Theatrical Business of 'Manmadhudu 2' isn't as big as anybody has anticipated. For some reason, Akkineni Nagarjuna is more than happy offering the Worldwide Rights for around Rs 18 crore.
In his recent interview, Nag didn't hesitate to say 'Manmadhudu' wasn't a blockbuster but a decent hit. He told the romantic entertainer attained the blockbuster status with Television Premieres. Is this why King kept the target of 'Manmadhudu 2' as low as possible? or If his market has fallen after the debacle of 'Officer'? Whatever might be the reason, Buyers will be on cloud nine if the content hits the bull's eye.
'Manmadhudu 2' should comfortably get break-even by the end of First Week even if it's one time watchable. August 9th Release!
