King Nagarjuna's 'Annamayya' and 'Sri Ramadasu' are the most memorable devotional flicks in his career. Obviously, when a movie is made with different format, chances of getting negative result at the box office will be more. Fortunately, Nagarjuna's 'Annamayya' and 'Sri Ramadasu' were proved to be super hits at the box office. However, according to critics, both the movies got positive results due to the skin shows of heroines and one or two sexy songs in those films. In 'Annamayya', 'Ele ele maradalaa' was a sexy romantic song. When it comes to 'Sri Ramadasu', 'Chaalu chaalu chaalu' song was a little bit erotic. Ultimately, it is clear that beside 'Bhakthi' factor, there was 'Rakthi' in both the movies, which helped for the success a lot.
Currently, Nagarjuna is doing another devotional flick 'Shirdi Sai' and is playing the title role of this movie. Since this movie is being made on the life history of 'Shirdi Saibaba', no chances of any mass masala and exposing by the heroines is expected. Subsequently, there is only one factor, that should make the movie a super hit and that is the 'devotion'. Let us wish the movie will become a super hit at the box office.
