ANR once opined that an actor who has better skills can survive while the lot with just ‘backing’ will have to leave the arena sooner. Though many thought that hero Sumanth from Akkineni compound belongs to the mentioned ‘lot’, he proved himself otherwise with concept-oriented films.
Long gaps made him lose to younger heroes, but Sumanth is slowly getting at it again with films like Malli Raava, an average fare which was appreciated by many, yet failed to attract the audience. His new film Subramanyapuram too looks promising with intriguing trailer. Coming to his other important film NTR biopic, Sumanth is playing his grandfather ANR’s role and he already got full marks as best fit to appear as ANR.
When NTR biopic is expected to get a special identity for Sumanth in ANR’s role and recognition among present generation, many are advising him to wait for this biopic to come out to theaters before his other films do. As NTR biopic has a large release and Sumanth as ‘Akkineni’ is sure to get a better reach after release, letting his films Idam Jagat and Subramanyapuram out to theaters after ‘NTR’, should be a good move to attract more audience. Well, let us wait to see how Sumanth uses the advantage of playing a legend in an eminent biopic!
