Koratala Siva is one director who is following the path of today’s popular directors like SS Rajamouli, VV Vinayak and Puri Jagannadh who delivered big hits at the beginning of their career and even bettering it. He delivered the biggest hit of the career for each star he worked till that date. Prabhas introduced him as the director after being a successful writer for films like Simha, Bhadra, Brundavanam. He returned the favor and trust in him with a film like Mirchi, that turned out to be hugely successful and gave Prabhas confidence to approach Bahubali as a hero in form. Then he waited two years for certain combinations to workout with Mahesh, Jr. Ntr and Charan. Charan okayed his script but the director himself felt it was not happening enough for him to make a film like that and decided to drop the project.
Then he got a nod from Mahesh for his Srimanthudu script and he delivered big time for Mahesh bringing him out of two major disasters like Nenokkadine and Aagadu. Srimanthudu is still the second highest grosser after Bahubali and several people gave it a tag of Non Bahubali Industry Hit. After this humongous success, he long awaited combination got a nod and a producer, to make the film with Jr. NTR. He delivered another good characterisation for the actor and even handled a legend like MohanLal in an equal important role and proved himself. Janatha Garage, released in September and become the third highest grosser behind Srimanthudu and it was the most awaited blockbuster success for NTR and his fans.
After this the craze for the director is at its peak and Mahesh is starting his second film with him.Even though for Mahesh, none of the second films with his successful directors have worked before, he is highly confident in Sivas ability and his script. The movie is starting this month only on 9th of November, that is. The movie will be about a politician it seems and the working title is, Bharat Ane Nenu. The movie will go on floors for regular shoot from January next year with Mahesh joining the filming. DVV Danayya is producing and other cast details are expected to be revealed after starting of the movie.
