Director's madness puts producer in trouble

Director Teja is known for doing whatever he believes without thinking much about the logic. Teja's decision to stop the screening of his recent release 'Neeku Naaku Dash Dash' came as a shocker to many. The reason for stopping the screening is the main reason for the shock factor. Teja says that the film didn't shape up as per his expectations.

Teja is not impressed with the climax part of the movie and hence he believes that it has to be redone. But isn't it too late now? Teja doesn't think so! He decided to stop the screening and is all set to go for a reshoot. NNDD will be released with a new climax in few weeks. During the days where a film gets pirated right on the first day, can anybody take a worse decision than this?

NNDD may not be doing well, but it should be in theaters until the collections completely dry out. Removing it from theaters after five days is nothing but asking for more trouble. The producer who invested big money in this will be losing so much in it. Now with Teja's atrocious decision the losses will further go up. There are few producers who backed out off doing a film with Teja before Anand Prasad decided to make NNDD. All those producers must be thanking the almighty from this Dash project and Dash director!

Tollywood Star Heroes have 'Zero' knowledge: Director

Director Teja ('Chitram', 'Nuvvu Nenu', Jayam' fame) always speaks his mind and never minces the words. He launched an attack on the star heroes in the Industry for not attempting new stories and instead blaming the directors.

When asked him to react on 'Stars blaming directors for failing to come up innovative ideas, though they are ready to experiment', Teja replied,"If a director approaches the heroes with 100 punch dialogues, then the film will be okayed instantly. Our Heroes aren't having that much knowledge on the stories. In Telugu, no star is attempting a new story. If someone approaches them with a new story, they will not listen to it. For example: If we say that the delivery of a baby will be done using a vacuum cleaner in the climax, our heroes will walk away from the story sitting. 3 Idiots was done will the same concept and the film turned out superhit. I can't understand, what's the meaning of new story".

"Our heroes will say that they are open for new ideas, but they don't listen to them when a director approaches them. We are living in the comparitive terms. If films like 'Magadheera' and 'Businessman' turned superhit and got record collections last Friday, then heroes will ask the directors to tell similar stories. If someone tells a new story, they are apprehensive to do it," he added.
