At least there is one (veteran) hero in Tollywood who is respecting the pulse of audience by remaining selective in picking the characters and scripts which suit his age and reputation. He could have got a big queue of directors and projects in pipeline if at all Venky want to fill his diary. Fortunately, this man is not of such sorts. After remakes like ‘Drishyam, Gopala Gopala, Masala’ etc, there is a big pause in Venky’s innings with not even a single project signed so far.
There were reports on ‘Onamalu’ fame Kranthi Madhav approached Venkatesh with a project and ‘Pilla Zamindar’ fame Ashok locked a silent movie script exclusively penned for Daggubati star hero. Although both the ventures would have been taken off by now, still there are no official updates to explain the status.
Venkatesh appears to be in dual state of minds to get either of these balls rolling. Till the time he is completely satisfied with the script and narration, no way one can take these project on sets. While Venky Fans may be upset with these long delays but all this should result in delivery of two milestone films.
