Ram Charan has undergone for a remarkable makeover not only physically but mentally as well for ‘Dhruva’. It is heard that Charan had to cut loose a bit from the grip of his father and megastar Chiranjeevi to do a gutsy film like ‘Dhruva’.
When Charan was confused over what kind of films to do after the disaster of ‘Orange’, Chiru took the mantle and helped the young mega heir score successive hits with mass entertainers. In this process, Charan scored commercial success, thanks to solid mega fan base but couldn’t earn the love of average movie goer.
When the proposal of ‘Thani Oruvan’ remake (Dhruva) came to Charan, he identified it as a potential film for an image makeover. Although megastar reportedly felt that the film wouldn’t work with mass audiences and that there is villain domination in it, he respected Charan’s decision. Chiru normally takes care of the editing of Charan’s films but he didn’t interfere for Dhruva and watched only the final cut.
As Charan has proved the elder mega folks wrong by scoring success with Dhruva, Chiru has reportedly given complete freedom to him now. He didn’t even listen to the story of Charan’s film with Sukumar and the intelligent filmmaker was given full authority regarding the film. Charan has reportedly asked Sukumar to make the film in his style without bothering about the box office result.
Going by the tastes of new age Telugu movie lovers, Charan looks to be determined to win his due respect.
