Akkineni Nagarjuna’s latest devotional venture ‘Shirdi Sai’ is all set to release worldwide this Thursday. The actor will be seen in the role of Shirdi Sai Baba in the movie. Here is the SWOT analysis of the movie

Strength
Unlike the normal commercial movies, regular movie goers are curious about the movie which might increase the audience base.The makers are doing good promotion for the movie which will help in case the movie manages good talk
Sai Baba is the favourite god of many people in AP which might immensely help the movie.

Weakness
Many movies on Sai Baba which came in the past have excelled and are considered as epics. The comparison would obviously come. We will have to see if it matched up to the expectations. Songs of the movie are not so success as Nagarjuna’s previous devotional ventures like Annamaya and Sri Ramadasu.

Opportunity
With Srimannarayana getting subdued, the movie will have no competition till the release of Life is Beautiful on September 14th. The Makers have managed to get excellent release for the movie on par with any commercial movie.The publicity of the movie is best in recent times

Threat
There are huge expectations on the movie as the duo of Raghavender Rao and Nagarjuna had delivered successful devotional movies like Annamaya and Sri Ramadasu. We will have to see if the movie lives up to the expectations.
Also a devotional movie requires extended long run as it is mainly based on family audience. But this chances may be hampered by the release of Sekhar Kammula’s Life is Beautiful which is also carrying good expectations in A class audience
