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.

Dhanush-Nayan Controversy: Netflix is Happy?

An ugly controversy has brewed up between Nayanthara and Dhanush to the degree that it quickly become a nationally trending topic. It all started with Dhanush rejecting the copyright permission for Netflix to use footage from Naanum Rowdy Thaan which is his production venture. Ever since, Nayanthara has been breathing fire on him.

However, Dhanush is not bothered much about this saga as he is continuing to deal with this issue in a sedate and left-handed manner. Incidentally, the two of them were even seen at a wedding together recently and there was this one picture where they were seen in a single frame.

Amidst all the discussions about Dhanush and Nayan on social media, it has to be seen if Netflix is the happier party as they are gaining a lot of reaction from this saga.

The social media is buzzing about Nayan and Dhanush almost entirely for the last few days and this is the most discussed topic on socials these days. In accordance with this, Netflix must surely benefit from their show on Nayanthara as it will eventually gain a lot of traction.

All the social media talk about this matter is likely to work very much in favor of the Netflix show as it could lead the social media audience towards the Netflix original.

As it turns out, the saga involving Nayan and Dhanush is leaving Netflix as the benefactor and the OTT giant simply couldn’t have asked for more.
