2017 is indeed going to be an interesting year ahead. The South film industry is gearing up for two big, fat global releases too.
SS Rajamouli’s ‘Baahubali 2′ has Prabhas, Rana Daggubati, Satyaraj, Tamannaah Bhatia and Anushka Shetty whereas Shankar’s ‘Robot 2.0′ will be led by Rajinikanth and Akshay Kumar with Amy Jackson playing the female lead.
Looks like Superstar Rajinikanth’s upcoming project robot ‘2.0′ is likely to beat the records of ‘Baahubali-The Conclusion’.

Recently, the makers of 2.0 sold the satellite rights of the film’s all versions, including Tamil, Telugu and Hindi, to Zee Network for a price, which is pegged at Rs 110 crore. By far, this is the biggest deal in the history of satellite deals.
However, neither the makers nor the channel has made a formal announcement on the deal. If this turns out to be true, then Rajinikanth’s 2.0 gets the credit as the highest-paid Indian film for satellite rights.
‘Enthiran 2’ is set to beat the record of SS Rajamouli’s ‘Baahubali 2′, which is estimated to have made about Rs 100 crore from the sale of satellite rights.
The satellite rights of ‘Baahubali 2′ for Hindi (Rs 51 crore) and Telugu (Rs 26 crore) were sold for fancy amounts. The Tamil and Malayalam versions are estimated to have made over Rs 20 crore.
2.0 is being made with a massive budget of Rs 400 crore and Lyca Productions has bankrolled the project. The movie is the biggest film made in India in terms of budget and has to set the box office on fire to reap profits to the makers.
