List of profitable Telugu Movies released in 2012

From the pool of around 100 straight Telugu movies released in 2012, the below three tables shows the three categories of movies brought profits to the makers (I have  prepared this list by analyzing and collecting information from various sources and through personal observation of the actual business happened in the industry)....

So lets have a look at these 30 movies (out of around 100, i.e., 30% of total) those turned successful in bringing profits not only to the producers of the respective movies but also to the numerous stake holders including all the members of the industry, those who are directly or indirectly depending on "a Good Movie".

Note: I have sorted these movies in a sequential order (w.r.t. their release dates) and this effort of mine is not just a simple analysis but might help few small and fresh movie makers who wanted to understand and analyze the industry trends and various factors (including the actual content of the movie, the image of main cast and crew, the promotional activities, timing of release, and finally the team work) that turn a movie into a Hit or Fut...

Overall 2012, was a delightful year for the telugu film industry (Tollywood) for tasting 30% profit ratio....which was a rare feat!
