Super Star Mahesh Babu was one of the firsts to congratulate Anil Ravipudi after the director’s last outing F2 Fun & Frustration was declared a blockbuster by critics and audience. It was reported that, Mahesh Babu personally called Anil to congratulate him for the success. There were even speculations that, Mahesh asked Anil to come up with a fully entertaining script.
Actually, Anil was one of the writers for Mahesh Babu’s Aagadu. But, he walked out from the project midway, when he got direction chance with Patas. Anil so far directed 4 four films and all of them are big hits.
Anil Ravipudi committed to do a film for 14 Reels Plus Banner and producers are making efforts to rope in Mahesh Babu for the project. It is heard that, Mahesh Babu too is keen to work with Anil Ravipudi and he is said to have put in two proposals before the director.
As per the proposals, Anil Ravipudi should come up with a script. If he feels the script has all commercial ingredients and suits his stature, he will feature in the film or else he will just co-produce the movie with other hero.
Whether Mahesh Babu stars or not I the project, he will jointly produce the film in association with 14 Reels Plus. But, Anil Ravipudi may not miss the opportunity to direct Mahesh Babu. So, he would definitely prepare a winning script.
Mahesh Babu as a producer faced mixed results. His first production venture Srimanthudu in association with Mythri Movie Makers was a blockbuster, wherein his second movie Brahmotsavam was a disaster.
