Telugu States Box Office: February Disaster, Can March Bring Relief?
This year tollywood starts on a decent note with Sankranti Releases. Hanuman, Guntur Kaaram, Naa Saami Ranga and Saindhav. Hanuman became a sensational blockbuster, while Guntur kaaram works for Andhra pradesh buyers. Naa Saami ranga achieved breakeven for buyers and Saindhav was a flop. It was a decent Sankranti for buyers even though after sankranti releases did not work .
The sankranti releases covers January month. But February is a disastrous month for buyers and audience. Many small and medium budget films releases in February but none of the film fails to put decent collection after 1st weekend. Many films even crashes from opening day.
February Releases consists of a Big Budget film Eagle which is a flop and medium budget films like Ambajipeta Marriage Band, Yatra 2, Only Ooru Peru Bhairavakona. In medium budget films only Ambajipeta Marriage Band and Ooru Peru Bhairavakona had just good collections comparing to January releases. And February also have small budget film releases like Siddharth Roy, Masthu Shades Unnai Ra, Sundaram Master, Dheera, Kismat, and Bootcut Balaraju but fails to get audience to theaters in Telugu States.
Only Ooru Peru Bhairavakona settles to average – above average status comparing with other movies. All other releases are big failures at Box office. Now thetares owners hoping March releases can gives some relief. Varun Tej’s Operation Valentaine and Vennela Kishore’s Chari 111 releasing tomorrow. Operation Valentaine may get good bookings but public talk matters for collections.
Also, vyooham releasing on 2nd March which dont have much buzz. Bhimaa, Gaami, Premalu Telugu dub releasing on 8th March which have good buzz and might also get good colelctions. Sree Vishnu’s Om Bheem Bush releasing on 22nd March , Tillu square releasing on 29th March. These are notable releases in March.
