Gange Baare... picks up momentum

Producers Bhojaraj Pai and Rama Murthy said that they are hugely relieved that their film Gange Baare Thunge Baare directed by Sadhu Kokila is getting very good collections now, as compared to the poor initial in the beginning. "The second week collections have indicated that the film is bound to recover costs for us and we will not be surprised if we make decent profits from the film," declared Bhojaraj Rai.

Denying all the negative talk in the trade about their film, both Rama Murthy and Bhojaraj Rai maintained that the collections in all the centres are increasing despite facing stiff competition from the ongoing IPL matches and the elections.

Director Sadhu Kokila also said that the film's collections got a face lift from May 10, the date of the Ist phase of elections in the state. "I am more than happy when the film's distributor Jayanna told me that the producers would recover the cost from the fourth week itself," said Sadhu Kokila.
