In recent years, Dil Raju’s production strategies have undergone some changes. Previously, he had tight control over both content and budgets, allowing him to deliver high-quality projects within reasonable financial limits. However, there has been a shift lately, with budgets escalating significantly and content quality suffering as a result.
Looking at Dil Raju’s recent productions, films like “Shaakunthalam” and “Varisu” have exceeded their budgetary limits, yet failed to deliver strong content. While “Varisu” managed to break even, it failed to generate any profits, and “Shaakunthalam” incurred significant losses. Similarly, “Thank You,” released last year, also exceeded its budget and turned out to be a major box office disaster.
Currently, ongoing productions such as “Game Changer” have already surpassed their budget limits, with Dil Raju acknowledging that everything is beyond his control. Additionally, the upcoming film “Family Star,” starring Vijay Devarakonda, is rumored to have exceeded its planned budget by a considerable margin. However, the business prospects for “Family Star” seem uncertain, both in terms of theatrical and non-theatrical revenues.
Despite his previous success, Dil Raju seems to be struggling to reign in production costs. While a modest increase of 10% to 15% above the planned budget may be expected, the budgets for his recent projects have skyrocketed by 30%, 40%, or even 50%. This trend raises concerns about Dil Raju’s ability to manage budgets effectively in the current landscape of the film industry.
