Allu Sirish's Kotha Janta, Sunil's Bheemavaram Bullodu, Nara Rohit's Prathinidhi and Srinivas Avasarala's Oohalu Gusa Gusa Laade have been declared as hits.
Films like Minugurulu, Chandamama Kathalu, Kamalatho Na Prayanam and Anamika received critical acclaim. While Krishna Vamsi's Paisa failed, Puri Jagannath has scored a decent success with 'Heart Attack'. Sampoornesh Babu's Hrudaya Kaleyam made its presence felt. Manchu's hasn't had a great year so far as Pandavulu Pandavulu Thummeda and Rowdy didn't fetch desired results.
Except Ajith's Aata Arambam, Vishal's Indurudu and Bhadram, None of the dubbed flicks have done a good business at Tollywood box office. Even the much-hyped Rajinikanth starrer Vikram Simha has bitten the dust.
Until 2013, Tollywood used to have only 10 hits out of 180-200-odd films. The situation is much better in 2014 as the hit count has already neared 10 within 6 months.
