Many thought that producer Suresh Babu is actually waiting for the right date to make sure that ‘Venky Mama’ will reap huge benefits from the box office. Though the likes of Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo and Sarileru Neekevvaru have fixed Jan 12th as their date, all these days the producer has eyed Sankranthi date for the Venky and Chay starrer too. But plans changed now.
Reports are now coming that the film will not be targetting Sankranthi season but will release in advance only. We hear that December 25th is locked as the mega date for Venky Mama to hit cinemas. With Balayya’s Ruler, Raviteja’s Disco Raja and Saidharam’s Prathiroju Pandage eyeing Dec 20th, surely 25th is an ideal date without much competition for Venky Mama. The only other film in the race on that said date is Raj Tarun’s Iddari Lokam Okkate.
In fact, Suresh Babu wanted Sankranthi date badly because the film’s production cost is said to have escalated big time and he is eyeing close to 50 crores ‘share’ from the box office. For that to happen, he needs a huge festival season. But how far the Christmas holiday will help Venky Mama do a big feat is something we have to see.
Featuring Venkatesh, Chaitanya, Payal Rajput and Raashi Khanna in the leads, Venky Mama is directed by KS Ravindra of Jai Lava Kusa and Sardar Gabbar Singh fame.
