Two huge releases, Hrithik Roshan’s Krrish 3 and Tamil superstar Ajith’s Arrambam are all set for a huge battle at the South Indian box office.
Hrithik has a huge fan-following in the south, almost all his films have opened well in Tamilnadu, Karnataka, Kerala and Andhra Pradesh. But this time around, Arrambam is likely to affect the business of Krrish 3 in the south, especially in Tamilnadu.

Krrish 3 – Arrambam
The advance booking of both films kick-started on Saturday and the response has been phenomenal for both. In major cities, Krrish 3 tickets are selling like hot cakes. A few morning shows are ‘housefull’ in advance or filling up quickly. A few multiplexes are screening as many as 30 shows per day, with one show every 20-25 minutes!
Tickets of Arrambam too are in high demand. There are reports that several exhibitors are increasing the screens and shows of the film in Tamilnadu by reducing the shows of Krrish 3 and older releases.
In Karnataka, all shows of Arrambam on November 1st have been cancelled as the state celebrates ‘Rajyothsava’.
The South Indian territories will be important for Krrish 3, if it has to have any chance of break the opening day record of Chennai Express or crossing the 30 crore mark. What would make it even tougher is the fact that Friday is a working day.
A question to all our readers from the south Indian states. What’s your pick – Krrish 3 or Arrambam? Tell us! Do mention your state or city too.
krrish 3 Any day..!!
Tamil movies willn’t be that preferable in kerala karnataka and AP.
The romance priview of krish3,
01 krish3 1st day need 28 to 30cr to become hit if it col 30cr plus then k3 will be bigger hit.
02 krish3 1st day need 25 to 28cr to become average grosser or to recover its invesment.
03 krish 3 1st day need less than 25cr to become diwali diastar.
LET SEE WHAT HAPPEN, IF K3 GOT NEGETIVE WOM THEN IT WILL WRAP UP UNDER 85CR.
Verdict: All time diwali diastar
Plus,KMG AND KRRISH were very much liked in south parts.so they are eagerly waiting for k3.
Of course Krrish-3..If krrish-3 have a good story,vfx,action then dis movie gonna sure shot blockbuster..Nothing to say
Arrambam is a must-watch.
Krrish 3 will be watched only if reviews are good.
(I am from Pathanamthitta, Kerala)
Am frm chennai.. i will go for krrish 3 anyday.
Even if this south movie does affect KRRISH 3 then that is about 5-10 crore of business I guess or at max 20 cr.So that is not really a big deal to a movie like KRRISH 3.For gods sake it is one of the most awaited movies of this year along with DHOOM 3.My personal prediction for KRRISH 3 would be with good word of mouth 200-225 cr,average 135-170 cr, bad 70-120 cr.
In karnataka the film will not release , becoz nov 1st is kannada rajaya sabha , as only kannada films have to run one week, no other films r going to release !!
Krrish3
Industry reports of KRRISH 3 extraordinary. Two-three trial shows held,people going berserk.Advance bkg. in Delhi, other places OUTSTANDING- Komal Nahta
I m frm karnataka, all my frnds r eagerly waiting for k3!
Arrambam will make it easier. Almost 300 shows housefull for arrambam for the 1st day alone. I am from chennai

Verdict: All time diwali diastar
Havent seen Arrambam but O am sure it will be 1000 times better than Krrish 3.
Cartoony villains and rubbish songs in Krrish 3 will sink it
Krrish 3 belongs to cartoon network not theater
k3 is disaster bhai jaan rocks
the poster of k3 is so funny
highly anticipated for krrish 3!
I’ll go for Krrish 3 as i’m a big fan of hrithik.
But for others Arambham would definetly the first choice as we know after the come back movie Magatha , Ajith is in most than ever. He is also called the next superstar of south after Rajnikanth.
But we can’t judge the future anything can happen as Ajith’s last movie Billa 2 was not accepted by Malayali audience . So figure crossed for both movie.

Krrish 3 might face competition from hollywood superhero flick Thor:the dark world.
ajith is only second to rajini when it comes to openings in south.
Still 30 c. Firstday is very much possible
@indicine team
