Bichhagadu 2, the highly anticipated sequel to the blockbuster Telugu film starring Vijay Anthony, hit theaters this friday. With a poor response to the trailer and the original director, Sasi, distancing himself from the project, the film seemed to be facing an uphill battle. However, much to everyone’s surprise, the movie is defying all odds and performing exceptionally well at the box office despite of mixed reviews.
The original Bichhagadu, released a few years ago, was a phenomenal success, grossing a share of 30 Cr rupees. It captivated audiences with its unique storyline and Vijay Anthony’s powerful performance. Naturally, expectations were high for the sequel, but the film struggled to generate positive buzz leading up to its release.
Early reviews for the film have been largely negative, with critics pointing out the absence of Sasi’s directorial touch and expressing disappointment with the storyline and execution. Despite this, Bichhagadu Sequel opened to a solid 4 Cr gross on its first day, exceeding initial predictions and signaling the potential for success.
Industry insiders suggest that word-of-mouth and Vijay Anthony’s loyal fan base have played a significant role in the film’s surprising box office performance. As the second day progresses, trade analysts are predicting an even stronger performance, with the film expected to earn more at the box office.
By the end of the first weekend, Bichhagadu Sequel is projected to cross the 10 Cr gross mark, which is an impressive achievement given the initial lack of buzz and negative critical reception.
The success of Bichhagadu Sequel serves as a reminder that the audience’s taste is often unpredictable, and word-of-mouth can play a crucial role in shaping a film’s fate.
As the first weekend comes to a close, it remains to be seen how Bichhagadu Sequel will fare in the coming weeks.
