Rebel may sell for a bomb
- IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,January 12 2012]
Going by the trends in the industry, Prabhas' Rebel may go for a bomb. It is because not one, but two names are associated with it. Larencce is in good form, so also Prabhas, whose last film was a decent hit.
They say nothing succeeds like success. With a hero like Prabhas, who has two back-to-back hits (Darling and Mr. Perfect) and a director like Larencec Raghava (with Muni and Kanchana in his kitty), Rebel has come to be the cynosure of the buyers' eyes.
The film may go for a big amount, say trade pundits.
Meanwhile, there is scepticism also. The director's last two straight Telugu films, namely Style and Don, did not give profits to its makers. As the result, the director has so far had to rest on the laurels he has earned with Mass.
In any case, Larencce's Kanchana fetched the producer of the Telugu version, Bellamkonda Suresh, four times more than what he invested. This statistic makes Rebel the buyers envy.
Krishnam Raju is seen in the film as Prabhas' father. They were last seen together in Billa. If the film strikes gold, the director-actor duo will have a shot in the arm.
