Man vs makkhi at the Tollywood Box Office





M inuscule' seems to be 'in' these days. The 'God Particle' has been trending big time on the Internet since news of its possible discovery broke out a couple of days. but it has run into some serious competition! And it's coming from a common housefly — one that's not even real!
Director Rajamouli has hit bull's eye with his latest flick, "Eega", whose hero is not a typical muscle-flexing, larger-than-life Tollywood superstar, but an animated housefly who can act, beat up the baddies, and what's more, dance too! 
In fact, in a tongue-in-cheek sign-off scene at the end of the movie, the computer-generated eega even has a solo dance number, in which he pulls off everything from Chiranjeevi's famous "veena-step" from "Indra" to Allu Arjun's trademark "knee twirlers". 
Within hours of its release, the eega started trending on Twitter worldwide and topped the India trending list too. From celebs to fans to filmmakers, everyone was tweeting about how a housefly did what no other hero could for Tollywood. It's no surprise then that the industry is feeling threatened by this versatile pest-turned-hero. 
Allu Arjun, whose "Julayi" is due for release next week, will be the first one to battle the lil' housefly at the BO. Even Ravi Teja's "Devudu Chesina Manushulu" and Prabhas's "Rebel" that are set for release might have to fight this pesky fly.

Twitterverse goes gaga over eega @ Actor Siddharth: I wonder what film the fly will sign next. Hope he stays grounded! 
@jjake61: I loved #Eega channeling Ravi Teja, Charan and Tarak at the end credits..left me laughing all the way
@mamaNmiyan: So this week, audiences have a choice of either watching 'smashin cars fly', or 'a fly smashing cars'!
