Petta
VS
Viswasam
It
would
definitely
be
a
tight
race
at
the
box
office
with
both
the
movies
making
a
wide
release
in
the
theatres
across
the
globe.
Since
two
big
movies
are
clashing
at
the
box
office
they
may
not
set
new
box
office
records
but
a
grand
opening
weekend
is
assured
for
both
the
films.
In
Tamil
Nadu
It
is
a
fact
that
Petta
is
releasing
in
a
larger
number
of
theatres
in
Tamil
Nadu.
But
still,
Viswasam
is
not
far
behind
with
the
movie
bagging
somewhat
equal
number
of
screens
and
that
too
with
additional
shows.
The
Initial
Trend
At
the
same
time,
the
initial
trends
suggest
that
Viswasam
might
get
a
slight
upper
hand
in
Tamil
Nadu
regions,
especially
in
the
B
&
C
centres.
Being
a
rural
entertainer,
the
movie
can
be
the
first
choice
for
the
audiences.
Meanwhile,
Petta
is
leading
the
race
in
city
centres.
However,
the
advance
booking
for
both
the
movies
for
the
first
weekend
are
equally
big.
In
Other
Regions
However,
it
is
Petta
that
is
leading
the
race
by
miles
in
other
regions
like
Kerala,
Karnataka,
Telugu
and
North
Indian
regions.
The
film
is
getting
a
big
release
and
Petta
is
expected
to
score
higher
than
Viswasam
in
all
these
regions.
Who
Will
Win
The
Weekend
Race?
Well,
as
mentioned
above,
it
is
going
to
be
a
neck-head
race
on
the
first
weekend.
While
Viswasam
might
overtake
Petta
in
some
regions
in
Tamil
Nadu,
Petta
is
sure
to
have
the
upper
hand
in
the
regions
outside
Tamil
Nadu,
which
is
equally
big.
So,
both
the
movies
are
expected
to
collect
somewhat
the
same
in
the
first
weekend.
