The Kannada animated feature Mahavatar Narsimha refuses to lose steam, even with many big releases and star-studded films battling for attention. Against all odds, people’s first choice, even on its 31st day at the box office, remains this film.
On day 30, within just 24 hours, ticket sales spiked dramatically. More than 130.3K tickets were booked on BookMyShow, a number usually associated with an opening weekend rather than the film’s fifth week.
The sudden spike in bookings shows that audiences are choosing films with substance, animated or otherwise. At this rate, the film could well cross new milestones at the box office.
With the Rs. 300 crore gross mark now within reach, Ashwin Kumar’s epic is in no hurry to arrive on OTT. Produced by Kleem Productions and presented by Hombale Films, the movie is further lifted by Sam CS’s soulful soundtrack, which continues to strike a chord with viewers.
