Gulte Telugu news
Tollywood hero Kiran Abbavaram heaved a sigh of relief after his latest release ‘KA’, a period thriller which offers a blend of action and emotion set in a fictional hilly village, received promising reports from all quarters despite heavy competition from other Diwali releases.
The solid pre-release buzz, courtesy of strong promotional content, ensured that the film opens well on the first day even after getting low number of screens in Telugu States and having no release in neighbouring states. As per trade reports, KA punched out just over 6 Crores gross on its opening day and gave the career biggest start for Kiran Abbavaram. This is a sensational start for a low budget film.
Due to the glowing word of mouth and decent reviews, the second day numbers of KA are bigger than the first day. Going by the current trend, the film is likely to have a impressive weekend and set to breach the break-even mark in Telugu States. Reportedly, the AP and Telangana rights were bagged by producer Vamshi Nandipati for 12 Crores.
Trade analysts predict that the buyers will see profits by the end of first weekend as the film is likely to surpass the magic figure because of the terrific footfalls.
KA benefited largely from the intriguing narration, technical finesse and stunning performances. Despite a few shortcomings, the action episodes with a right mix of action and drama helped the film garner decent reports. Directed by Sandeep and Sujith, KA has music by Sam CS.
