After his next film, Waltair Veerayya getting good success, the biggest mistake done by Chiranjeevi was blaming Koratala Siva. In multiple events and interviews, he indirectly blamed Koratala for Acharya failure. However, Koratala Siva kept quiet and did not react or gave any statement on the issue.

During the time, not only anti fans, even the regular audience did not like the comments of Chiranjeevi on Koratala Siva. Everybody knows that Koratala Siva is not a bad director as he scored 4 successful films before Acharya and the 4 films are the biggest hits in the respective hero’s career and for those 4 movies no producer or hero complained about Koratala Siva.

Sunny Deol’s Gadar 2 became a surprise blockbuster. The film was released on August 11th. With a sequel hype and being released on August 15th weekend, it was expected to be performed at a good level, but no one in his dreams would have imagined this kind of excellent collections for a Sunny Deol starrer.

Yesterday Gadar 2 collected around 56Cr which is the highest single day net collection until now for Bollywood, and it had already crossed Sunday 52 Cr. Total 5 days collections is 227 Cr.

Because of the competition with OMG 2, the film faced screen shortage on Independence Day. Almost all the single screens ran at full occupancy and multiplexes at 90% occupancy, which is a rarity for a Hindi film in such a period of OTT domination and Post pandemic effects.

The Bollywood trade is of an opinion that If Gadar 2 had been a solo release, it would have easily crossed 70Cr yesterday. On the other hand, OMG 2 had an average opening on day 1 but thanks to great word of mouth, it held its ground at the box office. With OMG 2 and Mammoth Jailer in south India, Gadar 2 could not get enough screens and ended up collecting a little more than 225cr in 5 days at the Indian Box-office, which itself is a huge feat.

Now it will be interesting to see how it will hold on weekends and if it crosses Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan to become the highest grosser of all time.
