Kanthaswamy sets record in Kerala
After Anniyan, Tamil super star Vikram has once again repeated the magic of enthusiastic box-office response from his huge fan base in Kerala to his latest flick Kanthaswamy (Mallanna in Telugu), earning Rs. 37 crore at the box office in its opening week.
"It’s a record. Kanthaswamy has earned Rs. 37 crore at the box office in its opening week. The move is a huge hit. This is my Onam gift to the people in Kerala," actor Vikram said on Monday during his visit in Kochi. The actor was in town to promote his movie and to wish all Keralites a happy Onam.
Stating that he had spent nearly two and a half years in the making of Kanthaswamy, directed by Susi Ganeshan and produced by Kalaipuli S. Dhanu with a whopping budget of 70 crores, Vikram said that he had faced a lot of physical stress while shooting for the film. "For example, the first fight in the movie was shot in 45 days. The stress was there. Kanthaswamy was shot in different locations," he said.
Vikram’s musical numbers including ‘Excuse Me, Mr. Kanthaswamy’ have topped the music charts in Kerala and Tamil Nadu and the actor terms his singing assignment as a ‘challenging role’. "I had sung the numbers in different levels. My music director Devi Sri Prasad was very impressed by my voice," he said.
