'Dookudu,' a curse for 'Businessman'

Director Puri Jagannath is a master film maker who developed new styles in heroism. Many young guns have got new image with Puri’s typical heroism and characterization. His upcoming film with Mahesh Babu is ‘The Businessman.’ This flick is made with an only intention of crossing ‘Pokiri’ and ‘Dookudu.’ Nearing the completion of shooting in record minimum number of days, Mahesh Babu is set for a Sankranti release.

The first and foremost information is ‘Businessman’ has made huge business in overseas market as distribution rights are sold at all time high prices. Will ‘Dookudu’ magic continue for ‘Businessman’ too? One of a cine analyst said, ‘Movies that come up with low hype always have high chances of succeeding at BO, examples being ‘Dookudu’ and ‘Magadheera.’ Now, stupendous success of ‘Dookudu’ might become a curse for ‘Businessman’ because Puri Jagannath is going through a rough patch and by any chance, if movie falls short by an inch in reaching the high expectations, result might be sour. So, ‘Dookudu’ has both positive and negative effects on ‘Businessman.’ Let us wait and see.’
