Why did ETV rejected Baahubali?





It's always a surprise to find out what's the role of Eenadu group honcho Ramoji Rao in 'Baahubali' movie. As Rajamouli has exclusively credited him in the titles of Baahubali first part, many wondered if he is partner in the movie's production. 

Of late it is rumoured that Ramoji Rao will be retaining the satellite rights of Baahuabali movie's first part which are worth 20 crores. But then, news was broke that ETV offered only 10 crores for the rights not more than that. Finally, it is now heard that MAA TV has jumped to buy Baahubali rights. They have obtained the rights of both first and second parts for 30 crores lump sum. In case if Ramoji is investor in the film, definitely they would have not sold the film to MAA TV. Maybe he gave Ramoji Film City premises for rent, and offered that money to be paid later.

Anyway, all these hypothetical assumptions are one side, and Baahubali movie rights at 15 crores each are on other side. We could say that MAA still stands tall when it comes to picking satellite rights of big films
