‘Chocolate’ is the solo hit

  • IndiaGlitz, [Saturday,November 10 2007]

Among the few films that were in the race for Ramzan, ‘Chocolate’ emerges as the solo hit. The film which has already collected a six crore gross from its four week run is still registering eighty percent in major centres. The film has given a big boom to the career of Prithviraj who have been signed for a number of films after the hit. The shoot of his films like ‘Thalappavu’ and ‘Kangaroo’ are progressing in brisk pace.

Mammootty's ‘Nasrani’ which was the holding the box office in the first week is gradually dying out from release centres with the entry of big Deepavali releases.

The film which remains in the major centres will find it hard to become a profitable affair as per the present trends of collections.

With majority of the masses going after Bollywood biggies like ‘Om Shanthi Om’ and ‘Saawariya’, the film is registering below sixty in majority of the centres.

The latest to arrive on the scene, Sreenivasan's ‘Ayur Rekha’ opened to full houses yesterday. The initial reports suggests that the film will turn up to become another hit for the actor.
