As expected and predicted by the trade, The
Mammootty-Prithviraj starrer ‘Pokkiri Raja’ has managed to open with
hundred percent initials. The first day viewers were particularity happy
with the way the movie has handled the stardom of these two actors.
The movie, though with a regular thread, is expected
to bag in the capita, spent on it in another three weeks. While the
other two releases, ‘Alexander The Great’ and ‘Katha Thudarum’ has also
met with good word of mouth, the lack of publicity seems to have
affected the prospects of the former. The Lal film may manage to bring
in audience, if it increases the publicity measures in the coming weeks.
'Katha Thudarum'- the Sathyan film is sure to win the
hearts of the family audience in the long run, with its effective mix
of melodrama and family sentiments.
