Dil Raju is making a wonderful high budget multi starrer film in the direction of Sreekanth Addala and that is known for all. The title ‘Seetamma Vakitlo Sirimalle Chettu’ is also so captivating.
As per the sources the film runs on the heavy drama between vadina and maridhi. So the key roles are those two. While ‘maridhi’ is finalized to be Mahesh Babu, now the problem is with vadhina.
Initially they tried to get Nayantara but Prabhudeva negated. Entire ‘SVSC’ team tried to convince Prabhudeva but all efforts turned vain. Then they thought to go for Sridevi Boney Kapoor. But Venkatesh who has to pair up with vadhina character negated the idea stating that she looks too old beside him (!!). Otherwise, ‘Kshana Kshanam’ pair might have returned again. Then, they approached Anushka. But that is yet to be finalized as there are some mental blocks in casting her. That is because, Mahesh Babu and Anushka paired up recently in ‘Khaleja’ and hence audience may not feel comfortable seeing her as Mahesh’s s-i-l.
Now vadhina search is going on in big way. The next choice is Bhoomika and we have to see if that gets finalized. Of course, Mahesh Babu has done Okkadu with her.
But one thing has to be understood here by the makers. It is the emotion in the narration that allures the audience but not the combination. Prakash Raj who acted as a tough antagonist to Mahesh Babu is ‘Pokiri’, portrayed as his sentimental father in ‘Dookudu’. But no audience worried and they didn’t even recall what they have seen in Pokiri. Similarly, Jayasudha who acted as wife to Prakash Raj in Bommarillu, appeared as elder sister to him in ‘Solo’. No one recalled Bommarillu combination while watching Solo.
Let us wish the makers clear their mental blocks.
