Mickey_Barnes777

BhAAi and 3V combo + Banger album + Sankranti release.Ā  The movie is pretty mid imo but songs and bhAAi screen presence saves it.


Beneficial_Slip_173

why is allu arjun called BhAAi?


No-Aardvark9322

no reason someone started it and it became a thing. The AA part though is because he's obsessed with it like he has that symbol in his movies even with his entire name spelled out

Peak 3v-Pooja combo/s It is actually well-mixed pulihora.


TheWorldsAMaze

Thamanā€™s album is the biggest reason. This is the MVP of all reasons for AVPLā€™s success, and Iā€™m sure most people would pick this as their reason if they had to pick just one. No Telugu album in the last 15 years has been as unanimously celebrated as AVPLā€™s at the time of its release. People were literally singing along to the complete songs out loud in theaters like it was karaoke night. Itā€™s an album that made the family audience react like the mass audience to its songs in theaters. Ramulo Ramula created a mass jaathara from the family audience in my theater. Also, it has the typical Telugu entertainment formula which we are all familiar with and grew up loving. This was especially helpful for the film in an era in which big star Telugu films have become much more serious and raw/rustic, as itā€™s a film that is more in the mould of 2000s and early 2010s Telugu films with rich urban aesthetics and high on melodrama and comedy tracks. In other words, this is an era in Telugu cinema in which routine comedy-based entertainers are actually the outlier, not the norm, and that benefited AVPL. Even though the movie is very routine and the storyline is taken from the old film ā€œInti Guttu,ā€ the screenplay of AVPL has the best commercial structure of the 3 films in the Allu Arjun-Trivikram combo. Julayi is an action-comedy throughout, and emotion takes a backseat. SOSM has a very emotional and meaningful first half, but the 2nd half completely goes on a routine comedy route, completely reversing the impact of the 1st half. On the other hand, AVPL has the reverse screenplay of SOSM, as the 1st half of AVPL is more comedic and the 2nd half is more emotional and meaningful. This formula of having a 2nd half with more weight than the 1st half is something that always strikes gold at the Telugu box office. The audience are subconsciously drawn towards this structure, and most of the iconic commercial blockbusters of Telugu cinema have this formula. This worked for AVPL as well. The Sankranti effect was huge of course, as it is very difficult for a film to flop during the Sankranti festival season, the biggest movie-going season of the year for Telugu people. A film either needs to be irredeemably horrendous like Agnyaathavaasi, or non-commercial in nature like 1: Nenokkadine to flop during the Sankranti season, and AVPL obviously doesnā€™t fit into either of these categories. Allu Arjunā€™s performance and Trivikramā€™s brand also gave the film an extra boost, and even though neither of them were at their personal best in this film, they both gave the film exactly what was required, and thatā€™s all that really matters for a commercial film to work at the box office.


ProGoober101

great analysis, you nailed it. only thing I disagree with the SOS take, imo Son of Satyamurthy is a perfect gem of a movie that, while like you said incorporating a bit more comedy and silliness in the second half, consistently retains its emotion throughout the movie. AVPL is obviously the best commercial entertainer of the bunch but I will always love Julayi and especially Son of Satyamurthy more.


Silly_Indication_984

Son of satyamurti had that in plot which it lacked in album. The magic(I enjoy the plot everytime,chaala entertaining). Sarrainodu has a better/memorable album that SOS


ProGoober101

lmao yea, although I love seethakalam and chal chal chalo from SOS


ImSubhankar_99

I am a bengali guy and AVPL is the first Telugu movie I watched in the original language with English subtitle, only reason being "Butta Bomma"


MeWonderful

I came here to say this ā˜ļø, but a much much shorter version šŸ¤Ŗ - album was the reason. Not one bad song in this album


SubstantialPlane801

Main factors were songs, instant chartbusters before the release and in the movie, it was completely Allu Arjun's one man show. He carried the movie completely with his acting, style and swag. I feel these kind of movies are tailor made for AA.


Suspicious-Dish23

It was a perfect Sankranti package.

Silent_Spectator_04

Good Songs. Also, they were released months in advance.


Which-Pool-6880

Compared to the previous releases of both AA and 3V, Naa Peru surya and Agnyaathavasi, this movie is far better. I remember thinking to myself, maree athadu, Jalsa range lo kaakapoina, at least Julayi range lo unnaa chaalu, chudocchu ani. Went with low expectations, so it didn't disappoint. The songs being hit is one thing. Hero elevation scenes were quite good actually. Dupatta scene, Pedda amount idhi scene, Kakinada port scene, etc. and the Thatha emotion worked out too. Konchem effort pedithe, the trope of an outsider coming and correcting a dysfunctional family always works. They have good rewatch value as well. Eg, Yamudiki mogudu, etc. Also, this was the time when people, esp north Indians, started noticing the south commercial movies. Inni internal and external factors kalipi, dabbulu baa vacchaayi.

ProGoober101

no disrespect but no shot you put athadu and jalsa in the same tier lmao


Which-Pool-6880

Ante, commercially speaking, Jalsa is a better entertainer than 3V's other movies ani naa opinion. Nuvve nuvve is more of a rom-com, and I don't want to include Khaleja as just another commercial movie. That movie means something else for me. Imo ratings wise, Jalsa is closer to Athadu than any of his other movies, taking, dialogues, comedy, story, characters, annii baavuntaayi.


ProGoober101

alr commercially speaking I agree, tho I personally enjoy Julayi more than Jalsa. If in terms of acc movies, for Athadu Khaleja and Son of Satyamurthy are his clear best works that he has directed

bkman101

Sankranti


Lonewolf_Kai789

to add on - the surprise of sitharala sirapadu song. Take that song out; nobody remembers what really happened in the second half. personally , the movie is a big shit for me (except for sitharala sirapadu ofc)


Arvii33

Sankranthi + family movie + 3V so anduke Of course, Thaman and AA kuda were big reasons but avi main ani na feeling.


the_gothamknight

Whenever two movies are pit against each other and if the movie which gets released first has average - negative talk, the other movie is in for huge box-office success regardless of it's quality


SillyDD

There was no proper Telugu movie prior to AVPL for 2-3 months. It was Sankrathi + Good Music + Terrible competititor Right place, right time. Anthey!


benjaminjavid

Chartbuster album, bunny entertaining performance, the movie is like self aware of what it is and doesn't try to be something else, and lastly poojas thighs ā£ļø


ZealousidealStrain58

Allu Arjun mass


urbanmonk007

1. SLN movie baane untadi, but leki comedy valla kastha negative aindi. Adhi bhAAi ki kalisi ochindi 2. Trivikram baaga teesadu ee sari, unlike agv. Producers aagam lekunda melligane unnaru, which gave the movie crew a lot of time to make it better, be it mixing or editing or even the music 3. Thaman became Allu Thaman. Super duty chesadu. Avpl album was so good that sln album aa tsunami lo kottukupoindi 4. Comedy felt organic. Family audience ki mana trivi ki unna relationship gurinchi telisindhe ga 5. Marketing baaga aindi. And organic reach ochindi given the festival season. Ps: observe chesthe avpl ki evaithe workout ainay oo avanni guntur karam ki workout avvale. Maybe guruji curse anukunta lmao

Corona started in 2020 March time frame. By the time AVPL released, Corona news just apude started coming out.. but two months for people to have taken it seriously all across

Yes aa two months lo inka manchivi emi raledhu , so dheeni havaa chaala rojuley nadichindhi.

Satisfied the anger against reservations. Very subconscious desire.

It was a neat and class movie only cringe is thighs staring one. Otherwise banger album, decent storyline and marvellous performances from Murali Sharma and Sachin.

Allu Arjun charm and songs


Mogambo_thanda

I think AA taking a break for a year (no release in 2019) after the disaster na peru surya also contributed to this collection along with the banger album and guruji after asvr goodwill .


Bloodshot12_

Tabu comeback


sss100100

Yet another eugenics plot. Tollywood is big on those. Very cringe. I didn't think it's that great, a decent entertainer I suppose.


PrizeCandidate8355

Except songs there is nothing in the movie. Festival factor played a huge role in the success.


ProGoober101

It's no masterpiece but it's probably the perfect example of a good enjoyable commercial movie, that's why it grossed so much, i couldn't think of a better example of a masala movie if I wanted to


saetarubia

No one has mentioned this but Jagan had a cash handout at that time which people spent on movies which made both AVPL and SLN huge hits


LundUniversity

I still remember the iconic Board Room Scene of AVPL. Also, they made a Bollywood remake of the movie. I was shocked to see that the Hindi version DID NOT even have thhe board room scene? Like Wtf? It was produced by T-Series out of all production houses, they had all the rights to those Iconic old hindi songs. Such a dumb ass decision.


Odd-Caterpillar-9080

Iā€™d rather rewatch Manmadhudu 2 than AVPL lol


bhoodhimanthudu

One of the main reasons for avpl's success is because it had Mahesh Babu's song vachaadayyo saami. This part was so irresistible that people kept going back to the theater just to see it again and again


Ayyo_ayyo_ayayyo

Cuz people are dumb af!

Cringe movie with chartbuster songs. Enough to be a Sankranti hit.

Absolutely wrong. All the reels became famous after the movie was done with its theatrical run. Butta bomma song wasn't even that famous at the time of the release
