The theatrical rights of Vijay-starrer ‘Master’ in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana have been sold out. According to reports from Hyderabad, Mahesh Koneru who released Vijay’s ‘Bigil’ in the Telugu States has snapped the Telugu distribution rights of ‘Master’ for Rs 8.5 crore.
It is said that Vijay has a good market in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, which is why the film’s release rights for the above States have been bought for a good price.
The movie’s Karnataka distribution rights have been acquired by Dheeraj Enterprises, audio rights by Sony Music South and Tamil satellite rights by Sun TV. Digital rights are with Amazon Prime, it is said.
Vijay is said to be playing a college professor in the film, which has an ensemble cast with established stars such as Vijay Sethupathi, Antony Varghese , Malavika Mohanan and Andrea among others playing key roles.
Music is by Anirudh Ravichander. The unique first look poster, featuring an intense Vijay, seems to pack some deep meaning that points to certain traits of Vijay’s character. Plans are on to release the movie for summer 2020.
