Tollywood churns out highest number of films in the country. First quarter of 2016 completed couple of days back and let us see how the films did in the first three months of 2016.

New Year started with a bang with Ram's romantic entertainer ‘Nenu Sailaja’ casting a magic spell on all. Ram Gopal Varma too struck form attracting with ‘Killing Veerappan’ in the run up for super Sankranthi.


For the first time after many decades top stars fought with each other during Sankranthi. NTR's ‘Naannaku Prematho’, Nagarjuna's ‘Soggade Chinni Naayana’, Balakrishna's ‘Dictator’ and Sharvanand's ‘Express Raja’ were hit the screens. All the films attracted but Nag's ‘Soggade Chinni Naayana’ emerged as winner with its low budget and huge profits with complete family entertainer. NTR's ‘Naannaku Premato’ attracted class viewers and Balakrishna's ‘Dictator’ fizzled out only with masses. ‘Express Raja’ attracted everyone.

‘Naannaku Premato’ though did well in overseas, turned average in two Telugu states. ‘Dictator’ ended as disaster. When many expected fabulous February after Joyful January, it turned out to be different. Failures hit Tollywood with disasters like ‘Speedunnodu’,’Garam’ and ‘Krishnashtami’. ‘Krishnagadi Veera Prema Gadha’ did decent business and Adavi Sesh's ‘Kshanam’ caught the attention of all.

Earlier films like ‘Seetamma Andalu Ramayya Sitralu’, ‘Padesave’ and ‘Lachimdeviki O Lekkundi’ failed to live up to the expectations. Though films like ‘Terror’ attracted, they disappeared due to lack of theatres. March too turned no different with many small films released like never before with some Fridays witnessing 13-14 films released.
