Shaakunthalam: Here’s how much Dil Raju and Gunasekhar are going to lose

Shaakunthalam comes as a huge shock to Dil Raju and Gunasekhar. Ace producer Dil Raju’s calculations have gone totally awry with Shaakunthalam. He might have thought that films based on Indian mythology will have a good run at the box office and will have a decent Pan-Indian appeal. The presence of Samantha might have played a key role as well. Hence, he came on board for Shaakunthalam and invested a decent amount. It was his idea to convert the film into a 3D format which cost them even more.

In total, both Dil Raju and Gunasekhar invested Rs. 60 Crores in the film and they have received Rs. 35 Crores through digital rights. The satellite rights couldn’t be closed on time. Now, that the film was a debacle, the satellite rights might not fetch much.

Overall, it can be said that the duo has lost nearly Rs. 20 Crores with Shaakunthalam which is a massive amount.
