Culture Ministry Moscow Delegation Meets Megastar Chiranjeevi!

The Tollywood industry is not regional anymore. Thanks to the current Pan-India trend, the Industry reached places and displayed its capabilities. Tollywood cinema reached the global stage and RRR won the prestigious Oscars. RRR received a big applause from the global audience. This is the growth of Tollywood.

Now we might see a massive collaboration as it looks like it is on the cards. The reason for this is that a delegation of the Culture Ministry of Moscow met Megastar Chiranjeevi at his residence. The main motto of the meeting is to explore the chances of collaboration between Russia and the Indian / Telugu Film Industry.

Chiranjeevi is the right pick for the meetings given his legacy. As a veteran member of the film industry, Chiranjeevi understands every aspect of films and filmmaking. The Mega family is one of the illustrious families and it would be a good start for the possible collaboration.

Talking about the delegation that met the Megastar it includes-Cinema Advisor to the Minister of the Government of Moscow Ms Julia Golubeva, Head of Center for Creative Industries Development, Federal Agency for Strategic Initiatives- Moscow, Ms Ekaterina Cherkez Zade, Director of the Universal University Ms Maria Sitkovskaya and other senior members.

During the interaction, the delegation explained the Creative Industry in Russia and shared thoughts on promoting shootings in Russia. The span of Telugu cinema increased over the years and there are many locations in the country. If the two are combined then we can see a big collaboration. A discussion was also held on the collaborations between the industries.

With this, we can expect a big collaboration. The potential Indian cinema/Tollywood has and the rich locations Russia enjoys can form a great force. India and Russia have been friendly nations for a very long time. With collaboration, the ties can be taken forward.

Dil Raju’s New Plan To Avoid Losses!

Dil Raju is a star producer of Tollywood who created a unique brand for himself through his movies. People keep certain expectations when a movie from his banner arrives. His judgement is rated quite highly but many experts make mistakes at times. There were films that sounded great on paper but ended up being disasters when they arrived on the bigger screens.

Dil Raju is famously known for catering to the family audience by making sure that the family emotions and love are in abundance. But his own productions like ‘Srinivasa Kalyanam’ and ‘Thank You’ turned out to be huge failures. This year, he arrived with Vijay Deverakonda’s ‘Family Star’. He spearheaded the promotion of the film as well. He hoped that the middle-class emotions would work well with the viewers.

But ‘Family Star’ turned out to be a disaster and got a bad response from the morning shows on the first day. It did not pick up after even though a few praised the movie afterwards. It turned out to be a disaster and Dil Raju too ended up in heavy losses due to this movie. But sources say that Dil Raju devised to new plan to recover the lost money. There is a chance that the digital rights might bring back some money. To recover the rest, sources say that ‘Family Star’ will be out on a rental basis before arriving for free on the OTT platform.
Hollywood films are following this path even today.

Streaming apps release English films on a rental basis. But we need to see how the audience embraces this idea. Dil Raju is hopeful that this film will be loved by the families. He says that the negative talk had stopped the family audience from stepping into theatres before. This is why, there is a chance to get some money back on a rent basis.

After a blockbuster like ‘Geetha Govindham’, Vijay and director Parasuram worked together for ‘Family Star’. It is why the movie had huge expectations but Parasuram failed badly.
