Is Nitin set to benefit?

The question some of them are asking is, will Nitin stand good stead owing to the Telangana sentiment? With the narrative of self-respect forming a crucial aspect of the T-agitation, Nitin, the only recognisable star who hails from the region could stand good benefit come Sankranthi, when his movie Seetharamula Kalyanam releases.

The actor, who hails from Nizamabad district, has the film lined up in January 2010 and it seems that the flops-battered star need not worry for competition from 'Kedi', 'Namo Venkatesha' and 'Shambo Shiva Shambo', or for that matter from 'Kalavar King' or 'Prasthanam'.

The exhibitors and distributors are sure that the film will be the only one in fray, at least in the initial weeks, when the issue is unlikely to get subsided. It will only mean better openings for the film.

By the way, the film is set in a neutral place. That's in Sri Lanka. Let's see if Nitin limps back in the new year.
