Tollywood Trade Talk: Mixed Fortunes

The time has come to have a look at what is happening at the box office. Well, two films were released last week and both of them are from different genres. One thing that stands out is the fact that there seems to be an attempt to change the storylines and the presentation of the film.

Firstly, we have ‘Gaganam’ and this had Nagarjuna in the lead as a commando. This was directed by Radha Mohan and produced by Dil Raju. The film is giving a feel good factor to the audience and more of such movies are required.

Then comes ‘Vasthadu Naa Raju’ which had Manchu Vishnu and Taapsee Pannu in the lead. This was directed by debutante Hemant Madhukar while Manchu Vishnu was the producer. The film has turned out to be a disappointment in terms of collections. The other film running is ‘Jai Bholo Telangana’ getting steady collections in the T-region.
