Appalaraju to direct from August 27

After the landslide success of SS Raja Mouli's Maryada Ramanna starring comedian sunil Babu and Saloni Aswani, another windfall has come in sunil's way. This time ace director Ram Gopal Verma (RGV) has invited sunil to lead his funny movie Katha Screenplay Darshakatvam Appalaraju.

 The film being produced by Kiran Koneru's Shreya Productions is about a movie maniac trying to get to the top in film industry. The flick is set to be a Sankranthi release. Half luck and another half 'hard work' is at the root of the flick. The shooting of the film will commence on August 27.

The comedian hero who is already in cloud-Nine after the Maryada Ramanna glory is excited about the invitation from RGV. sunil has established his mettle and earned rave reviews for his recent hit. sunil's first film as a hero was Andala Ramudu (2006) opposite Aarti Agarwal. It was an average film.
However, sunil has won several awards besides his fans' applause for his humorous characterisation.

Ram Gopal Varma started his career by directing the Telugu movie Shiva starring superstar Nagarjuna, which was a box-office hit. Now, Varma is back to Telugu movies after years.

Director Rajamouli's charity

Director SS Rajamouli for the first time is getting directly involved in charity aspect with his movie ‘maryada ramanna.’ Taking the recent Tollywood trend of auctioning the weapons and  costumes used by top heroes in the films like ‘Magdheera, Simha and Adurs,’ now the Dokku Cycle used by Sunil with Voice Over of Raviteja is coming to auction for a good cause.

Director SS Rajamouli tweeted that, ‘we are auctioning maryada ramanna cycle on 14th August, 4PM at Annapurna Studio. Whatever amount the cycle goes for, me and the Producers will triple it and donate the total amount to DEVNAR SCHOOL FOR THE BLIND. All are welcome.’

That’s really for a good cause and may Rajamouli serve as inspiration for many more in the industry to come forward and help the destitute.

S.S Rajamouli’s Upcoming Movie titled "Eega"

SS Rajamouli’s next film could be titled ‘Eega’, which could be 3D film. And this ‘Eega’ film could largely depend on his ‘Maryada Ramanna’ starring Sunil. Now how often you see top stars queuing up for a sensational director and yet the director turns down everything – Perhaps this is a rarity and new in Teleugu film industry at least.

Rajamouli, who took Telugu cinema to a new height with his last outing ‘Magadheera’, is turning blind eye for everyone. Against all odds, Rajamouli seems to be interested in making a 3D film with unusual film with an strange cast as his next movie.

Reports say that the work for Rajamouli ‘Eega’ is progressing secretly, where the film stars ‘Eega’ (fly) as the lead protagonist. This is surely an experimental film with computer graphics taking centre stage and the entire film would be narrated from Eega’s perspective. Recently Rajamouli shot has bought a high-end camera for this film.

To be honest, ‘Maryada Ramanna’ itself is an experiment for Rajamouli’s style of film making, so why not ‘Eega’, given his phenomenal success, he could anything

Maryada Ramanna is undergoing CG Work

SS Rajamouli is currently busy with ‘Maryada Ramanna’ starring Sunil in lead role. This film also involves lot of graphics like his earlier two films. Reports say that although Sunil is not commercial hero like NTR and Ram Charan Teja, the director is spending huge sum on CG work. This is because he believes in himself more than his heroes.
