It has a complicated yet understandable story whose focal point is revenge. The screenplay of the film carries is so subtle emotions with comedy, thrill and action that you not give a miss to watch it.

Lead characters that appeared in Mayabazar were:

NTR as Krishna, SVR as Ghatotkacha, Savitri as Sasirekha and many other interesting characters. Mayabazar was recently re-released in a colour version which got overwhelmed response from the audience.

The above characters gave a good weight-age to the film and justified by their roles by an evergreen acting. Mayabazar too was in the headlines as the subject for sequel. Though no director or an actor spoke about this classic old Telugu movie. It would be fascinating if someone like S.S. Rajamouli takes up this subject. Actors like Jr.NTR, Venkatesh, Balakrishna have the capalities to fill the boots of NTR. Mohan Babu, JayaPrakah Narayana is suitable for Ghatotkacha.

This film casts Chiranjeevi as Jagadeka Veerudu and Sridevi as Athiloka Sundari. Talking about the plot Raju(Chiranjeevi) falls in extreme love with Indraja(Sridevi) whom he saw in Himalayas. Later he comes to know that Indraja isn’t a normal lady but the daughter of Lord Indra.

She gifts him a ring by which super natural powers can be claimed. The story goes with unexpected twists and turns.
If a sequel for this will ever be made, then that should defenetly be directed by Raghavender Rao himself. Coming to the actors fill-up Chiranjeevi’s son Ram Charan and SriDevi’s daughter Jahnavi Kapoor will be one can probably fill their parent’s shoe.
