These days filmmaking has becoming an element of comedy with abundant scope for cracking skits. Anyone and everyone with a full wallet is a director. If no one is producing, he would act and produce it for himself. And even if a producer is ready to invest, everyone would look to squeeze and squash him out.

But, Vaarahi Chalana Chitra producer Sai Korrapati is a lucky man! He’s got a young talented and smart director who is absolutely producer-friendly. According to insiders, Srinivas Avasarala (Ashta Chemma fame) has been allocated Rs. 2 crore budget for his debut directorial venture Oohalu Gusa Gusalade. But guess what, he has wrapped up the film for just Rs. 1.50 Crores saving around Rs. 50 lakhs for his producer, according to a source. And happy man Sai Korrapati promised him yet another film for Srinivas Avasarala that would be announced shortly.

In the current scenario, Sai Korrapati is a lucky producer to have got a director who works in the producer’s interest and even Srinivas Avasarala is lucky enough to have got an encouraging producer.
