He entered the film industry after watching ‘Okkadu’. He has been doing films in a slow and steady manner and delivered a blockbuster.
Now, he got the opportunity to direct Superstar’s film. It is a golden chance for sure. He is eagerly waiting to kickstart the film as soon as the lockdown restrictions are ended. He is none other than director Parasuram.
He gave an exclusive interview
Are you in Hyderabad or in your native place Narsipatnam?
I’m staying here. Usually, I go there on every Ugadi but I could not go this time because of the lockdown.
The people who wait with patience will get good things. It seems you got a very good project after waiting for a long time after a blockbuster like ‘Geetha Govindam’
Yes. I am doing Super Star Mahesh Babu film.
You must be very excited, right?
Yes. I came to the industry after watching ‘Okkadu’. I had a strong wish to work with him right from the time I worked as an assistant. It is going to be fulfilled now.
Is this the next script for you after ‘Geetha Govindam’?
Yes. I prepared this script while I was working on ‘Geetha Govindam’. There were unexpected gaps as Mahesh Babu garu went abroad and I went to my native place, etc.
How many scripts did you prepare after ‘Geetha Govindam’. Is this the only one?
No, I readied three scripts. One for Mahesh Babu, the second one is ‘Nageswara Rao’ for Chaitu. The third one is a lady oriented script.
You have done good films till now. Fan moments, hero image and commercial calculations did not obstruct you. How are you going to deal with such things now?
It’s not that I can’t write the scenes and dialogues that bring goosebumps to fans. Those things were not needed for my films till now. But it is the time for me. You will watch the other side of me.
Did you work for ‘Pokiri’ with your brother, guru Puri Jagannadh?
No. I worked with him for a couple of films before Pokiri. I’ve joined in other director’s team giving a gap and I missed ‘Pokiri’.
The human relationships, family emotions that appear in your films will be there in Mahesh Babu film as well?
Everything will be there. It is a good subject. That’s the reason why I did not leave the subject. It will become a very good film. All the elements will be there.
Missing the film with Chaitu?
I did not miss it. I will do Chaitu’s film. It is going to be the best subject in his career. Chaitu and I have good clarity about it.
Why did you write a lady oriented subject in between these films?
A good point flashed in my mind. I developed into a good script. I may do it someday.
You are busy with full script work in this corona time. Isn’t it?
I’m working on the script. I know cooking right from my bachelor days. I help my wife. We have two kids, we have to take care of them. So I’m quite busy with these things not much thinking about the lockdown period.
Do you watch films, web series?
I don’t watch web series on par with movies. I love to watch Telugu and Hindi films regularly. I’m just waiting for the lockdown period to end, to start my dream project.
