After any film declares to be a success, the Hero, Music, story, villain and sometimes the Heroine of the film are appreciated to the core. But, the appreciation for the director of the film about the success would be the last in the lot many times. These days, when the knowledge about film making has been growing amongst the people, the importance of the director of the film has been known. Let’s see what Surender Reddy, the director of the recent block buster success ‘Oosaravelli’ talks all about the film;

About the origination of ‘Oosaravelli’?

Both the story and the title are inter - related and one is dependent on other, amongst these two. Basically, the title was apt as per the story and the characterization of the Hero, who has n number of change overs and in accordance to get his task done, he projects this change over. So, in these recent times, ‘Oosaravelli’ is one such story of which the title is exactly suitable to that of the story.

Highlight of the film

For any other South Indian film, that too a T – Town film, the characterization of the Hero of the film has always proven to be a highlight, unless and until it is a experimental flick. But for a complete commercial film and the story such as ‘Oosaravelli’ apart from the story line, the characterizations of both the Hero and the Heroine are the highlights. And after the release of the film, even audience approved the same as a result the movie is declared as one of the biggest success of the year, as per the T – Town films.

About the story line and the journey of the story to film making

VakkantamVamsi, the story writer of the film shares a very good rapport with me. He knows what I expect out of the story and how my kind of film making is. Right from ‘Kick’, to ‘Oosaravelli’, we have been working together and would continue the same as well. So, Vamsi and I sat for about 6 months on the story itself. We then, bought out the excellent output with ‘Oosaravelli’. And, the only name that was in my mind as who would be the hero of the film, he was Jr. N.T.R and no one else. Because, for a power packed story and extra ordinary elements as per the film, there has to be a powerful Actor who can do 100% justice to the story and the character. And more over, earlier I have made films like ‘Ashok’ with Jr. N.T.R and could not achieve the success. But, with ‘Oosaravelli’, I and Jr. N.T.R bagged the success and this is another point of happiness for me.

About DSP’s music

DSP, the name itself sounds so energetic. And as the audience response could be noticed Devi Sri Prasad has given the amazing audio for the film, so as the back ground score, that was perfect to the situations. It has been my long time desire to work with DSP, and with this film, my wish has come true. DSP is a very energetic person to work with. He just does not give the tunes, but he lets his music speak. I still remember the time when DSP was more than excited and got so involved with the story, the evening he listen to the story he has given me 4 tunes, and they were finalized then and there. Once in every 10 days, he used to call and enquire about the shooting progress and all. I am lucky to work with the music director like DSP.

About ‘Oosaravelli’ – Jr. N.T.R

It is not that we have worked on the story, keeping Jr. N.T.R in mind. It was that, after finalizing on the story and the screenplay of the film, we thought Jr. N.T.R would do the justice for the film and that’s how, ‘Oosaravelli’ happened. You can notice this by seeing some romantic sequences in the first half of the film. And yes, we have made certain change overs as per the story, keeping in mind Jr. N.T.R’s body language. But, it was our thought for projecting Jr. N.T.R in a new look, that worked wonder s for the success of the film. Today, for any hero, to experiment with the role and his image has become a tough task. Before doing anything, we think of how the audience would receive the same. So, we did before experimenting the look and role of Jr. N.T.R in this film. But, it is once again proved that hard work many times shows the positive result. It is not that, we have made any changes in the script and the story and taking certain sequences. Jr. N.T.R has always given that freedom to us to let the story be as it is. He is for sure, the Director’s hero. It is just that we made certain minor changes as per the sequences.

About Jr. N.T.R’s look

The audience would be interested to watch the film, only when they feel that the film and the roles are not exaggerating. Keeping this in mind, we have designed the look of Jr. N.T.R. he is supposed to look and bit rough as per the role, so we took care about the costumes, look and the body language of him. A film would only be successful, when each and every element in it is properly taken care. This time, with ‘Oosaravelli’ this worked positive.

About the Dialogues

‘Current TeegaChudataanikiSannagaaneuntundi… kani Touch ChesteDaanamma Shock ee’… all the audience are enjoying this dialogue and many such dialogues that have the inherent quality of that attitude that is required for the powerful story like this. And moreover, if it is a Jr. N.T.R’s film, people would expect some dialogues like this. How can we disappoint the audience? So, we took care about the dialogues of the film. Thanks to Ravi. For the story like ‘Oosaravelli’, by VakkantamVamsi, the dialogues given by Ravi are for sure the Highlight. And as usual, Jr. N.T.R’s touch to it. In short, ‘Oosaravelli’ is a film that has given me a complete satisfaction as a director.

About the taking of the film

I feel happy when people appreciate me for the taking of my film. Yes, I do take a lot of care about the takeoff of each and every sequence, the connect of one sequences and the performance of each and every role in the film. I view my film from an audience perspective. These days, audience is very intelligent. If one mistake we do, they would be ready to catch hold of us and we can make them sit in the theater only by constant entertainment and enthusiasm in the film. So, I take care of the entire appearance of the film, so as for ‘Oosaravelli’ of which the takeoff of the story itself is very challenging.

About Tamanna

There are very few heroines in the industry like Tamanna, who are the complete combo of beauty with performance skills. Even I did not expect Tamanna was such a wonderful actress. Particularly, in one sequence in the film, she has shown to what extent she can mold her performance. Her dedication towards work is amazing. She has a long way to go. And in the story like ‘Oosaravelli’, in which both the lead roles have equal job to do in the film, the casting of both Jr. N.T.R and Tamanna declared to be perfect.

Well, so as ‘Oosaravelli’ declared a grand success and this success has a long way to go!
