Huge Blow To Saidharam's Bookings

Megastar's nephew Saidharam Tej is coming up with huge baggage of expectation as his latest movie "Subrahmanyam For Sale" is releasing tomorrow in theatres. But the way producer Dil Raju has planned for this Thursday release is going to be a risky move now.

While bookings are opened for "Subramanyam For Sale" couple of days back, it' a wonder that tickets aren't sold to a houseful yet. Tomorrow's morning shows aren't full because many youths are not having any holiday. There is not even 15% occupancy rate with most multiplexes with 300+ capacity just selling only 2-3 rows of tickets by now. Raju has thought that 24th would be Bakrid holiday and fixed this date, but the date got pushed to 25th by government now. Probably that's the reason for this low occupancy.

In case if film gets hit talk, 25th will see huge rush to theatres, which otherwise will result in poor opening weekend for the hero. A holiday mis-timed, has given such a big blow to Saidharam, perhaps.
