It is without a doubt that Trivikram Srinivas is one of the best writers Tollywood has ever had. The Wizard of Words was a big brand even before becoming a director. Movies which he penned the dialogues for ended up being super hits. People watch films like 'Nuvvu Naku Nachav', 'Manmadhudu', 'Malliswari', 'Nuvve Kavali', 'Chirunavvutho' and many more even today. He used to get paid one crore at that time which was enormous.
Even after becoming a director and restricting his pen power his own films, he wrote dialogues for movies like 'Teenmar' and 'Jai Chiranjeeva'. Trivikram usually spends 1-2 years on a film which means that the audience are getting to see his writing prowess frequently. This is why Trivikram seems to have taken another route these days.
Apart from working on his own movies, he is setting up projects for Pawan Kalyan. He is writing the dialogues and screenplay for the film and is handing over the directorial responsibilities to another filmmaker. Sources say that he took 10 crores for 'Bheemla Nayak'. Reports suggest that Trivikram is getting paid 15 crores for setting up 'Bro' and penning the screenplay as well as the dialogues.
Grapevine suggests that he will be getting a small share in profits too. If this happens, he will be taking 20 crores just as a writer. No other writer in the industry can take such a big paycheque. Also, he will not be entirely responsible if the movie tanks at the box office. It looks like Trivikram's master plan is working out brilliantly.
