V Vijayendra Prasad is one of the top writers of Indian cinema. His contribution for his son SS Rajamouli’s films has been immense and he himself penned the scripts of all the films directed by SS Rajamouli. Bhajrangi Bhaijaan was a sensation in Bollywood last year and Vijayendra Prasad penned the script. He even penned the screenplay for Vijay’s recent blockbuster Mersal. However the star writer failed badly when it came to direction.
Vijayendra Prasad tested his luck thrice as a director and all the films left the makers in hefty losses. Now Vijayendra Prasad decided to concentrate completely as a writer and he decided not to direct films in future. “It is better to do my job as a writer. I realized that I am not a good director after three films. Will concentrate completely on writing from now” revealed Vijayendra Prasad during a recent interview. Vijayendra Prasad is currently working on Rajamouli’s next project which will start rolling early next year.
