Prabhas’ Salaar: Unexpected TRP shocks one and all
Published on May 3, 2024 5:00 pm IST
With Salaar, PAN India star Prabhas returned to form. The action drama directed by Prashanth Neel is the highest-grosser of Tollywood for 2023. While audiences expected a full-blown action flick, the drama element came as a pleasant surprise, enhancing the impact of the action sequences. Salaar recently had its world television premiere on Star Maa.
The promotions for the television premiere were also well done, but this biggie’s TRP is shocking, to say the least. While fans anticipated a record-breaking response, Salaar managed to fetch a TRP of 6.52, which is way below expectations. A few opine that IPL matches are also the reason behind the below-par response.
If we observe the latest trend, films that didn’t fare well in theatres, like Aadikeshava, are gaining solid TRPs. But mega-hits like Waltair Veerayya and Salaar received unexpected responses on the small screens. Shruti Haasan and Prithviraj Sukumaran played vital roles.
