Whether it is a rough patch or a partial slow down, no time stays standard forever and change is the only constant. Especially in Tollywood, right now if we have a look at the big directors, they are all hands full of work with their prestigious projects in the top gear at the production level.
There was a time when Rajamouli hasn’t finalised any film after Baahubali 2, Koratala Siva isn’t taking up any project after Bharat Anu Nenu, Boyapati is pretty free after giving a disaster like Vinaya Vidheya Rama and no star hero is approaching VV Vinayak after watching Intelligent movie. At the same time, Sukumar is still basking in Rangasthalam success but no film took off, while Krish is yet to come out of NTR biopic trauma.
Cut to now, Rajamouli is busy carving #RRR, Koratala is directing Megastar Chiru’s 152nd, Boyapati is directing Balayya again, Vinaya is acting in Seenayya as a hero, Krish started his film with Pawan Kalyan and Sukumar started shooting Allu Arjun’s film already. Also, Puri Jagan is shooting Vijay D’s film in Mumbai. Except for Trivikram, who is fresh from the success of Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo, every big director is almost busy with their respective projects.
Other than the likes of Sreenu Vaitla and Surender Reddy, almost all the big guns are right now super busy. Hope these two will also start their next soon.
