JJN under performs - LIE costly mistake!

Among August 11th release, Only 'Nene Raju Nene Mantri' is like to emerge as a hit. When two to three films clash, One of them gains more than what it deserves and rest of them end up losing more than what they shouldn't have. That's what happened in the case of 'Jaya Janaki Nayaka' and 'LIE'.

'Jaya Janaki Nayaka' under performed considering the huge asking rate. While Theatrical Rights were sold out for Rs 34 crore, This Boyapati-directorial didn't collect even half of that by the end of First Week. All it managed is a Share of Rs 16.2 crore and Gross of Rs 26.6 crore.

'LIE' is another costly mistake by 14 Reels Entertainment. The Producers Trio need to avoid picking up risky subjects and keep the budgets under control. While 'Nene Raju Nene Mantri' performed equally well in all the Centres, 'JJN' affected Box Office revenues of 'LIE' in territories where it is expected to do well.
