First half of 2019 is full of disappointment for Tollywood. Maximum of big ticket films bombed at box office, while only few medium range movies attained success status. So, Tollywood is hoping big on films to be released in second half of this year.
Young Rebel Star Prabhas’s Saaho releasing on August 15th is the next big attraction. Not just Telugus, but entire nation is awaiting the release of the Sujeeth directorial. The film’s promotional content did attract one and all, especially action movie lovers.
Saaho business has already been closed for most of the centers for record prices. Even Bollywood filmmakers and buyers are betting big on the high octane action entertainer. Trade analysts opine Saaho will end as one of the biggest grossers in India, given the craze for the film.
Mega Star Chiranjeevi’s Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy is the other highly anticipated film of 2019. Directed by Surender Reddy, Sye Raa will see theaters on October 2nd. The film’s shooting has been wrapped up and currently post-production works are underway.
The film’s producer Ram Charan who is pretty confident of Sye Raa to become a massive hit is demanding exorbitant prices for theatrical rights. Believing in mega stamina and positive buzz, buyers are daring to invest big amount.
Besides Chiru, Sye Raa has many specials from popular actors such as Amitabh Bachchan, Vijay Sethupathi, Sudeep etc. Above all, audience are keen to watch Chiru in the role of a freedom fighter.
Stylish Star Allu Arjun is expected to give happy ending to 2019 with his ongoing film with Trivikram Srinivas. The film’s release was initially planned for Sankranthi. But, Bunny pre-poned his film as to avoid clash with Chiru’s next film with Koratala Siva.
In the meantime, few small to high budget films are hitting the screens. But, Saaho and Sye Raa are the most anticipated films in 2019.
