Tollywood for long has been saying that Super Star Mahesh Babu's dealings of his films are looked after by his wife, former Miss India Namrata Shirodkar. Though it is an open secret, there is nothing to prove it.
Now inside talk is though Mahesh is no way associated with the production of his upcoming entertainer Maharshi, Namrata entered the scene and ensured that it got good deals as per the brand value of her superstar husband.
Sources say Namrata was influential in Maharshi satellite rights going to Gemini TV for around 14 crs. Buzz is the deal was inked with the help of Dil Raju even before Potluri Vara Prasad and Ashwini Dutt became aware of it. 14crs is a good deal and now inside talk is she asked filmmakers to contact her directly for the film's digital and Hindi dubbing rights.
Producers Ashwini Dutt and PVP Prasad are silent since it is bringing them huge profits. Seems the ultimate aim is to get Maharshi a business upto around 150crs.
