A biopic on Raghupati Venkaiah Naidu was released in the last week of November and Naresh played the titular role. Dil Raju had acquired the total distribution rights of the film and there was hardly one person who saw the film in the theatre.
By the time morning show wound up, the film was removed from all the seventy theatres. The root cause for this is abnormal ticketing. The film might not have been made well but overall this is the position of films on the first day of theatres.
The youth are attracted to piracy and if we are in the know, Nikhil put up the DVDs of Arjun Suravaram on his social media even while he was promoting the film. He looked so helpless. The percentage of super hit films in Telugu film industry is only 2 to 8 percent.
Most people prefer to see it on OTT platforms or on pirated DVDs. If this is the situation what will happen to Telugu cinema?
