The craze for Bheemla Nayak has been such that the results began showing in the movie's box office collection even before it released. As per our trade sources, Bheemla Nayak had already minted a cool $507,ooo from advanced booking sales overseas, with $407,ooo coming from the US alone and a further $100,00 being contributed from Australia. That amount to about ₹3.82 crore gross before the Pawan Kalyan and Rana Daggubati starrer hit cinema halls across the world.
That being said, Rana Daggubati fans are said to be a tad disappointed as they feel it's an out-an-out Powerstar vehicle, with Pawan Kalyan completely overshadowing Rana Daggubati as opposed to the original Malayalam movie, Ayyappanum Koshiyum, where both Prithviraj Sukumaran and Biju Menon were dealt equal hands. However, that's only the tip of the iceberg as the real ire is being spewed by Malayalam fans of Ayyappanum Koshiyum, and of Prithviraj and writer-Director Sachy in particular.
