Venkatesh’s upcoming sports drama ‘Guru,’ remade from Tamil film ‘Irudhi Suttru’ is facing release hurdles. Actually, the Telugu film is produced and directed by the same team of producer Sashikanth and director Sudha Kongara Prasad. In order to reduce production costs, they have used the same Tamil/Hindi original footage retaining Rithika Singh scenes as it is. Only those portions which require Venkatesh and combination scenes are shot separately. 

Finally, ‘Guru’ promotional stuff is rolled out and created curiosity announcing the release date as January 26th. Latest we heard from film unit is, Venkatesh expressed unhappiness over the final version and called in for an urgent meeting showing off his concern. Resultantly, they went for re-shooting of many scenes yet Venky is left dissatisfied.
