Box Office: Megastar Chiranjeevi's 'Acharya' Shockingly Has A Disastrous Opening Weekend

Hyderabad, May 2 - Megastar Chiranjeevi and Ram Charan's action drama film "Acharya" was released amid much curiosity among the fans. The movie did take a huge opening of 51 crores worldwide gross, however, the box office result after the first day turned out to be shockingly disastrous. ## Directed by Koratala Siva, the movie got bad reviews and it is termed the weakest film in director Siva's filmography. As a result of the bad reviews and negative word of mouth, the movie plumbed massively on the second day and grossed just 10 crores with a huge drop of 76%.## There was no respite for the film on Sunday as well as it further dropped to 7.70 crores gross and registered a disappointing opening weekend with 61.10 crores gross at the domestic box office. Overseas, it scored approx. 11 crores gross, pushing worldwide cume to 72 crores. With a look at it, 72 crores worldwide gross in just 3 days sounds big numbers, but the huge drop on the second day itself and with no way going forward, is going to cause major losses to the distributors. ## The movie was valued at approx. 140 crores gross in Telugu states (Andhra Pradesh & Telangana), but it seems it will be difficult for the movie to score even 50 crores AP/TG share in its lifetime run. As of now, for the first three days, the AP/TG share of "Acharya" is 38.77 crores, and as per industry insiders, the exhibitors are expected to lose approx. 80 crores. It is heading toward one of the biggest disasters in the Telugu film industry. ## "Acharya" is produced by Konidela Production Company and Matinee Entertainment. In the movie, Chiranjeevi played the title role while Ram Charan, who is fresh from his biggest blockbuster "RRR", played the second lead as Siddha. It also stars Pooja Hegde as the female lead alongside Sonu Sood, and Jisshu Sengupta, among others in key roles. ## Stay tuned...

Director Anil Ravipudi Wants To Make Hindi Remake Of Telugu Comedy 'F3'

Hyderabad, April 28 - Director Anil Ravipudi is a well-known name in Telugu cinema and is regarded as one of the most successful directors in the comedy genre. Ravipudi's directorial "F2: Fun and Frustration" holds a special mention in the comedy genre in Telugu cinema. ## After the blockbuster success of "F2", director Ravipudi wanted to take the franchise to next level, and now is ready for its sequel, titled "F3", which is slated for May 27th release. In an exclusive interview with IANS, Ravipudi stated that he had already decided to continue the 'Fun & Frustration' series before 'F2' became a blockbuster success.## "While 'F2' was all about marital issues, 'F3' will be all about money. Each role has its own significance, and I've attempted to incorporate the most relatable aspects", Anil stated. The movie stars Venkatesh, Varun Tej, Tamannaah, and Mehreen Pirzada, who reprise their roles from the first film along with Sonal Chauhan as a new addition.## Meanwhile, Ravipudi has a desire to remake "F3" in Hindi. He said that instead of dubbing the film in Hindi, he would love to direct the Hindi remake. Interestingly, "F2" was dubbed in Hindi and became a big hit on TV. ## "We can easily proceed with dubbing for the film. However, this genre does not work quite like that. Comedy must be local. Different languages have different comedy situations. One scene may be quite relatable in Telugu, and thus comedy may go hand in hand, but the same scene may make no sense in other languages".## "So, remaking the film with appropriate situations and comedy tracks would be wiser. That is why, rather than releasing the dubbed version, I intend to remake 'F3' in Hindi", he added. ## Stay tuned...

5 Years Of SS Rajamouli's Epic 'Baahubali 2 The Conclusion' Tollywood

5 Years Of SS Rajamouli's Epic 'Baahubali 2 The Conclusion'

Hyderabad, April 28 - The Indian cinema was forever changed when SS Rajamouli's epic action drama film, "Baahubali 2 The Conclusion" was released five years ago on April 28. It was the first glimpse of the changing dynamics within Indian cinema, which is now turning into a full picture. ## Before "Baahubali 2" set things on fire at the Indian as well as overseas box office, it was "Baahubali The Beginning" that set the stage up for its successor. Released in 2015, "Baahubali" went on to become the second highest-grossing Indian movie at that time with 650 crores worldwide gross. ## It was the film that kept the audiences talking about "Baahubali 2" to know the answer to the famous mysterious question - why Katappa killed Baahubali? And once the mystery was unveiled, it became a nationwide sensation that transformed into the blockbuster box office numbers. It is currently the highest-grossing Indian movie at the domestic box office with 1416.9 crores gross and second-biggest worldwide with 1788 crores gross.## Written by K. V. Vijayendra Prasad, the film is set in medieval India and follows the sibling rivalry between Amarendra Baahubali and Bhallaladeva; the latter conspires against the former and has him killed by Kattappa. Years later, Amarendra's son returns to avenge his death.## The "Baahubali" film series was the first to introduce director Rajamouli and actor Prabhas to the Pan-Indian audiences, who now become two of the biggest names in the world of Indian cinema. The Indian film industry and its audiences have always believed that it is a hero who decides the fate of a movie. But things have changed drastically ever since with directors taking the center stage. ## "Baahubali 2" inspired the South Indian filmmakers to look beyond the language barrier and that is exactly happening now. After "Baahubali", director Prashanth Neel took his Kannada movie "KGF Chapter 1" with superstar Yash to the Pan Indian audiences and has had a huge success. Just like "Baahubali 2", the expectations from "KGF Chapter 2" were over the top, and the results of that are there for everyone to see. Currently in theaters, "KGF 2" has already grossed 950+ crores worldwide in just 14 days.## Apart from "Baahubali" and "KGF" movies, director Sukumar's Telugu movie with superstar Allu Arjun was also opened for the Pan Indian audiences and became a rage. It will also have its second part and the hype around that is already sky-rocketing. Rajamouli's a month-old "RRR" with Jr. NTR and Ram Charan has broken several records at the box office. It is hailed as a cinematic masterpiece and there is no denial about that. ## Basically, this all began with "Baahubali" films and their all-time great box office performances. Rajamouli is now the biggest name among the filmmakers who can bring the audience on his own. Prabhas is undoubtedly one of the most bankable actors in the country. His upcoming movies are carrying huge expectations despite his last movie, "Radhe Shyam" failing to achieve its box office target. ## Produced by Shobu Yarlagadda and Prasad Devineni under the banner of Arka Media Works, "Baahubali 2" was made simultaneously in the Telugu and Tamil languages and it featured an ensemble cast including Prabhas, Rana Daggubati, Anushka Shetty, Tamannaah, Ramya Krishna, Sathyaraj, Nassar, and Subbaraju, among others in key roles. ## Stay tuned...

He also said that "Adipurush" will be released at the time of the election to support BJP. The movie is scheduled to release on January 12, 2023. ## The remarks of KTR about "Adipurush" being a propaganda movie have disappointed the fans of Prabhas and cinema lovers who are taking to Twitter and expressing their displeasure.
