Getting a nation-wide recognition and that too for your debut attempt is not a joke! And believing in your style of making and keep making good cinema is also not anyone can do!
But, he has got every trait of a good qualitative filmmaker and he is now supported by an equally passionate team. He is none other than director Neelakanta or in other words ‘Missamma’ Neelakanta. Show was the film that got art house close to him and national beams focused on him [National Award for Best Screenplay for Show] but Missamma was the film that took him close to the common man’s heart.
He too had his share of hiccups in the name of Sadaa Mee Sevalo, Nandanavanam 120 kms, Virodhi and recently Chammak Challo. But, he is always undeterred and doesn’t give up. In fact, why should anyone with a producer like Madhura Sreedhar Reddy [popularly known as Madhura Sreedhar]? Being a filmmaker himself, Madhura Sreedhar knows the dire need of good and versatile films in Tollywood. So, both the masterminds have joined hands to bring in ‘Maaya’ an edgy thriller starring Harshvardham Raane [Prema Ishq Kadhal fame], Avantika and Sushma Raj in the leads under Shirdi Sai Combines banner. “If you have a preview of the next second?” – Maaya is going to offer you 100% entertainment with such an exciting theme! It has music by Sekhar Chandra, Cinematography by Bal Reddy and Editing by Naveen Nooli.
The first look of the film has been launched recently in a star studded event and is also garnering great response for its visual brilliance and innovative presentation. Hope the film also turns equally interesting and keeps up the expectations of a Neelankanta-Madhura Sreedhar combination!
