Natasimham Nandamuri Balakrishna's 'Gauthamiputra Satakarni' is one of the most awaited films of Tollywood. Inside reports say one of the key persons from the film's team wants the film to release on the same day or a day prior to the release date of Megastar Chiranjeevi's 'Khaidi Number 150'. The makers have also thought of their film to get more hype with this competition.
However, there's one biggest threat for GPS with this competition which the trade people are worrying about. If at all 'Khaidi Number 150's release date is locked to January 11, GPS may also release on the same day or 10th of January.
But then, the days between 1st and 12th January are considered to be deadly unseason for Telugu films. Especially, general audience are reluctant watching films in this season. Moreover, they may not prefer watching the historical film unless the talk is positive. Fans alone can't be the saviors for entire day's collections. On the other hand, 'Khaidi Number 150' is eagerly awaited by all sections. General audience may also turnout the theaters on the first day. Well wishers of GPS are hoping the film shouldn't lose its first day's collections due to 'Khaidi Number 150'. GPS has potential to generate first day's records. But it should get released on the day of Sankranthi.
