The Koratala Siva directed movie has reportedly emerged as the third biggest hit in Tollywood after it crossed Attariniki Daredi’s worldwide share with its Telugu collections alone. The reports also suggest that Janatha Garage is right behind Magadheera when dubbed versions are accounted for. Excepting Baahubali’s numbers, Janatha Garage has broken many records in Guntur area overtaking Siva own direction Srimanthudu.
