Ravi Teja’s ‘Disco Raja’ is all set to be commenced its shoot this month. The film is to be made as a sci-fi thriller with period elements.

Produced by Ram Talluri and directed by Vi Anand, it features Payal Rajput of ‘RX100’ and Nabha Natesh of ‘Nannu Dochukunduvate’ as the female lead.

There is a talk that the producer asked the director to slash down the budget as Ravi Teja’s recent three movies bombed at the box-office.

This is producer Ram Talluri’s second film with Ravi Teja after ‘Nela Ticket’.

The second part of the biopic NTR is due for release, and with the first part turning out to be a disaster, one would expect the makers to focus more on promoting the second part. However, they are facing a big headache now.

The posters of the second part along with the audio and the ‘look’ of personalities in the second part were released along with the promotions for the first part.

As for the trailer, it was made as one complete whole including both parts. Now, there is no novelty aspect to the second part and the producers are wracking their brains trying to come up with something for the second part that is not already in public domain.

Had the first part been successful, their task would have been easy. Now, they have to get audiences interested in the second part as well as come up with fresh content to promote it.

A love track for formality, five songs and three fights, mandatory ‘item song’, massive elevation of the lead character’s heroism etc are some of the ingredients in the standard ‘formula’ films designed by top commercial directors such as Puri Jagan, VV Vinayak and Boyapati Srinu.

However, as times change, people and their lifestyles change too along with their interests.

As legendary director Singeetham Srinivasa Rao once said, “It is very important for a filmmaker to stay abreast of the times failing which he will become irrelevant.”

Vinayak has given two shockers in the form of Akhil and Intelligent.

Puri Jagan is finding it tough to even get big heroes to listen to his scripts and as for Boyapati, Vinaya Vidheya Rama has been labeled as a serious insult to the intelligence of the audiences.

Looking at the box-office response to these films makes one wonder: Is it over for formula directors?

After announcing the title, the first look of ‘SITA’ has been unveiled marking Republic Day.The lead pair, Bellamkonda Sai Sreenivas and Kajal Aggarwal appear as a lovable couple in the first look poster.

It’s altogether a new subject that hero Sreenivas did not attempt so far.
