arjuna, has suffered from the same problem.
