Will Venky Cross Second Movie Syndrome?

In the recent past, many directors had stumbled with their second movies after making impressive debut.

Tollywood pundits have come up with a name for this trend – second movie syndrome.

Will Venky Atluri overcome this second movie syndrome and deliver another hit with Akhil Akkineni starrer “Mr.Majnu”?

Venky Atluri made debut with Varun Tej starrer “Toli Prema” which was a decent hit at the box-office.

He has made “Mr.Manjnu” as his second film but the story of the movie seems to be too clichéd.

Going by the trailer, it is clear that the film is all about a hero who doesn’t believe in the institution of marriage but likes to have only ‘love relationship’.

Longest relationship he had with a girl is just a month. Such old stories were seen in many movies that include Ram Charan starrer “Orange”, which incidentally bombed at the box-office.

Given the clichéd storyline, trade pundits are curious to see how Venky Atluri would surprise us? If he does deliver a hit with this, he will be flooded with big offers. His career would be set.

The film is also crucial for Akhil’s career. He has placed lot of hopes on this movie to get first hit.
