Director Koratala Siva is on cloud nine for sure. He believes that his village adoption concept is a huge hit with audiences and he wants to do only such motivational commercial films in the near future. But there is a problem here.
Such message oriented stories laced with fragile elements reach the audiences only if big stars do them. Otherwise if Srimanthudu is done with any younger star, or a secondary grade hero, then its reach would be limited and the preaching gets bored. Only if Mahesh rides a cycle, the applause is this way.
So many young stars have steered a bicycle in many of their films but that never influenced audience to buy themselves a pedaling cycle. So, if Koratala doesn’t get a star like Mahesh or Pawan in that case, these type of stories aren’t going to work.
Probably another best example is Trivikram, where his larger than life roles click only with superstars but not with ordinary heroes. That’s the reason our magical writer-director waits for big heroes dates rather making films with youngies, while Nitin is an exception.
