Natasimham Nandamuri Balakrishna and late director Darshakaratna Dasari Narayana Rao's Paramaveerachakra created a rare record in Telugu film history minting just Rs.5 crores share then. It was an all time lacklustre record among senior heroes till then.
Of course, King Nagarjuna's Officer crossed Paramaveerachakra's record with a huge margin. The film accumulated just Rs.1 crore collections world wide.
And now, Balakrishna is all set to cross Paramaveerachakra's record with his latest offing NTR Mahanayakudu. According to the reports the film collected around Rs.3 crores world wide share in its first weekend 's run. The film is expected to collect a total of Rs.3.50 crores in its full run. This is an all time new low record among Balakrishna's films.
However, Nandamuri fans defend Mahanayakudu as a classic film and are making it clear that classic films won't spin money at the box office.
