Kollywood hero Arya was introduced to Telugu audiences through the film ‘Varudu’! After that, he impressed with films like ‘Nene Ambani’, ‘Aata Arambham’, ‘Vadu Veedu’ and ‘Raja Rani’. His latest movie as a hero is ‘Captain’. This movie hit the screens on September 8. Shakti Soundar Rajan is the director of this movie.
Arya has produced this film under the banner of ‘The Snow People’ with ‘Think Studios Association’. This film is being released in Telugu by ‘Shreshth Movies’, a famous producer, distributor and father of hero Nitin, Sudhakar Reddy. Recently Sudhakar Reddy’s released Tamil film ‘Vikram’ was a huge success and the buyers have faith in ‘Captain’ as well.
Aishwarya Lakshmi, Simran, Harish Uttaman, Kavya Shetty, Gokul Nath played important roles in the film. That’s why this movie did decent theatrical business in Telugu states. Once we see their details:

The theatrical business of ‘Captain’ was Rs.1.61 crores. Sudhakar Reddy is released in many areas. But to break even, this movie has to earn a share of Rs.1.8 crores. If the film gets positive talk, there are chances of breaking even. Otherwise it is difficult. Because on September 9, movies like ‘Oke Oka Jeevitham’ and ‘Brahmastram’ are going to be released.
