'Bahubali-1' Overseas Rights @ Rs 10 Crore

This proves to be the heights of expectation. It is known that SS Rajamouli is making mega budget venture ‘Bahubali’ in two parts.  As per the sources from US trade circles, Rajamouli camp is quoting Rs 10 Cr for the overseas rights of ‘Bahubali’ (Part-1).  

And it is obvious that the price will be separate for ‘Bahubali-2’ that comes in a one month gap. It is clearly the of ‘Rakta Charitra’ set by Ram Gopal Varma that is being followed by Rajamouli. 

Well, but how many US exhibitors show interest to buy the first part and second part at such huge prices and release, is the biggest question.  Amidst piracy where the HD quality print comes online within 3 days of release, will US Telugus come to theatres in such a number to make distributors recover Rs 10 Cr? And it takes two more years to see the film on screen. 

 If the overseas distributors jump ahead and purchase the film with their enthusiasm, then they may also have to bear the interest rates till film hits the screen.  Keeping all these in mind, overseas distributors are in silence as of now.
