In a couple of days, Tholiprema director Venkateswara Rao alias Venky Atluri is going to test his luck for the second time as a director with Mr Majnu and he is hoping that the hard work he poured in will be paid off. Here is an interesting snippet about him. Â Â Â
There are many actors in Tollywood who have spoiled their careers hoping that they will get a break one day. Not only they never got any break, but they have no other careers too But director Venky Atluri, who has started as a hero, has quickly realized that it’s not his cup of tea.
After debuting with Sneha Geetham movie in 2009, Venky tried his luck but other films never happened. For more than 3 years, he waited with a hope that acting opportunities will knock doors, but they never did. And finally, he turned to writing and worked with a couple of writers, before debuting as a director after Niharika introduced him to her brother Varun Tej. Earlier Venky is said to have co-written Niharika’s debut web series Muddapappu Aavakai.
Today whether Mr Majnu scores a hit or not, Venky is said to have almost had 2-3 projects in hand.
