All eyes on big films

  • IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,August 31 2011]

It is that time in Tollywood when titans clash. Nandamuri Balakrishna's Sree Rama Rajyam, Mahesh Babu's Dookudu, Junior NTR's Oosaravelli and Akkineni Nagarjuna's Rajanna will be release in a span of weeks. While this is surely going to be a visual bonanza for the entertainment-starved audience, for exhibitors it is reason enough to joy too.

The first to hit the screens will be the Bapu-directed Sree Rama Rajyam. Since it is a mythological film and has a star with a mass fan base, it has got a wider target audience. Next, it will be the turn of Mahesh to create Box Office magic with Dookudu, an entertainer with equal measures of action, romance and comedy.

Oosaravelli of Junior NTR and director Surender Reddy will certainly have huge openings owing to the hero's appeal. It will be tough competition between Dookudu and Oosaravelli for the simple reason that they seem to be belonging to the same genre.

Sri Rama Rajyam and Rajanna are poles apart. They not only not intersect with each other but are also different from the other two entertainers from the young stars.

Rajanna falls under the category of historical genre. Being directed by Vijayendra Prasad, the film is a hot favourite for the simple reason that it will have action and its share of fiery dialogues.

It is to be seen who will emerge as the biggest winner.
