On the second day the film saw a further drop and received just 21 lakhs. This is a proof that the Bollywood audience has completely rejected the movie. With this result, Chatrapathi has taught a big lesson to the Bellamkonda Srinivas who was in a delusion that he has good market in Hindi.

But in the interviews he said that he is going to Bollywood and planning to settle there. Now Chatrapati has become a big disaster and everyone is thinking what would be his step? Will he give a comeback to Tollywood or will he still stay in Hindi Cinema?

Chatrapathi Hindi Stars Srinivas Bellamkonda, Nushrratt Bharuccha in the lead roles along with Bhagya Sree, Sharad Kelkar, Karan Singh Chhabra, Freddy Daruwala, Rajendra Gupta, and Rajesh Sharma in other important roles. VV Vinayak directed this film and Dhaval Jayanthilal Gada, Akshay Jayanthilal Gada are the producers. Tanishk Bagchi scored the music of this movie while Nizar Shafi took care of Cinematography, Niranjan Devaramane handled the editing.

Let’s wait and watch whether Bellamkonda Srinivas makes a comeback into the Tollywood or he remains in a distant dream of getting successful in Hindi Cinema.
