Till just 3 months back, one wondered if even big budget Bollywood movies would be able to hit a century. Such was a draught of well performing films at the box office that week after week one faced disappointments from the most expected quarters. However, the situation has changed now in last couple of months. Week after week there is a film arriving which is doing well and now even the most unexpected of films are seeing good footfalls in theatres.

This is being seen with Mahavatar Narsimha as well, the Hindi version of which is running riot as it ended up collecting Rs. 16.27 crores more on Sunday. While the collections have been on an upswing ever since its release, the overall total is now super impressive, what with Rs. 50 crores mark being crossed in just 10 days and the overall numbers standing at Rs. 65.64 crores. In fact, it could well have done it in 9 days itself but then fell short of this feat by just a few lakhs. For a film that opened at Rs. 1.46 crore on its first Friday (a number that was not really expected from this animation mythological film!), to see more than 40 times its collections in next 9 days goes on to show the kind of acceptance that it has gained.

There is a lot more that the film will now do in days to come as it will start stepping its foot in the interiors as well. Now it’s a given that a lifetime of Rs. 100 crores+ will come in, and it would be truly remarkable if it could actually manage to create a case for itself for a score past Rs. 125 crores mark as well.
