BV Reddy - in a pressmeet - told that the Telugu film industry
is headed for a crisis due to bombing of big films which resulted
in a loss of 60 crores to the industry. If you think the crisis
is over with just Johnny, Palanati Brahma Naidu and Nijam,
then are you are mistaken. The movies which are releasing
in the months of August and September hold 100 crores.
The
industry did not have a resounding box office blockbuster
after 'Okkadu' in this year so far. And Telugu film industry
badly needs another hit of 'Okkadu' stature to keep the buyers
and exhibitors in good spirits.
In
the films of high expectations we have Boys, Simhadri, Vasantham,
Seetayya, Kalyana Ramudu, Sambaram, Dhum and Praanam (in that
order).
The
next season is going to be dussera season (September &
October) where we have three biggies, Tagore (Chiranjeevi
- VV Vinayak), Shivamani 90480 22338 (Nagarjuna - Puri Jagannath)
and Naani (Mahesh Babu - SJ Suryah) releasing.
Here
is the approximate budget break up for the top most prioritized
films.
