'Double Hit' Eluding Mega Heroes Since 1998

Releasing two flicks in the same calendar year and scoring blockbusters with both of them is what we call a 'double hit'. This feat is not happening after the golden year 1998, and mega camp is seriously thinking about it.

At a time when Megastar Chiranjeevi is in best of his form, he delivered Baavagaru Bagunnaru and Chudalandi Vundi in the same year, ie 1998. Both the movies are super hits at box office without any looking back. In the same year, Pawan too released his Suswagatham and Toliprema whose hits have catapulted him into a new star in the making. But after 16 years of that feat, Mega heroes are still struggling to score one such 'phenomenon' again.

In 2013, Charan came with Nayak and Thoofan, and only there is one hit. Of course, this year he got scope if Krishna Vamsi's movie releases. For Allu Arjun, he released Varudu and Vedam in 2010 and got disappointed. So, which mega hero is going to give a double hit now? With Chiru out of the game, we have to see how his family members take the onus of recreating that magic, which is eluding them since 1998.

Screen Talk: '1' Man Show

Last year, during the Sankranti season, Mahesh and Ram Charan fought it out at the box office. 

Both of them gave hits and set the cash registers ringing. This year too, both of them have films lined up for release. But the situation is likely to be totally different, say observers. 

Film Nagar insiders feel that it is likely that it is going to be a ‘1’ man show this festive season. 

Apparently, the Censor report too says leans towards 1. 

Trade analysts feel that Mahesh will take on the box office single handedly this year.

Yevadu has been postponed for a very long time and this has adversely impacted the film. 

Also, music by Devi Sri Prasad is a minus. Though the makers are trying their best to salvage the film with promotions, it is not helping much as Mahesh’s image and the craze for ‘1’ is huge. 

The impact of Thoofan is also likely to affect the fate of Yevadu. 

However, mega fans are hopeful that Yevadu will overcome these hurdles and do good business. 

It will soon be out as who the hero is for this Sankranti!

Ram Charan On Bench In 2014!

It appears that the career position of hero Ram Charan is in somewhat tricky position. After his last venture ‘Zanjeer/Thoofan’ became a disaster at the box office, the mega fans and Charan have pinned all their hopes on his new movie ‘Yevadu’ but the film is dangling in mid air not sure of its release date. But here is one talk making rounds. Sources say ‘Yevadu’ is being planned for release in January and this is a strategy developed by producer Allu Aravind.

 As being said, during Pongal if it comes okay but at the same time another talk is still on about the film arriving on December 19th, 2013. So, if December it comes then there will be no new release of Charan in 2014. The reason being, it is not sure when Krishna Vamsi will start and complete his new venture with Charan. And if that doesn’t get completed by 2014 then it would mean that Charan will be on bench without any release next year. For now, let us wait to see when ‘Yevadu’ arrives.

New headache for Yevadu from 'Bunny n Cherry'

Yevadu will be remembered as one of the biggest sufferers in the history of Telugu cinema. Even after being cleared by censors and announcing the release date, the movie was forced to be postponed due to the situation in the state. Later Ram Charan's disastrous performance of Thoofan pushed the film further.

Now when the film is getting ready for release a new headache aroused because of a low budget movie. This film is titled Bunny n Cherry starring Prince and Mahat as heroes. The concept of this film is pretty identical to that of Yevadu in which Cherry and Bunny are playing the leads.

Yevadu storyline has been making rounds in film nagar for quite some time now and Bunny n Cherry team has made a film using that. If Yevadu story is similar to this one Bunny and Cherry might cause slight problems for the biggie. Although a small budget film's reach may not be as big as Yevadu, it may work as curiosity killer and spoiler to Ram Charan's movie.
