Darshan's Yajamana Digital Rights Bought By Amazon Prime; Second Highest For Kannada After KGF!
Karnataka Box Office announced on Twitter that Amazon Prime has bought the digital rights for Yajamana. For now, Darshan's film is the second highest for Kannada after KGF.
Looks
like
Amazon
Prime
is
headed
towards
offering
its
viewers
all
that
they
desire
from
the
entertainment
realm.
Last
month,
the
streaming
site
created
a
fad
among
Yash's
fans
by
announcing
the
premiere
of
KGF
Chapter
1
on
their
portal.
The
rights
for
the
blockbuster
film
were
bought
for
a
whopping
Rs
18
crore,
making
it
the
highest
sold
Kannada
film.
Today,
Karnataka
Box
Office
announced
on
Twitter
that
Amazon
Prime
has
bought
the
digital
rights
for
Yajamana.
The
film
released
only
a
week
ago.
For
now,
Darshan's
film
is
the
second
highest
for
Kannada
after
KGF.
The
premiere
date
is
yet
to
be
announced.
Karnataka
Box
Office
tweeted,
"#Yajamana
Digital
rights
has
been
sold
to
#AmazonPrime

approx
3.75cr..All
time
2nd
Highest
for
a
Kannada
Movie..Satellite
rights
already
has
been
sold
to
Suvarna
TV(Star
group)"

Since
the
film
has
just
hit
the
theatres,
we
need
to
wait
for
a
while
until
it's
premiered
on
the
streaming
site.
Though
Amazon
created
immense
happiness
among
the
fans
by
announcing
the
streaming
of
KGF
on
their
platform,
they
ensured
they
teased
them
enough
prior
to
that.
They
shared
tweets
such
as
,
"Amazon
Prime
Video
India
:
*breathes*Audience
:
when
is
KGF
gonna
release?"
-
(sic)
&
Within
minutes,
Amazon's
previous
tweet
received
over
1000
RT's.
But,
they
wouldn't
stop
at
that.
To
tease
Yash's
fans
further,
another
tweet
followed,
"@Twitter
we
might
need
an
edit
button
here
buddy"
-

Meanwhile,
Yajamana
is
performing
well
in
the
theatres.
The
film
grossed
around
Rs
6.7
crore
on
the
day
of
release.
Over
the
weekend
there
was
a
slight
hike
in
the
bookings,
due
to
which
it
collected
around
Rs
15
crore
at
the
box
office.
The
Darshan
and
Rashmika
starrer
needs
to
make
a
profit
of
Rs
33
core
to
ensure
the
makers
don't
experience
any
loss.
