Star director Koratala Siva is under huge pressure right now. He scored his first flop in the form of ‘Acharya’ in 2022. Though his previous blockbusters showcase his quality, the level of disaster ‘Acharya’ became stunned many. The money was returned to the distributors and there were a lot of news over Chiru blaming Koratala for the movie’s failure at the box office.
He got a golden chance in the form of #NTR30 but it is Tarak’s immediate film after ‘RRR’ and there is added pressure on the ‘Srimanthudu’ director now. Also, he needs to prove himself and showcase that ‘Acharya’ is just a blip in form and that he can deliver super hits. In order to make the script perfect, he spent a lot of time at the writing table.
Despite all the outrage from Tarak fans, he took ample time to ready the script. The shooting is going to begin in March as said by NTR recently. He even announced that the film will be coming out on April 2024. So, he needs to complete the shooting as fast as possible in order to spend ample time on post-production. Reports suggest that this film involves heavy VFX work.
Also, this is NTR’s immediate film after a massive international success like ‘RRR’. The expectations are sky-high on this pan-Indian film. Also, Tarak’s performance in Rajamouli’s film was praised by not just Indian critics but also a lot of Hollywood reporters. There was a lot of talk that he would get nominated for Oscars too. So, presenting NTR in the best way possible is going to be a huge task for the ‘Mirchi’ director. On top of everything, there is Rajamouli sentiment where the hero who works with him scores a disaster immediately. Right from the ‘Baahubali’ director’s first film, this trend has been going on and we need to see if Koratala breaks it or not.
There is enormous pressure on Koratala Siva right now but everyone is hoping that he delivers big time.
