Entrepreneur-turned-film producer Prasad V Potluri, fondly known as PVP aka PV in film circles, said to have lost a whopping Rs 100 Crore in film production. Made his foray in 2011 with Tamil film Rajapattai (Veedinthe), PVP has seen several setbacks. Anushka and Arya-starrer Varna, Size Zero were two major duds PVP Cinema had produced.

While Balupu was an average grosser and a moderate success, even critically acclaimed movie like Oopiri failed to translate into commercial success and resulted in loss in tune of nearly Rs 20 Crore. Oopiri was a cost-failure. And again his latest release Brahmotsavam was opened to divide talk and estimated that buyers would lose big monies as the movie was sold for staggering prices.

Though PVP made money by selling it off to buyers, it’s heard that PVP has to compensate the distributors from the losses. The only saving grace for PVP was Kshanam which he had co-produced. Many thought Mahesh’s Brahmotsavam would bail him out but it looks it’s proving to be other way around.Many in industry circles may say that Rs 100 Crore isn’t big figure for a billionaire like him. But the point is that instances like these are obstructing several other business barons entering into film production.

Chennai: Superstar Rajinikanth, who awaits the release of upcoming Tamil gangster drama “Kabali”, has jetted off on a brief holiday to US with his family.”Having recently completed a schedule of Shankar’s magnum opus ‘2.o’, Rajinikanth decided to take a much needed break to rejuvenate and resume shooting from June. He’s expected to stay in the US for nearly two weeks and return in the second week to join the sets again,” a source close to the 65-year old star told IANS.

In “Kabali”, which is slated for release on July 1, Rajinikanth will be seen playing an ageing gangster. The film’s story is tipped to be based on the real-life story of a Chennai-based don.

In Shankar’s “2.o”, a sequel to blockbuster “Enthiran”, Rajinikanth will return as the popular scientist, Vaseegaran, and he will lock horns with Akshay Kumar in the film.

Although Akhil has been interacting with several directors, the final decision will be taken by his father Akkineni Nagarjuna. The Akkineni camp say all the reports about Akhil doing the remake of “Kammatipaadam” and okaying director Hanu Raghavpudi’s script are not true.Nagarjuna has given the freedom to Akhil to talk to any director and listen to the scripts but Nag will take the final call. One must recall Nagarjuna didn’t want Akhil to attemp such heavy script for his maiden movie “Akhil”.

He asked his son to select a lighter subject but Akhil reportedly insisted on doing that. And the movie bombed. Only after the failure of his maiden film, Akhil Akkineni has realized his mistake and decided to go with his father’s choices. Akhil was to do his second film in the direction of Vamsi Paidipally but the director is not interested in remaking “Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani”. So he asked some time to prepare a new script.

Vamsi Paidipally who went to USA for personal trip will also be coming down to Hyderabad shortly. Nagarjuna will decide the project next month. If Vamsi takes too much time for preparing the script, Nag might go ahead with other directors that Akhil is interacting with.

He is one of the star directors in Tollywood and is known for his blockbuster films and also infamous for his short temper. He had introduced his friends into film production and made some films with them and gave huge hits.But just like any friendship in film industry, things hit a rock between the director and the producers over money matters and their friendship turned sour during the making of their last film together. And now, we have an exclusive update about the director’s arrogance.

The director was so angry with his producer friends that he took an ultra costly revenge on them during the making of their last film together. Apparently, the director had canned a particular scene at an insane budget of Rs. 2 crores even though it was never planned earlier.

As the director is quite close to the hero and they can’t afford any delays in the shoot, the producers had no other option but to shell out such ridiculously excess budget, which had cost them a bomb since the film tanked heavily at the box-office, putting a permanent full stop to their friendship.
