Actor Nandamuri Balakrishna and director Boyapati Sreenu... this is a blockbuster combination in Tollywood.
The duo has given blockbusters like ‘Simha’ and ‘Legend’. Now, they are attempting a hat trick. Generally if this type of combo is arriving in the market, it becomes a hot cake but this time the scene is total reverse.
Reports say the Satellite deal for Boyapati-Balayya project is yet to be locked. Usually the satellite rights for star hero movies get finalized even before the film hits the sets.
For instance, news has arrived that superstar Mahesh Babu’s movie ‘Sarkaruvaari Paata’ Satellite is already closed.
Given that, despite one schedule complete and being a blockbuster combo, Balayya’s movie is yet to find a taker.
Sources say there are 2 reasons. First, it is the price. Since it is a hat trick attempt, the producers are reportedly quoting a high premium.
For now, the digital rights are reportedly closed with an OTT entity. The satellite however is taking time.
