In the last few years, we have seen several young directors making their debut with the tag of ‘Assistant of some Top Director’. Disciples of the likes of Rajamouli, VV Vinayak, Sukumar, Puri Jagannath, Srinu Vytla etc. have more or less tried to emulate their teasers/gurus and not many became successful. Now, probably for the first time, an assistant of Trivikram is gearing up to make his directorial debut.
Venkat, who has worked under Trivikram for several years, has reportedly floored young hero Naga Shourya with a subject. Impressed with the script, Shourya has come forward to produce the film, thus making his debut as a producer.
This project will be an acid test for Venkat as his directorial abilities as an assitant of matchless Trivikram will be under scrutiny. The tag of Trivikram’s assistant might help one bag opportunities easily but the youngster will also have to carry the burden of Trivikram-level expectations from producers as well as movie lovers.
Let’s see if Venkat passes the test and make Trivikram proud.
