After Baahubali, RRR and KGF ended up as super hits, all the South actors are keen to release their films in the neighboring languages. When it comes to Telugu, actors like Chiranjeevi, Venkatesh, Balakrishna, Pawan Kalyan, Ravi Teja, Nani, Nikhil, Akhil, Bellamkonda Sreenivas and others announced their recent releases as pan-Indian films. However, most of the films did not get a theatrical release in neighboring languages and the release was restricted to film posters.
Nikhil’s Karthikeya 2 is the only successful pan-Indian hit from Telugu. The buyers of Nani’s Dasara too lost a hefty amount. Ravi Teja’s recent one Tiger Nageswara Rao too is a disaster in North and other South Indian languages. The films of all the stars are dubbed into South and Hindi languages as the digital players are acquiring the rights including all the languages. If there are buyers, these films are getting a theatrical release. Otherwise, the audience have to watch it on OTT platforms after the digital release.
