Chiru ticks share in business over paycheck for Bholaa Shankar?

Megastar Chiranjeevi is showing a new path for young heroes by reportedly taking a share in the business of his upcoming movie ‘Bholaa Shankar’ over drawing huge remuneration. Invariably, helping producer Anil Sunkara who has to otherwise dole out huge advance amounts and incur huge interest amounts for the same.

“It is a very interesting move since the megastar didn’t want the producer to suffer. For instance, if the producer had paid Rs 15 or 20 crores as advance, the producer could have had less money on hand for production besides the interest burden for 18 to 20 months. Now, he could save on interest as well splurge huge bucks for the making," the source adds.

Eventually,  the producer was able to spend more on the project and it is bound to reflect on the quality of the film. “They could rope in big names like Keerthy Suresh and Tamannaah besides shooting at varied locations like Kolkatta and picturesque foreign locales to give a new look to this somber Tamil remake of ‘Vedalam,” he adds

With the first look, teaser, and two songs, the much-hyped film has triggered a lot of buzz in the industry and trade circles, the producer is planning to sell the big-budget flick for more Rs 120-odd crores including theatricals, digital, and other rights. ‘Chiranjeevi could be getting anywhere between Rs 35 to 40 crores share to befit his stature and stardom, while the producer will also make a decent profit, a win-win situation for both,” he concludes.
