Govindudu Andarivaadele released and no one knows how the film is doing because Telugu box office sites absolutely suck and fans take 2 different extremes. But a great site to examine is Andhra Box Office - the king of excel sheets.
Being that it is the biggest Mega family supporter, the site should be ecstatic and should be regurgitating the wonderful collections. Unfortunately for them, things aren't going so well. In fact, their went from excitement to concern within hours.
With the disappointing 1st day numbers, they tried to damage control with the second day numbers.
They claim that Day 2 is "steady" and is expected to make 3.75 crores. But wait...it is a
holiday.
On Day 2 of Aagadu, the site claimed the film slowed down with 3.3 crores AP/Nizam share and it is not good for the "High prices it was sold at". I even kept the unnecessary capitalization of the H in high to increase the dramatic effect.
So the difference between a holiday and a non-holiday is only 45 lakhs? Plus, for all the talk about Aagadu being sold at "High prices", ABO itself reported that GAV was sold for RECORD prices in some areas as seen here.
Despite all that, those were only estimates. Estimates based on what? Who knows? The "real" numbers are yet to be put up or even tweeted in some areas. It is okay though. It takes time for them to get creative on those spreadsheets. It takes a lot of effort to inflate these collections daily and sometimes its frustrating. So accidentally, their fanism for the Mega family completely came out and the whole act they put up as a leading professional box office site is gone in seconds.
Anyway, good luck to Andhra Box Office in their aspirations!
