Top Grossing Telugu Films of 2014: Bunny's Race Gurram, Charan's Yevadu, Nag's Manam & Others

Tollywood industry has witnessed several hits and flops in 2014. The failures of several big-budget films suggest that the audiences are not ready to watch the regular run-of-the-mill stories and prefer to watch films with interesting content.

Check below the list of highest grossing Telugu films of 2014.

Race Gurram

Allu Arjun's "Race Gurram" has emerged as the highest grossing Telugu film of 2014. The film minted over ₹57 crore in its full run at the worldwide box office. The action comedy entertainer has surpassed collections of several hit films including "Mirchi" and "Seethamma Vakitlo Sirimalle Chettu."

"Race Gurram" is placed fourth in the list of all-time highest grossing Telugu films (worldwide). It is also the first Allu Arjun starrer to cross the $1 million at the US box office.

Directed by Surendar Reddy, "Race Gurram" has Allu Arjun, Shaam, Shruti Haasan and Saloni in pivotal roles. Allu Arjun and comedian Brahmanandam's performances were major highlights of the film. The film's music, composed by Thaman, also received good response from the fans.

Yevadu

Ram Charan's "Yevadu" is also one of the highest grossing Telugu films. The action drama, directed by Vamsi Paidipally, received positive feedback from the fans. The film took good openings despite facing competition from Mahesh Babu's "1 Nenokkadine." The psychological thriller opened to mixed reviews and witnessed drop in collections. The poor performance of "1 Nenokkadine" worked in favour of "Yevadu" and the film struck gold at the box office.

"Yevadu" minted ₹47.1 crore share worldwide.

Legend

Nandamuri Balakrishna's "Legend" raked in ₹40.4 crore share at the worldwide box office. The film emerged as one of the biggest hits in Balakrishna's career.

Directed by Boyapati Srinu, "Legend" is a mass action entertainer with all the commercial elements. The film received good reviews from the critics and the audience also gave big thumbs-up to the Nandamuri starrer.

Recently, "Legend" successfully completed 275 days in a few theatres in AP/Telangana areas.

Manam

Akkineni multi-starrer "Manam" was not only critically-acclaimed, but also a commercially successful film. The family drama fetched ₹36.5 crore in its full run at the worldwide box office.

Directed by Vikram Kumar, "Manam" brought three generations of Akkineni family members including ANR, Nagarjuna and Naga Chaitanya together. Akhil (Nagarjuna-Amala's son) also made a cameo appearance in the film.

"Manam" was ANR's last film in his career and unfortunately the actor passed away even before the film hit the screens. Post the release of "Manam," many critics and fans cited that the film is a perfect tribute for ANR and the legendary actor has given one of his best performances in the film.

Power

Ravi Teja starrer "Power" has fetched approximately ₹23 crore and emerged as a hit at the worldwide box office.

The film, directed by KS Ravindra, is a mass masala entertainer with Ravi Teja playing the role of a cop. Hansika and Regina Cassandra are also part of the film's cast.

Loukyam

Gopichand's "Loukyam" has minted approximately over ₹21.55 crore in lifetime collections. The film fared well, despite facing competition from Mahesh Babu's "Aagadu" and Ram Charan's "Govindudu Andarivaadele."

Drushyam

Venkatesh's "Drushyam," a remake of Malayalam film "Drishyam," fared well and raked in ₹20 crore worldwide. The film, directed by Sripriya, has Venkatesh and Meena in lead roles.

Besides these films, a few other Telugu projects did good business at the box office. Naga Shaurya's "Oohalu Gusa Gusalade," Sharwanand's "Run Raja Run" and Nikhil Siddartha's "Karthikeya" are some of the films that performed well at the box office.

Rudhramadevi's Regal Look Revealed

Anushka starrer Rudhramadevi is all set to release in 2015 and Gunasekhar, the director and producer of the film, is leaving no stone unturned to showcase the grandeur of the film, prior to its release. The filmmaker has been toying with the idea of making a film on Rudhramadevi, the 13th century queen who ruled over the Kakatiya kingdom, for several years now and finally, the film is in the post-production phase. 

Apparently, Rudhramadevi is the first Telugu film and only the second Indian film, after Jodha Akbar, where real jewellery was used by the actors. As per the makers, jewellery worth Rs 5 crores, which was supplied by a leading Chennai based jewellery brand, has been used in the film and Gunasekhar will showcase a sneakpeek of all this in the latest teaser which  revealed recently.

Rana Daggubati has also played the lead role in this big budget period drama and it also stars Prakash Raj, Catherine Tresa, Allu Arjun, Nithya Menen and several other actors in important roles. Ilayaraja has scored the music.

Bunny is in Need of Srikanth Addala!

Stylish Star Allu Arjun is the star who raced into the top 5 in Tollywood. Few reports in the recent times revealed that the popularity and the fame of Allu Arjun is just after Pawan and Mahesh. Fan following too is on high standards for Allu Arjun.

Till now, he was seen in mass entertainers and youthful flicks. Films like "Govindhudu Andharivadele" and "Atharintiki Daredhi" are not a part of Bunny's career. If he get into the track with a perfect family entertainer, we can expect Allu Arjun to race further in Tollywood.

As per the analysts, Allu Arjun is in deep need of Srikanth Addala, the specialist in family oriented ventures. Even Krishna Vamsi too is good to go. Srikanth Addala who recently delivered "Mukunda" is preparing a beautiful family oriented story for the next flick. May be, Allu Arjun may bag that offer!

Bunny is on Top of the World

It's been exactly 4,294 days since Allu Arjun's debut film, Gangotri released on March 28, 2003, but the last 12 months have easily been his best. His film, Race Gurram turned out to be the biggest grosser of the year and catapulted him to the elite league of Tollywood stars who command a market of over Rs 50 crore. "Honestly, I feel very shy when I hear people say such things," confesses Allu Arjun smiling. But the stylish star looks at success as a result of a continuous process rather than a standalone event. "One film doesn't change anything much besides public perception. It was Julayi which was a huge comeback for me after an extended lean patch and set the stage for the huge openings for Race Gurram.Now I need to consolidate my market by following up with a few more such hits," he explains.

The biggest compliment though came when his wife Sneha remarked, "I loved the film. I think it's very funny." Apparently, Sneha 'isn't much of a movie buff ', Allu Arjun admits being pleasantly surprised. The actor's pronunciation of his stock phrase Devudaa became a cult expression of surprise. That the film released exactly a week after his son Ayaan was born, made the film's success extra special for the actor. But he is quick to clarify that becoming a father is the 'most incredible feeling in the world', irrespective of the success or failure of the film. "The moment I saw him (Ayaan) for the first time was the most emotionally overwhelming moment of my life. Nothing else can match up to it. You'll have to become a father to understand it," claims Allu Arjun.

He doesn't quite agree about the talk of his son being the lucky charm though. "My son has changed my life forever, no doubt. But director Surender Reddy worked very hard for almost a year to make that film. I don't think he'll be too happy to know that my son was the reason for the film's success (laughs). The movie is a team effort and the success of the film belongs to the entire team," adds Allu Arjun.

From the looks of it, the actor seems poised for a promising 2015 as well.He is presently shooting for director Trivikram Srinivas' next film set for a summer release. The Anushka Shetty-starrer period drama, Rudhramadevi, in which Allu Arjun is playing the iconic Telangana warrior chieftain Gona Ganna Reddy, is also going to hit the screen next year. "I remember Gunasekhar telling me about Gona Ganna Reddy character when shooting for Varudu (2010). It's a great role and a landmark film, being India's first 3D stereoscopic movie. I loved being part of it and am eagerly looking forward to it," he says signing off.

Bunny & Samantha's Hilarious Comedy!

We know the comic timing of Stylish Star Allu Arjun. His was at his best in comedy his latest offing 'Race Gurram'.

My Son is not Luck Factor for Me: Bunny

Well, wait on and go through the entire article before you jump into any wrong conclusions. There is absolute professionalism and simplicity and humbleness in Bunny saying so beyond his fatherhood. Not many heroes would dare to say so but, stylish star Allu Arjun is always a down to earth person who likes to speak his hearts out all the time. He know the value of hard-work of the people who work for him and he knows how to give credits to whom at the right time. By the way, what made Bunny make such bold comments? Check the story out.

Allu Arjun recently admitted that the super success of “Race Gurram” cannot be attributed to the birth of his beloved son Allu Ayaan. Allu Arjun says “My son Ayaan has given me those first ever emotional over-whelming feelings. But frankly I can’t agree that he is the luck charm for Race Gurram to become a swash buckling hit”, says Allu Arjun, without giving us a chance to call his son’s birth as reason for Race Gurram’s staggering success this year.

And also stylish star adds on “Surender Reddy worked harder for an year to make that movie. It’s a team effort and the success belongs to everyone”. That sums up everything for you folks. Bunny needs a pat on his back for this lovely down to earth nature right?

Samantha Trying that Luck with Bunny

Bubbly, cute and innocent acting is always a trick of the sleeve for sensous beauty Samantha Ruth Prabhu. But this hot youngster hasn't tried her hand at comedy though she managed to pull a little in recent Manam. To prove her mettle with comic timing seems like she got a bigger opportunity in Trivikram Srinivas movie.

Bunny is Not Likely to be a Part of that Brand ?

Many famous celebrities are earning a decent income through endorsing reputed brands and when it comes to south India, the companies choose each hero for each language depending up on their popularity and magical features. And one of those companies is the famous Kochi based jewellery group Joyalukkas, which roped in famous south Indian celebrities like Madhavan, Allu Arjun, Suresh Gopi and Sudeep to endorse their shopping malls in each state in south India.

Allu Arjun’s joining forces with Joyalukkas has been phenomenal as not only the stylish star grabbed the attention in Telugu states but also in Kerala with his elegant appearances in the commercials. But now according to the latest reports, Allu Arjun will not be seen in the commercials related to Joyalukkas in 2015.

The news is according to some unofficial buzz, Joyalukkas wishes to get rid of extra promotional expenditure by finishing its each-actor per each language advisement policy and instead it is mostly interested in roping in a famous Bollywood actress to endorse their group of jewellery. Reportedly, they also consider the actresses to be more an eye grabbers than actors and the jewellery promotions suit them too. So, finally Allu Arjun is not likely to be a part of Joyalukkas.

Bunny & Mahesh Tops Google List

Superstar Mahesh Babu has once again proved that he is the most charismatic actor in Tollywood. According to the Google trends, Mahesh Babu is the most searched Telugu actor. In spite of delivering two flop films in 2014, Mahesh was still able to top this list. Surprisingly, Stylish Star Allu Arjun stood second in this list by surpassing Megastar Chiranjeevi, Powerstar Pawan Kalyan and Mega Powerstar Ram Charan. Bunny delivered a blockbuster this year with ‘Race Gurram’ and this film surprised trade analysts by collecting close to 60 crores at the box-office. According to the Google trends, top 5 most searched Telugu actors are Mahesh, Allu Arjun, Prabhas, Chiranjeevi and Pawan Kalyan.

Bunny & Chiru Topped Pawan! How?

We have already revealed the most searched telugu celebrities list released by Google. As Mahesh, Allu Arjun, Prabhas, Chiranjeevi and Pawan form the top-five, it is quite interesting to make a note of Megastar’s entry in this list. With four others being contemporary heroes and Chiranjeevi being a veteran, what made people search for him the most. 

Also at a time when critics are lashing out that Chiu lost his image due to Pawan’s powerful presence, how come the elder brother dominate his brother in searches? Also Allu Arjun has beaten the senior and mighty mega heroes, showcasing that he is the ‘stylish’ ever hero from the family. We have to see what fans will say about this happening. And one wonders why Ram Charan is missing in the list, while Jr NTR is also worth pitiable.  

Who Said Race Gurram is Fluke Hit?

Of late, detractors are reaching to any extent to spit venom. Coming to film critics, they are not even leaving a hit movie like Race Gurram to promote their agenda. Just to fill up columns, it seems like they want to term this biggest hit of the year as a 'fluke' hit in the name of criticism. Will anyone really dare to say that this Surender Reddy directorial is a hit by stroke of luck? 

Race Gurram is one movie where the word 'screenplay' got honoured to a maximum if we talk about recent Telugu movies. Other than Manam and Karthikeya, no other movie would match such a screenplay brilliance with this Allu Arjun, Shruti Haasan starrer. Right from conflict between brothers to heroine's silent therapy sequence, villain's introduction to Kill Bill Pandey sequence, every portion looks as novel as it is.

Also songs deserve a special mention, as the creative workflow that went behind conceiving pieces like Cinema Choopista Maava and Down Down Duppa is terrific. Both songs have different creative themes, different style dancing, folk and dub-step dances and a different visual altogether. A right mix of talent and creativity from Surender Reddy, cinematographer Manoj Paramahamsa and composer Thaman helped delivering a thunderous output. 

When these so-called critics are in two minds during release of the flick, it was audiences who made it a hit as they got thrilled by the overall mastery of the flick. Still, you call Race Gurram a fluke it?

After Bunny & Nithiin, She Romances Vishnu!

Adah Sharma has been succeeded in grabbing the attention of big shots in the industry with her 'Heart Attack'. She hit the jackpot to be seen opposite to Stylish Star Allu Arjun in 'Trishoolam'( tentative') which is being directed by Trivikram.  And now, Adah Sharma has been roped into the female lead of another interesting project. Manchu Vishnu is playing the lead star of this movie. He is currently learning martial arts for this action entertainer. Deva Katta will be directing this movie. Manchu Vishnu will be producing this movie on 24 Frames Factory.

Bunny-Trivikram Film Heads to RFC

The successful combination of director Trivikram and stylish star Allu Arjun is back once again for a new romantic entertainer. Shooting of this film is going on at a brisk pace and according to the latest update, some key scenes are being shot on Allu Arjun in Ramoji Film City.

Bunny will be seen as a wedding planner in this film which also has Samantha, Adah Sharma and Nitya Menon in lead roles.

Produced by K Radhakrishna, this film features Rajendra Prasad, Upendra and Sneha in other prominent roles while DSP is taking care of music. The movie is expected to release in February 2015.

Bunny’s Next Girls - Parineeti and Alia

Expressing his opinions upright, Allu Arjun says that he gets fascinated with different heroines at different times. He used to like Samantha and Nitya Menon a lot until finally he got to work with them in upcoming Trivikram movie. As the Julayi combination is busy wrapping scenes, Bunny has now set his next set of heroines probably. 

“I used to admire Samantha and Nitya Menon for their talents. And among present lot, Parineeti Chopra and Alia Bhatt are my favorites. Even Deepika Padukone comes up with nice performances”, said Allu Arjun. So, we may expect one of these hot-shot Bollywood starlets to sizzle in his upcoming flicks. That’s our Bunny boy!!

Bunny Wants to Do It

Stylish Star Allu Arjun is currently shooting in Ramoji Film City for his upcoming movie. Samantha, Adah Sharma and Nithya Menen are the leading ladies and Trivikram Srinivas is directing this rom-com entertainer. Huge pressure is mounted on this film as Bunny’s last film ‘Race Gurram’ collected 60 cr at the box-office and Trivikram Srinivas’ last movie ‘Attarintiki Daredi’ set a new industry record. So, the fans and movie lovers have a lot of expectations on this untitled film. After the stupendous success of ‘Race Gurram’, many said that the film became a fluke hit at the box-office. Though it became the highest grosser of 2014, critics weren’t too happy with the content of the film. Allu Arjun has decided to prove his distractors wrong and he is determined to show his power at the box-office once again with this Trivikram’s film. Devi Sri Prasad is composing the music and the makers are planning to release the film in the summer of 2015.

Did Shruti Haasan Find Fault with Bunny or Tabloid?

A tabloid has published a story on the iconic scenes of Tollywood in the year 2014. It mentioned about popular 'balancing act' of Allu Arjun and Shruti Haasan from 'Cinema Chupistha' song in the biggest grosser of the year 'Race Gurram'. 

As per the tabloid, Allu Arjun himself suggested Shruti Haasan to change the costume and wear a lungi instead for adding more value to the number. It was Bunny who asked the choreographer Prem Rakshit to prepare an alternative to 'balancing act' in case if Shruti was unable to pull it off.

Shruti, however, didn't agree with his co-star naming Prem Rakshit as choreographer and responded, "Cinema Chupistha from Race Gurram was choroegraphed by Johnny Basha and not someone else". 

Is Shruti Haasan miffed with the article? Does she feels its a mistake of Bunny? Was she angry with the Tabloid for not verifying the facts before publishing?

Balayya Did It Before Bunny!

Swachh Bharat Campaign started by PM Modi with a noble cause of creating awareness on keeping surroundings clean and hygiene is contagiously spreading. We’ve been seeing Tollywood stars have been participating in this mission and nominating other stars.

Perhaps, it’s a good sign that stars who usually don’t find time for their movie promotions but attend brand endorsement for a lump sum are devoting their time for this divine program. Allu Arjun who was nominated by Nagarjuna was to take part in it last Sunday, but he postponed it on sudden demise of producer Nandamuri Janakiram. He is yet to announce a new date.

Meanwhile, actor and Hindupur MLA Nandamuri balakrishna participated actively in Swachch Bharat campaign along with his followers yesterday. Balayya wielded broom for some time and cleaned surroundings.

He posted the photos and a message on his face book wall as, “I was part of the Swachh Bharat Campaign. It’s everyone’s responsibility to keep our surroundings clean and hygiene. Calling all my fans and well wishers to take part in this campaign”

Chances for Bunny Best Actor?

Stylish Star Allu Arjun turned out to be the 'Hero of the Year' with the year's biggest hit 'Race Gurram'. A glimpse of his cameo appearance in 'Yevadu' also received fantastic response from the movie buffs. Well, the all round performance exhibited by Allu Arjun in 'Race Gurram' with his dances, fights, perfect timing in comedy and portrayal of other emotions are just enough for him to be conferred the best actor for 2014 by Nandi Awards Committee.
