News
oi-Prakash
By Ramchander
Ajith
Kumar's
Arrambam
has
emerged
as
the
biggest
winner
at
the
Tamil
Nadu
Box
Office
this
Diwali.
Despite
facing
huge
competition,
the
Tamil
movie
has
managed
to
win
the
race
with
the
collections
of
the
flick
setting
new
records.
Indeed,
the
hype
clipped
the
wings
of
other
big
releases
Krrish
3
and
Pandiya
Nadu
in
the
state.
While
the
biggest
gainer
during
the
festival
in
Tamil
Nadu
is
Arrambam,
the
smallest
gainer
is
Hindi
movie
Krrish
3.
The
Hrithik
Roshan
starrer
movie
could
not
get
maximum
screens
due
to
Tamil
releases
like
Arrambam
and
All
in
All
Azhagu
Raja
in
Tamil
Nadu.
But
it
is
not
the
same
case
in
Andhra
Pradesh,
as
the
Hindi
flick
did
wonderful
business
in
the
first
week.
Trade
analyst
Trinath
says,
"I
don't
remember
any
dubbed
Hindi
film
collecting
Rs
14.53
crore
in
its
first
week
in
AP
and
TN.
The
collection
was
better
in
Andhra
because
the
film
had
a
solo
release,
while
in
Tamil
Nadu
it
had
limited
theatrical
release
due
to
the
release
of
three
Tamil
films."
In
Tamil
Nadu,
Krrish
3
could
only
get
just
above
60
screens
for
its
release.
Though
there
was
a
good
craze
to
watch
the
Hrithik's
movie,
theatre
owners
could
not
meet
the
demand.

Arrambam
and
Pandiya
Nadu
Rule
Trinath
adds
that
Arrambam
and
Pandiya
Nadu
are
ruling
the
market
in
Tamil
Nadu.
"This
is
the
first
Friday
of
the
year
no
Tamil
film
has
released.
Arrambam
and
Pandiya
Naadu
will
continue
to
lead,
while
Krrish
3
can
enjoy
another
week
of
run
at
Tamil
Nadu
Box
Office."
Krrish
3
Tamil/Telugu
Versions
It
has
to
be
noted
that
apart
from
the
Hindi
version,
the
dubbed
versions
of
Tamil
and
Telugu
have
made
decent
business.
Telugu
Version
Better
Than
Tamil
Version
"The
Telugu
dubbed
version
was
received
far
better
than
the
Tamil
version.
Since
there
was
not
a
single
release
in
Andhra
Pradesh
last
week,
but
for
Vishal's
Telugu
dubbed
version
of
Pandiya
Nadu,
audiences
had
to
watch
Krrish
3,"
said
Trinath.
Figure
The
dubbed
Tamil
and
Telugu
versions
have
done
Rs
6.2
crores
at
the
Box
Office
in
the
opening
week.

is
happy

According
to
traders,
Krrish
3
was
given
such
screens,
which
had
limited
capacity.
But
the
only
relief
that
came
its
way
was
the
state
government's
permission
to
have
five
shows
for
single
screens
during
the
Diwali
week.
Science
Fiction
