Tough times for Mahesh Babu Ram Charan Allu Arjun
Tollywood witnessed massive hits along with huge disasters over the past couple of years. Right from Brahmotsavam to Agnyaathavaasi, many big budget films left the buyers in hefty losses. Right after the release of Agnyaathavaasi, the buyers are said to have been showing interest in the upcoming big budget films Bharat ane Nenu, Rangasthalam 1985 and Na Peru Surya. Keeping their box-office stamina of Mahesh, Charan and Bunny aside, the buyers have been showing no interest to acquire these films for the prices quoted by the makers.
The makers have been in plans to close the business at the earliest and end up in table profits however the situations have been completely different for Bharat ane Nenu, Rangasthalam 1985 and Na Peru Surya. There have been wide speculations that all the three films underwent re-shoots. Sukumar’s recent outings have done well across the multiplexes and his next outing Rangasthalam 1985 has been delayed by months. The makers feel that Rangasthalam 1985 will not appeal to all the sections even if it ends up as a classic.
Allu Arjun’s Na Peru Surya has been carrying enough buzz but the film is directed by a debutant Vakkantham Vamsi which makes Na Peru Surya a risky project. Superstar Mahesh Babu has been struggling with back to back debacles and the film too underwent re-shoots. All the buyers of these films have deferred with the makers for the quoted prices and so the theatrical business of Bharat ane Nenu, Rangasthalam 1985 and Na Peru Surya is yet to be closed. We have to wait to see the result and the fate of these films which have been announced for summer release.
