Satakarni Target is 46.8 crores Nandamuri Balakrishna's Gautamiputra Satakarni is gearing up for release on Jan 12th. The film did a superb pre-release business of Rs 46.8 crores worldwide. The Ap/Tg rights sold for Rs 37 crores, Karnataka - 3.8 crores, Overseas - 4 crores and rest estimated - 2 crores.
However, the target was easy to achieve for the film. It was exempted from Tax in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh which is going to help the movie big time. As the movie was declared Tax free in both states, it can benefit up to 20% collections from Ap/Tg box office which makes it break even easy to reach. Considering the craze on the movie and Advantage of Sankranthi Holiday season, the task can be much more easier.
Finally, let's wait and see how the movie performs at the box office in a few more days. On the other hand, the Satavahana Pathakotsavam was held grandly today which helped in boosting the promotions of the film before the release.
