Another Lesson to Learn from Ravi Teja and RaPo
With its Pan-Indian flicks, telugu cinema is undoubtedly creating waves. While there are undoubtedly a few celebrities with a pan-Indian appeal, many other performers think of themselves as more successful than those celebrities. ram and ravi Teja, who are releasing this weekend, are the greatest examples. This holiday weekend saw the releases of Ram's Double Ismart and ravi Teja's Mr. Bachchan. The heroes entirely evade their obligations to promote their respective movies. They have only bothered to attend the pre-release events of their respective films, and they have each done a few joint interviews. Not even did they do interviews with the media.
Double Ismart did not have any events in Hyderabad. There were a few for Mr. Bachchan, but ravi Teja skipped them in order to let director Harish shankar cause trouble. A certain mentality exists among certain Pan-Indian celebrities, believing that media appearances and overzealous marketing are beyond of their purview. To a certain extent, it is fine, but ram and ravi Teja are heroes in a struggle. Since 2018, ravi Teja has appeared in thirteen films, however he has only had one solo hit. ram has not seen success since 2019. tamil Superstar vikram has performed admirably for his Thangalaan in contrast to others.
Before the film's release, vikram marketed Thangalaan in hyderabad, Vijayawada, and Vishakapatnam. The crew flew into hyderabad for two days right after the release. Here, they held a successful meeting, and vikram also went to several Hyderabadi theaters. In the post-release promotions, hyderabad was given precedence by the Thangalaan team over Chennai. Consequently, during the christmas season in telugu, Thangalaan's chances improved. Since Vikram, another well-known actor, doesn't hesitate to promote his movies, why should ram, a rookie actor,?
Given the outcome, it makes some sense that ram and ravi Teja would not want to promote the movie once it opens. However, letting the movies die before their premiere is illegal.
