What’s good is that the reported budget is less than 40 crores. Keep reading for a detailed report!
Budget of Dude revealed
The Kollywood romantic comedy film doesn’t feature any big stars, thus reducing the burden of a heavy paycheque. Also, it isn’t a magnum opus. With a light-hearted theme and decent production value, the rom-com is mounted on a controlled budget. While there’s no official confirmation, it is reportedly made on a budget of 35 crores.
How much does Dude need to earn to become a hit at the Indian box office?
With a reported budget of 35 crores, Dude doesn’t need to do heavy lifting to become a success at the Indian box office. To enter the safe zone, it must earn 35 crore net. To become a clean hit, it needs to make 100% returns, which will be achieved at a net collection of 70 crores. Earning 70 crores won’t be a big task, as the film is already eyeing 35 crore+ during the opening weekend.
