Siddharth Gupta plays the lead in Krishnavataram Part 1: The Heart (Hridayam), which is doing extremely well at the box office. On its second Friday, the film brought in an additional Rs. 1 crore, a slight decrease from its opening day. In eight days, its running cume reached Rs. 12.65 crore nett.
The film hopes to make between Rs. 5 and Rs. 6 crore by the conclusion of its second weekend, bringing its total box office receipts to Rs. 16 to 17 crore. By the end of this week, the legendary fantasy drama hopes to have earned more than Rs. 20 crore. The film still has to have a much better run in order to receive a clean hit rating, even though it is holding up well for cast and release size.
Last year, there was an animated movie called Mahavatar Narsimha, which was based on two of Lord Vishnu’s avatars. After opening at Rs. 1.25 crore nett on its first day, the movie had exponential growth throughout the weekend, reaching Rs. 3.25 crore nett on Saturday and Rs. 6.25 crore nett on Sunday. In the end, it brought in Rs. 170 crore nett in Hindi. A live-action movie about the Krishna avatar is called Krishnavataram. It was unable to depict Mahavatar Narsimha’s level of development.
However, it’s difficult to foresee these movies. Last year, we also saw a movie similar to Laalo: Krishna Sada Sahayate, which did very little for the first three weeks before taking off.
