Ajith's GBU booking slow / Rashmika out of Prabhas film / Ananya Nagalla Telugu oomph gal

 

Ajith Kumar’s Good Bad Ugly trailer has received mixed responses from fans, but the film is trending well with its ticket sales on BMS. The action biggie is all set to arrive in the theaters on April 10, and it has registered ticket pre-sales of 183K. Vidaamuyarchi’s final pre-sales on BMS were 689K in total. Currently, Good Bad Ugly has registered only 26% of Vidaamuyarchi’s final pre-sales on BMS. It would be interesting to see if GBU picks up pace on BMS and overpowers Ajith Kumar’s last release.

Check out the ticket pre-sales for Kollywood films on BMS three days before their release.

• Leo: 898K
• Jailer: 344K
• The Greatest Of All Time: 325K
• Good Bad Ugly: 183K*
• VidaaMuyarchi: 166K

Will Good Bad Ugly Enter Kollywood Top 5?

Good Bad Ugly needs to beat Vidaamuyarchi‘s total ticket sales of 689K to enter the top 5 ticket pre-sales for Kollywood films on BMS. However, it would be impossible to touch the top 3 spots owned by Leo, Jailer, and The Greatest Of All Time, which registered more than 1 million ticket pre-sales on BMS.

About Good Bad Ugly

Helmed by Adhik Ravichandran, the film stars Ajith Kumar and Trisha Krishnan, alongside Arjun Das, Yogi Babu, Rahul Dev, and others. The film is all set to release in the theaters on April 10 and will clash with Sunny Deol’s Jaat in Hindi in the theaters.

According to CineJosh, Rashmika Mandanna is no longer the female lead in Spirit. She was nearly confirmed for the role, but apparently, one commercial failure was enough for her to be dropped. Their source claims that, in the industry, commercial success often outweighs talent when it comes to casting heroines. If she had been cast, she was expected to receive a remuneration of INR 4 crores, as per the source. The same source also claimed that Rashmika has open dates from June, and things could still change. She might end up being the heroine of Spirit after all.

While there is no official confirmation yet, here’s our take on the rumor: Rashmika Mandanna is a top-tier star. With a strong pan-India appeal, she enjoys recognition that arguably surpasses some top-tier Bollywood actresses, thanks to her widespread popularity in South Indian cinema. In an industry where commercial failures are part of the game, one flop shouldn’t be enough to sideline someone as visible and bankable as Rashmika. That’s why we believe there’s a strong chance this news is just a rumor.

Heroine of Rs 5 crore budget films - Originally a software engineer by profession, Ananya chose to chase her dream of becoming an actor. She took her first step with the short film Shaadi, but it was her big-screen debut in Mallesham that truly put her on the map. Her graceful traditional look and effortlessly natural performance made a lasting impression.

Since then, Ananya has taken on a variety of roles in films like Play Back and Vakeel Saab, gradually building a strong portfolio. She continued to explore diverse characters in offbeat, content-rich projects such as Tantra, Pottel, the web series Bahishkarana, and Srikakulam Sherlock Holmes.
