The critics may have panned the
film, but Alludu Seenu has struck gold at the box-office. This quintessential
commercial outing has given newcomer Srinivas the best debut he or his father
could have ever asked for.
The film has minted over INR 10 crore in the opening
weekend and that's great numbers for a debutant's film. Perfect combination of
action, romance and comedy has worked in the favour of the film.
The film
was made on a budget of 19 crores as it was lavishly shot abroad. With over 10
crores collections in the opening week, the film has broken even and is now
heading towards generating more revenue.
According to sources, the film's
satellite rights fetched a whopping 3 crores. According to trade pundits, the
film has turned out to be a sleeper hit.
But the million dollar question
is whether Srinivas can sustain in the industry for a longer period of time or
disappear after a handful of films.
We'll have to wait to find out more about
that.
