Again, that was an exception and not a rule. Surprisingly, though, his brother Pawan Kalyan co-produced Chal Mohan Ranga in 2018 – a move that nobody could have predicted three years ago. I’m guessing the equation won’t change for Chiranjeevi’s future films, as well. 150, only Ram Charan – his son – has been given the job of backing his projects. Since the return of Chiranjeevi to the big screen in 2017, with Khaidi No. The money stays within the family, and there’s the big factor of trust.
Vishal’s method seems easier, but that’s not the only way.įathers producing films for their sons to headline and vice-versa has been the norm in the Indian movie industry for a long time. An actor-producer working in his own project is on the sets every day, and gets a complete picture about how his money is being spent. A producer gets some kind of creative control in the projects being churned out. He’s produced more than half a dozen films so far, and starred in all as the lead. More often than not, actors who turn producers get involved in movies where they play the lead. He called the film industry his farmland. Samuthirakani and producer Venkat S Boyanapalli also spoke.Why do actors turn producers? Is it just another avenue to earn money or a way to give back to the same medium? I vaguely remember Kamal Haasan once saying that a farmer invests all the money he earns into the farm again because that’s what he does for a living. I would also like to share screen space with Sivakarthikeyan, and it will definitely happen with the right script.’ Working with Mani Ratnam sir has been my long run dream, and I am his hard core fan. If my prediction is right, we can soon see the collaboration of Tamil and Telugu heroes working together in many projects. These days, Tamil movies are doing a greater business in Telugu regions.

I wasn’t able to change my physique for the dual roles as both the portions of these characters were shot at the same time. I am sure that everyone will love this film, and I will meet you all after the success of this movie. I believe with hopes I have given my best to entertain Tamil audiences here. When I listened to the script of this film, I suggested that it can be made in Tamil as well. Henceforth, I waited for the right project to make a comeback in Tamil. Later, some of my movies didn’t do well here. After the success of Naan E, the fans here always welcome me with warmness. I have always shared an emotional bonding with the Tamil movie.
In all my interviews, whenever asked about what prompted me to become an actor, I would openly admit that it all happened after watching several movies of Kamal Haasan sir and Mani Ratnam sir. He is now a reigning star in Tollywood and is busy with multiple projects.
And now, I am excited for him in all the Telugu movies. Nani said, ‘Whenever I used to shoot in Chennai, I would never leave the city without visiting Samuthirakani sir. I am sure that everyone will love this film.’ Director Rahul had done a wide research pertaining to each element in this film and we have given our best into our respective departments. While acting in this film, I wanted to know more details and information about Devadasis. The film will give an experience of an exact Tamil movie. Later, I was surprised to see the producer announce that he is making the film in Tamil as well, and I was so happy about it. While working in other regional movies, I felt that respective movie should have released in Tamil, and when reading the script of this film, I strongly felt the same. It’s because I was born and brought up in Tamil Nadu. Sai Pallavi said, ‘Whenever I read a script, the visuals come to my mind as a Tamil movie.
