SS Rajamouli saved from embarrassment and humiliation!
Vijayendra Prasad is a well-known name in Indian Film Industry. He has written story for all the films directed by his son SS Rajamouli, including the latest Baahubali – 1 and Baahubali – 2. He has given stories for many blockbusters in Telugu Film Industry. Even though Vijayendra Prasad directed couple of movies in the past (in 1996 and 2006), he is well known for his directorial ventures Rajanna (2011) and Srivalli (2017)
With Rajanna only being an above grosser, rest all films have bombed at the box office. The ace writer has been criticised for his directing abilities. Few critics stated that ‘By directing such films he is only damaging the reputation and the good name of his son SS Rajamouli.’
After all the fuss, the writer has finally chosen to stick to his forte of writing, instead of further embarrassing his son with his directorial ventures. It is reported that Vijayendra Prasad would no more involve himself in directing, but will be associated with writing scripts for films. This star writer has recently written Vijay’s starrer ‘Mersal’ which has gone on to become an industry hit. Vijayendra Prasad confirmed that he currently writing the story for an upcoming Bollywood film featuring a top Bollywood star as the hero.
