Businessman records shattered!

No one has given a chance for Racha to surpass Businessman's first week records as the film had no pre release hype and due to the less known director. However, Racha surprised even hardcore fans of mega family and turned out to be a massive hit this summer. As per early estimates the film collected Rs. 25 crores share only in AP in first week.

All India share will be around Rs. 28 crores and the worldwide first week share will be more than Rs. 30 crore. This is the genuine first week record for any Telugu movie. Racha has beaten Businessman's record by a good margin emerged as the new number one opener for Tollywood. Producers of Racha didn't get into the fake game and have been announcing real figures and in reality Racha is the new record holder.

Now any movie that releases after Racha has a real record to target. Dammu and Gabbar Singh are the big releases coming very soon and let us see what happens !

Mass Bug Bites Superstar Mahesh

With 'Dookudu' and 'Businessman', people had seen the real mass hero in Superstar. But, our hero is not satisfied with them and still desires for more mass, with that bug tickling him a lot.

Currently, Mahesh is busy with 'Seethamma Vaakitlo Sirimalley Chettu'. After finishing this family drama, he is expected to join Sukumar's romantic love comedy. Soon after finishing these two projects, Superstar wants to do another out and out masala movie in the likes of 'Racha', says a source.

After considering, directors Sampath Nandi and another mass-king Boyapati Seenu, Mahesh has voted for the latter one. If Boypati etches Mahesh as a Mass-Superstar, then there is no doubt Tollywood's prince will dominate all kinds of genres a star-hero should. However, young stars like Jr.NTR and Ram Charan might overtake him with ease provided with their sculpted bodies, dancing skills and punch dialogue delivering.

NTR, it's time to show your Dammu

Racha managed to get the second biggest release ever in Tollywood's history and still went on to create a new record for day 1. With Racha raking in such huge collections, Nandamuri fans are expecting similar reception for Dammu. Chances are highly likely for Dammu to get a big release. So will NTR break Racha opening day record on 27th April?

NTR has set a new benchmark for day 1 collections with Oosaravelli movie and that too in the wave of Dookudu. Of course that was on Dussera and films generally draw good collections on that day. Now NTR has a bigger challenge with Dammu. Will he show his Dammu yet again? Luckily he has Boyapati Srinivas to his support and the buzz on this film is extremely positive.

If Dammu gets a release as good as Businessman and Racha, chances are very high for the movie to create new record for day 1. Which means Racha's day 1 record won't even long for four weeks. Let us see if NTR shows that Telugu cinema potential is much bigger than Racha or not? Also NTR should deliver a blockbuster that can exceed 40 crore mark to prove his credentials and the hype surrounding him right.
