It is not sufficient if you are just creative and imaginative as a writer, it is also important you need to understand the changing taste of the audience and come up with stories that have contemporary flavors. Not many writers are successful in adapting themselves to that.
However, there is one man who is 76 years old and is yet considered the most intelligent writer around. He is none other than Vijayendra Prasad, father of the tough taskmaster S S Rajamouli and creator of stories for movies like Baahubali, Bajrangi Bhaijaan and others.
The latest from him happens to be the story for the Tamil movie Mersal featuring Ilayathalapathy Vijay. It is heard that Vijay is shown as a ‘Jallikattu’ specialist. It is known that the state of Tamil Nadu burned due to the ‘Jallikattu’ controversy. This only goes to show how Vijayendra Prasad taps the trend and carves an interesting and engaging story out of it.
