Luck
favors
the
brave,
is
the
general
saying
which
is
practised
and
preached
from
ages.
Though
the
same
has
come
true
on
many
occasions,
the
said
saying
doesn't
hold
good
for
one
actor.
Manchu
Manoj,
a
dedicated
and
a
hardworking
actor,
son
of
popular
star,
Manchu
Mohan
Babu
is
the
said
to
be
unlucky
actor.
His
recent
movie,
Okkadu
Migiladu,
which
was
said
to
be
based
on
the
real
life
story
of
LTTE
chief
Prabhakaran,
was
indeed
promising.
The
posters
and
the
trailer
of
the
movie
had
indeed
generated
quite
a
buzz
among
the
Tollywood
circles
had
as
well
garnered
over
1.2
M
views
with
17
k
likes.
The
team
of
Okkadu
Migiladu
too
had
pinned
their
hopes
at
a
substantial
level
on
the
movie
considering
the
subject
line
and
the
response
received
by
the
trailer.
The
movie
was
released
on
10th
of
November
in
very
limited
screens
across
AP/TS
and
some
locations
of
the
USA.
The
movie
had
to
face
quite
a
stiff
competition
with
as
many
as
8
other
movies
releasing
on
the
same
day
along
with
two
dubbing
movies.
The
biggest
shocker
for
the
movie
team
was
the
response
received
from
the
audience.
The
movie
has
garnered
extremely
pale
and
a
disappointing
response
from
the
audience.
Poor
promotions
and
publicity
coupled
with
a
below
par
word
of
mouth
has
did
it
in
for
Okkadu
Migiladu.
In
addition
to
that,
the
audiences
too,
were
inundated
with
more
choices
of
movies
last
week
with
flicks
like
Detective
&
Adirindhi,
dub
movies
from
Tamil
scoring
over
the
direct
Telugu
movie.
Having
been
made
at
a
budget
of
5
Cr,
Okkadu
Migiladu
managed
to
run
just
for
one
week
which
is
a
shocker.
The
movie
earned
a
total
share
of
a
meagre
38
Lakhs
in
its
first
week
which
also
happens
to
be
the
final
closing
share
of
the
movie.
This
sums
that
the
total
recovery
of
Okkadu
Migiladu
is
just
over
7%
and
hence
marks
the
movie
as
a
colossal
disaster
at
the
box
office.
