Superstar Mahesh Babu has been way ahead in the number one race with two big hits in a row. He has three films among the top five all time hits in Tollywood history. Although he doesn't have the number one hit in his name, Mahesh has gained serious pace with Dookudu and Businessman movies. Now it is the time for other close competitors to prove their mettle.

All the three close competitors of Mahesh Babu are coming up with their latest releases this summer. Pawan Kalyan's Gabbar Singh, Junior NTR's Dammu and Ram Charan's Racha are slated for release in summer with a considerable gap between them. All the three movies are riding high on expectations and their fans are expecting these films to be huge hits and thus proving that they are as good as Mahesh when they deliver the goods.

Fans are not expecting them to break the record of Magadheera, but a forty to fifty crore blockbuster will do. Because by doing so they will prove a point that with the changed market strategies and statistics, every superstar can recreate the magic of Dookudu at the box office. So that will keep the 'number one kaun!' debate open and intact. Interesting scenario indeed!
