Records
tumbled
over,
audiences
are
still
going
gaga
over
the
magnum
opus
flick,
box
office
is
brutally
belted
with
massive
numbers,
industry
folks
and
other
contemporaries
are
mesmerized
over
the
umpteen
dedication
and
innovation
from
the
entire
team
and
despite
three
weeks
of
its
release,
there
is
no
slowing
down
of
its
performance
at
the
Box
Office.
Yes,
the
phenomenon
called
Baahubali
is
still
going
strong
and
has
now
earned
the
label
of
the
biggest
ever
motion
movie
of
Indian
industry.
Probably
its
Baahubali
2
after
the
legendary
Sholay,
which
has
earned
the
cult
classic
status
as
the
movie
has
had
the
maximum
viewership
of
its
time.
The
movie
is
now
an
all-time
industry
hit!
SS
Rajamouli's
extravaganza
has
done
some
colossal
business
in
the
overseas
market
as
well
and
guess
what,
Baahubali
2:
The
Conclusion
is
now
the
official
industry
hit
in
Nepal
as
well.
The
question
is,
would
Baahubali
be
able
to
earn
a
distributor
share
of
200
Crore
in
the
AP/TG
circuit
alone?
No
movie
in
any
other
cine
industry
of
the
country
has
earned
a
share
of
200
Cr
in
a
single
language
speaking
state
and
if
Baahubali
2,
is
able
to
achieve
the
rare
feat,
then
it
would
be
the
pioneer
of
the
said
distinction.
The
distributor
share
of
the
AP/TG
region
for
19
days
stands
at
an
immense
175
Cr
which
is
massive
by
any
yardstick.
With
weekday
shows
still
going
strong
and
weekends
being
embraced
with
houseful
shows
which
are
being
inundated
largely
by
the
family
audience,
it
is
to
be
seen
in
the
coming
days
whether
the
movie
would
go
on
to
collect
another
25
Crore
share
to
ensure
its
reachability
to
the
distinguished
mark.
Interestingly,
a
series
of
movies
released
on
May
19,
though
none
seems
to
have
the
potential
to
disrupt
Baahubali's
run
for
now.
May
26th
could
possibly
stop
Baahubali's
tsunami
force
as
both,
Sachin
-
A
Billion
Dreams
&
Rarandoi
Veduka
Chudham
are
slated
for
release.
Expectations
and
initial
pull
for
Sachin's
movie
would
be
quite
natural
as
the
brand
name
has
the
magic
in
it
and
Rarandoi
Veduka
Chudham,
which
stars
Naga
Chaitanya
and
Rakul
Preet
Singh
could
as
well
snatch
some
audience
as
the
trailer
of
the
movie
gives
one
a
feeling
that
the
movie
is
targeted
more
towards
A
centres
and
family
audiences.
With
several
movies
being
lined
up
and
Baahubali
still
running
like
a
strong
horse,
it
is
yet
to
be
seen
whether
the
movie
crosses
all
the
newbies
at
the
box
office
and
hoist
the
flag
of
"the
first
200
Cr
share
earner
movie".
