Starring superstar Mahesh Babu, the film is all set for release on January 11th. Meanwhile, Anil Ravipudi revealed many interesting aspects of the film
Anil said the film unlike his previous films will have a strong story with many emotions incorporated in it. “Besides comedy, Sarileru Neekevvaru will have family emotions and patriotism.”
Anil Ravipudi clarified that Mahesh Babu did not ask to make any changes in the script. “I narrated 35 minutes of story while I was doing F2. He liked it and we developed the story in 3 months time. I gave the full narration only 20 days before starting the shoot.”
The director says he hasn’t officially signed any new film adding he has no qualms in doing medium budget films with young heroes. There were speculations that, Anil may direct Megastar Chiranjeevi. He reacts saying, “If I get that opportunity, I’ll definitely do a film with Chiranjeevi sir.”
He also affirmed that he wants to do a film with Balakrishna as well. “There was a project in proposal with Balakrishna. But, for some reasons it did not materialize. However, I wish to make a film with him. In fact, I want to do films with all the senior heroes.”
Anil asserts that he was tensed initially when release dates of his film and Allu Arjun-Trivikram’s Ala Vaikunthapurramloo were scheduled on same day. “Yes, there was a pressure feel initially. But, I don’t call it as a competition, because the making style of mine is completely different from Trivikram’s. He makes class films, wherein masses love my films.”
