Venky Kudumula roped in for Mahesh Babu's film

Director Venky Kudumula will creative inputs to Trivikram Srinivas for Mahesh Babu's film

After back-to-back successes of Chalo and Bheeshma, director Venky Kudumula has been on a high. While he had planned on directing a star hero next, S. Radhakrishna, producer of Mahesh Babu’s next film, has asked him to assist director Trivikram with the project. (Radhakrishna had earlier bankrolled Venky’s Bheeshma). Since Venky’s own directorial is taking time to materialise, he was happy to oblige.

“Venky Kudumula will give creative inputs to Trivikram in fleshing out the script, apart from assisting in other directorial aspects,” says an informed source from the production house.

Another important reason for Venky being asked to step in is that senior co-director Satyam, who worked for Trivikram’s films, recently passed away. Satyam was a go-to man on the sets, and would tutor non-Telugu actresses on dialogue delivery. Producers feel that Venky can fill that vacuum.
