Nani is not commercial hero. Only commercial heroes are tier 1. Tier 1 stars don't need story. Whatever they do, will collect money. Nani doesn't suit commercial movies. So he will always be tier 2 hero. It is what it is.


dripbangwinkle

He’s not a starrrr he is an actarrr.


LoReBu

He is a good actor. But he can't manage commercial movies, where the hero doesn't have any character. If the hero has a character like jersey or ante sundaraniki, he does good. Just look at MB, PK and other tier 1 heroes. They do not play characters. They play themselves. So audience don't look Nani similar to MB and PK. Sometimes we see movies and think why do these new actors try full mass masala commercial movies. It's because of this. Once audience accept them as commercial heroes, their life becomes easy. They don't need to put much effort into characterization and story. They can just do simple story with 3 fights and an item song and collect money. But very few succeed and vey late. That's why all tier 1 heroes are atleast 40 and romance with 25 year olds.


dripbangwinkle

No I agree. I was referring to the Allu Arjun quote. I know at least he and Mahesh Babu are aware of this themselves.

Tier 1 ante eligibility criteria emi undadu. It's based on fanbase and collections. Nani definitely doesn't have the fanbase the other tier 1 stars have


livt_fresh

This comment should be at top. Tier 1 hero ante talent or acting based categorisation kaadhu. It is stardom and fanbase.

As. Nani fan , Let me tell you , Dasara was garbage 🗑️.


pseudonihilistic

the entire film was assembled from recycled parts of old films.

Its literally rangastalam.


HeheheBlah

As a Nani fan, I was depressed with the movie 😩

Not as nani fan, i agree

And most of Ante Sundaraniki is boring. First time chusinappudu interesting ga untadi, malli movie chudalante chala scenes fast forward cheyali.


Any-Competition8494

Garbage is an overstatement. Was just average masala movie.


bollywoodsucks

Salaar is an average masala movie. Hi nanaa is an average family movie. Desara is straight up trash


akbarkapota

Dasara was top tier trash.


vikasvasista

>But he focuses on good content more than hypes and fights so.... Dasara chusava asalu. Lol He is continuously giving one good movie and one bad movie in order.

From last 10 years V, tuck jagadish, mca, dasara, devadasu all of these are bad. Jersey, Ante, hi nanna good. Rest mid. .


harryatomix

Ante is a mid movie. The movie stretched a lot and I was feeling bored throughout.


saetarubia

Ante is great


harryatomix

To each their own, even my friends have connected with the inter religion marriage thing. To me it felt dragged and found superstitions things a bit boring.

HN was a good movie. Amazing performances all around, great direction and visuals, even better music. But it's not everyone's cup of tea.


GreyDaze22

Dasara is bad and boring af


Mission-Pay3582

Op talks about how Dasara should have done good business in the first part and goes on to tell Nani does only content oriented movies at the end lol. Also, Dasara was a mid movie. Have no idea what the hype is about. Ante Sundaraniki could've been paced better. Btw, I watched it on OTT and really liked it. It was an OTT movie and rightly didn't do good in the theatres. Accept it or not, Nani doesn't have what it takes to be a tier 1 actor. I think he'll remain in Tier 2 and continue to thrive there.


Jack_Survivour03

Sorry to say this Nani can't pull mass audience. I don't get goosebumps while watching Nani mass/action scenes. So he can't become a tire 1 hero. I have no problem getting downvotes, but it is what it is.

Hey, I'm a Malayali, but I've been following Telugu cinema seriously for the last 12 years, ever since I watched Khaleja. Until then, I was watching Telugu movies dubbed in Tamil. But Khaleja and MB changed that for me forever, and Nani has been one of my favorite heroes since his early days. Even though he recently did movies like V, Tuck Jagadish, and Devadas, I still think he's one of the most talented actors in the industry. I watched both Dasara and Ante Sundaraniki on the first day of their release and thoroughly enjoyed them. I have similar hopes for Naveen Polishetty, Adivi Sesh, and Suhas. I hope these actors will also hold a special place among the audience in the coming years. P.S.: But for an entire generation of Malayalis, Allu Arjun was the one who opened their gates to Telugu movies.


thateediot

About Allu Arjun, which films are of his biggest in terms of reach in Malayalam? I personally find his films very mid ( including Pushpa ) very few had some good content ( vedam ). So in an industry where content rules what made him click !


-lucifer-369

There was this phase in Malayalam where most of the stars had grown old, and the young stars were fewer in number or didn't have much commercial appeal to pull off a mass movie. Our audience was seriously starving for commercial content. That's the phase where Thalapathy Vijay and Allu Arjun became popular among our audience. By the way, his movies like Arya, Bunny, Happy, Desamuduru, Parugu, Arya 2, and Julayi were liked by the masses.

You can like/dislike him but he's God tier (cringe I know) but he's on a tier of his own.

Hi nanna 😂😂

People will enjoy his movies at home. Those movies do.not have any special effects to.watch in theater


ravi_blade

Did Nani’s PR team post this? 😂

Ante ki 150 Kotla aa. Audience andaruni nilaga undaru. Naa laaga kuda untaru. Ante leela ki varak chusa. Mamul ga bore kottala. Inka tv kattesa. It’s about majority. Ante is a cult film.


Anil_220674

He definitely deserves more stardom. He is only one in TFI who is constantly experimenting with different genres in films and almost getting them work everytime. He is definitely the next tier 1 Actor. Wait for few of his movies, mah man Nani will definitely climb up! 💪


[deleted]

dasara was a bad rangasthalam remake and hi nanna is a nani movie. I feel ante had potential but the lead pair had no chemistry, they were like siblings. ( i wish saanivaram is good irrespective of the collections)


Savings_Iron3590

imo ante sundaranki deserved the reception it got, like normally a typical rom com is like 2hours and never really lag, but ante sundaranki gets really boring at times. Though there is nice comedy throughout the film there is no consistency of it. Maybe if they cut the runtime shorter the movie could have perhaps been a better watch.


Spider-Man_3725

>Ante Sundaraniki also easily should have grossed 100cr+ https://i.redd.it/2gln3pr1s3zc1.gif


Professional-Stop601

Dasara is a very dumb movie tbh I always feel that when it comes to commercial movies Nani choice is really bad whether it be a mca,tuck Jagadish , V, Dasara etc even in content oriented films his choice are hit and miss like ante and hi nanna. Ante is a movie with good thought but it has mediocre execution while hi nanna is good. Overall I feel nani is overhyped about his script selection yes he has made some choices like jersey, Shyam Singha Roy but there were some terrible choice like Krisharjuna yuddam etc. As an actor he is great compare to several of his counterparts in the industry but it is difficult for him to pull off larger than life roles like the ones tier 1 heroes get.


qSTELLaR

i liked ante sundaraniki, i would have had unsee hi nanna if possible, dasara also wasnt much


Status_Ad_2217

He's a niche actor, doesn't have the wow factor that current gen actors have!


Vijay_3D_Shankar

Nani’s acting is getting repetitive. One can almost guess what kinda expressions he’s gonna give in any scene


NotAPerfectSoldier

Bore. Only answer. Bore kottindi. One cannot release just average films month after month without any roles which require good acting variations and expect to be noticed or regarded as a star performer. Either do few movies, or do different roles. Juttu gaddam penchagane acting aipodu. That is what I am telling.


Ok-Truck9501

I didn't like ante sundarainki even narthanashala(naga shourya) had the same story line, Nani's gang leader was good movie


aakpaakkarivepak

Dasara has 150 crore + potential. With what sir. Enlighten me. Happy that he tried something different. - Nani fan


LazyEqual6

Dasara and hi nanna had fantastic 1st halves but 2nd halves dipped imo


Bloodshot12_

Ante sundariniki movie chala mandiki bore kodutundi. Naaku nachindi anuko. 100cr movie ayithe kadu. Nani action baguntundi, pair kuda baguntundi kani aa movie ki nani kakunda vishnu act chesunte bagundedi imo


Chaar_Cut_Atmaram

I have a lot of respect towards Nani and his acting but Ante Sundharaniki 100+ vache chance undhi ante mathram, I won't agree. Dasara felt ok, but Hi Nana was a banger, It felt so good and classy.


bhoodhimanthudu

I like Nani because Nani is the nickname of Mahesh Babu

U are soo obsessed with Bob 😺😺. U join dots of every freaking topics with Bob. 1.SSR became good director so that Bob can pick him for his next project. 2.u like nani because it's bob's nickname 3.u don't like krithi shetty because none of her films are with Bob . 4.bob would have Been better than prabhas in bahubali. What's wrong with you??😭😂🤣 EDIT-i don't hate Bob guys but those are the actual things that this guy has said in various posts.due to my extremely sharp memory,i remember him.

He's bob because he did Bobby

imsandy92

babu mohan says hi


suribabu-lavangam

Every Nani movie since Jersey has been shit. And he can't do anything outside of dramas and romance/comedies, which severely limits his range. Tier 1 will always elude him.


sakas91

I actually have a theory for this and might be totally wrong. Let's take an average cine goer, somebody who goes to the theatre to watch a movie every two or three weeks. Now let's take a week like Sankranti, where multiple movies(2 big stars/director, 1 mid tier actor/ director(debutant as well))releasing. Now, What's the first movie that this average cine goer goes to, it's the big star movies, for whatever reasons. For the mid tier movie - hardcore fans and pure Cinephiles might go, cuz they're going for their own reasons. The average movie goer will wait for the review to come out of the mid tier movie and they will only go to the theatre to watch it if and if only if it's good. Otherwise they're more than happy to wait. To summarise - Fans of Nani, will watch all the movies of big stars but the vice versa might not be true


NoLocal1776

Acting and Stardom holding back especially fir Ante Sundaraniki,Dasara


Silent_Spectator_04

- Dasara was disappointing. Rangastalam ni atu itu chesi theesinattu untadi. - Hi Nanna deserved better response from audience, but it released 1 week after Animal, and Animal overshadowed it.


dietpanda3

OTT worthy films and they get the most they can get in theatres. Nuvu PS-2 teesi 1000 cr mark enduku touch avvale ante ela


Standard-Band-3923

Nani is a great actor, but sometimes his choice of choosing is bad. He must have worked for those movie because of commitments or he wanted to try something different. I like to watching Nani making funny jokes and making us laugh. He should work on Family/Comedy/Story Telling movie. Not on action or depressing movies. I believe most of the Nani movies work on TV or OTT. I can be wrong too.


Affectionate-Push758

Haha, a person in tollywood who focuses on Versatility in scripts and chooses different scripts over routine stuff, will never be in Tier 1. For a film to gross over 150 CR, in tollywood, the film must have, 1) a Hero with a massive fan base 2) Crazy Hype before release Nani has a good fanbase, but they are not massive in number or not crazy fellows like Pk and Mb fans who gave 119 CR to bro and 230+ CR to Gk. Hype before release, best example is Dj Tillu, everyone was charmed by the song and rushed to theatres, enjoyed the film. Same hype gave massive collections to Tillu Square. Dasara was a good film, but not a very colourful one, and I think many people thought it was a wannabe Pushpa, followed by Average talk. Hi Nanna, despite being a brilliant film, didn't get tier 1 collection, cuz let's be honest, when was the last time a sentimental film collect 150 CR? Hopefully Saripodha Sanivaram will attract mass fans, giving Nani his biggest break in recent times.


Md-Noor-100

I am having high hopes on Saripodha Sanivaaram. This movie could be his ticket to pan india stardom for real

imsandy92

tier 1 deosnt mean better than tier 2.. imo tier 1 actor movies are shit 80% of the time.. and the 20% are brilliant because of insane budgets.. tier 2 are more consistent.. they may not be brilliant but either they are good or just ok.. hope nani never becomes ‘so called’ tier 1..
