Nikhil Siddharth is on cloud nine with the humongous success of his recent flick “Karthikeya-2.” The mystic adventure film has grossed 70 crore worldwide in just 10 days. Nikhil Siddharth made a league of his own with a variety of script-oriented flicks. With the success of “Karthikeya-2,” he has now overtaken almost all of Tollywood’s tier-2 actors.
Never in our wildest dreams would we have thought about comparing Nikhil Siddharth’s film to Rebel Star Prabhas’s film. But, miracles do happen. Nikhil is now on the verge of overtaking pan-Indian sensation Prabhas in terms of box office numbers.
Going to the subject, “Karthikeya-2” by Nikhil Siddharth is performing astronomically well in Hindi in addition to Telugu. The film has grossed over 16 crores in the Hindi belt in ten days, with a net share of 8.25 crores. Radhey Shyam, Prabhas’ most recent film, which was widely released across the nation on March 11th, was a box office failure. In the Hindi belt, “Radhey Shyam” grossed almost 20 crores in revenue during its whole theatrical run. However, “Karthikeya-2” by Nikhil Siddharth has already crossed 16 core gross in the Hindi belt in just 10 days, and the movie is still doing extremely well in the circuits. The lifetime Hindi box office totals for “Karthikeya-2” will likely surpass those of “Radhey Shyam” by the end of this week. Nikhil never would have imagined that he would be able to compete with Prabhas in any way, but in the end, it’s the caliber of the content that matters, not the star power. It is obvious that “Radhey Shyam” lacked the content that “Karthikeya-2” possesses.
However, despite these numbers, Prabhas praised Nikhil and “Karthikeya-2” for their enormous success, since Prabhas is Prabhas.
