Once upon a time when directors like EVV Satyanarayana, SV Krishna Reddy were in full swing, Jagapathi Babu evolved as Sobhan Babu 2 for Tollywood. Later on with market calculations going faster than expected and commercial success is dictating the terms for film industry, the family hero lost the market and touch. Today, JB is no more a favorite hero for many producer and directors. With time, he too is changing and now JB will be seen in a complete changeover becoming a villain of Balakrishna in the film under direction of Boayapati Srinu.
To be seen in three different getups in this film, Jagapathi Babu also happens to be the best friend of Balakrishna. ‘To stop the flow of bad films from my side, I started taking care and this character is like a rebirth for me. I made substantial changes to my body language and there is huge substance in the story. I am sure people will accept me in this role because I am taking care of my self,’ Jagapathi Babu said.
