The year 2018 started off in a bad way for Telugu Film Industry. The highly anticipated movie Agnyaathavaasi turned out to be a double disaster at box office leaving heavy losses for producers, distributors, exhibitors and everyone involved. Jai Simha that released two days later broke even in all areas and emerged as an above average grosser.

Bhaagamathie, which released as Republic Day special went to become the highest grosser for a women oriented movie in Telugu and emerged as a super hit at box office. This is the only clear hit so far, this year. A week later, Ravi Teja’s Touch Chesi Chudu released and turned out to be another disaster of the year. Naga Shourya’s CHalo that released the same day emerged as a super hit. With a 6-crore pre-release business, it already collected 8 cr in its first week.

This week we had three releases of which Tholi Prema is enjoying a very good word of mouth and is expected to become a super hit. The other mega hero movie Inttelligent is faring very poorly at ticket counters and is emerging as a double disaster. Mohan babu’s Gayathri is also heading towards a flop zone.

In the first 40 days, we saw 3 super hits in the form of Bhaagamathie, Chalo and Tholi Prema and 3 disasters in the forms of Agnyaathavaasi, Touch Chesi Chudu and Inttelligent and one hit in the form of Jai Simha. Surya’s dubbed movie Gang is average. Rest all are low budget flicks that sank without a trace. We hope to see some good results in the next phase.
