Those who know Sekhar Kammula well say he is one director who speaks less, keeps a low profile, doesn’t comment much on cine folks.
However, it is heard that in a recent get together, someone prompted our man and he was sharing his thoughts which eventually became the possibility of a film project.
Well, Kammula reportedly said “Rana looks better in ‘Magadheera’ style of getup. He has that height, chiseled looks of a warrior so he will look well.” For this, few distributors who were around Kammula immediately said “Why don’t you do a film with him like that?” it is heard that Kammula flashed his endearing smile as usual and walked away.
On the other hand, few analysts said “Comparing Rana with Ramcharan is okay because both are very good friends. However, if the comparing was done with Junior NTR, there might have been some trouble. So, when making comparisons one has to be careful and Kammula did the right thing.”
