Having released at around the same time as Mahesh Babu’s Brahmotsavam, Bichagadu didn’t really have a chance whatsoever. However, the failure of the Mahesh Babu-starrer and the lack of any other interesting new film proved to be the lucky charm for this Tamil film dubbed into Telugu.
Interestingly, Chadalavadu Tirupathi Rao bought the dubbing rights of the film for a meagre Rs 40 lakh has managed to rake in a phenomenal Rs 13 crore at the box-office now! Bichagadu (Pichaikaran in Tamil) stars Vijay Antony and Satna Titus in the lead roles.
The film is proving to be a huge benefit for the distributors and has given Vijay Antony a market in Telugu.
