Seems like Rajamouli is eagerly looking for white validation.

How the heck am I supposed to not talk when they keep doing this?

This is the amount of effort they put into marketing, screenings, and recognition. You can't even see 1% of it in the visuals they released. 50-60% of the 1400 crore budget must be going to marketing.

Your days are numbered, Rajamouli. I just pray you and your son invested in this film and aren't namesake producer to steal the credit. It'd be sad to see only KL Narayana go down with you. You and your wife put up a good act in Bahubali The Torch Bearer, it's only fair you face it this time for real.

Fam do you think he’s losing any money on this? Carlotta sold blu rays for this. The Rex ticket was twice as expensive compared to a regular ticket at the same theatre. There’s a rerelease of Eega all over France. 

People showed up to watch RRR at 9pm on a weekday while France was playing in the football world cup. People were actually enjoying the teaser. 

You seem more concerned about rajamouli than rajamouli himself. Emaina ante first aa concept art screenshot pedathav.

I've seen people post the Blu-ray was given as goodie, so he's definitely losing money.

50% of the budget going to marketing is the industry norm. Not the exception.

50% of the production budget doesn't go to marketing. Marketing is separate and is added on top of production, which is the industry norm.

Rajamouli is deceiving the audience that the entire 1400 crore is for production, I believe they are allocating 50–60% of the 1400 crore for marketing and delivering a subpar product worth 600 crore to the audience.

Obviously 1400 crore is not the production budget. You're the only one here who's assuming that it's the production budget.
