The Nizam distribution circle in the Telangana region is set to expand in the coming days, with several new distribution offices being opened. With many big films lined up for release this year and next, competition to acquire distribution rights is expected to intensify.
Currently, Asian, SVC, and Mythri are the leading distribution houses in the Nizam region. Recently, Annapurna Studios entered the market by opening a distribution office and has taken up the distribution of Vishwak Sen’s upcoming film Funky. In addition, The Girlfriend producer Dheeraj Mogilineni is also opening a new distribution office in Nizam, with Couple Friendly set to be his first release.
Until now, SVC and Asian have enjoyed a strong hold over the Nizam distribution circuit. But with new players entering the scene, they are likely to face stiff competition going forward. Adding to this, Jio Studios is preparing to launch its own distribution office in Telangana, starting with Dhurandhar 2. Meanwhile, multiplex giant PVR Inox Pictures has already begun distributing films independently and has also set up a dedicated office for the same.
With more players stepping in and several high-profile releases on the horizon, the Nizam distribution space is heading towards an interesting and competitive phase.
