PS1: What’s The Mood Of Telugu Audience?
Maniratnam's "Ponniyan Selvan 1" ought to generate more excitement in the Telugu-speaking states for being such a significant movie, a sort of magnum opus, but the production team's basic promotions haven't succeeded in doing so. The movie is now receiving attention, but not at a high level, due to the lack of a superhit song, a breathtaking teaser, or a trailer. So how do telugu people feel about this movie?
If we must go by the advance reservations that have already been made, some upscale and opulent multiplex theatres in hyderabad have seen fantastic reservations; theatres like AMB Cinemas have already reported that the First Day of PS1 is houseful. However, occupancy in other large multiplexes is barely above 50%, while single screens have not yet seen a lot of foot traffic. This is the case in a premier city like hyderabad, while vizag and vijayawada are similar cases.
However, there are not many bookings taking place in other locations, and we can anticipate that the film's distributor, dil Raju, will have carefully chosen some of the best locations in the two telugu states in order to entice straight walk-ins for the morning performance tomorrow. Ponniyan Selvan 1 will either see growth or something else, depending on the conversation that arises. While the film is experiencing exceptional bookings in the state of tamilnadu for the tamil version, first day first show conversation and reviews are likely to become vital for PS1 to make it huge in telugu as well as Hindi.
