Previously, trade experts used to say that the months of February and March are the dullest months in terms of box office results. With the youth getting busy with examinations during these two months, not a lot of filmmakers released their movies. But the pandemic changed this scenario completely.
The schedules of examinations got completely shuffled which made February and March free for releases in the last two years. Even big-budget films are getting released in Feb and March but it resulted in November becoming a very dull month. Notable films are not getting released during this month and many filmmakers started to ignore this month as it is in between big festivals like Dasara and Sankranti.
October is considered as a festive month due to Dasara and Diwali when big films hit the screens while well-known films start arriving once again in mid-December. The producers and directors are not risking movie releases in November as many films are getting postponed. Leaving Sirish’s ‘Urvashivo Rakshasivo’ and Samantha’s ‘Yashoda’, there are no other notable releases this month.
Allari Naresh’s ‘Itlu Maredumilli Niyojakavargam’, Abhiram and Teja’s ‘Ahimsa’, ‘Hunt’ and many other films are not arriving in November. As we know, Allu Sirish’s film is not getting enough collections despite getting decent talk. For the past couple of years, there are no hits in the month of November. We need to see what will be the result of ‘Yashoda’. If it fails, this month will be too long for the producers and even for the audience who are awaiting the big releases.
