Allu Aravind's sly dig

Director Parasuram was supposed to make a film for Allu Aravind with Naga Chaitanya. After spending considerable time on the script, the director reportedly got a better deal. He signed a film for producer Dil Raju with Vijay Deverakonda. This seems to have irked Allu Aravind big time.

A couple of days ago, speaking at a film event, the producer lauded another director, Chandoo Mondeti, who was a guest at the function. Aravind praised Chandoo and added that there were directors who became successful in their careers with his help but eventually betrayed him. “Chandoo stood by his word to make a film for me. He was given lucrative offers but he did not give in to the temptations,” Aravind said, adding that senior producers should make way for juniors.

Although Aravind did not actually name the director, it is understood that he was referring to Parasuram.
