Srinu Vaitla and Ravi Teja's careers are on the verge of ending due to back to back failures. Mythri Movie Makers have joined them and wowed to get them a hit. The producers have shelled out hefty sum on the production and promotion of Amar Akbar Anthony. Its theatrical rights were sold for whopping price of Rs 22 crore. The stakes are very high on the film and it has to make good collection at the box office.
