Distributors to make 50% losses due to The Raja Saab. Maruthi who directed The Raja Saab with Prabhas in the lead, may still sound a confident picture saying people will understand and enjoy the film when they watch the film for the second time.
But it is known that right from the premiers, The Raja Saab got a huge negative talk and no amount of promotions will help it. According to the latest, it is coming out that the distributors in two Telugu states are likely to lose 40-50 percent.
A distributor says &ldquo;The Raja Saab has collected only between â‚¹3 crore and â‚¹5 crore per day over the last three days, taking its total Telugu states net collections to around â‚¹70 crore,&rdquo;
The distributor added &ldquo;Distributors are likely to incur losses ranging between 40 and 50 percent in the Telugu states, which is a significant setback in recent times, unless collections show a sudden improvement, or else it would be difficult to cross the Rs 150 crore figure,&rdquo;
A distributor said &ldquo;Prabhas&rsquo; charisma alone is not enough; he also needs a solid story to support him.&rdquo;
