After his most recent films had major box office failures, superstar nagarjuna Akkineni is waiting for the ideal project to come along in his career. He has chosen the script prasanna Kumar of "Dhamaka" fame wrote and is willing to turn him into a director as well. While nagarjuna made the ultimate decision on this project after considering Dhamaka's success, sources claim that another intriguing event also occurred at this time.
In reality, demand is great for writer Prasanna, whose most recent unremarkable movie "Dhamaka," which also became a big hit, according to the producers, who claim that the movie has already grossed close to 101+ crores in box office receipts. Although nagarjuna is reported to have initially just promised him 50 lakhs to write and direct the movie, the writer is alleged to be making exorbitant demands. The rumour is now spreading that nagarjuna decided to pay the writer the 2 crores requested after seeing Dhamaka's success.
Many are currently speculating as to whether this will be the first time in tollywood history that a debutant filmmaker receives compensation in crores, as tollywood is known for paying debutant directors a salary for a period of 10 months, which will only amount to a few lakhs each month. On the other hand, Vakkantam Vamsi, a writer who formerly demanded crores for his work, didn't receive as much money for his first movie, Na peru Surya.
