Saregama Takes Kiran Abbavaram's Reality Audio, Reportedly For Rs 3.5 Crore
Kiran Abbavaram's first film as director has sold its music to Saregama for about Rs 3.5 crore, Telugu outlets report. The first song is out on the label.
Saregama has bought the audio rights to Reality, the Telugu film Kiran Abbavaram is directing as well as leading, for around Rs 3.5 crore. 123Telugu, Tupaki and NTV Telugu all reported the deal on Tuesday, 27 October. Neither the label nor the producers have put out a figure of their own.
123Telugu called it one of the solid audio deals for a film led by a mid-tier hero. Tupaki tied the price to the response to the film's first song.
The label's name is already on the music. The first single, composed by Bheems Ceciroleo and sung by Vaikom Vijayalakshmi with lyrics by Sanare, came out on 22 October, and its streaming release carries a 2026 Saregama India copyright line.
Reality is Abbavaram's first film as a director, and he also wrote the story and screenplay. Sudhakar Chaganti produces it under the Joy Films banner, with Suresh Yerra as co-producer. Devika Bhat plays the female lead, alongside Sharat Kumar, Sai Kumar and Rohini. The film is set for a Christmas release on 25 December.
