Saying about how he felt about directing Chiranjeevi- "Definitely it is not a small thing. This is the biggest film with a big star who did 153 films already. The image of the hero also plays a vital role on director's mind. How to show him differently is a different pressure all together. I learn from my father Editor Mohan on how to imagine a scene in the view point of audience in theater. I don't get carry away merely by my personal taste. I imagine myself in the theatre with crowds around. I imagine how they would respond at several moments. I think I imaged in right way".
Sharing his experience about watching Lucifer for the first time he said- "When I watched the Lucifer for the first time, I felt that was an innovative screenplay. I rate Lucifer as an evolutionized version of Rajnkanth's Basha in the matter of hiding the hero and revealing him bit by bit. I felt freshness in the screenplay".
