Time up for senior generation directors in Tollywood?

Tollywood is a largely bustling industry with a huge influx of fresh and appeasing talent. In particular, the new crop of young filmmakers in the industry have been showcasing immense potential. This has essentially meant that the older generation of directors are no longer relevant in the industry.

The likes of Puri Jagannadh and VV Vinayak have already faded out and they are no longer in the picture. At the same time, we have veterans like Rajamouli and Sukumar who are sustaining with their pan Indian presence. Trivikram might also follow this suit sooner or later and the result will decide his prospects.

But for now, the industry is being virtually ruled by the current crop of filmmakers including Sandeep Reddy Vanga, Venky Atluri, Prasanth Varma, and others who have immense potential and are coming with the kind of content that is appeasing the modern day audience. They are the leading directors in the modern day set up as the Telugu folk are also readily lapping them up.

The current generation audience are always looking for something out of the ordinary and they are leaving no stone unturned to encourage fresh and exciting content. Matching this taste is nearly impossible for Puri, Vinayak and others. Only the directors with global touch like Rahamouli and Sukumar are able to keep themselves relevant and that too with extensive hard work.

Sandeep Reddy Vanga has brought in a new change of paradigm in the industry where the audience are readily lapping up a film regardless of the A-rate content and violence. The industry appears to be in search of more X-factor directors like him at this point. Same with Prasanth Varma who is blending creative storytelling with top tier making values.

In the due course, this trend will only get bigger and better as Tollywood prepares to encourage a fresh bunch of promising talent with more and more directors popping up day in day out. This is a positive reinforcement that is perhaps necessitated by the changing tastes and sensibilities of the modern day audience. Only the most talented of the lot can pull the audience to theaters these days.

Mohan Babu’s Kannappa Poster: A Sage Like No Other!

In the realm of storytelling, few moments carry the weight of a legend’s legacy. As Vishnu Manchu’s Kannappa prepares to make its mark, the team has unveiled a powerful new poster of Mohan Babu, embodying the formidable ‘Mahadeva Shastri’ on his 50th year in the industry. This visual strikes with the intensity of a storm, showcasing Mohan Babu in full sage attire his body wrapped in a red shawl, adorned with rudraksha beads, and his long hair flowing like an untamed river of wisdom. In his hands, he wields a powerful stick, commanding the screen with a presence that is both serene and fierce.

The character of Mahadeva Shastri, as presented in this poster, promises to be a force to be reckoned with an embodiment of strength, devotion, and unyielding power. His aura alone suggests that this will not be a character that fades into the background, but one that will leave a lasting imprint on audiences. With his deep connection to spirituality and a fearsome persona, Mahadeva Shastri is poised to be a timeless figure that fans will talk about for years to come.

As Mohan Babu celebrates 50 glorious years in the industry, his portrayal of this revered character in Kannappa becomes even more significant. The poster not only marks a milestone in his career but also signals the beginning of a powerful new journey for the actor, who has always been known for his gripping performances. It’s clear that Kannappa will be a film where intensity and emotion converge, leaving an indelible mark on the audience.

And with Kannappa set to bring forth Mahadeva Shastri’s might, we can’t help but wonder if the film will be as intimidating as its characters or if we’ll need to prepare ourselves to bow down to the legend that is Mohan Babu. Either way, it’s going to be a wild ride!
