In the case of 'Janatha Garage', The talk generated on Day 1 and First Week revenue were completely contrast. Most of the critics expected it to be an average grosser at best. To their shock, It became a memorable movie for the whole Team.
Koratala Siva: 'I was disappointed and tensed with the response on Day 1. Especially, Negative Talk was generated through Benefit Show. Reviewers were unable to estimate the stamina of the movie and grasp the pulse of the common audience as they spent sleepless night. Since morning shows, Word-of-Mouth has been positive and we began receiving good appreciation from all the section'.
Does Koratala Siva endorses the idea of 'No More Benefit Shows'? Majority of the people who attend Benefits Shows would fit in one of these categories - Hardcore Fans, Anti-Fans, Critics & Industry Folks.In most occasion, Talk would be negative due to high expectations and wrong intentions. Films with mass appeal hardly gets effected by such negative campaign and it was proven in the case of 'Baahubali' & 'Sarrainodu'. The actual talk will be out with Morning Shows and fate of the movie would be decided by the end of Second Show on Day 1.
