Teja opens up about Sita re-shoot

0

Teja is one Tollywood director who is outspoken and has a frank stand about his films before their release. During the pre-release event of his next release Sita, Teja spoke frankly saying that he attempted a good film and the result completely depends on how the audience accepts Sita. Teja even said that he had to re-shoot some of the episodes after star writers Paruchuri Brothers suggested changes after watching the film.

“After completing the shoot, I showed the footage to Paruchuri Brothers. They suggested me changes and I removed some scenes, added few new scenes for the film. I don’t have great judgment for films. I did a film which I feel is 90% good. The audience will have to say if it is good or not. I look intelligent after wearing spectacles but I don’t have an intelligent brain. I am addicted to films and irrespective of hits and flops, I will continue doing movies” said Teja.

Sita features Bellamkonda Sreenivas and Kajal in the lead roles. The film is hitting the screens this Friday.

Uday Kiran’s biopic – Kaboye Alludu

The news that maverick director Teja is planning to make a biopic on Telugu actor Uday Kiran has become a talking point among everyone. Interestingly, it is heard that Teja has registered a sensational title in film chamber.

As per the reports, ‘Kaboye Alludu’ is said to be the title in consideration for this biopic.

It is well known that Uday Kiran was supposed to marry Megastar Chiranjeevi’s daughter Sushmitha. But the marriage was called off due to unknown reasons. Since then, Uday’s career hit a rough patch.

There were many rumours in those days that Mega family is behind Uday’s sudden downfall. Also, after he committed suicide, there were many slogans against Chiranjeevi.

Now, all eyes are on Teja to see if he dares to touch this part in the biopic. The registered title suggests that the biopic will primarily revolve around Uday’s career before and the after the marriage proposal with Chiranjeevi’s daughter.

As Teja is the one who introduced Uday and worked with him for a few films, he might be the one who knows very well about Uday’s tragedy and the reasons behind his sudden downfall. So, will he rake up a controversy by showing the real facts behind the Uday Kiran – Mega family episode ? Let’s wait and see.

4

Sensational director Teja tasted a series of debacles and he bounced back to the league with Nene Raju Nene Mantri after a gap of ten years. Impressed with his work, Victory Venkatesh asked him to pen an interesting script and this is how Aata Nade Veta Nade happened. The ace director has been approached to direct the prestigious NTR’s biopic at the same time which kept him puzzled. He wanted to work for both the projects simultaneously as he is not in a mood to lose any of the biggies.

After working for two months, he realized it is impossible to work on two projects at the same time. It is during this time, he decided to step out of Venky’s film and the project has been shelved with Teja’s exit. He shifted his focus towards NTR biopic but it is due to the creative differences, Teja forced himself to walk out of the project. Within a gap of just a month, Teja lost his luck and walked out of two prestigious projects.

But the ace director is quite confident on his comeback soon. While Venky shifted his focus towards Anil Ravipudi’s F2, Balakrishna and his team have been in hunt for the right director to helm NTR. Teja is expected to announce his next film soon.

Venky – Teja film, delayed or shelved ?

2

Director Teja announced a film with Victory Venkatesh last year and it was formally launched a couple of months ago. The regular shooting was supposed to commence by this time, but that didn’t happen till now. It is heard that Teja is not yet completed the script work for some part of the film.

Meanwhile, Venky signed a film each for directors Anil Ravipudi and Bobby. Both these films are likely to commence later this year. On the other side, Teja and Balakrishna are planning to release NTR biopic in 2018 at any cost.

So, speculations are rife in industry circles that Teja – Venky project is likely to be put in back burner. However, the production denied the news and said the regular shooting will commence from last week of April.

We have to wait and see if the project is really happening after a string of delays or is it getting shelved due to the other commitments of Teja and Venkatesh.

Both Vidya Balan and Paresh Rawal had narration, but they are yet to sign the dotted line. So, Teja is waiting for their nod to complete the casting process.

Is Teja sailing in two boats ?

1

There is a saying – You cannot sail in two boats at a time. Director Teja is doing exactly the same. It is well known that he bagged two big projects after Nene Raju Nene Mantri. One film is prestigious NTR biopic and the other is much awaited Victory Venkatesh’s film.

Unfortunately, both these projects couldn’t start rolling as they were initially planned for. NTR biopic was supposed to kick off by this time. But, the extensive post production work has delayed the start. There were reports that the formal launch of the film will be held in March. That too looks doubtful given that there is still plenty of pre production work left for the team.

Due to NTR biopic, Teja initially decided to defer Venky’s project. Later, there was some change in plans and it has been confirmed that Venky’s film will start rolling first. As he is concentrating on NTR biopic, this project also got delayed till now.

It is little rare these days that a director juggles between two different projects at a time. Teja is trying his best to put foot on two boats at a time. It remains to be seen if his juggling act impacts the quality of work for both these prestigious films.

Venky finally gets his lady ?

0

The quest for the leading lady of star hero Victory Venkatesh’s upcoming film with director Teja at the helm seems to have finally ended with Shriya Saran.

According to the latest reports, Shriya has been finalized as the heroine opposite Venky after Bollywood actress Aditi Rao Hydari has opted out of the project due to her packed schedule. Teja and his team considered several options before zeroing on the experienced Shriya who is currently on a rebound in her second innings with substantial offers.

Shriya and Venky shared screen space for several films earlier.

Tentatively titled as Aata Naade Veta Naade, the film will be jointly produced by Anil Sunkara and Suresh Babu. The regular shooting will commence shortly.

That is Suresh Babu!

1

Out of many successful producers in Tollywood, Suresh Babu occupies a unique position for his dynamism and the entire film fraternity admires him for taking his dad D.Ramanaidu’s legacy forward. Suresh Babu is also quite clear on what he wants from a film and its crew and perfectly articulates it. Now, he has made director Teja go off the latter’s regular working style!

Suresh Babu’s has signed up dynamic director Teja for the next film with Victory Venkatesh and Teja is well known for not writing scripts well in advance. He usually goes on the flow by writing the script after hitting the sets. But Suresh Babu has insisted on Teja to work for the script for nearly a year. The similar thing happened for Rana’s Nene Raju Nene Mantri and the result was quite evident.

It is interesting to see that while many producers fall for director’s whims and fancies , only Suresh has proven time and again that he is a tough task master.
