Liger Distributors Lose About 50-75 % Of Investment; To Meet Producer-Director Puri Jagannadh?

Puri
Jagannadh’s
most
anticipated
project
written,
directed,
and
produced
by
him
in
association
with
Charmme
Kaur
and
Karan
Johar,
Liger,
starring
Vijay
Deverakonda
bombed
at
the
box
office.
The
movie
made
so
much
noise
ahead
of
its
theatrical
release.
The
team
toured
as
many
as
17
major
cities
in
India
from
Kashmir
to
Kanya
Kumari,
promoting
their
film.
The
attitude
of
Vijay
Deverakonda
during
promotions
of
the
film
caught
the
attention
of
the
public
and
fans
for
all
the
wrong
reasons.

However,
owing
to
the
film’s
poor
performance
and
negative
response,
the
producers
and
distributors,
who
have
invested
their
money
and
hopes
in
Vijay’s
stardom
are
now
in
a
fix
over
incurring
severe
losses.
The
film,
which
was
reportedly
made
on
a
budget
of
about
Rs
100
Crore
is
said
to
have
left
the
investors
in
a
minimum
loss
of
about
50
%
to
75%.

Puri
Jagannadh,
who
recently
returned
to
Hyderabad
from
Mumbai
is
said
to
have
been
looking
into
the
settlement
issues
of
Liger.
While
there
are
rumours
that
Puri,
Charmme,
and
Vijay
have
returned
a
heavy
part
of
their
remuneration
for
compensating
the
losses,
nothing
was
official
as
yet.

Moreover,
distributors
who
have
invested
in
Liger
are
eager
to
meet
Puri
Jagannadh
and
discuss
the
further
course
of
action.

Liger
stars
Ananya
Panday
as
the
female
lead
and
has
Boxing
legend
Mike
Tyson
in
a
crucial
role.
The
movie
stars
Ramya
Krishnan,
Ali,
Makarand
Deshpande,
Vishu,
and
Ronit
Roy
in
pivotal
roles.

Sunil
Kashyap
scored
the
film’s
unimpressive
soundtrack
and
Vishnu
Sarma
worked
as
the
cameraman.
Junaid
Siddiqui
edited
Liger
and
several
pop
stars
have
been
credited
for
composing
songs
and
lyrics
for
the
film.
