Ram Charan Failed, Can Akhil Akkineni Deliver

Share

After scoring a blockbuster with Magadheera, Ram Charan featured in ‘Orange’ a realistic love drama that had a completely tonal contrast when compared to that of Magadheera. The drastic change in genres didn’t help the cause. The audience were hoping for a proper action thriller from Ram Charan after Magadheera, but they were served an intense love drama that had very little entertainment value. Also, Orange did not have any commercial elements. This is one of the main reasons why the film failed to click at the box office. There is no denying the fact that Orange has a follower base and a section of the audience adores the film. But as far as the box office parameters are concerned, Orange is a dud. Following which, Ram Charan never signed a full-on love drama. He has mostly been picking films that cater to all sections of the audience.

Now, Akhil Akkineni is coming up with Most Eligible Bachelor, which is billed to be a proper love drama with a slice of life theme, much like Ram Charan’s Orange. Most Eligible Bachelor is based on two individuals, Akhil, and Pooja Hegde who have a completely different approach in regard to marriage. While Pooja is more matured, Akhil believes that having a good career is a pivotal step ahead of marriage and later realizes that he is really confused about picking his life partner. Well, Orange has a plot that is very similar to that of Most Eligible Bachelor’s.

But the makers of Most Eligible Bachelor are not repeating the same mistake as with Orange. This time around, they have infused Most Eligible Bachelor with a whole lot of entertainment value, as shown in the trailer. The trailer implied that there’s a fair bit of comedy, romance, and other commercial elements in the Akhil Akkineni and Pooja Hegde starrer. The makers of the Akhil starrer are making sure that it caters to all sections of the audience. Also, it has a more contemporary take on modern day relationships. It remains to be seen if Akhil can score a hit with a genre that didn’t work very well for Ram Charan.

DSP–Thaman Buzz Around UBS

Powerstar Pawan Kalyan’s much-awaited film Ustaad Bhagat Singh is set to hit theatres on March 19, and the movie is gearing up for a direct clash with Dhurandhar 2 at the box office. With the release date approaching fast, building strong promotional buzz has become crucial for the film.

As is usually the case, Pawan Kalyan is not expected to take an active role in promotions. This means the responsibility of promoting the film largely falls on director Harish Shankar and the music team. However, the film has recently seen a significant change in its music department.

Initially, Devi Sri Prasad (DSP) was composing the music for the film, but he was reportedly replaced at the last minute for the background score, with S S Thaman stepping in to handle it. This development has sparked speculation in industry circles that DSP might have been unhappy with the change, leading to his absence from promotional activities.

It remains unclear whether DSP will attend the film’s pre-release event. At the same time, Thaman’s involvement in promotions may also be limited since he joined the project only at the last stage. As a result, the major share of the promotional responsibility appears to be resting on Harish Shankar’s shoulders.

If DSP decides to attend the pre-release event, it could create an interesting moment as fans might get to see DSP and Thaman together on the same stage, something that rarely happens. On the other hand, if he stays away, his absence could become a major talking point.

Meanwhile, the film’s official trailer is scheduled to be released tomorrow evening, and it is expected to play a crucial role in shaping the buzz around the movie. If the trailer clicks with audiences, it could instantly boost the film’s hype ahead of its release. For now, all eyes are on Harish Shankar and the trailer launch.
