Nageshwar - "I am a great fan of Rajinikanth.I have so far watched CHANDRAMUKHI 21 times.Well Thailavars movie was released in a theatre called JAGADAMBA which has a seating capacity 0f 900.well this theatre was considered a bad luck theatre.This theatre doesn't had a hit movie for the past 4 years.All the big budget movies of Chiranjeevi, Venkatesh, PawanKalyan, Maheshbabu and  NTR became great duds in this theatre. Well the people vizag or visakhapatnam considered CM as another flop.But I being a Rajini Fan I said to my friends said that CM is going to change the fate of this theatre.Hence it happened that TAHILAVARS movie CM becoming the first hit movie in the theatre JAGADAMBA after a period of 4 years.The movie CM is registering great collections in this theatre Jagadamba having 42 days gross of more than 35 lakhs.Except the morning show all the shows all getting housefull. As I enquired about the movie how the fellow audience are feeling,To my suprise 50% of the people said that it is 3rd or 4rth time they watching it. The Theatre expressed his happiness hearing the hit talk and seeing the collections of the movie through all local cable channels.ALL Vizag people are THANKING our THAILAVAR for giving the cool breeze of CHANDRAMUKHI in this blazing hot summer."

Gopal - "On 13th Apr  2005, when I saw that its going to be released in 17 theaters here, I've gone mad and could not decide on where to watch the movie. Me and my friends decided to watch it in Erragadda Gokul theatre (which is nearest to us) and went to book the tickets. Unfortunately we could not get the tickets for morning show. So we have opted for the evening show tickets.

Next day when I woke up and went to office, I thought I could not wait until evening. So I went to the theatre during morning show. The counter was not open at that time. A crowd of telugu fans started gathering outside the gate. At one point (even before interval was not over for the morning show) they started knocking and literally breaking the gate.

After the interval was over for the morning show, They opened the counter. A big queue was there (here I would say the city fans maintained the queue and everyone was patiently waiting. No one crushed anyone. But its all for just 15 minutes until all the tickets were sold out. Then the crowd went mad and started yelling and scolding. There was a mixup in Ladies counter and Gents went and grabbed some tickets from there too.

I spoke to some of the fans who got the ticket for noon show. They said they are eagerly waiting to see the show and this time they are expecting very much from Thalaivar.

Then I have waited there until the morning show was over. I spoke to the fans coming out of the movie. They all said its a different movie and good. Some fans said they will watch the movie every weekend until 100 days. (usually it happens here only for renowned telugu stars). Public people are very much appreciating the film.

I have gone to the evening show and watched the movie. Movie was simply nice. I liked thalaivar's intro scene. Wow! Even today he is as young as Rajadhiraja. The visil sound was so much that I could not clearly hear the dialogs. Especially visil was high during thalivar intro, Dhevuda and Annanoda.. songs and fights.

I went again to see CM yesterday. This time the crowd was bit higher than on 14th April 2005, I could see lot of tamil fans too this time. The black ticket was sold at Rs150 for the first day and Rs120 for today.

I'm sure it will be a big hit here like Peddarayudu(Naataamai) or Narasimha (Padayappa)"
