Anil Ravipudi Is Indebted to Nandamuri Kalyan Ram

Director Anil Ravipudi has completed 11 successful years in the Telugu film industry, and the milestone has turned into an emotional moment for the hitmaker. Adding to the celebration, his latest film, Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu, starring Chiranjeevi, has emerged as a smash hit.

Marking 11 years since his directorial debut, Anil Ravipudi shared a heartfelt note reflecting on his journey and expressing gratitude to everyone who supported him along the way. He made a special mention of his first hero, Nandamuri Kalyan Ram, for placing trust in him at a crucial early stage of his career.

Anil stated that the confidence shown by Kalyan Ram gave him the courage to move forward fearlessly in the industry. With his recent success, all eyes are now on Anil Ravipudi’s next project, which is expected to be announced soon.

Over the years, Anil Ravipudi has delivered several successful films such as F2 and Sankranthiki Vasthunam, consistently targeting family audiences, especially during the Sankranthi festival season, and minting gold at the box office. His films are largely driven by wife-and-husband conflicts blended with strong comedy, which has become his trademark style.

Recently, when comparisons were drawn between him and ace director S.S. Rajamouli, Anil responded humbly, saying that such comparisons are unfair. He added that he does not want to diminish Rajamouli’s stature by associating his name with him, calling the legendary filmmaker unmatched.
