Vijay Devarakonda is providing a live example to show how the graph of a star increases when the stars align properly and hard work gets the right results. The success of Taxiwala makes a strong case for him to become a major force in the coming years.
Before the release, Taxiwala had multiple issues including the major one of the leak. Many had written off the movie long before the release itself. The release period and competition further were seen as a dent to its prospects. On top of all these, Taxiwala was arriving after the disaster NOTA.
Under such impossible circumstances, Taxiwala has strengthened the position of Vijay Devarakonda as a star. The opening is not massive but is enough with huge patronage in A centres to suggest that Devarakonda has indeed made a mark as a star. In the US, Taxiwala is a breakeven venture in a single day.
The success of Taxiwala makes 2018 a memorable year for Vijay Deverakonda. He had five releases including a much-delayed project. Leaving that aside, the actor had three successful films (Mahanati included) out of four. That’s a fantastic achievement. Now, all eyes are on him to see where he goes next from this point in the coming year.
