Action star Ravi Teja is on a new mission these days. He is pumping in his hard-earned money to promote content-driven movies. His latest offering is ‘Changu Re Bangaru Raja’ starring Kartick Ratnam.
"I liked the script narrated by director Satya and I kept laughing throughout the narration. The wit and humor in the script reminded me of veteran director Vamsi. I gave him a free hand,” he said at a promotional event.
He is also backing another laugh-riot ‘Sundaram Master’ starring Viva Harsha and its trailer has evoked a few laughs. “Ravi Teja is determined to give a boost to content-driven movies. If he likes the theme, he just a gives free hand to the makers. His support is quite crucial for small-budget films and his brand is evoking some buzz,” says a source.
Actually, Ravi Teja rose to dizzy heights by working with young directors like Srinu Vaitla, Vamsi, Harris Shankar and many others. He is also applying the same formula for production and promoting new talent. “He connects with young talent much faster than others. He makes quick decisions and doesn’t delay much after listening to the story. He has a knack for picking novel stories and laugh-riots,” he adds.
He has established RT Team Works and was a partner in his recent action thriller ‘Ravanasura’ but it wasn’t a money spinner’. “Telugu heroes should enter production, only then they would be able to know the woes of producers. Ravi Teja is setting a precedent by supporting thematic movies and giving them his much-needed support since small budget and non-star films are having a tough time drawing in crowds these days,” he concludes.
