'Animal' Overshadowing 'Hi Nanna'! Nani Has To Strike Back!
This is going to be a huge threat to the film's box-office prospects. 'Animal' is going to be released on 1st December while 'Hi Nanna' is coming on 7th December.
Natural star Nani is very confident on his upcoming release 'Hi Nanna'. He touched on an emotional subject right after a high-voltage mass action movie 'Dasara'. This explains the belief he has on the content of 'Hi Nanna'. He is carrying the entire burden of promotions all by himself.
Many expected the film's leading lady Mrunal Thakur to be a part of it but she is busy with her prior commitments. This is making it difficult for her to allot time for 'Hi Nanna' promotions. But Nani is doing all he can to publicize the film and is coming up with creative ideas as well. He is trying all kinds of promotions to attract the audience towards this fun emotional drama.
He even used political fever for his promotions by releasing videos like 'Hi Nanna' party. His imitation of KCR went viral and the movie's songs generated a good buzz on the movie. The trailer was highly impressive but it is Nani's promotional tactics that are impressing the audience more. When everything was going in favor of the film, the trailer of 'Animal' dropped.
It created a euphoria and everyone is talking about the trailer as well as the film which is releasing on 1st December. In addition to the trailer, the pre-release event was held in a grand manner. Huge names like superstar Mahesh Babu and SS Rajamouli arrived as chief guests for the event. The hype went to a whole new level and the buzz over 'Hi Nanna' went down drastically. The sound which was heard till a few days back went completely silent regarding 'Hi Nanna'.
This is going to be a huge threat to the film's box-office prospects. 'Animal' is going to be released on 1st December while 'Hi Nanna' is coming on 7th December. Though a gap of one week helps, the humongous hype on 'Animal' is something to worry about. If the movie manages to get a positive talk, the audience will flock to theatres and it will have a huge affect on the box office for at least 2-3 weeks. Also, there are people who may not be willing to spend money on movies successively for two weeks.
So, Nani has to act immediately and turn the audience towards him. The promotions of 'Hi Nanna' have to be on par with 'Animal'. Though Nani has a firm grip locally, the hype and buzz around 'Animal' will definitely affect him in the urban areas. Nani has to focus more and up his game in order to generate more hype on 'Hi Nanna'.
