Reliable sources revealed that they are currently scouting for directors who can come up with sensible and innovative scripts that can be made into web series.

It is exclusively learnt that director Raghavendra Rao’s son Prakash Rao Kovelamudi has turned script consultant for Jio. Prakash Rao is currently busy working on different scripts and he is going to play a significant role in the web series to be launched by Jio very soon. Already, players like Arka Media and Amazon Prime are in the fray of digital world and they are aggressively involved in churning out web series.

Arka Media is soon going to bankroll a big budget web series with Praveen Sattaru and Devakatta. Amazon Prime roped in Swapna Dutt and Nandini Reddy to deliver quality web series.
