Like Nagarjuna, even we too can’t expect any mass entertaining subjects in his combination with K. Raghavendra Rao. The way this legendary senior director is admiring Nagarjuna is completely different from other Hero-Director relationships. Ask Nag about this and he will say, ‘When I accepted to do ‘Shirdi Sai’ character for this film, makers approached me with an advice to have a glance on old hit movies based on Shirdi Sai Baba. I said them a big no because I have my Raghavendra Rao Garu and he will look after every minute detail.
After the completion of shooting, when I was removing the Shirdi Sai costumes, more than me it was Raghavendra Rao Garu who dropped his tears. When I shaved my beard after nearly two to three weeks, he called me up on phone at around night 11 PM expressing his pain and inability to get out Shirdi Sai characterization. He was so involved in making of this film and I am worried that he can never ever make a social film with me.’ Wish that, Nag & KRR will deliver many more wonderful movies.
