Santhanam is the star!

ALEX PANDIAN PREVIOUS WEEK RANKINGS


ALEX PANDIAN - WEEK : 3 RANKING : 3
Jan 21st 2013 to Jan 27th 2013
No. Shows in Chennai (Weekend) : 183
Ave Theatre occupancy (weekend) : 25%
Collection in Chennai (Weekend) : Rs. 15,34,500
No. Shows in Chennai  (Weekdays) : 264
Ave Theatre occupancy (Weekdays) : 15%
Collection in Chennai (Weekdays) : Rs. 13,39,560

What set out to be an enjoyable commercial film seems to have turned out to be a hotchpotch of action, comedy and romance in random order. While the portions involving Karthi and Santhanam are entertaining, Alex Pandian needed much more juice to keep it going.

Trade Talk :

Alex Pandian started out with good collections but progressively lost its stand at the box office.

Public Talk :

Karthi’s Biriyani looks promising!

ALEX PANDIAN - WEEK : 2 RANKING : 2
Jan 18th 2013 to Jan 20th 2013
No. Shows in Chennai (Weekend) : 414
Ave Theatre occupancy (weekend) : 45%
Collection in Chennai (Weekend) : Rs. 68,28,597

Karthi and Suraj team up for this out and out masala potpourri with not much regard to logic. While the comedy portions save the movie to some extent, Anushka’s presence also provides relief.

Trade Talk :

The above average opening is slowly plummeting into intangible revenues. After a week of its release, looks like Alex Pandian might not breakeven.

Public Talk :

The Bad Boy song might be the only talking point. But, that too has been pushed to the end credits.

ALEX PANDIAN - WEEK : 1 RANKING : 1

Karthi and Suraj team up for this out and out masala potpourri with not much regard to logic. While the comedy portions save the movie to some extent, Anushka’s presence also provides relief.

Trade Talk :

The movie has had a slightly above average opening but with negative criticism it might find the going tough in the weeks to come.

Public Talk :

Karthi and Santhanam’s comedy track sets the pace of the movie.
