In Tollywood, a multi-starrer movie can be considered a risk due to various factors. One of the main reasons is the high budget involved in casting multiple stars, which can affect the overall profitability of the movie. Additionally, managing the schedules of multiple actors and coordinating their scenes can also be challenging.
Another risk factor is the audience's expectations from each star, which can lead to comparisons and disappointment if one star's performance is perceived to be weaker than the others. This can affect the movie's reception and box office success. It is without doubt that multi-starrers can also be a lucrative opportunity for filmmakers to bring together a diverse range of stars and their fan bases, generating significant buzz and anticipation for the movie's release.
But after the fan war following international acclaim for RRR and the clamour for global awards, it has become clear that multi starrer involving big stars and their big egos is definitely a risk. Perhaps Rajamouli could pull it off, but beyond an extent even he is unable to devote his energy to bridge the widening rift between Ram Charan and NTR's teams and fans.
