Poor scripts lead to string of failures in Tollywood #IndiaNEWS #Cinema & TV
Hyderabad: Big stars, eminent directors and big budgets cant guarantee success of a film and this has been proved by a string of failures in Telugu film industry after the smashing success of Pushpa.
The last four months saw several eagerly awaited movies hitting the screen but barring SS Rajamoulis RRR starring Junior NTR and Ram Charan, others either bombed at the box-office or registered average success. Chiranjeevi, arguably the biggest name in Telugu film industry, could not guarantee a great opening for Acharya.
Starring megastar Chiranjeevi in the lead and his son Ram Charan in an extended cameo, the movie directed by Koratala Siva was released on April 29 to a lukewarm response at the box office. Negative reviews saw a huge drop in the movies collection in the first four days. It disappointed even in Telugu States. In Andhra Pradesh it opened to increased ticket prices for the first week as per the policy of the state government for big-budget movies. However, so poor is the performance of Acharya that trade analysts believe its business may end within a week.
Acharya made at a whopping budget of Rs 140 crore only grossed Rs 63. 5 crore worldwide in its first weekend. Those who track Telugu films say that Acharya could end up as one of the biggest disasters of 2022. A cliched story and dated narrative without effective emotions resulted in the huge disappointment for Chiranjeevis fans. This was the second famous father-son duo to flop at the box-office. Earlier, this year Bangarraju starring Nagarjuna and his son Naga Chaitanya came as a disappointment.
Bangarraju could gross only Rs 60 crore worldwide despite the hype around the father-son duo. Another big disaster this year is Radhe Shyam starring Prabhas in the lead. The multi-lingual period romantic drama failed to live up to the high expectations. This much-anticipated movie produced with a budget of a whopping Rs 350 crore could gross Rs 144 crore worldwide from all languages combined at the end of its theatrical run.
Starring Prabhas in the role of a world-famous palmist, Radhe Shyam in Telugu, Hindi and Tamil had hit the screens on March 11.
Despite stunning visuals, grand outdoors, visual effects, romance and good music, the movie bombed due to cliched story. Bheemla Nayak starring Pawan Kalyan and Baahubali fame Daggubati Rana was another much-anticipated movie to hit the screens in February.
It was a Telugu remake of Ayyappanum Koshiyum (2020), a Malayalam language action thriller. Unlike Ayyappanum Koshiyum, which was about clash of egos between two men, it was Pawan Kalyan who dominated Bheemla Nayak. Ranas role was played down to allow power star, as the brother of Chiranjeevi is popularly known in film circles, take the centre stage.
