Senior director Dasari Narayana Rao is renowned for speaking his heart out without any thought of the consequences. It has been his nature from the start of his career and with some experience, he is become a good speaker too. At the recently held program of felicitating K Raghava [the most senior producer in Tollywood], Dasari has used some strong words to criticize the current generation producers and star heroes. Here are few excerpts from his emotional speech:
*Producers were used to be treated with lots of respect by the heroes in those olden days, but not now!
*Financiers, cashiers, mediators, and brokers are the current day producers and they have zero knowledge in the film making process. They just keep waiting for the dates of a star hero and earn crores by making hero-centric film with those heroes… These producers are ready to eat any kind of grass for acquiring the dates….
*Our grand history is being forgotten and if you ask a kid about NTR, he will be telling about Junior NTR and not the real/original NTR. This is the fate of our bygone era and its greatness….
*I and my team of directors have always had faith in the script/story and not the stars or combinations….
This is how Dasari has attacked the current system of movie making and film business process!
TRIVIA: It’s been more than 15 years since Dasari had given a hit and Osey Ramulamma [1997] was his last hit. He has been searching for a success for a good success ever since!
