Well,
the
industry
is
all
set
to
witness
a
big
box
office
war
in
this
week.
Mohanlal
starrer
Puli
Murugan
and
Mammootty
starrer
Thoppil
Joppan
are
ready
for
a
face-off
and
in
all
probabilities,
both
the
films
would
be
releasing
on
October
7,
2016.
Box
office
wars
of
superstar
films
have
always
been
an
interesting
topic
to
follow.
But,
is
it
really
good
for
the
industry,
when
the
films
of
both
the
Big
M's
release
on
the
same
day?
Here,
we
list
a
few
reasons
for
why
the
war
is
not
good
for
the
industry.
Read
on..
Affect
The
Initial
Collections
Both
the
films
are
high
on
expectations
and
since
both
of
them
have
superstars
in
the
lead
roles,
the
industry
is
surely
expecting
huge
initials
for
both
the
movies.
Since
both
the
films
are
releasing
on
the
same
date,
there
might
be
a
divide
on
the
collections.
Number
Of
Releasing
Centres
Earlier,
Puli
Murugan
was
expected
to
have
a
big
release,
now
it
has
been
confined
to
165
theatres
in
Kerala.
Thoppil
Joppan
would
also
be
released
in
a
good
number
of
theatres.
So,
both
the
films
are
unable
to
go
for
a
big
release,
as
expected.
Affecting
Other
Movies
If
two
big
movies
release
on
the
same
day,
the
major
chunk
of
theatres
would
surely
be
allotted
to
both
the
movies,
especially
when
the
movies
under
consideration
are
superstar
movies.
This
in
turn
would
surely
affect
the
run
of
small
movies
as
well
as
the
other
movies,
which
are
doing
a
decent
business
at
the
box
office.
Fan
Fights
Release
of
superstar
movies
on
the
very
same
day
would
pave
way
for
unnecessary
fan
fights,
which
definitely
is
not
a
good
one
for
the
industry,
as
well
as
the
stars
in
concern.
Effects
Of
Intentional
Degrading
Fan
fights
can't
be
avoided
and
the
chances
of
intentional
degrading
would
be
higher.
Even
if
both
the
films
turn
out
to
be
good,
there
are
chances
for
the
opposite
groups
to
degrade
the
other
star's
movies,
which
in
turn
would
adversely
affect
the
movies.
Puli
Murugan
has
been
directed
by
Vysakh
and
the
film
has
Mohanlal
in
the
role
of
a
hunter.
The
film
has
been
made
under
a
huge
budget
and
the
movie
is
expected
to
release
in
around
165
theatres
in
Kerala.
On
the
other
hand,
Mammootty
starrer
Thoppil
Joppan
has
been
directed
by
Johny
Antony.
Mammootty
will
be
seen
in
the
role
of
an
Achayan,
once
again,
through
this
film.
The
film
is
also
in
the
lines
of
a
mass
entertainer.
We
would
like
to
wish
both
the
films
all
the
very
best
and
we
hope
that
both
the
films
would
turn
out
to
be
big
hits
at
the
box
office.
