Gossip in tinsel town is that Ram is among the few heroes in industry who cannot resist meddling with the film production work.
Apparently, he wants to have a say in story and in making. Also, he has had only flops in recent past.
So, he hasn’t been able to get a good director of late for his projects.
Naturally, Ram was forced to look out for a director himself and the latest buzz is that he has found one.
So rumour is that he decided to give the director a chance after checking out the trailer of his latest film.
It is known that Kalyan Ram is coming with Pataas. The film has been directed by Anil Raavipudi.
Since Anil Raavipudi is basically a writer, Ram is said to have called him and asked him to narrate a line.
Once he was happy with the story, Ram zeroed down on Anil.It is also being said that their association goes back a long way.
Apparently, Anil was the writer for Masala which had Ram playing one of the heroes.
Ironically, Masala is one of the biggest industry disasters.
Well, Ram had to make sure that his career was not stalled abruptly. And that was the only way he could get going say industry insiders.
