Generally, a film’s title is fixed in orientation with hero’s characterization or the actual core element in story. Accordingly, ‘Mister’ is an apt title locked based on hero Varun Tej’s role in the film. This is the story from front but when we analyze ‘Mister’ from behind the scenes, the movie is a litmus test for ‘Mister’ Srinu Vytla.
Varun Tej is never rated as a star hero given his diverse script selection which never let him into an image trap. For Vytla, the case is different. He is and he was one of the top most directors in Telugu worked with almost all star heroes from Chiranjeevi, Nagarjuna to Mahesh Babu, Junior NTR. Having lost the hard earned name and fame with ‘Bruce Lee’ and ‘Aagadu,’ this film ‘Mister’ is a do-or-die situation for Vytla on professional and personal front.
More than a Varun Tej film, ‘Mister’ should be seen as a Srinu Vytla movie. Tomorrow’s commercial Box Office result of ‘Mister’ is more crucial for Vytla career because a hit or flop won’t matter much for Varun.
