The satellite has fetched a huge amount and with this film it will be recovered looking at the break up of collections. It has performed superbly in areas which signal good television ratings. There are some films which sell for 8 or 10 crore and can be hit at the box office but when they come on television there are no ratings and recovery becomes a distant dream. Sultan despite huge price will have no such issues.
