Everyone knows that for a film to create a sensation and a hero to reach the next level of stardom, one needs a never seen before story, creative and novel vision of storytelling from the director.
After the result of Prabhas' Saaho, one gets a feeling that stars are nothing without Jakkana's creativity. Rajamouli with his grand visualization turns normal story into an extraordinary one though he often faces copy allegations.
He then elevates the heroism of heroes to another level by creating powerful villains. All this plays huge part in the films becoming a sensation. Rajamouli powered many heroes to another level of stardom and turned them into super stars with his films.
But after that when the stars and their fans think that it is nothing but their star power and fan following that gave them their new found image and tried to repeat the magic, they got severe shocks.
This happened to NTR whose films after Student No 1, Simhadri and Yamadonga bombed at the box office. Same is the case with Ram Charan who got a shock after Magadheera. Raviteja experienced it after Vikramarkudu and Nani too felt the same after Eega and Sunil fell in the same trap after Maryada Ramanna.
Prabhas too got affected with Vikramarkudu and he once again got affected. Prabhas who attained international stardom with Baahubali is getting shocking reviews for Saaho. Wonder when stars remain grounded and select stories and scripts in a judicious manner.
