Natasimham Nandamuri Balakrishna's NTR Kathanaakudu has been promoted quite well by the film's team for the past couple of months. Media too gave a wider importance in film's coverage.
As the film is set for a grand release on 9th of January, advance bookings were opened in Hyderabad and a few other cities of Telugu states. Having gone through the advance bookings status in Hyderabad three days ago, it is understood that below par booking have been recorded.
As of now, Arjun theatre of Kukatpally got all shows housefuls recorded on day one while a good number of housefuls were recorded in Prince Mahesh Babu's crazy multiplex AMB Cinemas. All other theatres of Hyderabad are yet to get housefuls.
Admit that second week of January every year is treated as the deadly unseason for films. Even then, NTR's advance bookings need to get improved for better openings.
NTR has been directed by Krish on NBK Films. Vidya Balan and Rana will be seen in crucial roles. Keeravani composed tunes.
