A few months ago, the makers of Mahesh Babu’s Bharat Ane Nenu and Allu Arjun’s Naa Peru Surya were at loggerheads to grab the April 27 date to release their movies. No party was keen on forgoing the long weekend advantage.
However, both the parties had a gentleman’s agreement and BAN released on April 20th, while NPS is scheduled to release on May 4th, with a healthy 2 weeks gap. This compromise is now proving to be a huge advantage for both the movies.
Hollywood superhero flick Avengers: Infinity War released on April 27 and is wreaking havoc not just in America but even in India. The film has collected over 125 crore gross and has set a new opening weekend record for any Hollywood movie ever released in India.
Infinity War’s storm at the box offices in North India and all the major southern cities like Bengaluru, Chennai and Hyderabad, including many other A centres down South. The film’s box office tsunami in North America (grossed over $250M in its opening weekend) is anybody’s guess.
This means that either BAN or NPS would have been battered severely in the hands of Infinity War had any of these movies released on April 27. But by skipping the date, both Mahesh and Bunny had made a wise decision and their movies have escaped the Avengers scare to land in a safe zone now.
