A top news channel telecasted a program recently stating Telugu films are lagging behind in getting more collections than Tamil films. The channel said Telugu films are struggling hard to collect Rs.50 crores while Tamil films are collecting Rs.100 crores easily.
Those who watched the program felt the channel could not know the facts on movies collections. As a matter of fact, Telugu movies have been running extremely well comparing with the Tamil movies for the past two to three years. Tamil film makers announce only nett collections of their movies which are more than 40% of the 'shares' mentioned by tollywood film makers. If the nett collections of Telugu films are announced, obviously, the collections of Telugu films will be big numbers than Tamil films.
