Breakeven Target
For a small-budget Telugu film like this, the breakeven target. Totally depends on some non-theatrical sales like OTT, music, satellite rights, and theatrical revenue. If we assume that the film’s budget is ₹5.5 crore, around ₹1.5-₹2 crore could be possible through digital and music rights; about ₹3.5-₹4 crore would generate from theatres to make it breakeven.
This means that the film needs to gross around ₹8-₹9 crore worldwide for producers and distributors to be able to recover their investment safely.
The Bottom Line
In a sense, given its breezy romantic tone and young cast, scenic visuals, The Great Pre-Wedding Show could well do the trick. Being a smaller-budget film, furiously controlled spending does not need megahits; even a modest theatrical run and good OTT deal would suffice to put it into profit.
Estimated Breakeven: ₹8-₹9 crore gross worldwide
