Mahesh Babu and SS Rajamouli’s Varanasi is receiving massive Varanasi business offers from distributors, making it one of the biggest pre-release deals in Telugu cinema history. The magnum opus, which recently unveiled its theme through a stunning glimpse, has emerged as one of the most-anticipated films in Indian cinema.
Glimpse Takes Anticipation to New Level
Before the glimpse release, there were doubts about Varanasi’s commercial prospects despite the star power. However, once the team revealed the film’s theme and visual scale through the glimpse, it stunned audiences and took the anticipation to a whole new level.
The glimpse’s positive reception has triggered a surge in Varanasi business offers across all territories. The film is now reportedly receiving record-breaking quotes from distributors, though the production team is said to be carefully evaluating each proposal before finalizing any deals.
Mythri Movie Makers Frontrunner for Telugu Rights
For the Telugu states theatrical rights, several prominent distributors are competing to acquire Varanasi. Among them, Mythri Movie Makers has reportedly emerged as the frontrunner in negotiations.
The production banner is said to be in the final stages of talks to close the deal for the Telugu territories. Industry sources suggest that if finalized, the Varanasi theatrical rights agreement could set an all-time record for the Telugu states, surpassing all previous theatrical deals.
With Mahesh Babu and Rajamouli collaborating for the first time on this epic project, and the glimpse setting massive expectations, distributors are willing to place unprecedented bets on Varanasi’s box office potential.
