Calling Natural Star Nani the most bankable actor of Tollywood will draw no objection from any quarter because he commands an enviable box office track record like no other in the current generation. His producers usually walk away with considerable profits due to his strong theatrical market and digital business. This is why he is the most successful actor among the second tier of stars.
Having scored back-to-back blockbusters with Dasara and Hi Nanna, Nani has once again reinstated his position in Tollywood. After going through a lean phase, the success of both these films revived Nani’s market. Producers are now willing to pump in big budgets for his films.
Earlier, Nani’s films were made with a budget of 40-50 Crores. But, his upcoming film Saripodhaa Sanivaaram is going to be the costliest film of his career with over 75 Crores budget. As Nani’s theatrical market is on the rise, producer DVV Danayya didn’t blink an eye when the director quoted such a staggering budget to make it on a grand scale.
Director Vivek Athreya, who previously worked for Ante Sundaraniki with Nani, has reportedly penned several action blocks in Saripodhaa Sanivaaram which require a solid budget to make them visually appealing. Heavy VFX effects and lavish sets are required to match the vision of the director. And, the producer has no hesitation to shell out the money bags as he trusts Nani’s box office clout.
The first look teaser hinted that Saripodhaa Sanivaaram is all about Nani’s unbridled rage which he displays every Saturday. The peculiar trait sets the tone for a series of remarkable events and how he handles them forms the rest of the story.
The filming is progressing at a rapid pace. It will hit the screens on August 29th.
