Allu Arjun’s Impact −Checkmate To Three Stars

We need not go any further back than just ten days. In the year-end round-up of most movie lovers, there were three films at the top when it came to expectations on the movie and their box office performances. The three biggies are Rangasthalam, Bharat Ane Nenu, and the untitled Jr NTR and Trivikram movie.

However, within a span of few days, on the New Year, it all changed. The Impact teaser of Naa Peru Surya arrived, and it has turned the tables. Now people have entirely shifted to the performances talk, and the Allu Arjun starrer finds a prominent place. In fact, many have already started claiming it as a ‘real’ different one and are putting aside a biggie like Bharat Ane Nenu as they don’t expect anything different from it. It is going to be the same Mahesh Babu, many voices say unanimously.

Coming to the Mega camp also, Rangasthalam was and is build up as the game changer for Ram Charan. It still could be as they expect, but since the arrival of the teaser of Naa Peru Surya, fans are finding it tough to avoid in family comparisons. It is now not only a case of watching box office receipts but also regarding winning accolades for performances.

And finally, Jr NTR would be moving to a Trivikram style. It will be different for the star, no doubt, but not for the industry as many other heroes have already done that. So, no matter how one slice and dices, Naa Peru Surya from the teaser looks vastly different, and something that no big hero has tried in recent times. It is a New Year checkmate from Bunny to others who ignored him altogether as he was working with a new director.
