Special effects, Bollywood's biggest 'animal villain' and Surya's stardom to the growing influence of South cinema, all of these were wasted. The use of all these things in Surya's Kanguva could not make it the best South cinema film of this year. Neither did this film make a place in the hearts of the audience nor did the critics like it. The debate of bollywood VS South cinema has reached its peak in the last few years. And this time in this battle of South vs bollywood, bollywood seems to be winning again. There are many reasons for this. These reasons have emerged after seeing the performance of Kanguva, which was recently released, along with two big bollywood films Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 and Singham Again, which are currently running in theatres. Know here in which matters South cinema lost to Bollywood.
bollywood won in opening day collections
Singham Again and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 earned fearlessly despite the diwali clash. The opening of both the films has been excellent. ajay Devgan starrer film earned 43.5 crores on the first day and Kartik Aryan's film earned 35.5 crores. In this case, Surya's Kanguva lagged behind. The film earned only 24 crores on the first day.
bollywood also won in opening weekend collection
For now, let's keep these three films in the opening weekend collection. Both bollywood films earned more than 100 crores in the first weekend. At the same time, today is the second day of Kanguva and looking at the way the film's earnings have decreased, it seems that the film will not be able to touch 100 crores in any way.
South cinema collapsed in hindi belt
Talking about hindi films, their earnings are not as much in the South as many South films earn among the hindi belt audience. As an example of this, you can take films like kgf, kgf 2 and Bahubali, which earned double digits in hindi on the very first day. But Surya's film did not get this benefit either. According to SaccNilk, the film earned only 3.5 crores on the first day in hindi, which seemed to take the film further behind.
