Paid Promotions Upsetting Akhil Buyers
on Oct 8, 2015
Distributors always feel happy if a movie gets extra promotion from Producers in the name of some interviews, TV bytes and others. But in the case of Akhil Akkineni's debut flick "Akhil", they are worried as to what is going to happen with all these paid promotions.
Apparently couple of media houses close to hero Nitin and his father Sudhakar Reddy have not taken the onus of promoting Akhil extensively. Though they are paid promotions, there should be some realistic nature in terms of promotions.
"Actually they are publicising that Akhil's dances are much better and hot than how a Ram Charan, Jr NTR or Allu Arjun dances. These three stars have reached that stage by trying different styles of dances for years. How could Akhil reach that with first film itself? Hype is needed, but not this over hype", said a distributor, under condition of anonymity.
Also it is being publicised that the film got stunning comedy and action all over, thereby raising the bar for collections. In such cases, a slightest disappointment will cost hugely.
