Suriya’s Kanguva was released amidst extremely high expectations in Tamil as well as . The Kollywood star has a very good following in Telugu states and since the movie was a period action film made on heavy budget, the movie was bought for huge amount by the Telugu distributors. Unfortunately, the film’s content was not that strong and it ended up as high loss venture for everyone involved.
This week’s release Dragon which stars Love Today hero Pradeep Ranganathan’s is being seen as compensation for Telugu buyers as same set of distributors involved in both the films. If Dragon works well, then it will cover Kanguva’s losses for Telugu buyers. The makers of Dragon have done good promotions in Telugu as well and a pre-release event with the team also took place on Sunday.
The film also stars Anupama Parameswaran and Kayadu Lohar. Pradeep’s earlier hit film Love Today and presence of Anupama Parameswaran is expected to draw crowds and of the film manages to get off to a good talk, then the distributors are in for a good time.
