Ravanasura is one film that Ravi Teja pinned a lot of hopes on. He played a lawyer in the film and his character had negative shades with a purpose. The crime thriller was released with much hype as Ravi Teja's last film Dhamaka was a massive hit at the box office.
Well, the film started on a good note on day one but as the word of mouth was bad, the occupancy fell down in no time and the film ended as a massive flop at the box office. The OTT rights of the film were bagged by Amazon Prime and Ravanasura was supposed to release in the first week of May as per the agreement.
But as the film flopped, Ravi Teja, who is also one of the producers, held discussions with Prime Video and advanced the release. So that is the reason, the film came out on the 28th of April all of a sudden. The word is that the makers ended up making a few extra crores for the digital release.
Ravanasura was directed by Sudheer Varma and he was held responsible for his shoddy narration. Akkineni Sushanth also played a key role in the film. As many as five heroines were seen in key roles in this film. For now, the crime thriller is getting decent response from the OTT audience.
