Dictator clinches Rs 40 Cr business?

While Nandamuri Balakrishna’s Dictator is still under shoot, Eros International, the production company that is co-producing the movie, is already selling the movie to various distributors for several areas. As per our sources, the movie is expected to be sold to the tune of Rs 40 Cr business going by the current asking prices.

While films of big heroes like Mahesh Babu, Pawan Kalyan, Ram Charan, Allu Arjun and NTR routinely do more than Rs 50 Cr business, senior heroes movies don’t sell beyond Rs 30 – 35 Cr. Since Balakrishna is enjoying good popularity off late and his films are collecting huge money if they become successful, this film will be getting good pre-release figures, sources informed us.

Directed by Sri Wass, Dictator is gearing up for release for Sankranthi. The movie has completed its talkie part and a couple of songs are yet to be filmed. 

Anjali, Aksha and Sonal Chauhan are the heroines of the movie while Thaman is scoring the music. The movie’s audio event will be held on 20th December in Amaravathi in Andhra Pradesh.
