You might be thinking I am talking about ‘King’ Nagarjuna, who is soon appearing as a Sai Baba, in K. Raghavendra Rao’s directorial, ‘Sri Sai Baba’. But, I am talking about something related to another Hero in T – Town, who is known for making family and comedy oriented films, Victory Venkatesh.
Director Kodi Rama Krishna, who has once again proved his worth, despite of huge competition among other young T – Town directors, with the film ‘Arundhati’, has announced his latest project. It seems, this director will be making a film, on the life History of Satya Sai Baba titled as ‘Sai Baba’. And guess what, who will be the Hero, playing Sai Baba? You are right; it is none other than Venkatesh.
It is a very bold decision of any film maker to cast a family Hero like Venkatesh in a mythological role such as Sai Baba. But, these days even Venky is looking forward to experiment with the roles.
And moreover, if Venky playing a mythological role is an experiment, then even Nag playing a role of ‘Annamayya’ when he was doing out and out love, mass and commercial entertainers, was also an experiment. Just like audience has accepted Nagarjuna, similarly, we wish Venky would also be appreciated, for his experiment of playing a ‘Sai Baba’.
