Nikhil’s much-anticipated action thriller Spy was released on June 29th in theatres and opened to largely negative reviews. The film managed to pull the audiences into the theatres on the opening day but failed to create good word of mouth. Read our review of Spy here.
After Nikhil’s humungous success with Karthikeya 2, not only in the Telugu states but also in the North belts, everyone felt that Spy has a great chance to emulate the success of Karthikeya 2.
This is because, much like Karthikeya 2, even Spy had a strong patriotical connection. The movie was promoted as the search to uncover ‘India’s Best Kept Secret’, Subhash Chandra Bose.
But when audiences went to watch the movie, they felt cheated. As the story and content were very different from the promotional campaign. As a result, it was unable to engage and interest the audiences.
Now, the movie is heading toward a big failure in all languages, and mainly in Hindi, it has failed to create any dent at the box office. It has opened well in Telugu but the numbers are quickly dwindling, with a huge drop on Friday. It looks like Spy is another lost opportunity for Nikhil and a movie heading toward failure.
Spy also stars Iswarya Menon, Makarand Deshpande, Abhinav Gomatham, and many others. It has been written by K Rajashekar Reddy and directed by Garry BH. The music is by Sricharan Pakala.
