‘KyA’ Planning Hain Kiran Abbavaram!

Kiran Abbavaram is one of the bankable heroes in Telugu cinema right now. He had been struggling with a series of flops but finally found success with Ka, which was released last Diwali and became a super hit. Before that, his career seemed to be in freefall, especially after Rules Ranjan, which made audiences lose faith in him. Many assumed Kiran had hit rock bottom. However, he took a break, focused on Ka, and managed to bounce back. But there is a strategy behind releasing Ka first and Dilruba next.

With the latest release of Dilruba, Kiran has reverted to his old ways, leaving everyone questioning why he chose this project after Ka. The truth is, Dilruba was made before Ka, but Kiran put it on hold, sensing that it wouldn’t do well.

At the time, he was in the middle of a disastrous run, and if Dilruba had been released, then it would have only worsened his situation. He saw potential in Ka to revive his career, so he prioritized its release.

This decision helped Kiran and benefited Saregama, which acquired Dilruba and ensured a safe outcome for the producers. The film’s well-cut trailer and positive buzz contributed to its success, guaranteeing good openings. If Dilruba had come out earlier, it wouldn’t have generated the same interest or business. By delaying Dilruba and first securing a hit with Ka, Kiran could sell Dilruba more effectively. In hindsight, it was a smart move that worked in his favor.

However, Kiran has to struggle now to bounce back one more time with his upcoming film and put a permanent end to mediocre subjects.
