Venkatesh Explains Why He Picked Up ‘Rana Naidu’ Despite Profanity!
Much-awaited web series ‘Rana Naidu’ is all set to arrive on Netflix from 10th March. This action-packed series is an Indian adaptation of ‘Ray Donovan’ and the trailer which came out a few weeks back created a lot of buzz on this intense crime drama. Both Rana and Venkatesh are promoting the series aggressively on social media and they are giving interviews to known media outlets.
As we can see from the trailer, there is a lot of profanity, brutality and boldness in the series. Venkatesh is known for his family movies and when asked about the reason behind picking up such a project, this is what Venky had to say. He told, “The younger generation that might have seen me only in dramas such as Drushyam or the comedies F2 and F3 will be surprised at the character’s bold moves. I am glad Rana and Netflix convinced me. If I do not take risks, I would not be challenging myself as an actor. Since I was doing something different, I wanted to jump in and see how it looks. But I asked the directors to tone down some stuff.”
Talking about the preparation he went through for ‘Naga Naidu’ character, the senior hero said, “I worked on my expressions. Naga is unbelievable. For example, there is a scene where his wife opens the door and when you see him looking at her, you do not know what he is thinking and if you can trust him. There are many facets to this guy, from being humble to being messy. Some portions might even make you root for this bad guy.”
Talking about his relationship with Rana in the web series, Venkatesh stated, “We do not share a typical father-son relationship in this story wherein I, as a father character, sing songs, raise a child, he gets into trouble and then I have to protect him.”
Kangana Ranaut’s Sensational Comments On Gen Z!

Giving more details about GenZ, Kangana said that they are into using phones and love Starbucks and Avocado toast but can’t afford to buy a home. She also said that they rent costly clothes to impress others on social media but they have no dare to commit to marrying.
“Gen Z… HA HA their limbs and legs are like sticks, they spend most of their time on phones than actually interacting, observing or reading, they are incapable of consistency and seriously believe that they should simply be given the post of Boss who they don’t respect because their Boss believes in discipline and came up hard way and GenZ only respect quick success,” Kangana said on Instagram story.
On the work front, Kangana Ranaut is busy with Chandramukhi 2. Director P.Vasu, who helmed the original version that featured Superstar Rajinikanth and Jyothika is directing the film. The sequel is carrying high expectations.
Two Hit Directors Looking At Senior Heroes Once Again!
Gopichandh Malineni has a good track record. Barring ‘Winner’, most of his movies did well at the box office. Movies like ‘Don Seenu’, ‘Krack’ and ‘Balupu’ with Ravi Teja were very good hits. His recent outing ‘Veera Simha Reddy’ turned out to be a profitable venture as well.
On the other hand, there is Bobby Kolli who made his debut with Ravi Teja’s ‘Power’ and directed hit movies like ‘Jai Lava Kusa’ and ‘Venky Mama’. His recent film ‘Waltair Veerayya’ turned out to be a huge hit and ended up in a lot of profits.
Interestingly, both these directors who scored hits this Sankranti season are yet to announce their next projects. Apparently, they are not able to find young heroes to work with. Most of the younger lot are focusing on pan-Indian projects and they are committed to one or two films already. Both Bobby and Gopichandh are known for their commercial entertainers that are well packaged but run on a predictable note.
Sources say that they have no option but to look toward senior heroes again. If reports are to be believed, they are aiming to exchange their respective last film heroes. Apparently, Gopichandh Malineni is trying to convince Megastar Chiranjeevi with a compelling story while Bobby is trying to do the same with Nandamuri Balakrishna. If this doesn’t work out, they have no other option but to turn towards their trusted hero Ravi Teja once again.
We need to wait and see who becomes the hero of their next projects. It looks like the options are quite limited for these two hit directors.
