Now one hot topic in the Telugu Film Industry right now is Ram Charan and Sukumar’s second collaboration RC17 film. This combo repeating itself after an industry hit like ‘Rangasthalam’, there is no need to say what the expectations are on this project. The RC17 pooja ceremonies were also recently completed grandly.
Megastar Chiranjeevi himself attended, clapped for the film and launched it, creating a festive atmosphere among the mega fans. After the pooja ceremony, a pre-look poster released by the makers created solid hype for the film on social media. Looking at the small sign in that poster, this film appears to have a mythological touch and Ram Charan’s role in it will be very powerful. Considering all this, a hot topic about the RC17 budget is going viral in Film Nagar circles.
RC17 film is being made on a pan-India scale with a budget of Rs. 400 crores is being discussed in Film Nagar. Mythri Movie Makers, Sukumar Writings and T-Series are jointly producing this film. It seems that the makers are not compromising on the budget due to the success of Sukumar’s last film ‘Pushpa-2’ at the box office and his previous outcome with Ram Charan. Trade sources say that including the huge sets, visual effects and hero remuneration required for the film, spending this much is warranted.
However, the makers have not yet made an official announcement regarding this budget. Meanwhile, the suspense over the lead cast selection for this film is still ongoing. Especially, various speculations surround who the RC17 heroine will be. Everyone thought that the heroine would be revealed at the actual pooja ceremony. But there was no such clarity there either. The reason for this.. seems to be that no one has been finalized so far.
Although some names were initially circulating on social media, it is reported that all those names have been put aside and a new hunt has started again. There is still no complete clarity on who the music director for RC17 will be. There is a sentiment that Devi Sri Prasad will definitely have music for Sukumar’s films. And it has also become interesting to see whether the same combo will be repeated this time too, or whether a different music director will enter the field. The regular shooting for the RC17 film will also start soon. And who is the heroine who will act opposite Charan in this film? Who is the music director? We have to wait a few more days for updates like this.
