R.Chandru's Charminar starring Prem and Meghana Gaonkar  did not make too much of noise when released. But its low production cost and stronger story content has made Charminaar a sleeper hit.
This was disclosed by Gudibande Rajashekhar who is one of the executive producers of the project in a press meet.  The film has run for ten days, and now a beaming Chandru is sharing the happy news of directing the Telugu version of the film in a few weeks.  Telugu actor Naga Chaithanya has been chosen as the hero of the film, while the other selections have to be still made. "We are releasing in another 26 theatres from next week. Since the film has already obtained good opinion, I hope the film get decent shares in all these theatres which are being released now' said R. Chandru.  Chandru said that he is hoping for a long run of the film as could be seen from the increased patronage for the film in many centers.  He said that he will be fully exploiting the film by releasing in B and C centers, though initially It has been branded as a Class film' said R.Chandru.
Chandru also added that the media support for his film had helped many people to watch the film in the first week and now it is only word of mouth publicity which has helped the film.
'I am safe now with the revenues in theatres and satellite rights price obtained for the film. .  Everything that accrues from the sale of satellite rights to the additional revenues in the theatres in the coming weeks is a bonus.  I have already paid my debtors with little profits also' said Chandru.
Prem said that Charminar has brought him good appreciation and also lot of responsibilities.  Meghana Gaonkar said that the press reviews have been of tremendous encouragement to her.
