Trivikram Srinivas is among the top filmmakers in Telugu cinema. He was once regarded as the second-biggest director in the industry after SS Rajamouli, although the equation has changed in recent years with filmmakers such as Sukumar and Sandeep Reddy Vanga also emerging as major forces.
Trivikram has now teamed up with Venkatesh for “Aadarsha Kutumbam”, ahead of his first mythological film, “God of War”, with NTR.
The collaboration comes at an interesting time for Venkatesh. His previous film, “Sankranthiki Vasthunnam”, became the biggest success of his career, reportedly grossing more than Rs 250 crore worldwide.
That success has raised the expectations considerably for his next film.
Trivikram is therefore facing a significant challenge with “Aadarsha Kutumbam”. The film needs to work at the box office and live up to the expectations created by Venkatesh’s recent blockbuster. A strong commercial success would also give Trivikram a much-needed boost after a relatively quiet phase.
The film is scheduled to release next month, and the big question is whether Trivikram can create another major blockbuster for Venkatesh and take the actor’s market to the next level.
