Hyderabad, August 9 - Veteran Telugu superstar Chiranjeevi is gearing up his second release of the year in the form of "Bholaa Shankar". It is an official remake of the 2015 Tamil film "Vedalam", and also stars Tamannaah Bhatia, Keerthy Suresh, and Sushanth in prominent roles.

Directed by Meher Ramesh, "Bhola Shankar" is one of the least hyped movies of megastar Chiranjeevi which led to below-expected response in advance sales. Scheduled to release on August 11, the movie, however, is still to open with a good collection due to Chiranjeevi's star power and well-received promos.



Chiranjeevi's last film "Waltair Veerayya" emerged as a super hit at the box office, despite that, the pre-release theatrical business of "Bhola Shankar" is the lowest (yet good) for the actor in recent times. The movie has been valued at approx. 80 crores worldwide which will be its break-even target to emerge as a clean hit, according to T2BLive.

In two Telugu states (Andhra Pradesh and Telangana), the movie has been valued at approx. 67.50 crores, including 22 crores in the Nizam area. It will need to score approx. 68 crores share (100+ crores gross) collection to break even in AP-TG. The rest of the Indian theatrical business has been fixed at 5 crores while overseas business is approx. 7 crores. Overall, it will need to score 125+ crore gross worldwide to emerge as a box office hit.

"Bhola Shankar" is produced by AK Entertainments and Creative Commercials. The movie tells the story of Shankar (Chiranjeevi), a former gangster who arrives in Kolkata with his adopted sister Mahalakshmi (Keerthy Suresh) for her education and also on a personal mission to hunt down a crime network who were responsible for the death of Mahalakshmi's family.
