Kichcha
Sudeep
starrer
Kotigobba
2,
which
released
on
August
12
for
Varamahalakshmi
festival,
has
opened
big
at
the
box
office.
As
the
long
weekend
ended
yesterday,
collection
reports
for
the
weekend
have
come
out,
which
is
yet
to
be
validated
officially
by
six
distributors
who
have
procured
rights
for
different
regions
of
Karnataka.
We
hear
that
movie
has
grossed
22
Crores
for
4
days
in
Karnataka.
This
figure
includes
6.5
Crores
from
the
most
important
region
-
Bangalore,
Kolar
and
Tumkur
where
the
movie
is
distributed
by
Jack
Manju
of
Mysore
Talkies.
In
centers
like
Mandya
where
movie
was
released
in
two
theaters,
95
per
cent
shows
were
full
in
the
weekend
which
validates
the
gigantic
opening
taken
by
this
Kichcha
Sudeep
starrer.
Same
is
the
response
in
Veeresh
Cinemas
of
Bangalore,
where
the
movie
was
released
in
both
the
screens
(9
shows
per
day).
Also,
as
per
the
trade
buzz,
all
the
six
distributors
will
meet
the
press
soon
to
release
the
official
collection
figures
for
the
weekend.
If
this
happens,
then
probably
it's
the
first
time
distributors
are
meeting
the
press
to
reveal
the
collection
figures.
The
release
of
Tamil
version
was
not
confirmed
till
the
last
moment
because
of
a
few
internal
issues.
So
the
movie
was
released
in
less
number
of
screens
and
with
less
buzz.
But
the
reports
from
Tamil
Nadu
suggests
that
movie
has
been
liked
by
audiences
and
number
of
screens
have
been
increased
over
the
weekend.
Also,
movie
will
be
released
in
other
major
centers
of
Tamil
Nadu
on
August
19.
We
hear
that
Superstar
RajiniKanth
will
be
watching
the
movie
in
a
day
or
two,
in
Chennai.
This
should
boost
up
the
buzz
and
collections
for
the
Tamil
version.
This
may
not
impact
the
Kannada
collections
as
the
movie
is
doing
extremely
well
in
Karnataka.
