After a spate of many flops and disasters, Kangana Ranaut is coming back on the big screen once again with Tejas. Kangana’s last film, Chandramukhi 2, was also a disaster, critically and commercially.
But going by its dismal advance bookings and zero hype, the trade has already declared the film a washout even before the release.
The film has not sold even 1000 tickets in the National Chain of Multiplexes (PVR, INOX, and Cinepolis) till now and the film is scheduled to release tomorrow. Trade experts say that a 2-crore net opening for this film will be termed a miracle.
Kangana has been relentlessly promoting the film on various platforms and also trying to grab the attention of certain right-wingers by praising Prime Minister Modi as an incarnation of God. She has shown her film to BJP ministers like Rajanth Singh. She is also posting images of herself with National Security Advisor Ajit Doval.
One can only hope that Kangana’s strategies draw audiences to theaters on the opening day. If positive word-of-mouth begins to circulate, “Tejas” may have a chance to at least achieve some respectable numbers during its theatrical run.
