Jagapathi Babu is also looking to do concept films like Amitabh Bachchan. He is asking directors and producers to come up with different concepts so that he could play the lead role in it.
Jagapathi Babu is aware of his strengths and weaknesses that he wants to do these films within a shoestring budget of 2 to 3 crore.
