Nani was seen as a guy who had memory issues in “Bhale Bhale Magadivoy”. Sharwanand played the role of a person suffering from obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) in “Mahanabhavudu”.
In “Shailaja Reddy Alludu”, Ramya Krishna was seen as a woman with ego issues. In director Maruthi’s films, lead actors suffer from a disorder – physical or psychological. His heroes are not normal persons.
Then what disorder would Sai Dharam Tej suffer from in director Maruthi’s new film ‘Prati Roju Pandage”?
“I am a normal youngster in this movie. My character doesn’t have any flaws or disorders. Paddathi gala kurradini,” reveals Sai Dharam Tej who recently shortened his name to Sai Teju.
"Prathi Roju Pandage" features Sai Dharam Tej, Raashi Khanna and Sathya Raj in the lead roles. Maruthi is directing the film that is slated for December 20 release.
On the occasion of Deepavali, Sai Tej and Maruthi have opened up about the movie in this fun video interview.
“Not having special characterization for the hero is the specialty of this time. He is an Average Joe,” Maruthi further revealed.
Did they get any trolls over the movie’s title or first look?
“No. We have received many Memes. Funny Memes with quotations like -When you have a beauty like Raashi Khanna, then it should be Prathi Roju Pandage – did the rounds. I enjoyed them and I also really appreciate their creative thoughts,” Sai Tej said.
Sai Tej also revealed that he always celebrates Deepavali festival first at Allu Aravind’s house and then move to Chiranjeevi’s residence and end the day by spending time with his friend Naveen Krishna.
