In
the
span
of
one
month,
3
anticipated
flicks
of
Tollywood
released
and
diminished
without
creating
ripples
post-release
as
compared
to
the
sound
waves
created
before
release.
Goutham
Nanda
Sampath
Nandi,
who
had
scored
back-to-back
hits
with
Racha
and
Bengal
Tiger,
had
chalked
out
a
supposedly
interesting
and
engaging
flick
by
devising
an
uber-cool
characterisation
for
Gopichand.
The
teaser
and
trailer
of
the
movie
had
garnered
unanimous
thumbs
up
from
the
audience
and
had
raised
the
expectation
level
as
well.
As
a
result,
the
movie
was
sold
to
a
considerable
amount
of
21.5
Cr.
However,
the
movie
was
met
with
mixed
reactions
and
ended
up
earning
a
distributor
share
of
a
meagre
10.9
Cr,
thus,
ending
up
as
a
double
disaster
at
the
box
office.
LIE
Niithin,
who
had
delivered
a
solid
hit
with
A
Aa,
was
expected
to
come
again
with
a
solid
blockbuster.
The
actor
had
got
an
image
makeover
and
had
moulded
his
character
for
the
movie,
LIE.
Hanu
Raghavapudi,
who
called
action/cut
for
the
movie,
had
roped
in
Arjun
Sarja
as
the
stylish
antagonist.
Having
made
at
a
whopping
budget
of
32
Cr,
the
theatricals
were
sold
at
a
cost
of
24-25
Cr
but
ended
up
raking
a
small
amount
of
9.45
Cr,
thus,
earning
the
tag
of
a
double
disaster.
Paisa
Vasool
Nandamuri
Balakrishna,
who
had
delivered
an
impressive
hit
with
his
landmark
100th
movie,
Gautamiputra
Satakarni,
stepped
out
of
his
comfort
zone
of
mass
genre
and
clubbed
hands
with
Puri
Jagannadh
for
the
first
time.
Puri,
who
has
been
eluded
of
a
conventional
hit
had
pinned
hopes
on
Paisa
Vasool.
Much
to
the
dismay
of
Puri
and
Balayya
fans,
the
movie
was
flat,
uninteresting
and
disengaging
apart
from
Balayya's
histrionics.
Even
Puri's
trademark
dialogues
&
Balayya's
energy
couldn't
save
the
average
movie.
The
movie
had
to
collect
32
Cr
as
the
distributor
share
but
has
managed
to
rake
in
just
17
Cr
in
its
first
week
and
might
earn
an
extra
2-3
Cr
in
its
overall
run.
Paisa
Vasool,
is
set
to
incur
an
overall
loss
of
10
Cr,
thus,
fizzling
out,
commercially,
at
the
box
office
as
a
disaster.
