Mythri Movie Makers who entered the distribution business this Sankranthi collected around 200 crore initially for the two movies that they produced.
Dil Raju who released Varasudu in Telugu failed but got good collections in Tamil. Dil Raju is a loser this Sankranthi with Mythri doing the distribution on their own.
On the whole, both the biggies scored their best box office figures and the films numbers are holding well. 200 crore plus revenue by both films is a rare feat. Chiranjeevi and Balayya made history this Sankranti.
Meanwhile, Vaarasudu turning out to be a colossal disaster. This is ending up as flop for Dil Raju in Telugu. Even Ajith’s Thegimpu failed to draw footfalls into cinemas.
The timing of Santosh Sobhan’s Kalyanam Kamaneeyam is being blamed by the trade. The film became hit by the clash of the megastars that is Balakrishna and Chiranjeevi.
This Sankranti, audiences gave thumbs up to the commercial and mass films. Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja had a good Sankranthi with Dhamaka and Waltair Veerayya.
