Mahesh Babu’s movie “Guntur Karam” wasn’t a big hit with Telugu audiences who had liked his previous films with director Trivikram. Critics said the story wasn’t very interesting and the movie didn’t make you feel much. They also said the movie didn’t have the kind of clever dialogues Trivikram is known for.
However, the movie did well thanks to Mahesh Babu’s performance and funny one-liners. It was also released on Netflix in several languages, including Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, and Malayalam. Even two weeks after it came on Netflix, “Guntur Karam” was still one of the top 10 trending movies on the platform, both in Telugu and Hindi.
Five weeks after it came to Netflix, “Guntur Karam” is still on the Top 10 list in India, even with new movies being added. It’s also doing well in Bangladesh and Pakistan! This is probably because people in these countries hadn’t seen the movie in theaters yet and so they didn’t have high expectations. The popular song “Kurchini Madathapetti” and Mahesh Babu’s fame also helped people watch the movie.
So, it seems like “Guntur Karam” isn’t as bad as some people thought, but it just wasn’t what Telugu audiences were hoping for from this director-actor team.
