The film has been postponed for the past six months. Now, Yevadu is slotted for a Sankranti release. But since it is being released alongside Mahesh Babu’s 1-Nenokkadine, industry analysts feel it will face some business problems.
It is a known fact that Mahesh Babu has a lot of craze in the US market. So, releasing Yevadu in competition with ‘1’ is a risky business feel its distributors. It is heard that the distributors who bought the film’s rights are no longer keen on doing business in the US. Apparently, a distributor told Dil Raju that it will be difficult for Yevadu to get theatres and to make business if the film is released during Sankranti. But if the film defers the Sankranti release, then it will stand to lose in the state.
Hence, Dil Raju will have to look out for a new distributor or distribute the film himself in the US. Last year, when Ram Charan’s Nayak released along with Seetamma Vakitlo Sirimalle Chettu, it was a huge flop in the US. But the film was a hit here. Despite positive talk and good reviews, Nayak failed to win over the audience in the US over SVSC. That’s the reason why the buyers in the US are thinking twice before tying up with Yevadu!
