Audience are not interested to watch small movies in theatres now

Can you name a small movie that did well at box office? Took some time to think and even a movie strikes, you found out that was way long right? Yes it seems like the small movies era has took a break.

Few years ago a lot of small movies created sensation at box office. Taking them as inspiration a lot of young talent stepped into industry. The young generation directors like venkatesh Maha, Swaroop RSJ, Sandeep Raj and others have beautiful debuts to Telugu industry. But in few years especially after Corona the picture of small movies turned upside down.

During Covid, theatres were closed and people started watching movies on OTT platforms. Hence a lot of movies postponed for theatre release and some are released in OTT. Especially small movies released in OTT and people slowly got used to the OTT era. After Covid all the big movies made their way out and with the star heroes advantage they managed to pull the crowds to theatres.

But small movies failed in this area. They couldn’t bring the audience to theatres. Yesterday three Movies released and all three failed to get good numbers. Suma’s Jayamma Panchayati, Vishwak Sen’s AVAK, Sei Vishnu’s Bhale Thandanana despite having popular actors failed to attract audience to theatres. In recent times all the small movies are failing big time at Box office. So let’s see how long this trend goes.

Sarkaru Vaari Paata director P. Parasuram was once a small budget film director. All his films starred only medium range heroes except Ravi Teja who is also a tier 2 range hero. He has got a golden opportunity by directing Mahesh Babu for Sarkaru Vaari Paata. This was due to the success he got with Geetha Govindam. Now he is set to direct Naga Chaitanya for his next film.

After doing a big budget film, every director wants to continue the same momentum by directing another star hero with big film. But as per planning, Parasuram should direct Naga Chaitanya before beginning Sarkaru Vaari Paata. The cancellation of Mahesh Babu-Vamshi Paidipally film project brought Parasuram on board. Naga Chaitanya too seems to have told Parasuram to go ahead with Sarkaru Vaari Paata as that will be great opportunity for Parasuram. Parasuram promised Naga Chaitanya to do his next film for him. Parasuram too confirmed this now. It is very good to see a director standing by his words.
