ADAVI RAMUDU SHARES


Yuvarathna

Recommended Posts

January 18 marks the death anniversary of legendary actor the late Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao. On this occasion, we present a special article on his landmark film Adavi Ramudu.

 

Although, he has several blockbusters to his credit, Adavi Ramudu, released in the year 1977, earned the actor a special place in the record books.

 

The film broke several existing records:

 

    * Ran for 100 days in 32 centres (30 direct + 2 shift).

 

    * Ran for 175 days in 16 centres (both direct and shift).

 

    * Ran for 365 days in 4 centres with shifts (Kurnool, Vizag, Vijayawada and Hyderabad). The record was later broken by the Akkineni Nageswara Rao-Dasari combo Premabhishekam, which had 8 365-day centres (1 direct + 7 shift).

 

    * Became the third film in the history of Telugu Cinema to collect Rs. one crore at the box-office, the first two being Lava-Kusa and Dana Veera Sura Karna.

    * First film to run for 161 days in two theatres in the twin cities (Venkatesa 70mm-176, Ajantha-161). The record has remained unbroken for 29 years.

 

    * Ran for 302 days at Alankar, Vizag, which is still a record for the theatre.
