Lessons from Komaram Puli

Komaram Puli is Pawan Kalyan's recent release after a lot of gap and his fans were waiting with bated breath. Backed with the team that made Kushi, which was a superhit, Komaram Puli had huge expectations. One of the die hard fans of Pawan, tells me that it is a dud. Reasons? Several. You would find some here.

I have few takeaways for you.

• Any brand or communication fails when it tries to build your expectations to insane level
  
• Too much delay in arriving at the threshold(3 years in this case), too much hype(I happened to watch the promos) might cause your audience, read customers, to expect a lot and nothing that is offered is acceptable
• The solution can be to hold back on the expectations and maintain a minimum level of curiosity and pitch when your customer expects it
• Holding back too much in your hand, in haze, makes me lose interest and when the actual thing happens, it hardly matters to me anymore
