Synopsis

JK, Nadupakka Nakki and Seenu are roommates, buddies and partners in crime. JK is to get married in a month but still doesn't know if his fiancé Madhu or friend Shakthi is "The One." Seenu can't make up his mind who he wants to kill first - his girlfriend Gayathri who has just dumped him or his stupid, annoying boss whose idea of creativity is sketching a smiling banana. And Nadupakka Nakki is about to discover that eating delicious tandoori chicken off a street vendor is going to give him the worst case of diarrhea he's ever known. Three regular blokes, living the regular life EXCEPT for one small detail - they are on the hit list of one of the world's deadliest crime syndicates. Will they be able to get away before their world comes crashing down?

Per Theater Chart: Moviegoers are put in a Trace

April 9th, 2013

The buzz certainly helped Trance, as it earned first place on the per theater chart with an average of $32,786 in four theaters. This is not quite as good as Danny Boyle's previous two limited releases, but if it doesn't reach at least one major milestone, I would be shocked. Upstream Color rode the best reviews of the week to second place with $28,649 in its lone theater. The Company You Keep was right behind with an average of $26,344 in five theaters. Mixed reviews will likely hold down its potential to expand. The Place Beyond the Pines was the only holdover to reach the $10,000 mark. It expanded to 30 theaters, but still managed an impressive average of $23,446. More...

Seenu can't make up his mind who he wants to kill first - his girlfriend Gayathri who has just dumped him or his stupid, annoying boss whose idea of creativity is sketching a smiling banana. And Nadupakka Nakki is about to discover that eating delicious tandoori chicken off a street vendor is going to give him the worst case of diarrhea he's ever known. Three regular blokes, living the regular life EXCEPT for one small detail - they are on the hit list of one of the world's deadliest crime syndicates. Will they be able to get away before their world comes crashing down?
