Overseas markets for Telugu films have become a crucial factor now, with their multi million dollar revenues. As a result, producers and directors are catering to this market, to make sure that their film is ‘overseas friendly’.
Among the very few directors who can pull crowds to the theaters, irrespective of the hero, is Krish. Right from his film ‘Gamyam’, he has been making a name for himself and his films tend to do well abroad.
All of this is bringing in unexpected benefits for Balakrishna for his upcoming 100th movie. The film will be directed by Krish and because it is a period epic, Balakrishna is expected to ace the role. As a result, expectations on the film are already increasing in trade circles.
According to reliable info, a bumper offer of 2.75 Crores has been made for the US rights of this movie. This has happened even before the film started rolling and this is a superb figure for Balakrishna, whose overseas market is very limited.
The production house has decided to wait until the second half of the year to open the business, as business will tend to heat up once the visuals and publicity material start trickling out.
