During the sankranti festival, guntur Karam, Na Sami Ranga, Saindhav, and Hanuman made a significant impact at the tollywood box office. Additionally, two movies featuring tamil star heroes, Dhanush's 'Captain Miller and Siva Karthikeyan's 'Ayalan,' were initially scheduled for release but faced postponement due to theatre-related issues. Now, these films are gearing up to hit the screens on Republic Day.
Both 'Captain Miller' and 'Ayalan' have garnered a positive reputation among the telugu audience despite the delay, generating considerable interest. Dhanush's 'Captain Miller' received good talk, and reports from tamil media suggest positive feedback for 'Ayalan' as well. This positive response in tamil Nadu raises expectations for strong support from the telugu audience.
Dhanush's 'Captain Miller' is set to grace the screens on january 25, followed by Siva Karthikeyan's 'Ayalan' on january 26. The solo release of these two dubbed films, with just a one-day gap, adds to the anticipation surrounding their impact on the tollywood box office. Despite the competition from the earlier sankranti releases, industry insiders believe that the delay won't significantly affect the performance of 'Captain Miller' and 'Ayalan.'
Even if 'Hanuman' records moderate collections, the lack of direct competition is seen as an advantage for the two dubbed films. Analysts suggest that if these films receive positive talk from the telugu audience, there is ample opportunity for them to register solid collections. The upcoming week will reveal how well 'Captain Miller' and 'Ayalan' perform in the tollywood market, and whether dhanush and siva karthikeyan can achieve success with their respective films.
