Eega crosses Businessman collections !

For the first time in the 82 years of Telugu cinema history, a movie with an animal character as main lead had gone in to the Top10 biggest hits of Tollyood. The movie had managed to cross Mahesh Babu's Business Man which is currently fifth in the list. However, the movie's dream run is almost came to an end. The movie though opening to record collections worldwide doesn't look getting anywhere near the Rs 100 mark, as the theatre occupancies dipped since the third week onwards even though there are quite a few theatres that are running to packed houses in some centers. Three cheers to Rajamouli who achieved this rare feat with no star power and that too in an industry which is so star centric

Benchmark for a Tollywood Super Hit

In Bollywood collecting a gross collection of 100 crore in India has turned out to be the benchmark for a successful film. All the stars are aiming to reach that hundred crore mark with every film and we are witnessing more and more in the club in recent times. Likewise our Tollywood too has a benchmark for a super hit film.

Gone are the days where number of centers that the movie runs for fifty or hundred days used to be the true scale to measure a movie's success. Only number that matters now is how much share a movie collects. Tollywood has witnessed a string of super hits in less than a year's time and as per the statistics any movie that collects a share over forty crore can be termed as a super hit.

Businessman, Racha and Eega collected over forty crores share this year and Gabbar Singh went on to cross 60 crore rupees share. Gabbar Singh and Dookudu (55 crores share) were blockbusters as they went an extra mile and made it to 60 and 50 crores clubs respectively. 30 crores share used to be the benchmark for a Telugu film in the past. Now our super hits are crossing that mark in our state alone. Tollywood is shining and how?

Eega Makes it to Top 5

Eega is now one of the biggest hits in the history of Telugu cinema. The business of this film has almost come to a close in all the territories. It is still drawing good numbers in Hyderabad and few other cities in the weekends. With Julayi releasing this week, Eega wouldn't enjoy that status too. The film has collected a share of over 30 crores in Andhra Pradesh alone.

The total share of this film (Telugu version) is around 42 crore and it may add few more lakhs to the final tally. The Tamil version of this film has collected a gross of more than 15 crores, which is a record for the movie directed by a Telugu director. Keeping the share that Naan Ee gets in Tamilnadu aside, Eega stands at top 5 spot in all time list of Tollywood now.

It has replaced Businessman to take the fifth position in the elite list. Right now the top movies (Telugu versions alone) in Tollywood are Magadheera, Gabbar Singh, Dookudu, Racha and Eega. If Tamil and Malayalm version shares are included for Racha and Eega, then they will switch places among the list. The top 3 will be unmoved. If Tamil and Malayalam shares are added to Magadheera it goes further up. Now Rajamouli and Ram Charan have two films each in this list. No wonder that their combined effort occupied the top spot!
