83 years of Tollywood history witnessed many legendary directors shot to great fame with their master pieces. They received great honours and awards from state and central governments and private reputed universities and authorities.
Even then there is one thing that disheartens everyone and all. These captains of the ships, could never overcome the craze and fervour of star heroes who always get honoured and rewarded for having innumerable fans associations and hardcore fans.
As a matter of fact, directors face tough times for delivering two to three flops in a row, irrespective of their super successful track record. In contrast, heroes can bounce back and gain lot of fame in spite of delivering non-stop flop films over the years.
However, things appeared to be changing now. There are some directors who throw challenge to superstars these days with their tremendous success rate. Even then, they can't get diehard fans as heroes do. Of course, there may be hyped publicity, paid articles, tweets by some senior directors having comic and psychic character might support them more than like anything and especially may target heroes, even then, the directors are striving hard in attaining the craze of heroes. Some time ago, a superstar proudly and delightfully said, " We were blessed in our previous birth such that we have become heroes in this birth." And the present generation's directors are also set to give the same statement, getting numerous organized fans associations. Incidentally, they are liked by fans of all heroes. The only thing to be done by the directos,who want to defeat heroes in craze, is to avoid unnecessary means of publicity through unwanted personalities and media.
