'Athidhi' completes 50 days in 34 centres

Mahesh's film has completed 50 days in 34 centres all over Andhra Pradesh. It comes as no surprise as it is one of the biggest hits this year.

The presence of Amrita Rao was an added highlight of the film. Though there was criticism of it being similar to 'Pokiri' and having too much violence, Mahesh's charm has rubbed off on his fans.

Also, there was a media blitzkrieg as never before for any of Mahesh's film and of course, there was the tie-up with UTV.

So given these many factors, it had to be a hit after all!
