Trade: A Huge Disaster At The Box Office

RX 100 fame Karthikeya has shown over confidence in his latest film Hippi. He stated that it would be ten time to that of RX 100.

He has not only overestimated his potential but also wrongly estimated the film to take box office by storm.

The film's chances looked bleak even before its theatrical release as there wasn't any buzz around it.

Hippi opened to miserable collections everywhere and has just collected around Rs. 70 lakhs in its first two days. The film is sure to crash further from Monday, meaning it is heading for a huge disaster. Readmore!

Karthikeya and the makers of Hippi believed that he has immense following among the youth after RX 100.

The makers also made sure to have masala elements like skin show, lip locks and double meaning dialogues so that it attracts the younger crowds and a section of masses. But the ploy backfired big time and has taught a lesson to the young actor. 

Other releases like 7 and Killer also haven't shown any impact at the ticket windows. It is yet another disappointing weekend for Telugu Cinema box office.
