The grand celebrations of the Directors Day Event took place last night in LB Stadium and some of the top and successful directors of Telugu cinema attended the event. The event had the attendance of Allu Arjun, Nani, Adivi Sesh, Allari Naresh and Anand Deverakonda. The event was celebrated as a tribute to legendary director Dasari Narayana Rao but his name was sidelined in the event. Apart from entertaining programs, the entire event was focused on Allu Arjun. Most of the directors even did remind of Dasari Narayana Rao garu.

Apart from this, the event management team sold off the MIP passes for Rs 2000 announcing that several top stars and directors of Telugu cinema will attend. One more complaint is that several veteran directors of Telugu cinema were not invited or informed about the event. This raised a lot of criticism against the organizers and the team of young directors who overlooked the event.
