Prabhas rethinking about film with Maruthi

0

Radhe Shyam starring Prabhas and Pooja Hegde released on March 11 yesterday in all Indian languages. The film has managed to get a mixed talk. This is his third Pan-Indian film after Blockbuster Baahubali and Action entertainer Sahoo. The film managed to collect around 63 crores share in Telugu Version. The overall theatrical business of this romantic drama is valued at Rs 140Cr. With these numbers its a herculean task for the film to cross the breakeven mark in Telugu Version alone.

Other languages business is very bad. Weekend has been disastrous in all other languages. In Tamil Nadu, the 1st-weekend gross is around Rs 1.5Cr, Kerala with 35 lakhs. Hindi market which was mainly targeted by the makers seems to be also completely disappointing. People who became fans of Prabhas for his action films didn’t like the love story angle of him. Hindi gross is expected to be around 15 crs which is very low for his popularity.

Prabhas who recently okayed a film with Maruthi speculated as Raja Deluxe seems to be re thinking about his decision of working with him. The film which has been planned a quickie has a comedy backdrop. This is also being planned as a Pan-Indian film. Now with the response Radhe Shyam is getting, it looks Prabhas has gone back from his idea of doing this film.

0

Allu Arjun is one of the most popular actors not just in Tollywood but in other industries as well. Especially after Pushpa, a number of directors and actors from various industries have appreciated his work giving rise to multiple interesting combinations. These rumours got further strong with Allu Arjun’s meeting earlier today with ace Bollywood director Sanjay Leela Bhansali.

The ‘Icon Star’ was in Mumbai for a personal trip when he paid a visit to the director’s office. The meteoric rise of his stardom in the north market has made the actor even more confident of Bollywood entry.

Sanjay Leela Bhansali is fresh from the success of his latest film ‘Gangubai Kathiawadi’ starring Alia Bhatt. The film crossed Rs 100 crore mark recently and both Alia and Sanjay were well apprciated. Even Allu Arjun has been harbouring Bollywood aspirations for quite some time. He has stated in past that he is willing to make a direct Bollywood film if the script is right.

If this meeting actually bears any result, it will be a huge boost for the Icon Star and his future plans. Sanjay Leela Bhansali has given Bollywood a star like Ranbir Kapoor and also pushed the career of Ranveer Singh to stardom. Known for big budget historical/period dramas, Bhansali and Allu Arjun does sound like an interesting combo.

But after a low opening day, ET had a decent Day 2 at the box office. Day 3 too was excellent and more than Day 1 in many centres. The Advance bookings are even excellent for Day 4 which is Sunday. Finally, this has been an excellent weekend for Suriya after a long time. The film’s run will now be decided by the weekdays and the coming weekend.

0

Radhe Shyam starring Prabhas and Pooja Hegde released on March 11 yesterday in all Indian languages. The film has managed to get a mixed talk. Radhe Shyam even with present existing Ticket prices is unable to generate revenues that were expected to make it a big hit. Radhe Shyam has managed to collect around 63 crores share in Telugu Version against the theatrical business of 140 crs. It even performed poorly in all the other Indian languages. Hindi market which was mainly targeted by the Radhe Shyam makers seems to be also completely disappointing

All these seem to be haunting the makers of RRR and its director Rajamouli. They might have arrived at a conclusion that with the existing prices it might become a big task for RRR to become a big hit like Baahubali. A delegation of these celebrities had actually met AP CM Jagan once to increase the then-existing ticket prices. CM had agreed to their please and a G.O. was passed for the same too. But Radhe Shyam’s underperforming made RRR makers even scarier.

They have taken the appointment of AP CM Jagan Mohan Reddy to meet him and ask for the same. They are now planning to ask for Rs. 300 ticket price for at least 10 days or for 2 weeks. Well, this seems to be a very big number. Let’s see how the government responds to their pleas.

Prabhas’ Radhe Shyam sees huge fall on Monday at the box office

0

Prabhas’ much anticipated Radhe Shyam hit the screens last Friday and got off to a good start. The film had a strong positive buzz and great pre-release business prior to its release. This led to massive hopes on the films with many expecting blockbuster openings from the film. The audience were eager to catch ‘Darling’ in a romantic role after more than a decade.

While Prabhas’ stardom got the movie off to a good start in the Telugu states, there weren’t many takers for the Hindi version right from day 1. The film saw steep drops over the weekend and Monday was no different in the north markets. The 1st weekend Hindi gross is astonishingly low and is in the range of Rs 15 Cr. This is not even 60% of Prabhas’ previous film Saaho opening day number.

After a decent weekend in Telugu states, Radhe Shyam dropped heavily on Monday. Looking at its current performance breakeven is not at all possible and even collecting Rs 100Cr share is a huge task for the film now. The romantic drama directed by Radha Krishna was well appreciated for its visuals. However, the screenplay and lack of gripping storytelling ended up as major drawbacks. A huge loss is expected for buyers and makers of the film.
