Young hero Sharwanand’s ‘Shatamanam Bhavati’ and Nandamuri Balakrishna’s ‘Gauthami Puthra Satakarni’ fought two festival battles. One is at the Box Office for Pongal festive season and the result is positive for both sides because Satakarni, Shatamanam secured enormous commercial success.
Now that both of them completed a victorious theatrical run, it was coincidental to see the same two heroes pitted against each other for Ugadi festival on small screen battle field. Yes, GPSK and ‘Shatamanam Bhavati’ are broadcasted on MAA TV and ZEE Telugu respectively.
However, the result is varied here in terms of TRP. While Sharwanand bagged a record rating of 18.0, Balayya Babu was way behind with just 5.8. Looks like family audience were inclined more at emotional and feel good entertainer from Sharwa instead of the bloodshed, gore from Balayya.
