Home Turf: Mahesh Babu Gave It up to Ram Charan

Mahesh Babu with Koratala Siva delivered the biggest non-Baahubali record and inked it in the name of ‘Srimanthudu’ raking $2.8 million sitting comfortably in the number one position, till recently. But, things have changed now and ‘Rangasthalam’ took over the position.

But then, when the same combination ofKoratala-Mahesh came back with ‘Bharat Ane Nenu‘ and opened up to ​blockbuster talk and positive reviews, fans expected it to set yet another non-Baahubali record. The final position is decided and Mahesh lost his home turf to Ram Charan despite equally positive reviews from critics like in the case of ‘Rangasthalam’.

Though ‘Bharat Ane Nenu’ did phenomenally well, it didn’t reach up to the expectations and sideline Ram Charan’s rare achievement in the US. So, the crown is now with Ram Charan until another true blockbuster movie arrives with good content. ‘Rangasthalam’ collected a total gross of $ 3,503,659 and Mahesh’s ‘Bharat Ane Nenu’ fell short to achieve the feat. BAN’s total gross was $3,327,327.
