Fans usually support their favorite stars even after flops, but this week, fans of Ram and Ravi Teja are openly expressing frustration on social media over their stars' poor choices with Double iSmart and Mr Bachchan, respectively.
Both actors have been struggling with consecutive flops. Ravi Teja has been unable to replicate the success of Krack and Dhamaka, despite reportedly raising his fees, which now stand at Rs 25 crore per film.
This increase has raised concerns about whether producers can recoup their investment, especially with the non-theatrical market also declining.
Ram is facing similar criticism for focusing on mass roles rather than the entertaining love stories that once brought him hits like Nenu Shailaja.
The latest disappointment, Ravi Teja’s remake of Raid titled Mr Bachchan, has only intensified fan dissatisfaction.
As the market value of their films declines and OTT rights diminish, both actors are under increasing pressure to deliver a hit urgently.
Without a significant success soon, they may struggle to secure new projects, leaving their fans even more disheartened.
