If a film becomes a flop, the settlements between the distributors and the producer are bound to happen. Either the producer gives the money back, or both will settle the amounts in the next film. However, every so often the producers may not be able to stand on their word. The same thing happened with the Producer of Akhil Akkineni’s Agent, and Megastar Chiranjeevi’s Bhola Shankar, Anil Sunkara. A distributor from Uttarandhra has approached the court against him.
It is a well-known fact that the film, Agent became a terrible disaster at the box office. All the distributors who had bought the film have suffered heavy losses. Anil Sunkara had promised some people that he will make up for the loss with Bhola Shankar’s business. In particular, ‘Agent’ was acquired by Gayatri Films and the distributor suffered severe losses. Anil Sunkara had promised to give the Vizag rights of Bhola Shankar to Gayatri Films.
Now, instead of retaining it, Bhola Shankar’s rights have been given to another distribution firm, Vigneshwara Films. Now a ruckus has begun because of this. Not only in the case of Vizag, but the same is the case with the overall Uttarandhra region. It is being reported that the distributor tried to reach the producer, but Anil Sunkara was not responding to the calls it seems. Now he approached the court on this, and we need to wait and see how this problem reaches a solution.
Sometimes in the industry, it is not even in the hands of the producer to decide to give a certain area’s rights to a particular person. The films have to be sold according to the oblation of the heroes also. Anil Sunkara is also said to have the same thing earlier to the distributors. Anil Sunkara needs to clear the Agent’s headaches first to avoid any problems before the release of Bhola Shankar.
