UTV buys Akshay Kumar's 'Joker' Global Rights for INR 40 crores

\'Rowdy Rathore\' of Akshay Kumar is doing very well at the box office. It has crossed the limit of 100 crores and is still doing well. Despite his two hits in a row (Housefull 2 & Rowdy Rathore), his next film \'Joker\' has not been sold at a very high price.

The director of the film Shirish Kunder has made this film in a controlled budget so that he can make profit.

It is reported that this film has been sold to UTV. According to a trade expert, \"UTV is excited about the film\'s prospects. Unlike Akshay\'s earlier offerings, this one didn\'t come with too heavy a price tag. UTV has bought the global rights of Joker at a price less than 40 crore and that includes theatrical, satellite, home video, overseas and all other rights. Recovering that amount should be a cakewalk.\"

Hope this film too does well at the box office. However, if you see the result of Shirish Kunder\'s previous film \'Tees Maar Khan\' with Akshay Kumar, it raises doubt about its success.
