Sanghamitra, the magnum opus initiated by Kollywood to outpar Baahubali is facing setbacks from day one. The biggest obstacle of dropping heroine Shruti Hasan from title role led to huge delay as director C Sundar could not find a replacement.
Yesterday, C Sundar and his wife Khushboo officially announced that Disha Patani Is all set to play the lead role in the so calles big budgeted periodic drama.
Kollywood sources are mincing the words on how far the budget of Rs. 200 crores is viable on a non star and yet to be proven artist like Disha Patani whose only Telugu film Loafer and couple of Hindi movies also sunk without a trace.
Even today Shruti can be the only choice to make Sanghamitra work in South because Hindi version can only help for a wider publicity but in Box Office terms, wonders like Baahubali are rare to happen. While Disha is all lucky to join the project, how far are the producers?
