Retro Final Advance Bookings: Decent

Suriya’s Retro is the most anticipated film from recent years. Even the hugely publicized Pan Indian movie Kanguva also did not have much craze as this film. Retro’s final advance bookings are decent.

The film is having around 8 Cr advances in Tamil Nadu, while Karnataka, Kerala, and Telugu states collectively contributed around 1 Cr. Overall in India, the film is having advances around 11.5 Cr.

Retro Day 1: Decent Advance Bookings: Needs Strong WOM

The overseas advances are around 3 Cr, which takes total advances to between 14 and 15 Cr. It is not a massive advance number, but it definitely showed that the main audience of the film, Tamil moviegoers, is interested in watching it on big screens.

Suriya’s Retro’s final advance bookings are decent. Kanguva is the biggest opener for the actor with around 40 Cr gross, and the retro movie needs strong WOM to go near that number. Directed by Karthik Subbaraj, this film is crucial for Suriya, as it has been a long time since he has seen a hit at the box office.

Balakrishna Teams Up for Jailer 2

It is widely known that Rajini and Nelson’s Jailer was a big blockbuster at the box office. Apart from the film’s content, the cameos of Mohan Lal, Shiva Raj Kumar worked massively for the film. Both the actors will continue in the sequel and the latest news is Balakrishna also teams up with Rajinikanth for Jailer 2.

During the promotions of the first part, director Nelson Dileep Kumar mentioned that they had planned a cameo of Balayya, but somehow it did not work. Everyone felt that a cameo of Balakrishna would have been a banger, and since the announcement of Jailer’s sequel, audiences started anticipating the presence of the Veera Simha Reddy actor.

Jailer 2: Balakrishna’s Cameo is Confirmed

Recently, the same question was asked to Shiva Raj Kumar during his press interaction for a film event. The latest news is Balakrishna teams up with Rajinikanth for Jailer 2 and his cameo is confirmed in the most awaited sequel.

Certainly, the inclusion of Balayya will give an additional boost to the film. The movie is now in the sets, and the shoot is happening in Kerala, while the makers are planning to release it in summer 2026.

After Years of Wait: Venkatesh-Trivikram Combo Locked

There is a heavy demand for the Venkatesh-Trivikram combination. The film in this crazy combination was announced a long time ago, but it did not materialize until now. Finally, after years of waiting, the Venkatesh-Trivikram combo has been locked.

Venkatesh – Trivikram Combo: The Most Excited Combination In Demand

If we go back, the films for which Trivikram worked as a writer, such as Nuvvu Naaku Nacchav and Malliswari, emerged as all-time classics. But the film in the combination has been postponed for years, and the latest report from the industry circles suggests that finally it’s happening.

Venky fans will be excited with this, as their favorite hero recently scored a big blockbuster with Sankranthiki Vasthunam. After SV, the actor did not officially lock any project. He is free now, and the same can be said for Trivikram, as Allu Arjun chose the Atlee project.

The renowned writer-director will have a lot of time, and because of this gap, finally, after years of waiting, the Venkatesh-Trivikram combo has been locked. The film will go on the floors immediately, and the official announcement will be out anytime soon.

April Done, But Hari Hara Veera Mallu Not Done

Pawan Kalyan’s Hari Hara Veera Mallu was on sets for many years, and it saw multiple postponements continuously. But the team informed everyone that all work will be completed by April and the film will be released on May 9th. However, April is done, but Hari Hara Veera Mallu is not done yet.

Hari Hara Veera Mallu: Continuous Postponements

Though the film’s producer sounded confident about the film’s finishing, nothing came in April from the film, and shooting was not completed either. Even Pawan did not join the film’s sets. Now April is done, but Pawan Kalyan’s Hari Hara Veera Mallu is not done yet.

Now the news is that Pawan Kalyan is allotting the dates in May, and all work will be completed by mid-May itself, and the makers are planning to release the film at the end of May or in the 2nd week of June.

Pawan Kalyan’s Hari Hara Veera Mallu Out Of May

If the HHVM team fails to release the film before June, then the OTT deal also might get canceled, and at the same time, the film’s theatrical business is also facing issues, as the makers are quoting huge prices, but the distributors are not showing interest in buying the film for such massive prices.

Because the film took a long time on the sets and faced continuous postponements, it did not even carry a huge buzz. The team needs to complete the shooting and then needs to release a sensational trailer to get everything on track.

We need to wait and see whether AM Ratnam and the team can complete everything by the middle of May.

It’s a Win-Win Deal with Athadu Re-Release

It’s a Win-Win Deal with Athadu Re-Release

The re-release trend in Telugu cinema started with Pokiri a few years back. From that time, many films have been re-released, in which a few worked massively while others did not. However, Mahesh Babu’s Athadu Re-Release has been the most demanded, and it got a win-win deal for the makers.

Astonishingly, not only SSMB fans but all audiences are waiting for the re-release of Athadu. Finally, the deal is said to be closed, and it is planned to be re-released on Mahesh Babu’s birthday this year.

Athadu Re-Release registers a record business

The re-release rights of the classic film are said to be sold for around 3 Cr. This is not a normal business, and it is a record price for a re-release. There are solid chances for the buyers to recover, as Murari, which was re-released on Mahesh’s birthday, collected close to 10 Cr gross.

Athadu Re-Release: A Win-Win Deal for Buyers and Producers

So, Athadu will easily surpass that figure, and that is why this re-release is a lucrative deal for the makers. Because, for the producer of the film, Murali Mohan, the rerelease deal is for a particular period of time, around 1 year. 

So after the period gets over, the rights will be with him, and he can sell them after a few years, as Athadu always ages with time. In this way, Mahesh Babu’s Athadu Re-Release is a win-win deal for both buyers and producers.

Mixed advances For Suriya’s Retro

Suriya’s Retro is all set to be released in theaters worldwide in another 24 hours. The film’s advance bookings are having a surprising trend. The film was expected to be a big opener at the box office. However, Suriya’s Retro is having mixed advances.

Because of the actor-director combination, it was expected to have very good overseas advances, but the film’s overseas advances are very low. In Tamil Nadu, the film is carrying good advances and is set for Suriya’s biggest start.

Suriya’s Retro Bookings: Superb in Tamil – Low at others

Even the Telugu markets are seeing low bookings for the film, as the trailer did not work as expected for Telugu audiences. At the same time, the competition with Nani’s HIT 3 is affecting this love action drama a lot. 

Also, the bookings in the rest of the Indian markets are not very big. Suriya’s Retro is having mixed advances, and with this, the film definitely needs unanimous positive WOM to put the box office on fire.

As said above, the Karthik Subbaraj directorial is expected to be the proper comeback film for Suriya, and the advantage is that it is releasing on a public holiday. So, if early shows open with positive talk, then they can gather numbers.

Fans Unhappy With NTR Neel Release Date

NTR—Prashanth Neel’s film, tentatively titled Dragon, is one of the most anticipated films for next year, as with the combination itself, the movie carries a massive buzz. The fans are unhappy with the NTR-Neel release date.

The film was initially planned for a 2026 Sankranthi release, which is a very good date as it is a big festival season. But due to a delay in shooting, the film was postponed, and recently, Tark and team officially announced the release date as 25th June, 2026.

NTR Fans are not happy with the release date of NTR-Neel

The June end release does not offer any public holidays at the release time, and normally, it is not a big season to take any advantage. Another issue is that the film has to do well in global markets, but at that period, many big-budget Hollywood films will be releasing in theaters, which will definitely have an impact on overseas releases and some impact on India too.

NTR-Neel Movie’s release date is not such a bad date

So, looking at all these situations, fans are unhappy with the NTR-Neel (Dragon) release date, as they want this film to shake the box office at all markets, and that is why they want it to be released at the best time.

But one advantage for NTR 31 is, as the team locked a normal release date, there will be no competition for the film from any Indian film in all languages, at least for 2 weeks. Prabhas and Nag Ashwin’s Kalki was also released during the same period and joined the 1000 Cr club. So, NTR-Neel definitely has all the chances to repeat the magic.

Thudarum Storms Towards 200 Cr Club

Mohanlal’s Thudarum is having an excellent run in the theaters. The film was released with the least hype, but with the unanimous WOM, it is performing exceptionally well. After having a superb first weekend, Thudarum storms towards the 200 Cr club now.

Thudarum Box Office: Extraordinary Hold On Weekdays

Thudarum shows an unbelievable hold on weekdays. Yesterday, the film stunned everyone with unbelievable hold, and today it is continuing the same, as the numbers are the same at yesterday’s levels. 

By today, the film’s worldwide gross will be around 95 Cr, and tomorrow itself the movie will join the 100 Cr club, making it the 2nd fastest after Empuraan. The fans of Lalettan are extremely happy as Mohanlal’s Thudarum storms towards the 200 Cr club.

Mohanlal’s Thudarum: 200 Cr Target

At this pace, the film is all set to enter the 200 Cr club, and in Kerala, the film is set for a 50 Cr collection in the 1st week itself, and it is on track to become the 1st 100 Cr. Directed by Tharun Moorthy, the film was made on a very reasonable budget, and it is a big, profitable venture at the box office now.
