Director Srinu Vaitla, who has been written off by audiences as well as critics after he had churned out three back to back disasters, has reportedly gone back to his lucky hero, Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja in his bid to revive his career. The duo has earlier teamed up for three successful films.
It may be recalled that Vaitla made his directorial debut with Ravi Teja starrer ‘Nee Kosam (1999)’. The film went on to win accolades and numerous awards. Later, the duo teamed up for two commercial hits – Venky (2004) and Dubai Seenu (2007). Both went on to become stars and ruled box office for a few years. Now, both are struggling, Vaitla’s situation is far worse.
As per latest reports, Vaitla has got the nod of Ravi Teja for a new film and that he is currently busy giving finishing touches to the script. The project is likely to go on floors in October, after Ravi Teja completes ‘Raja The Great’ and ‘Touch Chesi Chudu’.
It is puzzling that Ravi Teja, who himself is not in his best form, has decided to work with Vaitla, who has been passing through the worst phase of his career. The ‘Kick’ actor probably still has faith in the director who gave him a classic comedy like ‘Venky’.
Ravi Teja – Srinu Vaitla would have looked like a lethal combination a few years ago. Hope the duo strikes back with a big hit and reinforce their respective stardom.
