Siddhu Jonnalagadda’s Tillu franchise is one of the most happening ones in Tollywood right now. The two films have both created sensations at the box office and pushed the young actor towards stardom. With two films in the series being big hits, the third movie Tillu Three has also just been confirmed.

Producer Naga Vamsi confirmed in his latest interview that the story work of the third movie of this franchis is in progress. Tillu Three certainly has the potential to open like big-star movies. Whether they stick only to Telugu or target pan-India remains to be seen.

Mallik Ram directed Tillu Square co-starring Anupama Prameswaran while the first film DJ Tillu was handled by Vimal Krishna and starred Neha Shetty. This romantic crime comedy franchise is produced by Naga Vamsi under Sithara Entertainments. Siddhu Jonnalagadda’s entertaining performance and comedy portions have resulted in both films garnering success.


Devara Roars, Game Changer Struggles

0

Devara roars, while Game Changer struggles at the USA Bookings. Definitely, Ram Charan’s Game Changer can not be compared with event films like Pushpa 2 and Kalki 2 in terms of openings/ advance sales, but if we compare factors like budget and director combination, Game Changer is a bigger film than Devara.

Devara opened very hugely in Telugu and had a good impact in Hindi as well. If we compare the USA numbers, Devara opened with a sensational 2.85M premiers, but Game Changer is not getting closer to that number according to the pre-sales. Devara roars, while Game Changer struggles at the USA Bookings.

10 days before its release, Devara’s Pre- Sales for Premiers were at 1.5M while Game Changer has not even crossed 350K which means its presales are just 1/4th of Devara, which is disappointing. Even if we put the comparison with Devara aside, Game Changer should at least open with 1.5M range Premiers for the money involved.

0

Naga Vamsi’s satires on Bollywood are now going viral on social media. It is widely known that young Telugu producer Suryadevara Naga Vamsi is known for his straightforward nature in giving opinions or statements about his or other movies. Recently, he took part in a roundtable conversation with the other Indian producers such as Boney Kapoor, Archana (Producer of The GOAT), Actor Siddharth, and others. In that conversation, Vamsi spoke about Bollywood in a satirical manner.

Speaking to Boney Kapoor, Naga Vamsi said that Bollywood still seems to be stuck in a stereotype somewhere else, and right now, it is the South Indian makers who are showing a new path to Bollywood. Boney Kapoor disagreed to it and said that even now everyone is trying to do something new in Hindi Cinema. Vamsi mentioned that the senior producer had to give examples of RRR, Baahubali, Pushpa, Salaar and Animal, which are all made by south makers.  Naga Vamsi’s satires on Bollywood are now going viral on social media.

As part of the discussions, Naga Vamsi gave a counter to Bollywood’s top producer Boney Kapoor, saying that even if he feels a bit embarrassing, it is true that Bollywood makers are still stuck in making movies which cater to public in Bandra and Juhu. It is the south makers who are now showing a new path. Boney Kapoor was not happy with the way Vamsi spoke and he seemed to be irritated.

Meanwhile, like in any issue, the social media is divided on this issue, with some supporting the Lucky Bashkar Producer while some opposing his way of speaking. A few netizens felt that he could have said the same thing in a different and polit way. 

Game Changer Andhra Pradesh Ticket Prices: A Middle Ground Between Devara and Pushpa 2

0

With Ram Charan’s Game Changer days away from release, all eyes are on the kind of hikes the film will receive from the AP and Telangana governments. The recent incidents in Telangana have already cast a shadow of doubt over the Telangana ticket rate hikes and it needs to be seen how Dil Raju resolves it.

Regarding AP ticket prices, recent Tollywood biggies like Devara and Pushpa 2 could be used as benchmarks for Game Changer ticket prices. Devara makers opted for a hike of Rs 110/- for single screens and Rs 135/- for multiplexes. Pushpa 2 makers went for a hike of Rs150/- single screens and Rs 200/- for multiplexes

Dil Raju and Co. may likely increase the prices for single screens by Rs 135/—and multiplexes by Rs 180. Game Changer may be looking to get hike rates closer to Puhspa 2. However, it could be challenging as the Ram Charan film is not a solo release and is hitting the screens along with Daaku Maharaj and Sankranthiki Vastunnamu. Higher ticket prices might impact Game Changer’s collections.

In Telangana, Revanth Reddy has already declared that there will be no hikes and special shows. We now need to see how Dil Raju manages a positive result for his film.

Suriya’s Vaadi Vaasal in three parts

0

Kollywood Actor Suriya and Vetrimaaran collaborated for their film, Vaadivaasal long ago. The film however had faced delays in the shoot owing to postponement as well with Vetrimaaran concentrating more on his Viduthalai series. With Viduthalai 2 releasing recently, Vetrimaaran is now buckling up to take Vaadivaasal on floors.

The film is also said to be shot in three parts on the lines of Vetrimaaran’s Viduthalai series. First part of Vaadivaasal is expected to come in 2025. Vetrimaaran has to be careful now with this plan since his Viduthalai 2 which released recently has bombed at the box office becoming a flop. Interestingly, Mufasa: The Lion King did well compared to Viduthalai 2 in Tamil Nadu.

On the other hand, Suriya received a shock in the form of Kanguva this year which became the biggest disaster of Kollywood. So, it will be an interesting combination of the duo who must give their all to taste success.

Will Vidaamuyarchi benefit Game Changer?

0

Game Changer starring Ram Charan and Vidaamuyarchi starring Ajith are set for a box office clash in Tamil Nadu this Sankranthi. Vidaamuyarchi slightly gets an edge there securing 2/3rd screens which impacts Game Changer in a big way. But there is no confirmed news of Vidaamuyarchi arriving for the Sankranthi going by the slow pace of promotional activities. Will this benefit Game Changer is the question now.

The film hasn’t still gone for the Censor board approval and certification. The Trailer of the film was also supposed to release on New Year which is now said to have postponed. The release period is getting close and the makers must act quick to start the promotional activities which add up to the hype and buzz.

If Vidaamuyarchi gets postponed then it will definitely be a big and solo release slot for Game Changer. The film will secure major screens in this case and with the inclusion of Director Shankar, Tamil version may perform well. It all depends on the makers of Vidaamuyarchi’s choice now.
