When can Dookudu cross Magadheera?

Hit talk for ‘Dookudu’ is blocking the minds of audience. Trade pundits have begun to check the possibilities of Mahesh Babu crossing his own ‘Pokiri’ or Cherry’s ‘Magadheera.’ Comparison might be apt between these three stupendous hits but chances of ‘Dookudu’ crossing Mount Everest like ‘Magadheera’ are subjected to some constraints.

Yes, post the release of ‘Magadheera’ many star flicks arrived at BO but audience rejected each of them comparing with Rajamouli standards. That made Kala Bhairava to go on a literal massacre of records. Not a surprise that few theatres in Coastal Andhra have gone for full houses till 50 and 60 days. 

Logic is simple. Generation of hit talk or record first week collections alone are not to take a movie above ‘Magadheera.’ Sustaining at Box Office for six to seven weeks will be a daunting task for any flick in this current trend. While ‘Magadheera’ offered everything new and shining, ‘Dookudu’ is a routine entertainer with action, comedy, sentiment. 

Oppositions in the form of ‘Oosaravelli,’ ‘Bodyguard,’ ‘Rajanna’ and ‘Sri Rama Rajyam’ ready to take on ‘Dookudu,’ one has to wait and see how far ‘Dookudu’ will stand in future days?
