On May 31, 2024, three highly anticipated films—Gam Gam Ganesha, Bhaje Vaayu Vegam, and Gangs of Godavari—premiered across the Telugu states. Among these, Gangs of Godavari emerged as the top grosser, despite receiving mixed reviews.
Karthikeya’s Bhaje Vaayu Vegam started off slowly, but positive word of mouth has significantly boosted its occupancy rates. Meanwhile, Gam Gam Ganesha is striving to draw in audiences, with the next few days being crucial for its success.
However, all three films are expected to see a dip in attendance tomorrow (June 4), as the election results in Andhra Pradesh will be announced. This election season has generated unprecedented tension, with everyone keenly awaiting the announcement of the new Chief Minister. There is also significant interest in Pawan Kalyan, who is anticipated to win his seat from Pithapuram.
Given the heightened political excitement, audiences are likely to stay glued to their TV screens, leading to a noticeable decline in theater attendance. It remains to be seen how these films will fare amidst the election frenzy.
