Dil Raju to propel Karunakaran

Dil Raju to Relaunch Veteran Director Karunakaran with Ashish Reddy in the Lead

Top producer Dil Raju, known for his astute judgment and successful track record, is gearing up for a new wave of films in 2025. He's been diligently working on a carefully curated slate of projects, and the latest news points towards a strategic collaboration with veteran director Karunakaran.

Karunakaran, renowned for his sensible storytelling and ability to craft romantic entertainers, has a string of hits to his credit, including Tholi Prema, Vasu, Ullasamga Utsahamga, and Darling. While he has also faced a few setbacks, he remains a respected figure in Telugu cinema.

His last directorial venture, Tej: I Love You, released in 2018. However, his last successful film, Darling with Prabhas, was a significant box office hit in 2004.

Dil Raju, impressed by a script narrated by Karunakaran, has given his nod for the film. The project is a romantic entertainer, and the lead role will be played by Ashish Reddy, Dil Raju's nephew. Ashish is currently on a break but is set to make a comeback with two new films in 2025.

This collaboration marks a significant comeback for Karunakaran, and the combination of his storytelling prowess with Ashish Reddy's fresh energy promises to deliver a compelling cinematic experience.
