Ajith’s Valimai crosses 150 cr gross mark at Box-office !

0

Ajith and Karthikeya starrer Valimai opened very big on day 1. The film collected more than 30 crs share on the opening day itself. However the film lost the pace and started to decline after the weekend. The film projected as racing drama completely relied on action stunts. But the film perfomed well in the second weekend surprisingly. The film generated some repeat viewing. Now Valimai crossed 150 crore gross mark at the box-office after the second weekend.

Valimai’s total theatrical gross business is valued at nearly 187 crores. The film needs to gross 37 crores more to achieve breakeven status. The film grossed nearly 100 crs at Tamil Nadu box-office alone. It needs to gross another 15 crore to hit breakeven status there. It grossed nearly 4.75 crores in AP/TS and needs to collect more than 1 crore to achieve at least breakeven status.

These numbers are not sufficient for hit status. The film needs to gross more than 50 crores to achieve a hit status. The film having a action and motorbike racing concept might have not worked well with audience. Ajith’s star image is pulling the film to 150 cr gross mark. We have to wait and see where the film might end up.

The wait is worth for Radhe Shyam and RRR !

0

Andhra Pradesh government on Monday approved a new G.O. on permitting new shows and ticket price hikes. Big budget film like Radhe Shyam and RRR waited and postponed their film’s release for the ticket price hike. It looks like the wait is worth for Radhe Shyam and RRR ! Earlier released film Bheemla Nayak went ahead with the release without any hikes in ticket prices. This proved bad for Bheemla Nayak. But Radhe Shyam and RRR makers waited for the right time and are pumped up with joy.

Radhe Shyam and RRR are made on a budget of more than 100 crores as claimed by makers. However with the existing prices in AP, it looks very difficult for these films to achieve a hit status. So they postponed their films many times until the release of new G.O. by the government. Stars like Prabhas, Mahesh Babu, Chiranjeevi and Rajamouli met AP CM Jagan Mohan Reddy in person and appealed for the same. Looks like the government agreed to their pleas.

However there are some more things in G.O. The G.O. mainly concentrates on encourage small budgeted films. One of the conditions is High Budget Films (100 Cr without remuneration for both hero and director) will be allowed Special Rates only if 20% shooting is done in AP. As 20% of Radhe Shyam and RRR movies are not shot in AP , according to G.O. these two films are not eligible to get the special hikes. But AP Cinematography Minister Perni Nani made it clear that Radhe Shyam and RRR are exempted from this G.O. This made the makers have some relief. Both films can now have a special show and ticket hike prices. Radhe Shyam is slated for release on March 11 and RRR on 25 March.

Pawan Kalyan’s Bheemla Nayak Makers take back step due to Radhe Shyam & RRR Release

0

Power star Pawan kalyan and Rana Daggubati starrer Bheemla Nayak Hindi version was supposed to release simultaneously with Telugu version but delayed due to few reasons. The makers released the Hindi trailer of the film recently as they thought of releasing the film in March 1st week. It seems that the makers have taken a back step with having the release of Radhe Shyam and RRR in March. 

With Zero promotions, it will be a blunder to release in Hindi. Though the audience know Rana Daggubati well with his films in Hindi, Pawan kalyan is familiar only for his craze but not with his films. So if makers want to generate money they have to release with proper promotions. It is heard that Bheemla Nayak may release in month of April after the storm of Radhe shyam and RRR calms down. 

A remake of the 2020 Malayalam film Ayyapanum Koshiyam, Bheemla Nayak  showcases a clash between sub-inspector Bheemla Nayak and ex-havildar, Daniel Shekar aka Danny after the latter crosses the border from Telangana into Andhra Pradesh in an inebriated State. The film is produced by S Naga Vamsi under his banner Sithara Entertainments and is directed by Saagar K Chandra. Also starring Nithya Menen and Samyukta Menon, ‘Bheemla Nayak’ will be released in Hindi by B4U and Grand Master.

After a couple of average ventures from Megastar Mammooty, he came back with a bang in the form of Bheeshma Parvam. He showed everybody why he is the recipient of 3 National Awards and uncountable state awards. His performance in the film has been receiving a tremendous response from fans and movie lovers in general.

The first glimpses and the trailer of the film helped the film to open to tremendous collections on the opening day. The movie enjoyed a terrific start and continued its hold on the second and third day, with a terrific Saturday.

Bheeshma Parvam showed no signs of stopping on Sunday either and collected massive numbers on Sunday. The film has set a new all-time record for any Malayalam movie in Kerala by crossing Mohanlal’s Lucifer. Bheeshma Parvam has collected a 1st weekend gross of 22 crores, beating Lucifer.

It is also important to mention that Bheeshma Parvam hugely benefited from a 100 % occupancy allowance in theatres. The previous blockbuster from Kerala, Hridyam was unfortunately released with only 50 % occupancy in Kerala.

Bheeshma Parvam also comprises a stellar cast of Soubin Shahir, Sreenath Bhasi, and Shine Tom in lead roles. Amal Neerad is the director of the film. Sushin Shyam is the music director of the movie.

But in a special note, Minister Perni Nani made it clear that Radhe Shyam and RRR are exempted from this G.O. These two movies can have special rates according to new G.O. and five shows are permitted. He also mentioned that the conditions will be strictly followed for the new films that will be produced from here after.
