It is very well known to everyone that the maverick director SS Rajamouli has taken the Telugu Cinema to the unexpected levels with his films like Baahubali 2 and RRR. While Baahubali 2 had the entire Indian nation going bonkers over it, his action epic RRR starring Ram Charan and NTR has made it to the global arena, and received international acclaim. However, still The Tamil Cinema market remains larger than the Telugu Cinema market.

Yes, there is no doubt that Rajamouli has raised the Telugu market to a new level, but the thing is other star hero films are still doing the normal range business for the Telugu market. The Tollywood films are doing good in the Hindi market, which is helping the bigger numbers bur if you take only regional numbers the picture is different.

Until now, no non SSR Movie has collected more than 300Cr gross in Telugu regions but the films in Tamil like Vikram , Ponniyin Selvan and now Rajinikanth’s Jailer have collected more than 300Cr gross with just the Tamil version itself.

Even in overseas the market of Non SSR films is not at all increased even the films with positive talk are just doing around 5 million dollars whereas Tamil star movies are doing 15Million dollars effortlessly. The Telugu filmmakers should step up and make better quality films to lessen this gap. Until then, the Tamil cinema market remains larger than the Telugu cinema market.

On the other side, Chiranjeevi’s Bhola Shankar has completely crashed, as the noon shows of Monday are reporting disastrous numbers in all areas. Getting the rents for the theaters is an itself is like a big task for the film and the movie mostly will end up its run by tomorrow.

There is no doubt that both Chiranjeevi and Rajinikanth are superstars. Neither of these two can be underestimated for the success they have achieved. However, the choices of films has made the difference for the results of Bhola Shankar and Jailer.

While Rajinikanth played his age and appeared as an old man in Jailer, Chiranjeevi still has not come out of the middle-aged roles and formulaic potboilers. The audiences do not object to watch commercial content, but the packaging should be trendy and a bit exciting, which is completely missing in Bhola Shankar.
