Now, the latest about Kanguva is its rocking pre-release business. As per Track Tollywood’s report, the film is enjoying solid hype in the Telugu market, considering Suriya‘s strong fan following. It is expected that the theatrical rights are locked at around 25 crores in the Telugu states. Theatrical rights in Kerala have been sold at 10 crores. Other regions, too, are fetching big numbers for this film through theatrical rights.
It is learned that Kanguva has fetched a big price in the Hindi belt, too. In addition to theatrical rights, the biggie has reportedly earned a massive amount through audio and satellite rights. It is further reported that Amazon Prime Video has locked an OTT deal for a whopping 80 crores.
If we compare the OTT deal with the film’s reported budget of around 350 crores, Kanguva has recovered 22.85% of its total budget through OTT rights alone. And if we talk about the total pre-release business, it is estimated to bring in around 350 crores for the biggie.
