A New Portfolio In Telugu Cinema - Patchwork Director!
By: Tupaki Desk | 1 Jun 2019 8:12 AM GMTWe heard Hollywood spending millions on trailer editors who work on trailers on films, then film post production specialists - who re-cut the film after director's cut, if it fails to impress and script doctors - who explain problems in scripts at pre-production stage.
But they never said to have taken new director to finish patch work of a film after principal photography. If director seems to be incompetent they re-work with new team or producers finish the work.
Telugu Cinema has started a new portfolio bringing in better known or unknown talented directors to finish patch work and re-shoots of the film.
Prashanth Varma, director of Awe!, is said to the first choice for most of them. He recently did complete That is Mahalakshmi, as Neelakanta left the film after shooting two-thirds.
He got busy with Rajasekhar's Kalki and that film brought him close to the senior actor. He asked him to complete 2 States and some re-shoots also it seems.
Movie has been halted due to Adivi Sesh and director, Venkat Reddy's on going creative brawl. The young director moved to court against firing him and hence, Prashanth couldn't take over.
Second unit directors of popular directors are known as patch work directors usually and only when the original director seems to have gone completely wrong big names come in to complete the film as a favour to their producer friends.
If Prashanth Varma's involvement brings in success to That is Mahalakshmi, he could open gates for others also to become patch work directors and experts.
