After the massive success of ‘HanuMan’, leading Hindi distributor Anil Thadani , who is also the husband of Raveena Tandon, has been focusing on Telugu films these days. “He made huge money with ‘HanuMan’ in Hindi heartland and now he is looking to invest more in Telugu films,” says a source and adds, “Anil has brought the Hindi dubbing rights of ‘Pushpa 2’ and now clinched a fancy deal with Jr NTR for ‘Devara’ and plans to release the film in varied centres across North India,” he adds.
However, for ‘Devara’ he has teamed up with his colleague and producer Karan Johar since they find potential in releasing NTR-Janhvi Kapoor film in a big way. “NTR is at its peak among Hindi film viewers after the massive success of ‘RRR”. Now, NTR is a household name in Hindi heartland too since most of his dubbed films were patronised by Hindi film viewers in the past," he adds.
