Super Star Mahesh Babu is getting ready to show his power as an Army Major in his upcoming entertainer Sarileru Neekevvaru. He is romancing Sandalwood seductress Rashmika Mandanna in the film directed by Anil Ravipudi.
Rumors spread that; Mahesh Babu would be getting around whopping Rs 50 crores as remuneration. Analysts arrived at this figure after producer Anil Sunkara agreed to give away the non theatrical rights to Mahesh Babu. But much to the shock of the filmmakers, now they are not getting the non theatrical rights rate as expected.
The Hindi dubbing rights fetched 7crs less than what the makers expected. Similarly, the rights of the other regions are not fetching the amount as expected. So producers will not get much profits from the theatrical rights as expected.
The making cost was expected to be Rs 50crs but the budget increased astronomically as the makers spent a bomb on the sets. As per the agreement, since Mahesh will get the non theatrical rights amount as remuneration, as per the recent market stats, he will not be getting Rs 50 crores as expected earlier.
