Filmmaker Meher Ramesh is highly unpopular among the industry folks and film enthusiasts. With biggest disasters like Shakti, Shadow and Kantri, Meher gave a huge shock to audiences. Having arrived from Puri Jagannath’s school, he went to debut with NTR’s film, bankrolled by legendary producer Ashwini Dutt. Everyone assumed that he will make big in the industry, but it all shattered with 3 huge disasters.
With a view to beat Pokiri and Magadheera, the director made Kantri and Shakti but those films have yielded huge losses to Dutt. His next film ‘Shadow’ with Victory Venkatesh ended up as a colossal dud at box-office. Even though Billa with Prabhas did decently well, he couldn’t claim the credit as it was a remake movie
After the result of Shadow, no producer and actor in the industry dared to work with Meher Ramesh again. So, he has been with no work from last six years. But, Ramesh managed to do some ad commercials and PR work for Super star Mahesh Babu. Finally, his association with Mahesh seems to be working in favour of him.
According to our latest reports, Mahesh has chosen Meher Ramesh to distribute his next film ‘Sarileru Neekevvaru’ in a major region in Telugu states.
If the reports are to be believed, Meher has grabbed the distributor rights of Sarileru for Guntur region, which is one of the biggest business areas. Based on Mahesh’s recommendation, producers Dil Raju and Anil Ravipudi have reportedly given away the distribution for a reasonable price. If this attempt succeeds, Meher may settle down as a distributor in the coming days.
