The hundred crore collection club started from Bollywood. But there were doubts if the Tollywood can get the same 100 crore collections with just two Telugu states.
But it became a reality in no time. Allu Aravind the producer achieved the first 100 crore collection with Aamir Khan for the movie Gajini and later things followed with several movies.
Salman Khan got 300 to 500 crore collections in several movies to his credit. Baahubali has got more than 500 crore collections and the rest is history.
In Tollywood again Allu Aravind has collected 100 crore for Magadheera with Ramcharan. Then the Baahubali followed for Prabhas. Mahesh Babu got 100 crore collections for 3 of his movies. After that NTR got the 100 crores for Janata Garage. Then comes Allu Arjun for his recent movie Ala Vaikuntapuram Lo.
The stamina of the Telugu movies has rised to 100 crores with directors like Rajamouli, Koratala Shiva and Trivikram Srinivas. Getting a hundred crore with a limited market is a great achievement for the Tollywood.
Let’s hope the industry will flourish like this for decades. But it should not be limited to a few families who have studios and other infrastructure. All the talented must get due recognition and also the opportunity.
