'LIE' hit the screens on Friday amid fairly high expectations. 14 Reels Entertainment is admittedly very happy with the openings.

"Our film has been getting a rave response, registering very good openings and opening to an extremely positive talk every where. Audiences are thrilled to watch Nithiin in a never seen before role," the banner says.

What factors have contributed to the "high openings"? "The characters of Nithiin and Arjun have impressed the audience big time. Hanu's arresting screenplay and the suspense factor have been very well received," the statement adds.

"The advance bookings for the coming few days have only gone up. Apart from Arjun, Sriram also gets to play a crucial role in this movie. This is a good comeback for both of them in Telugu. Mani Sharma's background score is another big asset of this movie. The battle of wits between hero and the villain is also very impressive. The stunning locations in the US have been captured well," the producers say.
