Tomorrow, as another Friday arrives, Tollywood sees another movie hitting the cinemas. And that brings Naga Chaitanya and Samantha’s Majili to theatres without much of competition other than Prema Katha Chitram 2. But Majili’s journey will not be without hurdles.
Firstly with Sunrisers Hyderabad playing in the top gear, this year edition of Indian Premier League turned pretty interesting for Telugu cricket lovers. And every day they are catching up almost all the two matches being played. This might impact first show collections of movies.
And then, Majili will be facing stiff competition from TV channels for a week as the assembly elections fever in AP and parliament elections fever in both the Telugu states is at peaks and people are glued to their television sets most of the time. Even social media is also posing a threat to films these days as many of audiences are engulfed with political discussions there.
There comes the third threat in the form of ‘comedy’. We hear that Majili is mostly an emotional drama throughout the second half of the film and generally audiences expect to see F2 like films in Summer. That might give a little blow when it comes to attracting the whole of kids and teens.
All said and done, if Majili gets a hit talk, then nothing could stop the film’s run at the box office. This 2 hours 34 minutes movie is a family drama with wife winning the love of her drunkard husband as the central theme.
