Dil Raju is a true Box Office magician with magical wand in his theater chain. True that Chiranjeevi, Balakrishna are huge stars than Sharwanand and ‘Khaidi No 150, Gauthami Puthra Satakarni’ opened to more positivity than ‘Shatamanam Bhavati’ but that’s not going to be an end for Dil Raju’s film.
Yes, ‘Shatamanam Bhavati’ is edging on the healthy tag of emotional and wholesome family entertainer which has been Dil Raju’s forte from long. More than this, our mighty producer and genius distributor blocked all those high capacity, well equipped theaters in his network only for ‘Shatamanam Bhavati.’
Family audiences prefer to watch films in their nearby locality and in a neatly furnished theater. As such Dil Raju in prior made sure that his film occupies best of the theaters in cities and towns. For example, three to four of the high volume single screens in Punjagutta to Kukatpally belt like Gokul, Sree Ramulu, Vishwanath and Cinepolis are reserved for ‘Shatamanam.’ Revenues from these single screen theaters are more than enough to make the most of Hyderabad collections.
