Super Star Mahesh Babu's milestone 25th film Maharshi is attracting all with his message on farmers to the society and the makers are promoting the film like never seen before manner. They are branding the film as an 'Epic Blockbuster' and claimed that Maharshi created new records to become the biggest hit in Mahesh Babu's career.
But inside talk is expect in Nizam region where Dil Raju released the film on his own, the collections are not as expected. The film has a long way to go to reach the breakeven.
Till now, in none of the areas, Maharshi reached the breakeven. Though hopes increased with the second week's performance, Maharshi still has to travel a long distance. In US and Ceded areas, Maharshi recovered only half of the investment. Only if it performs strongly in coming days, buyers can recover their investment or else they will incur heavy losses.
Trend shows that buyers may suffer losses ranging to 5-6 crs. It is not easy to bear the losses when they invested in huge amounts expecting profits. If the film turns out to be a disaster, buyers will get alert even before the final run. They run to the producers and pressurize them for compensation.
However Maharshi team is busy with success meets claiming that the film is a blockbuster. Producers too got good profits and Mahesh too might have got around Rs 25crs as his salary. Director along with the other artists and technicians are also happy. However buyers are sinking and they are furious with the Maharshi team celebrating success meets when they are drowning in losses.
