While being the No. 1 anchor on television, Suma Kanakala, who has been the host of every film festival, has made a re-entry into cinema with the film ‘Jayamma Panchayati’. This film, which came out to an audience last Friday, wrapped up mixed talk. Although the director shot ‘Jayamma Panchayati’ with a good point as well as a nativity that no one has touched so far, the effect on the outcome of the film was that the story was weak.
However, the movie did not seem to be able to maintain its momentum after the first day. Once we look at the First Weekend Collections:
Nizam 0.27 cr
Seeded 0.11 cr
Uttarandhra 0.13 cr
Yeast 0.06 cr
West 0.04 cr
Guntur 0.07 cr
Krishna 0.07 cr
Nellore 0.04 cr
AP + Telangana (Total) 0.79 cr
Rest of India + Overseas 0.04 cr
Worldwide (Total) 0.83 cr
The theatrical business of ‘Jayamma Panchayati’ was Rs 3.45 crore. This movie needs a breakeven which means it has to get a share of Rs 3.5 crore. By the end of the weekend, this film had grossed Rs 0.83 crore a share. The film, which seemed somewhat okay on the first day, became very dull after that.
Competitive films like ‘Ashokavanam lo Arjuna Kalyanam’ and ‘Bhala Thandanana’ had an effect on this movie. However, compared to ‘Bhala Thandanana’, this movie did not seem to matter.
