Thank you mappi.
Nice to know that civilized discussions are possible :)
It's just so easy to pass off my opinions as bias(esp if you know where my loyalties lie).
Will add something that I did not post earlier,this film is far superior to the ones Rajini has acted in a long long while which is why I cared to type a long post.
With another actor in the thief Rajini role,better or no songs,more drama,this would have been a far superior film{strictly IMO :) }
Behindwoods has reported Chennai collection. Even second week Lingaa is the TOP Earner in Chennai for 2014! There seems like lots of political game going on.
Nobody is going to claim any kind of compensation in
* Andhra (TOP earner for a dubbed movie 23 crores for 10 days) even if they lose money. They are professionals
* Kerala - where it is released by vendhar movies itself
or Karnataka
Or overseas..
Only in TN this kind of drama always come up. EROs are smart enough protect themselves leagally as well as thru insurance, so exhibitors can not win!
Looks like the problems are coming from Suburbs and other parts of TN...
Earlier Red Pix videos and other loss reports are abt Chengalpet, Arcot and Trichy areas. There are only 8 shows in Mayajaal.. http://www.mayajaal.com/
Vendhar movies may be able to get good collection from Chennai and close the issues with others.
These days BIG opening is very important to overcome the "piracy" immediately after release . Lingaa did win in opening. When they release HUGE #s, they will reduce the screens quite a bit after a week or so. So it will look like they removed from several places. But the deal is to get maximum in a short-time.
I am sure producers know when I releases Lingaa will be almost done in cities. So lingaa got only another 10 days or so to collect. But I dont know about B/C centers where Shankars movie wont be appreciated that much!
ABO is saying it collected 55 crores in TN (no tax)
KA nett 7.7 crores (gross 10 crores)
KL 3.7 crores (gross 4.7 crores)
AP/N 19.2 nett (23 crores gross).
If you take other states total gross it is 38 crores as of today. No other tamil movie has collected this much in other states.
Shankar's "I" can certainly break it but they money they invested for "I" would be double that of Lingaa for sure!
I really want Shankar to win this time too!
Is Lingaa (Hindi) still going to hit silver screen in few days? :)
Madhan's program with KSR :)
KSR kku oru whistle podu.
Mappi or anyone noticed the Padayappa kind of walk in oh nanba song before he and others throw caps?
