In a never seen manner four crazy projects hit the screens this Sankranthi. Fortunately, none of the movies got disaster talk and it could be termed as a racy start for Tollywood this year. However, exact fate of the movies will be decided by next week. Let's have a look at the current statuses of Sankranthi movies.
'Naannaku Prematho' was off with mixed reports. Considering the first and second day collections, the film stands next to 'Baahubali', 'Srimanthudu' and 'Bruce Lee'. The collections are decent in India and are good at Overseas.
'Dictator' stands the second biggest opener among Natasimham Nandamuri Balakrishna's films next to 'Legend'. 'Dictator' collected Rs.5.80 crores on day one while 'Legend' collected around Rs.7 crores.
Having been made with a shoestring budget of just Rs.7 crores, 'Express Raja' has reportedly recovered more than half its investments so far. The movie gets profits by the end of this weekend. As such, the movie can get the credit of the first winner of this season.
After a long gap, King Nagarjuna's film got unanimous positive talk as a solo hero with 'Soggade Chinni Nayana'. The movie opened with packed houses, overloads and heavy returns. The movie is expected to stand as the season's biggest blockbuster. Let's wait for more days to know the exact status of the movie at the ticket windows.
It is being heard that all the four movies have done great business on the day of Sankranthi and the momentum will be continued till Sunday.
