None of the movies from creative Krish till date have got on to earth shattering record openings. For the first time, he directed a super star hero that is Balakrishna and that too with a well built content based on first Telugu warrior emperor who entwined bits and pieces of India together into a unified India.
What mattered the most is Krish directed ‘Gauthami Puthra Satakarni’ in his own, experienced style without sidetracking for the sake of appeasing Nandamuri Fans community.
‘There are contextual instances where Balayya rendered his trademark dialogues twirling the moustache and thumping the thigh but overall it’s the content rich, intense Krish’s emotional presentation makes a major impact. Just like Krish’s old films ‘Gamyam, Vedam’ and recent ‘Kanche,’ there will be a sustained long run for GPSK in theaters,’ an insider talk in film circles.
Balakrishna is a strong opener in two Telugu states. His star image can directly help ‘Satakarni’ to create new records from day 1 till first weekend. After first weekend, it is brand Krish to tug the audience and especially in Overseas his incredible image will be the savior. All in all, GPSK is anomalous combo of a class Krish with mass Balayya.
