Tolly Director relies on Chota K Naidu for Mega 156!

Chiranjeevi, the Megastar of Tollywood, made a grand comeback after a hiatus but hasn't yet delivered a blockbuster that matches his stature. While Waltair Veeraya managed to be a hit, many consider its storyline to be conventional and ordinary.

All attention is now focused on his upcoming venture, tentatively titled Mega 156, with director Vashishta. Vashishta previously achieved great success with the socio-fantasy film Bimbisara, starring Kalyan Ram. Fans and industry insiders alike hold high expectations from this collaboration, hoping that Vashishta might revive the classic Chiranjeevi magic on screen.

However, recent murmurs suggest a different scenario behind the scenes. It's rumored that Vashishta heavily relies on cinematographer Chota K Naidu for the execution of Mega 156. "The project is very much in its initial stages. There is no clarity on a lot of things. The director is a newbie though he delivered a blockbuster hit with the first film. The production house is very careful as it is Chiranjeevi's film. Nobody is ready to take risks here. So the shot division is something that Chota K Naidu is going to take care of. Entire responsibility of a Chiranjeevi film will not be the director's," said a source.

The significance of the DOP cannot be overstated in a film's production. They play a pivotal role in crafting the visual narrative, deciding on camera angles, lighting, and overall aesthetics that deeply influence the audience's cinematic experience.

As discussions and speculations continue to swirl around the project, the focus shifts not only to Chiranjeevi's performance but also to the collaborative efforts between Vashishta and Chota K Naidu. Fans eagerly anticipate whether this combined effort will result in a cinematic masterpiece that brings back the vintage essence of Chiranjeevi's on-screen brilliance.
