Trade Talk: Decent Reports, Average Collections

Kalyan Ram Nandamuri’s latest thriller film 118 opened to decent word of mouth. The film’s gripping narrative has impressed the critics. However, the pre release low buzz has affected its day 1 collections.

It was off to an average start at the box office and is hoping to pick up and make the most of the extended first weekend.

The film was sold for pretty reasonable prices, which should make it easy given the word of mouth.

Ajith’s dubbed film Viswasam is not making much buzz across Telugu states.

Last week’s release NTR Mahanayakudu is heading for an epic disaster with literally no takers. Free distribution of tickets in the first week says it all.

Mithai is a total washout. Bollywood films are making merry at the box office. After Uri and Gully Boy last week’s Total Dhamaal has hit the century mark and the latest release Luka Chuppi also has taken a bright start.
