'Dude' bookings showing aggression in Telugu!
Pradeep Ranganathan's first two films 'Love Today' and 'Dragon' achieved good success in Telugu, and he has a good following from the Telugu audience. This is strongly proven by the bookings of the movie 'Dude'. The advance bookings for the premiere shows of the film are surprising, especially in the overseas market.
According to the latest information, 'Dood' has collected about $60K (sixty thousand dollars) for the premiere shows in the USA. What is special about this is that the bookings for the Telugu version are higher than the Tamil version! The Telugu version has already collected $32K (thirty-two thousand dollars), while the Tamil version has collected only $28K (twenty-eight thousand dollars).
A harvest of profits for the buyers!
Due to the huge success of the previous films, the rights of 'Dood' were sold to the buyers at a high price. However, since the Telugu audience has already shown such interest in the film, if the film gets positive talk, the buyers are likely to make huge profits.
'Premalu' fame Mamitha Baiju is playing the heroine opposite Pradeep Ranganathan. 'DJ Tillu' beauty Neha Sshetty also played a key role in the film. The production of the film by the famous production house Mythri Movie Makers and the tunes provided by the young music director Sai Abhyankkar have raised the standard of the film.
Dialogues like "There is no courtesy in the clapper.. There is courtesy in the feelings of the girl behind it" in the trailer are thought-provoking for the youth as well as the family audience. All in all, 'Dude' is not just a youth-filled entertainer, but a film with family emotions that touches on a social issue delicately and is ready to make a splash in the theaters for Diwali. Judging by the enthusiasm of the advance bookings of the Telugu audience, it seems that Pradeep Ranganathan is sure to score a hat-trick hit.
