Sankranti Fight.. Why Is Dil Raju So Confident?
Knowing Dil Raju, his film won't have a shortage of theatres. But he is investing in the distribution of other films too
It is quite common to have competition during the Sankranti season. But the Pongal race in 2024 is going to be 'never before never after' as more than six films are getting released at the same time. Two Tamil dubbing films are arriving at the same time too. The huge lineup of films is making this quite complicated for distributors and exhibitors.
Every filmmaker is confident about their own film's content. Everyone has their own calculations but people are questioning why a big producer like Dil Raju is hellbent on bringing his 'Family Star' during the same season. They are unable to understand why he is so adamant as it was the last film to announce the release date.
Knowing Dil Raju, his film won't have a shortage of theatres. But he is investing in the distribution of other films too. Insiders say that he is very confident on 'Family Star' and he is doing all he can to bring the film during the Sankranti season. Despite all the stumbling blocks, he is making sure that the production of this film never stops.
Even a film like 'Pushpa 2' had a break in shooting on Sunday due to the World Cup final but Dil Raju did not stop the filming of 'Family Man'. This shows how keen he is on bringing 'Family Man' during the Pongal time. Apparently, Dil Raju's confidence in this film revolves around the combination. Parasuram and Vijay Deverakonda previously gave a hit like 'Geetha Govindham'. Family films get a lot of love during the Pongal season and 'Family Man' is going to have that advantage compared to other releases.
All the film needs is a positive talk to make sure that the collections will be huge. Parasuram is known for handling family entertainers and love stories. His comedy timing too is loved by a lot of people. Also, Vijay Deverakonda is a very good actor who can make the audience connect with his character instantly. Also, Dil Raju scored big hits like 'SVSC' and 'Shatamanam Bhavati' during the previous Sankranti seasons.
But the biggest competition for this film is 'Guntur Karam'. Featuring superstar Mahesh Babu in the lead, this Trivikram directorial is a complete commercial entertainer. This is the biggest film of Sankranti without a doubt and Nagarjuna's 'Naa Saami Ranga' is also generating decent buzz. Nag has a decent track record during Sankranti and Venkatesh's 'Saindhav' is also a big threat. The Superhero movie 'HanuMan' is going to cater to kids a lot. But 'Family Star' has a good advantage over the others and Dil Raju's clever strategies always attract the audience. Let us see if Dil Raju's tactics work out this time or not.
