On its opening day, Gopichand’s latest release, the fantasy action film “Bhimaa,” marked a significant comeback for the macho star. Directed and written by A. Harsha, “Bhimaa” hit theaters worldwide on March 8 with moderate expectations. Featuring Priya Bhavani Shankar and Malvika Sharma as the female leads, the film has garnered positive feedback from both critics and fans.
Gopichand’s portrayal of a sincere yet quirky cop in “Bhimaa” has captivated audiences, with his impeccable acting, demeanor, and screen presence earning praise. Set in a small town, the film revolves around mysterious occurrences at a historical temple, prompting the intervention of a determined police officer.
In the midst of his investigation, Bhimaa, the protagonist, finds himself entangled in a complex web of relationships and conflicts. His encounters with powerful figures like Bhavani (Mukesh Tiwari) and his blossoming romance with Vidya (Malvika Sharma) add layers to the narrative.
Despite facing hurdles, including online piracy post-release, “Bhimaa” has managed to strike a chord with audiences. Gopichand’s much-awaited success at the box office reflects a turning point in his career, following the commercial disappointment of his previous film, “Rambanam.”
The film’s strong opening day performance speaks volumes about its potential, with “Bhimaa” raking in an impressive Rs 11 Crore from across India on its release day. With positive word-of-mouth spreading, “Bhimaa” looks set to continue its successful run at the box office.
