As it is a human tendency to get attracted to negative issues soon, first, lets point out the negative points in Lion.  

Minus points:

Debut director with a senior star hero:

After a super success like Legend, the expectations on Balayya movie would automatically be more. So at this time, how far it is correct for Balayya to believe in a new director?

Music:

Manisharma is considered as an outdated music director in the industry. No great talk was heard on the music album.  

Satellite rights:

The satellite rights of the movie are just sold for 5.5 crores which is less than a young hero Ram's Pandaga Chesko, whose rights were sold for 6.5 crores.  

Plus points:

Balayya: Lion is a film which is being made by Balayya after the super success of Legend and also after he was elected as a MLA. So, the expectations are much more than usual. .

Heroine controversies: 

Firstly it is Radhika Apte who is a major credit of the film. Not only because of her presence in Legend,but also because of her scandal controversy in recent times, she has become the talk of the industry. So, specially the youth might turn to the theatres to watch this beauty on screen

On the other hand, Trisha was engaged to Varun and later announced her break up with him .So this is another controversy which might add up to the film.

So except, the lead actor and actresses, there is no such great hope on the film. So the Balayya fans are tensed to know the final result as it is going to be out in just few hours.
