Unexpected: Sye Raa Disappointing Ending!

There were huge expectations and analysts predicted Mega Star Chiranjeevi’s most ambitious project Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy, biopic of freedom fighter Uyyalawada Narasimha Reddy, would break many box office records and emerge as a sure shot blockbuster.

With around Rs 105 Cr share in AP and TS, the Surender Reddy directed film is the only Telugu film after Baahubali series to rake 100 Cr share in Telugu states. Now, the film’s business is almost coming to an end. Despite the fact that, there is not big competition, Sye Raa is underperforming for last few days.

Sye Raa is ending as a profit maker for buyers in most of the centers in Telugu states. But, the question is, are the buyers really happy with the film’s performance.

Given that, the film is made on massive budget and buyers bet big on the film, the 100 Cr share can’t be considered as a great achievement. Moreover, tickets were sold on hiked prices for more than a week days in Andhra Pradesh.

Considering the huge opening, the film was expected to collect around Rs 140 to 150 Cr for full run in Telugu states. But, it seems, the film’s closing business will be around Rs 108 to 110 Cr.

On the other hand, the analysts who predicted Sye Raa to do at least decent business in Hindi and other languages were shocked to see the film’s openings outside the Telugu states. The collections did not pick even though critics unanimously gave positive ratings in all languages. The Ram Charan produced film is also ending as a loss maker in overseas.

All in all, to be precise, Sye Raa is not the true blockbuster, even in Telugu states as well!
