Master all time second highest record opening after Sarkar - Hit of Flop in TN ?

 

Master success has made Bollywood to acknowledge the fact that it was the South Star’s draw with the public that beat the fears and brought crowds to theaters. Multiplex national chains including IMAX which had not opened all screen in South, have done so as more than 5 day advance booking is full. BookMyShow online booking sold 1 million tickets before opening. The tag Thalaiva, Thalaivar, Thala, SuperStar which were mentioned in a sarcastic manner by Mumbai trade pundits and Bollywood, now acknowledge that neither Salman, Akshay or SRK can pull off such a feat.

Master’s success becomes all the more the success of Vijay- Vijay Sethupathi, as the content is weak and offers not even the usual formula to keep fans happy. The crowds came in to see Thalapathy on screen, after 10 month gap. PVR with 275 screens , has full house for shows till Monday. Trade says that with 50% occupancy, the response from public is 80% of Vijay’s previous film `Bigil’. In Kerala and Karnataka, there is no competition from any Star’s of that region. In Andhra and Telangana, Ravi Teja’s Krack and Ram’s RED are the Telugu films that are a competition.
