Did Tillu Star Surpass the Rowdy Star?

Siddu Jonnalagadda's journey to Tollywood success wasn't a straight shot. After facing flops like "Krishna and His Leela," his fortunes finally flipped with the massive success of "DJ Tillu" and its sequel, "Tillu Square." The movies became a launchpad, propelling him into the spotlight and showering him with offers. However, some industry whispers suggest Siddu might be getting a bit ahead of himself.

Riding the wave of his back-to-back hits, Siddu's market value has skyrocketed. He's reportedly demanding a whopping remuneration exceeding Rs. 15 crore for upcoming films, including "Tillu Square" itself. This puts him above the established star Vijay Deverakonda's asking price, raising eyebrows in the industry.

Despite the high fees, producers are lining up to work with Siddu. His upcoming projects with Jack, Neeraja Kona, and Bommarillu Bhaskar are generating excitement. If these films deliver, Siddu's salary could touch a staggering Rs. 20 crore this year.

Industry veterans seem to understand Siddu's strategy. He's simply striking while the iron is hot, capitalizing on his newfound fame. Fans, on the other hand, are just eager for more entertaining movies from their rising star. With "Tillu Square" already a hit and promising projects on the horizon, Siddu's future appears to be shining bright.
