Vishwambhara’s September Release – A Do Or Die Situation

0

Megastar Chiranjeevi’s Vishwambhara is a socio-fantasy movie, and it involves a lot of CG work. The film has been made with a huge budget. It was moved from the original date, and Vishwambhara’s September release has become a do-or-die situation.

Due to reworks in VFX, the film was delayed, and the budget got much bigger. The film has become the costliest-budgeted one in Chiranjeevi’s career.

Megastar Chiranjeevi’s Vishwambhara’s Release Struggles

After considering a few dates, the team wants to arrive in September, but it has not been announced yet.

According to the industry buzz, if Vishwambhara fails to arrive in September, then recovering the budget is not at all possible, and if they miss that, then it has to move directly to Summer 2026.

Then the budget of the film will increase, and even on the business side, there will be an effect due to the delay.

So, Vishwambhara’s September release has become a do-or-die situation, and the team needs to release a new glimpse with quality VFX and has to release it in September.

Hero Remunerations Drop: Stars Offering to Work for Less

0

With the OTT era and the pan-India trend, the big stars have gone to a pan-India level, and the budgets and business have increased along with the heroes’ remuneration. Now, heroes’ remuneration drops, and stars are offering to work for less.

As said above, the remunerations increased for stars because of the pan-India trend. For big stars’ and directors’ movies, the market is still there, as they have not been greatly affected by the OTT decline.

The stars who have been mostly affected are younger heroes and a few tier 2 heroes. In the OTT era, the heroes raised their remuneration big time, and the producers also agreed to whatever the heroes wanted.

Change in the OTT Era leads to the decline in the Heroes’ Remunerations

But with the OTT rise, many heroes’ theatrical markets started to drop, and at the same time, they also failed to deliver good successes. 

Lately, the OTT platforms have become very selective in choosing the films, and they are not offering huge deals like before. Because of this change, producers are unable to manage the budgets, and the businesses are dropping many films.

Even the heroes’ remuneration drops, and stars are offering to work for less because of the change in digital business. Reportedly, the stars have cut their remuneration and are encouraging the producers to proceed with the budgets.

A few heroes are even refusing the entire remuneration and are taking the remuneration from the movie’s business and profits.

This is definitely a good decision from Heroes, but they also need to choose good scripts and have to deliver good projects.

Tragic incidents continue on film sets, despite industry efforts for safety. Lately, another such incident has come to light as a stunt master dies on the set of PA Ranjith’s film.

Stuntman Raju tragically died on the set of Pa Ranjith and Arya’s new film. On July 13, Raju had an accident while doing a car stunt. Tamil actor Vishal confirmed the news on X (Twitter).

Vishal, who collaborated with Raju on various projects, voiced his heartfelt grief over the loss. “So difficult to digest the fact that stunt artist Raju passed away while doing a car-toppling sequence for Jammy (@arya_offl) and Beemji Ranjith’s film this morning. I have known Raju for so many years.

He has performed so many risky stunts in my films time and time again, as he is such a brave person,” Vishal wrote.

There’s new footage out showing Raju in a botched stunt. He was behind the wheel of an SUV during a scene when it went off a ramp, tipped over, and crashed hard onto its front.

Another video showed Raju getting yanked from the badly damaged car and taken to the ambulance.

As stunt master Raju lies on the set of PA Ranjith’s film, netizens discuss on social media and are trying to find where the mistake happened.

Vishal guaranteed his support for Raju’s family. “My deepest condolences, and may his soul rest in peace. May God give more strength to his family for their grave loss.

Not just this tweet, but I will definitely be there for his family’s future, being from the same film industry, and also for his contribution to so many films. From the bottom of my heart and as my duty, I extend my support to them. God bless,” he added.
