Geetha Arts owned by Allu Arvind re-released their 2008 film, Jalsa a few months back on the eve of Pawan Kalyan’s birthday is well-established news. The film’s 4K projection version was screened in a record number of screens both in domestic circuits and overseas.
It is widely known that Jalsa created all-time record among films that had a re-release in recent times. Cashing in on the craze of Pawan Kalyan and director Trivikram, the film grossed more than Rs 3 crore. Later, as a New Year special, a few weeks back Pawan Kalyan’s iconic hit, Kushi’s 4K version was screened across twin Telugu states and witnessed a sensational run for three days and breached solid revenues.
Now, the latest we hear from our sources is that Geetha Arts is planning to re-release ace director SS Rajamouli and Mega Powerstar Ram Charan’s blockbuster, Magadheera. If everything goes as per the plan, the remastered version of Magadheera will be out in March last week as Ram Charan’s birthday special.
Released in 2009, Magadheera shattered all the existing records and became the first Telugu film to collect more than Rs 60 crore share at the worldwide box office. Magadheera’s success gave confidence to director SS Rajamouli to think bigger and do films like Baahubali. Co-starring Kajal Aggarwal as the female lead, MM Keeravaani composed soundtracks for this landmark film.
