November 9th releases of 'Damarukam' and 'Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum' are seen as a rare fight of Stars at BO in recent times. As festive Diwali season will become more delighted with presence of two such big flicks, analysts are busy calculating on who will have an edge over whom.
If the long delays and postponements of 'Damarukam' have affected the general mindset of audience towards the film, 'KVJ' stands purely on the intellectual concept of director Krish. While VFX and presence of Stars Nagarjuna, Anushka might pull enough of audience to theatres in first week, long run depends upon overall subject strength because director Srinivas Reddy is inexperienced in handling huge budgets. On the other hand, instead of hero Rana it is director Krish's previous track record of 'Gamyam' and 'Vedam' which were good hits in metros will attract huge inflows. Of course in lower class centers, the ability of audience to grasp Krish's intellectual thoughts will decide the BO result.
