Overcoming Challenges: The Telugu-language film “Tillu Square” defied expectations and emerged as a major box office success. Prior to its release, the movie faced production delays and crew member departures, leading to audience uncertainty. However, these hurdles were overcome as the film received positive feedback from the very first show.
Surpassing Expectations: “Tillu Square” not only met expectations but exceeded them. The film created a stir at the box office, generating strong ticket sales even during its early morning screenings on opening day. This momentum extended beyond the Telugu states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, with theaters in the US reporting sold-out shows. The film’s positive trajectory is anticipated to continue throughout the weekend.
A Collaborative Effort: An interesting aspect of the film’s success is the collaborative writing effort behind the “Tillu” character and its signature witty dialogues. While Sidhu Jonnalagadda is credited as the writer for both “DJ Tillu” (the prequel) and “Tillu Square,” he received crucial assistance from Ravi Antony. Antony, a rising writer and actor, played a significant role in shaping the character and crafting trendy dialogue. His on-screen performance in the film “MAD,” wielding a tube light, was particularly well-received and added considerably to the film’s entertainment value.
A Bright Future: The success of “Tillu Square” has solidified the writing reputation of the Sidhu-Ravi duo. This has generated excitement and anticipation for future installments in the “Tillu” franchise.
