In an unexpected turn of events, an animated film has turned out to be one of the highest-grossing box office releases in recent history, raking in a whopping ₹300 crore. Mahavatar Narasimha, directed by Ashwin Kumar, has shown that good content can overcome obstacles, even without a super-star cast. This devotional drama has surprised people and registered a huge impact at the theatres.
The film has now completed an unprecedented 50-day run in theaters – something which is quickly becoming unthinkable in the world of cinema today. What is even more absurd is that it accomplished this on more than 200 screens, which is what allows it to be considered record-breaking. Even after so many weeks, Mahavatar Narasimha still remains, still holding the box office and still proving its staying power.
With a memorable score by Sam C.S, this monumental success has shown that, given great content, even an indiscriminate star-less film can hit it big and leave a long-lasting impact at the box office. This achievement is a new milestone for animated movies in Indian cinema and is a challenge for upcoming ventures.
