Akkineni Nagarjuna is known for being a shrewd businessman and good judge of talent.
Whenever he supports a film or an young talent, we have seen them go on to make their mark in the Industry in a big way, barring few.
This time he came forward to release a film, Chi La Sow on his home banner, Annapurna Studios and the movie is directed by Rahul Ravindran.
Many thought he did to help hs nephew, Sushanth but Nag took the decision only after watching the film, it seems.
Rahul Ravidran, the director of the film said, "As an actor I knew Samantha from past decade. We have been friends and my wife, Chinmayi has been her voice on screen.
I came into Industry to become a director but became an actor to survive. So, when I took a risk to start a film as a director, Samantha worried for me more than I did.
She asked me if I am making a mistake. I showed her the film and she asked Naga Chaitanya to watch it with her. Chaitanya liked it and he showed it to Nag sir.
Nag sir said that he laughed and cried while watching the film and asked me to direct a film for Annapurna. I will start a film soon.
When Nag sir complimented me, I felt like I won an oscar," concluded the director.
The movie is releasing on 3rd August and has a huge positive buzz with the promos going viral.
