Is Puri too costly for Tollywood?

Well, he’s got a whopping Rs 8 crore from producer Bandla Ganesh to make Iddarammayilatho.

Unfortunately for him, all his films in recent times have not done well at the box office. Devudu Chesina Manushulu, Cameraman Ganga Tho Rambabu and now Iddarammayilatho haven’t done much to increase his credibility. Neither are there any producers who would like to shell out such a huge amount to him.

Usually, as a norm, Puri tries to finish off work on one film, starts the promotion and then gets on to another film. That has been his habit all along, but after Iddarammayilatho, he has no films on hand in Tollywood.

So, it is likely that he will now go to Bollywood. He has been planning to remake Idiot in Hindi for a long time. Once he has a hit in Bollywood, he can always come back to Tollywood with a successful film in his kitty!
