Tollywood Family driven Czars deny Prabhas his CROWN - REAL TRUTH OUT
Why is Tollywood Czars denying Prabhas his due ?
Prabhas only link to Tollywood before became an actor was that his Uncle was Krishnam Raju. Now the Banjara Hills Family driven Tollywood biz and myths that they have built is falling apart. So start a whisper campaign and make it look ggeninue.
The other day, I was told by a well-informed trade tracker in Hyderabad about Kalki box office. His contention was that Kalki is a hit outside India and within India and especially for AP and TS distributors, it is a flop. I for one knew that in Kerala and Tamil Nadu, the buyers made their money and so I asked him how he arrived at this figure. He said that the distributors who bought Kalki themselves had given the numbers. Among the ones who gave the numbers was a `gentleman’ who comes from a family of Stars – studios and theatres.
Now from a tracker in Mumbai, I get these figures. North Indian box office collections have made South films a Pan Indian hit and this includes Bahubaali – RRR and Pushpa. Now let me give you the figures. In India, the Hindi version alone is eyeing to enter the 300 crore club. On 5th Saturday,, it witnessed an unbelievable jump of 163.15% as the collection went from 76 lakh (fifth Friday) to 2 crores (fifth Saturday), taking the estimated collection to 284.05 crores net (31 days). Including taxes, the gross domestic collection stands at 335.17 crores. This what Sacnik reports and does not include overseas collections of Hindi.
• After 32 days, Kalki Telugu Nett stands at Rs 281 .81 cr and like in Hindi there is a big jump on weekends with last one getting Rs 1.38 cr. So much for a FLOP film. Now for other languages ; Tamil – 35.30 crores
• Malayalam – 24 crores
• Kannada – 5.25 crores
This feat has not been achieved by any Telugu STAR in Bollywood and Prabhas has shown with Bahubaali , Salaar and even Saaho that Hindi belt is strongly with him. So next best is to say that he is a flop in AP and TS and why? The distributors did not recover the investment as the film was over priced. So even Rs Rs 281 cr net has not made distributors happy ? So what are the prices that each territory in these two States sold for ? Till August 15th, there is no threat to Kalki in North and it might beat Jawan collections.
It seems a comedy- horror film film Rajasaab of Prabhas directed by Maruti and KGF Yash Bhai Toxic directed by Geetu Mohandas are releasing on April 10th next year. Both are not big budgeted films like what these Stars had before.
