Sarileru Neekevvaru is on course of becoming a hit at the box office. It is just a few crores shy of breaking even and should reach that point by this weekend.
Of course, a poster reading Rs. 200 Cr gross collection worldwide was released as a formality, but that's a distant possibility in reality.
Media anticipated that the makers of Sarileru Neekevvaru would announce a number higher than Rs. 220 Cr that was printed on Ala Vaikunthapuramulo's latest poster.
But during meet the press, producer Anil Sunkara dodged the questions regarding collection figures.
"Situation is a bit sensitive now. We will give the final figure after the theatrical run is complete," he stated.
Even Anil Ravipudi and Dil Raju laughed off the questions regarding box office collection.
Looks like, the constant trolling on social media and getting snubbed by the media for releasing fake numbers have silenced the producers of Sarileru Neekevvaru.
They may have to settle down with the record of highest grossing film in Mahesh's career as it is unlikely to break any records by the time its theatrical run ends.
