Most comedians who become lead actors do not fare well. Vennela Kishore, Brahmanandam, Ali, and Sunil all played lead roles.
While Ali and Sunil initially enjoyed great success as heroes, they were unable to sustain it over time and failed to produce consistent hits.
Suhas seems to be experiencing the same challenge. He rose to prominence as a comedian or as the hero's friend in numerous films.
He achieved success as a lead actor in films such as "Color Photo" and "Writer Padmabhushan."
However, his subsequent films like "Ambajipeta Marriage Band" and "Prasanna Vadanam" failed to recover their budgets despite receiving decent reviews and appreciation.
The most serious issue for him is that he is unable to generate strong openings or attract audiences, even after receiving positive feedback.
Suhas has nearly four films in various stages of production, including some from major production houses such as Dil Raju's.
However, to gain the confidence of these producers, he must deliver a hit immediately, or the prospects for these films will not be promising.
