He has a solid market of Rs. 30 crore now and for Kavacham they made sure to keep the budget under Rs. 30 crore mark.This has paid off for its makers as they are likely to make six to seven crore profit prior to release.

The budget of Kavacham is around Rs. 28 crore.Going by the business figures of Kavacham, Bellamkondas have decided to keep the budget of Teja’s film under Rs. 30 crore.

With a senior director like Teja at the helm, the film is likely to fetch higher prices if Kavacham turns out to be a commercial success.

Some time ago when someone stated that she has done an item song, Jabardast beauty Anasuya has breathed fire. She asked them to call such songs as ‘special songs’ but not as item songs. Anyway, she has signed one such song again.

Though this hottie poured all sorts of glamour in that Rangammatta character, she wasn’t given a special song in Rangasthalam movie. But now, another mega hero is going to dance with this happening television anchor in a spicy song. Yes, none other than Varun Tej, along with Venkatesh, will dance with Anasuya for their upcoming film F2, Fun and Frustration.

Earlier Anasuya has produced various reasons including that the total lyric is written on her name, as she has sizzled alongside Sai Dharam Tej in an item number in Winner movie. Though she hasn’t accepted all other item songs that came her way, now she is said to have jumped in joy with F2 offer.

End of the day, the anchor wants to prove that she is one stop destination for many talents and looking forward to this item, ..sorry special song!

Taxiwala hasn’t become that blockbuster of sorts in the likes of Geetha Govindam, but it is doing well at the theatres even though it released weeks ago. And then, here comes an expected advantage for this Vijay Devarakonda starrer.

Other than 2 Point O, there are no big Telugu films at the box office right now. And that is spinning huge advantage for the young hero. In the last couple of days, If Rajnikanth is able to get 85%+ occupancy, then Vijay Devarakonda has registered at least 70% occupancy in many theatres.

This is because those who have already seen 2.O and those who are in a mood to catch up Taxiwala are rushing to theatres. Also with no other movie around, definitely footfalls will be automatically redirected to Vijay’s flick. That said, Vijay might not collect 60+ crores share like Geetha Govindam, but still, Taxiwala is a blockbuster of epic proportions for producers.

We hear that they are going to take home twice the amount they have invested in producing this flick.
