'Cycle' continues at the top

  • IndiaGlitz, [Saturday,March 08 2008]

The last week was a more woeful week for the theaters as the cricket finals and the year end exams, did affect their regular collections to a large extent. The week saw a number of new releases, which made no great impact at the box office. The current favorites in the list are:

1. 'Cycle'- This chic thriller continue to make dream collections. With a lot of relatively fresh faces including Vinoo mohan, Vinneeth Sreenivasan, Sandhya and Bhama, the movie already have made two crores as the producers share from its twenty day run. With little competition ahead till the Vishu releases, the movie will become the first super hit of the year.

2. 'Roudram' - Like the last week, Mammootty's first film in the New Year have already become a hit. Even though, the encouraging initial collections that the film fetched has settled down, majority of the centers register around 40-50 percent collections in its sixth week run. The three main centers of Kerala had already made a collection of more than a crore for the film.

3. 'Katha Parayumpol' - In another turn of events, Sreenivasan-Mammootty starrer 'Katha Parayumpol' still maintains its place in the chart tops, even after twelve releases after it. The film is in its 79th day.

4.’College Kumaran’-_Mohanlal's first film of the year turns up as his first flop of the year. But the movie did fare better than some of his precious failures and is entering fortieth day in select centers. Towards the southern region of the state, the film is not such a big flop as it is in the North.

5. ‘Calcutta News’ - The movie remains in the charts due to default, as the recent releases could not invite any interest from the majority of the masses. The film is already declared a big flop, considering its heavy budget.

‘Anthiponvettam’ that was released last week was cleared off from every center in a week. Also the dubbing films that were released last week didn't fare any better. The week has two new releases in ‘Jubilee’ and ‘Salabham’ -which opened to average responses but haven't managed to reach the charts in its opening weekend.
