An actor named Chiranjeevi rose to become a legend called Megastar because he entertained and received adulation of audiences of all tastes and genres by doing variety of films. He didn’t stick to mass films despite he his mass image. Before becoming the demigod of masses, Pawan Kalyan has also won class audiences with films like Tholi Prema, Khushi etc.
Coming to young generation Mega heroes, Allu Arjun has also done mostly romantic and family entertainers before shifting gears to mass genre. After scoring hits initially with commercial template films and then endangering his career with back to back duds, Ram Charan resurrected his career with experimental films such as Dhruva and projects with Sukmar and Mani Ratnam.
It looks like Sai Dharam Tej too has finally opened his eyes. The Mega nephew has craved for mas image right from hiss debut film. Although the entertainment factor saved his first few films, the recent back to back disasters – Thikka and Winner probably changed his mind and prompted him to do class films. In his effort for an image makeover, the young hero is now teaming up with director Karunakaran, a specialist in dealing love stories.
Tej’s intent is right but Karunakaran is not the same potential director that he once used to be. His last two films – Endukante Premanta and Chinnadana Neekosam couldn’t justify the promise he had shown in his hey days. Let’s wait and see if the duo can surprise everyone.
