You may have scored a fantastic success with your first film as a director but then your real mettle as a filmmaker is cemented only when you have a consistency in your success graph. There are many talented filmmakers who fizzled without a trace in this process.
The focus now is on the young director Tarun Bhascker. His debut flick Peli Choopulu happened like a phenomenon and got an overwhelming response. However, the cine intellectuals say his real fate would be decided with his second movie.
They suggest that if he goes in the path of the soft spoken filmmaker Sekhar Kammula it would not work. Instead, Tarun needs to change the trend and come up with something that is different from his first. So, his next movie is quite crucial for him to find a foothold.
