This week, we had four main movie releases including
Anushka Shetty
starrer “
Bhaagamathie
,”
Deepika Padukone
starrer “Padmaavat,”
Udhayanidhi Stalin
starrer “
Nimir
” and “Vimal” starrer Mannar Vagaiyara. Although Vimal and Udhay movies won’t create any great impact on Padmaavat and Bhaagamathie collections, both the women-centric films rule the Chennai box office, now. It is really a stunning collection for Padmaavat in Chennai. Yes, people, this film that had a huge opposition from Karni Sena has collected Rs. 50 lakhs in Chennai at the end of Day 1. Anushka’s horror thriller has collected Rs. 37 Lakhs and Udhayanidhi’s Nimir collected Rs. 24 Lakhs. However, it is surprising to see Udhayanidhi’s movie has collected a good amount. It is expected that all these three films will have a good collection at the box office in this weekend. Padmaavat is directed by
Sanjay Leela Bhansali
; Bhaagamathie is helmed by “
G Ashok
” and Nimir is by “
Priyadarshan
.”
