1st week share expected to be around 20 crores($5.05M). Let's wait and see for the exact figure.

 

Athidi released with high expectations and opened very well. Some people expected the movie to be double pokiri which is not a healthy practice in this industry. People should realise that they will not like even pokiri if they watch with expectations. Athidi proved it is a different movie and a new hit from mahesh. People are converting from Pokiri hangover to Athidi. Everyone will chant Athidi records from now. The hardcore fans and normal audience started loving the film since 1st day. Despite of the divide talk on 1st two days, athidi whooped the boxoffice and generated a massive hit talk.

 

Finally, as expected after 4 days the talk came out. Superhit and highest grosser of the year 2007. Athidi will be the 3rd film for mahesh to gross more than 30 crores. No other hero in tollywood has this record. Athidi can become the second biggest grosser in tollywood.

 

Mahesh satisfied fans with mass role in pokiri and double satisfied in Athidi as a Perfect MASS hero.
