Sarileru Neekevvaru: Mahesh Babu 2.0

Okkadu, Pokiri, Athadu, Khaleja and Dookudu are very special films for super star Mahesh Babu who completed silver jubilee of films with Maharshi. Except for Khaleja and Athadu, all the other films turned out to be remarkable hits. Still, Mahesh Babu and his fans will have special place for these films.

Okkadu showed mass angle in Mahesh Babu who then was lauded as next big thing in industry. Pokiri, as we all know, was an industry hit, though the film initially received divide talk. Mahesh Babu’s mass appeal, powerful dialogues by Puri favored the film to become a super hit.

Mahesh awed one and all with his charming looks and action-packed performance in Athadu. However, Khaleja stands out as the best among all of Mahesh Babu films for a reason. When Mahesh was criticized for his routine acting and doing similar kind of films, Khaleja brought out comedy angle in him. Mahesh’s mannerisms and one-liners were appreciated by critics, though the film bombed at BO owing to some reasons, including high budget and delay in release.

Dookudu gave much needed break for Mahesh Babu, when he was going through lean phase. What’s more, Mahesh Babu’s hilarious performance was equally lauded by critics and audience.

Meanwhile, Mahesh Babu scored few hits to super hits. But, he is coming up with routine films of late. However, his next film Sarileru Neekevvaru to be directed by Anil Ravipudi is going to be another special film for Mahesh Babu, as per reliable sources.

In fact, Anil Ravipudi films are high on comedy. He provided break to heroes like Kalyan Ram, Sai Dharam Tej, Raviteja and Venkatesh. Now, he took the responsibility of showing Mahesh Babu in never seen before hilarious avatar. From his body language to dialogue delivery, Sarileru Neekevvaru will show Mahesh Babu in a way fans want to see him.

It is also learnt that, Mahesh Babu with feedback from various corners, suggested Anil to take an extra care on his character in the film. Anil who feels it as an honor to work with star like Mahesh Babu at the early stage of career has altered the script to give extra thrills to the fans of the super star.
