Friday Matinee -Velan Super Hit - Cleatus - Hit join us Malayalam film news Veteran film journalist and box office analyst Mr Sridhar Pillai termed the Onam film race as lackluster. I would like to second him because of the lack of enthusiasm it generated. All the movies expect North 24 Katham were average to below average and it pin point the same old theory that films are made for just for the entertainment. No innovation No unexpected scenario all in all old bottle and old wine. Fans may differ with me but should understand that after first week dust theaters are starting to drain off the crowd, you go and watch the theaters were these movies running and you also will agree! Three second to third rank star films. D Company and Ezhamathe Varavu, North 24 Katham. The first two didn’t left any trace in the Onam hit chart. Plumed to debacle from flop to disasters. It is painful to see the erstwhile golden combo –M-T –Hariharan team get mediocre response. We can’t change the taste of the present movie lovers but we have to change ourselves. D Company has inherent weakness of lack of cohesion and thus provide no charm at box office. North 24 Katham gets good WOM but not that much appreciation as far as box office concerned. Started on Uthradam day and expectation of betterment proves to be counterproductive barring certain major cities like Kozhikode, Multiplexes in Kochi. In last eleven days it just manages to pass 2 .15 crore mark. If it would have released some other date it would have taken off well. Continued in around 45 screens and likely to be around thirty plus screens which can give some solace to its dilemma at B.O. ‘’Daivathinte swantham cleatus’’ entertained Mega star Mammooty’s fans thoroughly. The second week it maintained in 70 plus screens without any reduction in shows thus passing 4,000 shows quite easily. In fourteen days it collected 5.70 crore pointing towards a life time collection of in between 8 to 9 crore.DSC maintains a fifty percentage occupancy in major cities. Hit for Mammooty and debutant director Marthandan and expecting better third week with 60 plus screens. ‘’Sringaravelan ‘’ emerges as the winner in a battle which was never there. Collects huge due to family audience acceptance of Dileep and wide release in 80 plus screens. Roaming around 4,100 shows with 7 crores in its bag in twelve days and expecting to a life time business of around 11 to 12 crore through theater run. Success is the essential for stars but Dileep should introspect about some qualitative change from cliché roles. Ramzan releases actually out shined Onam releases in performance and quality wise. Pullipuli and Memories celebrated 50 days in this week with total shows exceeding 7,000 which is super hit status. Today’s release: Zakariyayude Garbhinigal: Interesting title with Lal in the lead and a parade of heroine . Rima Kallingal is the lead among them with debutant Aneesh Kumar handles the script and direction. Manages to get sixty plus screens. Kerala Top 5 movies – 27/09/2013 1. Sringaravelan – Another Super hit for Dileep 2. Daivathinte swantham Cleatus – Hit for Megastar and still counting 3. 24 North Katham- Good at WOM but average at B.O 4. D Company - Turns in to ‘X’ 5. Ezhamathe varavu – Pain of failure of maestro
