Sumanth’s Malli Raava made some buzz but couldn’t escape a flop.
Akkineni Akhil’s re-launch was way better than his debut film. However, it failed to recover the high production cost and ended up as a big dud in terms of return on investment.
Allu Sirish’s ambitious science fiction thriller Okka Kshanam also couldn’t get going in spite of decent word of mouth.
2 Countries starring Sunil was a non-starter and turned out to be one of the biggest flops in the actor’s career.
