This cut-off mark is neither for budgets, nor for production time. Currently these three directors are making their trademark felt on Tollywood by their big ticket films and also their hefty remuneration.
Much before “Baahubali” released, it’s publicized that Rajamouli is demanding a pay check of 15 crores for his film. With Baahubali, he might have got more than that figure, some say twice that of 15 crore mark. Coming to VV Vinayak, reports have that he pocketed nearly 15 crores for “Alludu Seenu” and is repeating the same for “Akhil”.
As his films generally don’t fail at box office, for their commercial masala content, producers are not worried to pay him such a huge figure. Same is the case with Koratala Siva, who is just two films old. As his Mirchi and Srimanthudu are box office hits, he is said to clocking that mighty figure for Nannaku Prematho. Industry observers say, for super-star directors, 15 crore is the cut-off mark for remuneration.
With big heroes and directors charging nearly 15 crores, just the remuneration budgets itself are touching 35 crores per film. Guess why each film is requiring nearly 50-60 crores budget to get carved.
