Even as the audio launch of Allu Arjun-starrer Duvvada Jagannadham is only a day away, the makers seem to have not distributed the fan passes yet. This is now said to be creating a havoc among Bunny’s fans.

There said to be no clue over when they would be distributed as well. Apparently, producer Dil Raju said to be not paying much attention and this is the reason for fans venting out their anger on Twitter and other social media platforms. It’s also buzzed that the management of Shilpa Kala Vedika and cops have made it mandatory on having bar codes on the passes in order to avoid the duplicating. This has been practice for Pawan’s Katamarayudu and many other such events held at the same venue and it’s not something new for DJ. Yet, the makers said to have not very pro-active causing in severe stress for fans who are willing to come from districts of AP, Karanataka and a few even from Kerala.

Adding more confusion, the latest talk is that the production house has ordered for relatively less fan passes compared to fan passes of other heroes who generally have.

Will producer Dil Raju step in to wipe out the woes of Bunny’s fans?

Bollywood film Raabta, Magadheera’s freemake… err.. not anymore a freemake as just one day before the release, the Bollywood filmmakers had an out of the court settlement with Allu Aravind, has received enough publicity by entangling in a plagiarism controversy with Geetha Arts.

Free of plagiarism allegations, the Sushant Singh Rajput and Krit Sanon starrer finally hit screens today, and unfortunately, it may head in complete opposite direction to Magadheera’s. While the Telugu film was an industry ht, Raabta may turn out to be one of the biggest disasters of this year, going by the terrible word of mouth.

Raabta has received scathing reviews from all major Bollywood critics. The word of mouth on social media also is not encouraging. Despite the film charmed with its reincarnation theme and good-looking leads, the incoherent screenplay, utterly rubbish dialogues and confused story line have reportedly tested the patience of viewers.

To summarize the reviews, everything is a drawback in Raabta except the crackling chemistry shared by Sushant and Kriti, who are rumored to be in a real relationship.

Have a look at the flop films at Telugu box office in the recent times and immediately you can figure out one thing. It’s the remunerations that is bending the back of producer but not the actual production cost.

In a film that’s made with 50+ crores budget, often 25 crores is catering to remunerations only. Even a two-crore budgeted small film is catering around 50-70 lakhs to remunerations as they have to pick some talented character artists. This is no wrong, but actually, with remunerations becoming huge chunk, any slight loss is making producers not being able to make another film soon. Otherwise, if films are made at half the budgets what are being put now, producers could sell them easily, get profits and share to key actors. That way they could make more films too.

Talking about the same, Naga Chaitanya hinted that Telugu heroes especially should work in Bollywood formula. “From a long time, Bollywood heroes are taking a share in profits rather taking huge fee in advance. Even Telugu heroes should do the same to save the producers. I’m ready to work on those lines” said Chaitanya, indicating that the future of Tollywood payment mechanism will change for sure. Already the likes of Pawan Kalyan, Mahesh Babu, Allu Arjun and Jr NTR have started this profit-sharing exercise if our sources are to be believed.

“Being son a producer, as his father runs very own Annapurna Studios, Naga Chaitanya could understand all the financial logics easily. But other heroes don’t budge and they take part in shooting only with full payment paid” commented a senior most film industry person.

Hope other star heroes do understand the situation of producers and start this profit-sharing thing.
