Trivia
DVS Karna was the first Telugu film to collect more than Rs.1 Crores in those days with second and third release.
In the first twenty years after its release, DVS Karna sold the highest number of tickets beating all the new releases for the year in 13 years. Lava Kusa is the only other movie with re-run value beyond three releases.
Given the arrival of DVDs etc., it is unlikely that any movie ever made will sell as many tickets as DVS Karna sold over 150 million tickets (currently higher than the next highest ticket selling 19 movies put together!).

Famous quotes containing the word trivia:
“Pop artists deal with the lowly trivia of possessions and equipment that the present generation is lugging along with it on its safari into the future.”
—J.G. (James Graham)
“The most refined skills of color printing, the intricate techniques of wide-angle photography, provide us pictures of trivia bigger and more real than life. We forget that we see trivia and notice only that the reproduction is so good. Man fulfils his dream and by photographic magic produces a precise image of the Grand Canyon. The result is not that he adores nature or beauty the more. Instead he adores his camera—and himself.”
—Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
