Sivaji is a big Utterflop disaster In Andhra Pradesh. No distributor is going to recover his money. Bet on it. A big dud in Uttarandhra with more than 1.5 crores loss, 1 crore loss in East and West Godavari, 60 Lakhs loss in Guntur territory. 1.5 crores loss in Ceded, Nizam may enter into safe zone without profits. The 3rd week 50% attendance is bcos of Shankar's reputation in A.P. He didnot disappoint with his earlier movies. Compare Aparichithudu (Anniyan) collections in Andhrapradesh with this crap. He lost all his reputation with this utter crap movie. Operation Duryodana a small budget 1 crore rupee movie is faring better and fetched 2 crore rupees profit than this bumper hyped Rajini Shankar AR Rehman AVM viagras.

Not trying to offend Rajini fans, the fact is that Shivaji is a flop in Andhra. In only Telangana region in and around Hyderabad, the movie might be a safe venture without profits. In all the other places,its a loss venture and is a flop.

Sivaji is made esp for rajni fans and for the Tamil people.
THis movie running in AP is in itself an added bonus !!!

tell me, how many top telugu star's movies get dubbed in tamil and create a sensation.

I remember Mahesh Babu's Murari in tamil ran for 1 week in Trichy and Madurai. His movie Arjun , dubbed in tamil ran may be for 2 days.
Chiru's movies are not dubbed after he lost his market in TN due to some illogical and stupid movies. The only city where telugu movies have some response is chennai, as its a metro with a sizable telugu crowd.

Now compare this to Tamil heros, almost all of them have created a market ( except vijay,ajith) in AP. Vikram, Surya, Vishal , apart from the titans Rajni and Kamal have a huge market in AP. Even simbu is dubbing his movies of late .
