Finally there is an end to 2013. Telusuna.blogspot.com
gets our viewers most exclusive reviews of movies released each and every month
in the year 2013. We deal only with the notable movies giving out details about
their performance at the box-office. Getting into the detailed analysis below.
January:
Two BIG movies, Naayak and SVSC
marked success in the beginning of 2013. Naayak was released first followed by
SVSC. Both of them, though gained good collections, SVSC top the month owing to
its special feature, Multi starrer. The film marked the beginning of a late
faded trend. Srikanth’s Satruvu and Sevakudu failed to impress audience in this
month. January is a good month for film industry with approximated collections
more than 120crores.
February:
The month belongs to Prabhas Mirchi,
though started with an average talk, collected 50crores share worth in its
final run. The other releases include Ram’s Ongole gittah, an average film as
well as Maniratnam’s “Kadali”, a disaster. Siddarth tested his luck again with
Jabardasth. But, as usually failed. Many other small releases like Nara Rohit’s
Okkadine, Varun Sandesh’s Chammak Challo, etc., failed to secure recognition.
March:
March is completely a month of
small movies. Sunil failed to impress with his Mr. Pellikoduku. Two movies
earned good revenue in this month. They are Back bench Student and Swamy Ra Ra.
Both the movies earned unexpected revenues and remained as Blockbusters in
Small movie segment. 3G love, aravind2, Jaffa, Mahankali,etc., movies failed at
the boxoffice. Both the months of Feb and March earned around 65 crores
(Approx) for the industry with Prabhas’s Mirchi collected 46c share among them.
April:
April completely belongs to NTR.
His most awaited hit came in the form of “Baadshah”. The film took family
audience and masses by storm. Though with a very weak content, the film went on
collecting a share of around 55c, the biggest so far in the year 2013 proving
NTR’s boxoffice stamina once again. The only other movie which was able to
sustain NTR’s storm in April was “Gunde Jaari Gallanthayindhe” of Nitin. The
film turned out to be a silent hit. Other movies like Gauravam, Shadow, Vasool
Raja, etc. Failed earning a good
recognition. However, April remained a sweet month collecting approx 80c share
with Baadhshah collecting the major portion of 55c share.
May:
May had good movies such as
Greekuveerudu, Tadaka, Sukumarudu etc in the first half. Tadaka earned a
waiting hit for Naga Chaitanya collecting good numbers. The month ended with
the release of “Iddarammayilatho” of Allu Arjun. This stylish entertainer,
directed by Puri Jagannath Failed to live upto the expectations of fans.
However it managed to collect an amount of 25c.
June:
The month of June finally gave a
break to Raviteja in the form of “Balupu”. However the show stealer of this
month remained Maruti’s “Prema Katha Chitram”. The film raked in unexpected
numbers right from day 1 to day 100. Many other films like Pavitra, Something
Something, Saradaga ammayilatho, etc bit dust. Both the months together
accounted for 75c approx
July:
July is a sad month for Film
Industry with no good movies at the box office. Sahasam, though has got good
reviews failed to impress the boxoffice. Other films like Operation Duryodhana
2, Om 3d, Kevvu keka, etc failed to impress the audience. However, one
appreciable aspect of July month should be Kalyanram’s OM3D. The film marked
the beginning of Hollywood’s 3D trend into telugu films. Though Action 3D was
there, OM 3D was something different. The month hardly earned 25crores
August:
August is completely a dull month
with no noted releases. Many small films like dalam, adda, Anthaku mundu ah
Taruvata, etc were released in this month. The bad performance of August may
also be attributed to the political situation in the state.
September:
Toofan, Potugadu are noted movies
in the first half of the month. Toofan became an all time dud collecting less
than 6c share in Andhra Pradesh, a never expected figure for any top hero. The
second half of September has to be written in golden letters in TFI history with
Pawan Kalyan’s Attarintiki Daredi. The film suffered huge set back with a pre
release first half pirated CD’s all along the state. The film however went on
raking unexpected number turning out to be an INDUSTRY HIT crossing All time
HIGH “Magadheera” collections. The film collected an overall share of 75c
proving the stamina of TELUGU FILM INDUSTRY to the world despite of having the
worst “PIRACY” issue ever.
October:
Three big movies Ramayya
Vastavayya, Doosukeltha and Bhai are released in this month. Doosukeltha raked
good number while BHAI remained as the biggest disaster collecting less than 5c
share. The same might be attributed to NTR’s Ramayya Vastavayya. With immense
pre-release hype, the film failed to meet the expectations of fans. But however,
NTR once again proved his Box-office stamina collecting an approximate share of
40crores with a disaster, thus changing its position from disaster to an above
average to average film. The film was a minor loss venture in some areas, but
broke even in many other areas. This is attributed to the low amounts of prices
sold as well as producer Dil Raju’s own release at many areas. However, October
month remained sweet one for TFI earning 60c approximate share with NTR’s
Ramayya Vastavayya collecting an approcimate 40c share.
November:
Biggest movie released in this
month would be Varna. This Bi-Lingual movie starring Anushka and Aarya, failed
to rake minimum numbers and became the biggest disaster of 2013 next to Ram
Charan’s toofan. Masala, a continuation of Multi starrer trend having Venkatesh
and Ram in main roles failed to earn a hit. The film had to settle back with
average talk. Venkatadri Express which was released on 29/11/13 gained very
good openings. The film ran fulls even on third weekend too! The month hardly
earned 20c for industry.
December:
Venkatadri express added good to
TFI this month. Aadu Magadra Bujji, Prema Ishq Kadal, Uyyala jampala, D for
Dopidi, etc were released in this month. Only big film might be Dhoom3
(Telugu). Biryani, a Tamil dub also
earned respectable figures. The month earned around 20c too.
Overall 2013 seemed good for all
big heroes as well as small heroes. NTR, Mahesh, Prabhas, Ram Charan gained
Blockbuster each. Pawan Kalyan topped the list with an “Industry Hit”. Small movies
also fared well in 2013. On the whole, 2013 should be noted in TFI history as
the year after 2009 which noted an “Industry Hit” next to “Magadheera”.
