Grape wine has that Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja is likely to confirm Harish Shankar’s film next, who did ‘Shock’ and ‘Mirapakay’ with him.
There was a time during when Harish was struggling to become a director in early 2000’s. With gaining some experience as an assistant, Harish worked as an associate director for Ravi Teja’s ‘Veede.’ Impressed by his commitment, Ravi promised Harish that he’ll act under his direction. Few years later in 2006, Harish directed ‘Shock’ that featured Ravi Teja and Jyothika. Though this film didn’t do well commercially, Harish impressed critics.
With ‘Shock’ leaving in nowhere, Harish took a few years gap and directed ‘Mirapakay’ in 2011. Ravi Teja was once again seen as the hero while Richa Gangopadhyay, Deeksha Seth paired opposite him. This film was received commercially and gave a new hope for Harish.
In 2012, he remade Bollywood super hit flick ‘Dabangg’ as ‘Gabbar Singh’ that featured Pawan Kalyan as a cop. This film turned out to become a massive hit and stood as the highest grosser in Telugu film till then.
With two back to back super hits, Harish got the chance of directing Jr.NTR for ‘Ramayya Vasthavayya.’ Harish, who hoped that this too will turn out to become a blockbuster, saw an opposite result. ‘Ramayya Vasthavayya’ was a flop.
Once again falling low in the career with ‘Ramayya Vasthavayya’ disaster, Harish was left with a question mark. After a year and a half gap, Harish took up the megaphone to direct Mega hero Sai Dharam Tej for ‘Subramanyam For Sale.’
This film had released some time ago and stood as a decent hit bringing back the lost confidence in Harish.
His next film is not yet announced. It is likely that he will be directing his first hero Ravi Teja once again. Harish is hoping to stand in the big league by bagging another hit Ravi Teja….let hope he does so.
