Yesterday, SVC (Sri Venkateshwara Creations), owned by Dil Raju, officially announced that they will be releasing Toxic, starring Yash, in the Telugu states. Immediately after the announcement, a number started circulating on social media claiming that the Telugu states’ rights to Toxic were sold for a huge price of ₹120 crore. However, this information is completely false, and there is no truth to it.
The buzz from our sources is that the price itself has not been finalised yet. Since Dil Raju is a top distributor in the Telugu states and Toxic is releasing in competition with Dhurandhar 2, the producers are associating with Dil Raju to ensure a strong and wide release for the film.
Dil Raju will release Toxic in the Telugu states, but the price has yet to be fixed.
The film will most likely be handled on an advance-plus-commission basis, where the producer will bear the entire risk, similar to an own release. Dil Raju will only pay an advance amount, and even that advance is yet to be finalised.
The reason behind Dil Raju’s association goes beyond just Yash’s Toxic. KVN Productions is planning multiple films in the coming years, with Toxic being one of them. Their Jana Nayagan is also ready for release. In addition, a big film starring Bobby and Chiranjeevi, produced by KVN Productions, is in the pipeline, with a few more projects currently under discussion. This long-term collaboration is the main reason behind Dil Raju’s interest in associating with KVN Productions.
