Hyderabad, March 26 - SS Rajamouli-directed "RRR" had a huge task in hand to perform on an opening day and it has not only performed successfully but also broked almost all the existing box office records for an Indian movie. The latest period action drama film got massively benefitted from the Telugu states governments' ticketing policy though. ## The movie was hugely hyped before the release and it justified the hype by proving to be a cinematic masterpiece. It has a direct competition with "Baahubali 2: The Conclusion" (2017), which was also directed by SS Rajamouli. The historical action drama film had held the record of the biggest opening ever for an Indian movie at the worldwide box office, which has now been breached by "RRR" almost 5 years later. ## Comparing opening day biz of "RRR" and "Baahubali 2" - the latest movie has grossed 223 crores (new record) while BB2 minted 217 crores worldwide on the opening day. Domestically, "RRR" has scored 156 crores gross as compared to 153 crores of BB2 while overseas, the former has scored 67 crores against 65 crores of Prabhas-starrer. ## Thanks to the new policies, "RRR" also has an upper hand over "Baahubali 2" in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, where Jr. NTR/Ram Charan film minted 102.50 crores while "Baahubali 2" had made way below but still good, 57 crores on the first day. However, in the Karnataka state, ATBB BB2 maintained its record of 19.50 crores against 14.50 crores of "RRR". In Tamil Nadu, "RRR" won the battle with a slight margin as it generated 10 crores against 9.25 crores of BB2.## "Baahubali 2" had grossed 1788 crores worldwide, in which, the Hindi collection was the biggest contributor with approx. 650 crores gross (India). This record is expected to remain unbeatable in the near future. "RRR" is unlikely to reach BB2's Hindi figure. In Hindi, BB2 had scored 52 crores gross on the first day while "RRR" could manage only 23.68 crores. Even in the Hindi belt, "RRR" is way behind BB2 on the first day as it scored only 25 crores as compared to 60.80 crores of BB2. ## Despite the advantage of higher ticket prices, one must admit that the "RRR" release has brought the Indian film industry to its strong feet. It had the biggest hurdle in the form of the covid-19 pandemic which was not the case with "Baahubali 2". BB2, however, had released with lower ticket prices compared to "RRR", which helped the latest movie to win the overall box office battle. ## Stay tuned...

Hyderabad, March 23 - The box office in India has started picking the pace and is expected to on its peak with the release of "RRR" from this Friday. The SS Rajamouli-directed has always been seen as a potential box office monster and even though it has been delayed multiple times, the talks around it never stopped making noise. ## Director Rajamouli has proved his box office prowess when "Baahubali" films were released in 2015 and 2017. Both "Baahubali" movies had combined grossed Rs. 2,438 crores worldwide, and went on to become the highest-grossing Indian film series worldwide. Though "RRR" is a one-part release, the expectation will be the same from this film. ## As things stand at present, "RRR" is poised to take the biggest opening in the original Telugu version. The biz in Telugu has received a major boost thanks to the hikes in ticket prices by Telugu state governments. Despite the high ticket prices, which are up to Rs. 5K for some of the benefit shows, the Telugu audiences have reacted positively and almost all the shows are booked in the biggest Telugu city, Hyderabad. ## As per the local Telugu trade portals and experts, "RRR" is expected to take the opening of Rs. 100 crores or more gross in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana states alone. While the opening day figure in the said states seems too high, it can not be ruled out considering the involvement of star power in the film that is being led by two of the biggest Telugu superstars Jr. NTR and Ram Charan, apart from director Rajamouli.## Unlike Telugu, the Hindi biz, which is the second biggest market for the film, will solely depend on WOM and spot booking. The advance booking for the same is still slow. However, the trade is banking big in Hindi and are expecting the film to open between Rs. 15-20 crores. The face value of Ajay Devgn and Alia Bhatt, who play extended cameos in the film, might help Hindi biz to get the momentum going in addition to the popularity of Rajamouli among the Hindi audiences. In Hindi, "RRR" is expected to release on 3400 screens which are enough for the film to take the big opening.## Apart from Telugu and Hindi, the Tamil version followed by Malayalam and Kannada may contribute 8-12 crores in the overall day 1 collection of the film. At the time of "Baahubali 2", Tamil was the 3rd biggest market for the film with an opening day collection of Rs. 17 crores net. ## Overall, "RRR" is anticipated to challenge the opening day figure of "Baahubali 2", which scored Rs. 121 crores net. The movie, however, has a tough task to perform as there is no guarantee of it to open as big as "Baahubali 2" in other languages apart from Telugu. A lot will depend on Hindi, which might give the film the best return if received very well. ## Produced by DVV Entertainment, "RRR" will release on March 25, in Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Malayalam, and Kannada. ## Stay tuned...

Hyderabad, March 19 - S S Rajamouli is one of the filmmakers who like to give more than 100% to the film and want the same effort from their actors. The filmmaker did the same in his upcoming "RRR" to make it a worth big screen watch. ## The constant pushing for perfection sometimes makes the actors irritate. Jr. NTR and Ram Charan, who play the lead roles in "RRR", admit that they were upset by the helmsman's lack of empathy while on the sets. ## In one of the recent promotional videos of "RRR", the actors complained that they had to deal with the tough demands of Rajamouli, who leave no stone unturned to make the film perfect. "Rajamouli does not show any empathy while on the sets. Even if Charan or I had small issues, he would make us join the shoot, and complete the task", Jr. NTR said. ## Ram Charan also said recalling an on-set incident. "I was not feeling well and Rajamouli still wanted me to come down and start shooting. He said that a thousand people have come down to work on the sets, so it will be a waste of money if I didn't show up". ## In response, Rajamouli said, "I have to control myself not to show empathy. If I start showing empathy and stop the show even for one day, it will cause huge damage to the production house". ## "RRR", which also stars Alia Bhatt, and Ajay Devgn in key roles along with others, is scheduled to release on March 25th in theaters worldwide. It is one of the most-awaited Indian films and is expected to do wonders at the box office. The movie is produced by DVV Entertainments. ##

Mumbai, March 17 - Bollywood star Alia Bhatt has proved her worth at the box office in the past, but the success of her recently released "Gangubai Kathiawadi" has surprised the industry people. The biographical drama, directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, has crossed Rs. 100 crores net mark and is nearing Rs. 200 crores worldwide. ## Though there was no doubt on Alia's credibility, the industry was fearing due to the covid-19 pandemic. The buzz around the film wasn't strong before the release but once it was released in theaters on February 25th, the biz kept on building upon the strong WOM and becoming a box office hit.## Jayantilal Gada, who released the film under his company, PEN India Ltd., is ecstatic about the success of the film. In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, Gada said, "It's a very happy feeling that Gangubai Kathiawadi has crossed the Rs. 100 crore mark. Even overseas, it's doing well.

People didn't expect much from the film, particularly due to its subject". ## Dr. Gada added that he had confidence in Sanjay Leela Bhansali, who has a very good track record at the box office. "I had confidence in Sanjay Leela Bhansali. And he had confidence in the film. He always makes great films without a doubt. So, we at PEN decided to bet on this venture".## After testing the success with Alia Bhatt-fronted, Dr. Gada is now gearing up for the release of SS Rajamouli-directed "RRR", which will also be released by PEN India Ltd. in the Hindi market. It is undoubtedly the biggest film for the company and Dr. Gada is hopeful that it will become a big hit. ## When asked if "RRR" can repeat the success of Rajamouli's last film and the all-time blockbuster "Baahubali - The Conclusion, the filmmaker said, "When Baahubali 2 did that sort of business, our life was different. People's lives have changed in these 2 years. Nevertheless, the film will generate even greater hype and craze than Baahubali, that's for sure. How huge that craze would be, we'll come to know on March 25. People should be entertained, that's paramount for us". ## Apart from "RRR", Jayantilal Gada will also release John Abraham-fronted "Attack", which is slated to release a week after "RRR" on April 1st, and Shahid Kapoor-starrer "Jersey" on April 14. ## Stay tuned...
