We do not know if it is truth or just for the sake of hype, but the iSmart team has announced that they have collected around Rs 56 crore so far for the iSmart Shankar released on 18nth.
There are instances where there are announcements that the share is Rs 100 crore so on and so forth. Some times it is real and some times it is just hype for the sake of publicity.
There is no check on these announcements as the producers and makers of the movies can say that they have done it for the sake of publicity and attracting more audience.
But one thing is real that the movie has got a good response from the audience and the timing is right. Bonalu month has brought a lot of bonanza for the movie. It has got Bonalu songs and the local old city backdrop. Both the director Puri Jagannath and the hero Ram have done well for the movie and in fact, have gone that extra mile to get a required hit after a long time.
Puri has given a row of flops after Temper. Temper story was from Vakkantham and puri directed it. Charmee who has invested in ismart in the name of Puri connects has got her money back. We hope Puri will also purchase a new house as he has sold his house earlier for producing a movie with his son which was a big flop.
