Baahubali 2 outshines Mohanlal’s Pulimurugan

Baahubali 2 outshines Mohanlal’s Pulimurugan

Baahubali 2 is running to packed houses in all the release centres. The movie recently became the highest grossing Indian movie as becoming the first Indian movie to cross the 1000 crore mark.

Baahubali’s performance is no different in Kerala, where it is fast approaching the 50 crore mark. It is already the highest grossing non-Malayalam movie in Kerala.

Baahubali 2: The Conclusion has been doing some phenomenal business in the Aries Plex multiplex in Trivandrum. It is unarguably one of the best theatres in South India thanks to it’s superior picture and sound quality. The movie is being screened at two screens- Audi 1 and Audi 6.

Ever since Baahubali 2’s release on April 28, the theatre has been witnessing unprecedented rush. The movie has grossed more than Rs 1 crore from the first 10 days of it’s release. The previous best was by Baahubali: The Beginning (23 days) and Mohanlal’s Pulimurugan (25 days). Another incredible achievement for the movie is that, all the shows in Aries Plex, since it’s release are being screened to housefull audience.

Pulimurugan is currently the highest grossing movie in the state. It is also the fastest to gross 50 crores. Going at this rate, Baahubali 2 can certainly topple Pulimurugan to become the fastest to 50 crore grosser. Let’s wait and watch.

Eventhough they have not revealed details about the cast or the crew members, talks are rife that South Indian star Allu Arjun is playing one of the leads in the film. There are solid reasons to believe these reports as the actor’s father Allu Aravind is one the producers of this ambitious project.

Allu Arjun has previously acted in a period fantasy drama in Rudhramaadevi. His performance as Gona Gana Reddy in the movie won him a lot of accolades including the Filmfare for best supporting actor. Also his chiselled physique and wide popularity makes him a great choice to be part of Ramayana. Reportedly, the movie will have popular stars from all major Indian languages.

His father Allu Aravind was also the producer of SS Rajamouli’s Magadheera. One of the three producers, Namit Malhotra, owns the company Prime Focus who handled the visual effects for Hollywood biggies like Star Wars, Transformers and The Martian. Expectations are already soaring high for this project after the record- breaking success of the Baahubali franchise.

Tremendous opening in China; Dangal closing in on Baahubali 2

We had recently reported about Dangal creating waves at the China box office after releasing on May 5. The movie was released as Shuai Jiao Baba or Let’s Wrestle Father in Chinese.

Dangal raked in a whopping Rs 72.68 crores from the opening weekend itself in China. According to latest reports, at the end of its 4th day, the movie has entered the 100 crore club in China.

Thus Dangal has toppled PK’s lifetime collection and is now the second highest grossing Indian movie only after Baahubali. If it manages to continue the blockbuster run in China, it can certainly become the second Indian movie to enter the 1000 crore club after Baahubali.

Aamir Khan enjoys a huge fan base in China as his film PK had also crossed the 100 crore mark in China. The actor even made an appearance in the country before the film’s release. It was also screened at the Beijing Film Festival this year.

“It’s a great fortune for any actor to be part of a Mohanlal movie”, says Telugu actor Srikanth

Telugu actor Srikanth is making his Mollywood debut through Mohanlal’s upcoming movie Villain. Srikanth is a veteran in Telugu industry having acted in more than 100 movies. Unlike most Telugu actors, Srikanth is known to be a very natural performer.

Tollywood industry demands over the top acting, as their movies are mostly masala oriented where actors tend to be over- dramatic. But Srikanth is quite different and that is the reason why director B Unnikrishnan roped him for Villain.

Srikanth in a recent interview opened up about his experience working in Villain. Even after being such a seasoned actor, he finds it tough while acting in Villain, the reason being Mohanlal’s presence. Srikanth has a lot of respect for Mohanlal and he admits that was the main reason why he committed for the project. He feels it’s a great fortune for any actor to share screen space with Mohanlal.

Srikanth is all praise for Mohanlal as he is impressed by how the superstar makes acting look so natural and simple. He is fascinated by Mohanlal’s performance so much so that he doubts about his own acting.

Though the actor remained tight lipped about his character in the movie, it is speculated that he is playing a negative role. Apart from him, Villain also stars Tamil actor Vishal, Hansika Motwani, Raashi Khanna and Manju Warrier in pivotal roles. Mohanlal is essaying the role of Mathew Manjooran, an ex-cop in this crime thriller.

The team is currently on a break after having completed the first two schedules. Rockline Venkatesh is producing this big budget movie.
