Once you become a music director, it is a rare occurrence that you would be seen onscreen. In some cases, you might just do a blink and miss appearance for a song or a friendly appearance. But becoming an actor literally doesn’t really work. However, one man has ventured into this as well.
He is none other than RP Patnaik and this time he seems to have achieved a unique record. Many years ago, RP Patnaik scored the tunes for the hit movie Nuvvu Nenu and many songs in that became chartbusters. The heroine of that film was Anitha and she had paired up with the late Uday Kiran.
Now, the same Anitha has been roped in as the heroine for the new movie Manalo Okadu which has RP Patnaik as the hero. This is perhaps the first time that a music director is pairing up with his film’s heroine for a full length role. RP would be seen in the role of a college lecturer in this movie.
