Mahesh Babu's upcoming film "One-Nenokkadine" may clash with Jr NTR's "Ramayya Vastavayya" at the box office in September.
The makers of "One-Nenokkadine" are reportedly planning to release the film during the Dussehra season. They are looking out to screen the film from 28 September. On the other hand, the makers of Jr NTR's "Ramayya Vastavayya" have planned to release the film on 27 September.
Earlier, it was reported that "Ramayya Vastavayya" was slated for release on 7 August to cash in on the Eid festival as well as Independence Day weekend. Speculations were also rife that "Power Star" Pawan Kalyan's film "Attharintiki Daaredi" would also be released during that time, suggesting a big clash between Pawan and NTR films.
However, the clash was averted with "Ramayya Vastavayya" makers announcing a different release date. It seems the film would now have to battle it out with Mahesh's "One-Nenokkadine".
Big films of A-list stars avoid clashing with each other as it might result in huge loss of revenue. But the clash between Mahesh and Jr NTR's films look inevitable as of now.
Mahesh Babu is one of the most popular actors of south cinema. His last release "Seethamma Vakitlo Sirimalle Chettu" was a big success, and the expectations for "One-Nenokkadaine" are high. A small teaser of the film, which was released on the eve of superstar Krishna's birthday (31 May) has generated a lot of buzz. Directed by Sukumar, "One-Nenokkadaine" is said to be a psychological thriller and Mahesh would be sporting three different get-ups in the film.
Jr NTR is also equally popular among the masses in the Telugu film industry. After a string of flops, the actor had a big hit in "Baadshah", which was released in April this year. Fresh from the success of the film, NTR will be back in action with "Ramayya Vastavayya." Directed by Harish Shankar, "Ramayya Vastavayya" is touted to be a commercial entertainer. Jr NTR will reportedly play a dual character, with one of them being a college student role.
There is no official confirmation on the release date from the makers of Mahesh Babu film. In case of a clash, it remains to be seen whether both films would release at the same time or one of them would back out.
