Arundhati producer busy with interesting script. Renowned Telugu producer Shyam Prasad Reddy, the creative force behind blockbuster films like "Ankusam," "Ammoru," and "Arundhati," is set to make a comeback after a prolonged hiatus. Having taken a break from filmmaking due to a lack of compelling story ideas, Shyam Prasad Reddy is now diligently working on a new script that is slated to hit the floors next year, according to reliable sources.

The producer, who found success on the small screen with programs like "Jabardast," decided to take a step back from the film industry until the right story captured his imagination. During this time, he collaborated with his daughter on successful television ventures, showcasing his versatility beyond the silver screen.

Shyam Prasad Reddy's impact on Telugu cinema is undeniable, having spearheaded iconic films such as "Ankusam," which rejuvenated interest in cop stories during the 1980s. He also brought socio-fantasies back into the limelight with "Ammoru," featuring Soundarya and Suresh, centered around the theme of black magic. Notably, he enlisted the talents of glam actress Ramya Krishna to portray a goddess in the film, a decision that proved to be a resounding success.

Despite a setback with the Chiranjeevi-starrer "Anji," which fell short of expectations at the box office, Shyam Prasad Reddy made a triumphant return with the 2009 hit "Arundhati." Starring Anushka Shetty, the film redefined horror flicks in Tollywood, garnering acclaim not only in Andhra Pradesh but also making waves in Tamil Nadu and other states.

In the current cinematic landscape, where supernatural thrillers like "Virupaksha" and "Maa Oori Polimera 2" are thriving, Shyam Prasad Reddy aims to capitalize on the popularity of the horror thriller genre for his upcoming project. While he may miss the collaboration with his favorite director, the late Kodi Ramakrishna, he is reportedly considering working with an upcoming director to continue delivering compelling films in the future. As fans eagerly anticipate his return, Shyam Prasad Reddy's comeback promises to be a noteworthy chapter in Telugu cinema.
