Gopichand is working with director Maruthi for the first time in his career for the film, Pakka Commercial. Raashi Khanna is playing the leading lady role in the movie and after Jill, she is teaming up with Gopichand. This is her second movie with Maruthi, as well.
The latest reports suggest that the director has asked producers to erect worth of Rs. 1.5 crores budget for a song. Once the set is ready, movie team will start shooting.
Gopichand hasn't been able to find a huge blockbuster film that will put up numbers close to Rs. 40 crores. His highest stands at Rs. 22-24 crores.
And we hear that this movie is being made at the budget of Rs. 24-25 crores. It is the costliest movie in the actor's career, made with higher budget than Goutham Nanda.
While this is a good thing for Telugu Cinema during regular times, when we are going through deadly pandemic and producers are unable to find good release dates, theatrical business is under major threat increasing the budget will be a major problem.
No matter how well we make a film, recovery needs to be assured and without such an assurance, spending money is like playing blinds at the casino. This kind of gamble will either cause for never seen before profits or never imagined losses.
May be producers and directors should think about the situation that world is in right now and make their moves. For industry to progress smoothly, everyone need to stay united and bring in measures that will help all. If one spends huge on one film, the other actor will also start demanding and same thing will continue, all around. Hope Telugu producers will understand the problems ahead and make smart choices, take smart decisions going forward.
