Mega heroes have huge fan base than any other in Tollywood. Irrespective of talk, mega films get phenomenal openings. Likewise, Varun Tej who is yet to deliver a commercial hit has disappointed mega fans once again with Loafer. The young mega hero has won hearts with his matured performance, but Puri’s poor work on writing and making is killing the movie chances at box office.
Loafer mostly got average to below average ratings and response from public was also negative. Despite these facts, the movie has got exceptional openings. Loafer minted around Rs 3.75 crores of shares on its first day in AP and TS. This is in fact, career best opening for Varun Tej.
Loafer collected a share of 50 Lakhs in Ceeded, 38 Lakhs in Uttarandhra, 38 Lakhs in Guntur, 36 Lakhs in East, 25 Lakhs in Krishna and 24 Lakhs in West Godavari. Day one estimation for Nizam area is around Rs 1.30 crores.
The figures hint that, Varun has good support from all mega groups. On the flip side, according to trade sources, Loafer day two collections are not up to the mark owing to many reasons. Negative mouth talk, release of other big ventures like Dilwale, Bajirao Mastani and Dilwale are prime reasons for weak shares on second day.
