If the stardom and brand value of SS Rajamouli alone can fetch high satellite price for his own films, what would be the final value if there is stellar star cast like Prabhas, Rana, Anushka etc add it to a film? Yes, we are speaking about the ever increasing craze around ‘Bahubali.’ Just after the tentative release date of ‘Bahubali - Part 1’ is announced by Jakkanna as May 15, there is more of discussions began in trade circles.
As per a buzz, MAA TV won the TV screening rights of ‘Bahubali - Part 1’ for a whopping sum of Rs.10 Crores. Although nothing is officially known, these aren’t shocking numbers. Selling Part 1 to one channel and Part 2 to other channel might be a wrong strategy. So, there are chances of MAA TV to win the combo deal (Part 1 + Part 2) for a fancy price of something around Rs. 20 to 22 Crores. This could be a new record indeed.
