Low-Budget Telugu Film ‘Raju Wed Rambai’ Becomes Surprise Hit, Heads to Streaming
HYDERABAD – The Telugu film industry has seen a surprise hit this year with the release of “Raju Wed Rambai.” Made on a modest budget of ₹2.5 crore, the film has grossed an impressive ₹22 crore at the box office, earning a staggering 623% profit.
The film, produced by Venu Udugula (director of “Virata Parvam”), is now set for its digital premiere on ETV Win OTT on December 18th. ETV Win, which co-produced the film, has been promoting the digital release with the tagline, “The Biggest Love Story is Coming to Your Home.”
“Raju Wed Rambai,” directed by Sailu Khambampati, was initially released in theaters on November 21st and quickly gained positive reviews, leading to increased audience interest and strong box office numbers. A key factor in the film’s success has been the viral popularity of the song “Rambai Nee Meeda Naaku Manasayene.”
The film features Akhil Raj and Tejaswi Rao in the lead roles, alongside Shivaji Raja, Chaitu Jonnalagadda, and Anitha Chowdary. “Raju Wed Rambai” tells a story based on real-life events about lovers in a village on the border of Khammam and Warangal who must overcome obstacles to be together.
The plot revolves around Raju (Akhil Raj), a band musician, and Rambai (Tejaswi Rao), who are in love. Rambai’s father, Venkanna (Chaitanya Jonnalagadda), wants his daughter to marry someone with a government job. Raju, desperate to marry Rambai, orchestrates a situation where Rambai becomes pregnant, believing it will force Venkanna to agree to the marriage. The film explores the consequences of this decision and whether Raju and Rambai ultimately get their happily ever after.
ETV Win has announced that the OTT release will feature a longer runtime than the theatrical version, further increasing anticipation among viewers.
