Director Kalyan Krishna made a dream debut with Nagarjuna’s 2015 hit Soggade Chinni Nayana. The family entertainer emerged as a blockbuster at box office and Kalyan Krishna set sights on making a solid career in Tollywood.
After taking considerable time, he came up with another family drama Ra Randoyi Veduka Chuddam. The film couldn’t repeat a similar box office success like Soggade Chinni Nayana, but managed to win appreciation from family audience. As a director, Kalyan Krishna bagged brownie points for his narration.
When his career in on the right track, Kalyan Krishna chose Ravi Teja for his next film Nela Ticket which released this Friday. The film opened to a very dismal talk and embarrassing reviews.
The poor performance of the film is surely going to impact Kalyan Krishna’s track record and will also play a huge part in getting him offers for his next projects. He was supposed to team up with Nagarjuna for the sequel of Soggade Chinni Nayana, but it has been put on hold due to some script issues.
So, now the question is whether Nagarjuna goes ahead with the project and will he deter it further.
By opting to direct Ravi Teja, who is poor form, Kalyan Krishna seems to have barked up the wrong tree at a crucial point in his career.
