Viswam starring Gopichand and Vettaiyan starring Rajinikanth released this weekend. Both films achieved an average word of mouth and reviews and didn’t open big at the box office. But both these films witnessed better occupancies and shows registering housefulls. Devara stands as the main reason behind audiences watching these two films. Devara with its long run has been boosting both Viswam and Vettaiyan.
Devara already had a good run and is still continuing in some theatres. People who wanted to watch Devara had to go for other films with Devara having only limited numbers of screens. Devara is registering big matinees in every theatre in Telugu States today thanks to the holiday advantage of Dussehra. These overflows have come as a great opportunity for both Viswam and Vettaiyan.
This phenomenon is expected to continue for tomorrow as well due to Sunday effect. The other releases, Janaka Ayithe Ganaka and Maa Nanna Super Hero didn’t make it big having lower occupancies and not so encourage talk.
