Superstar Mahesh Babu's ambitious film 'Sarkaru Vari Paata' is getting ready for release. Directed by blockbuster director Parasuram, the film is all set to release worldwide on May 12. Senior Editor Marthand K Venkatesh who is working on the film interacted with the media on this occasion. Here are some highlights of his interaction with the media.

What excited you when Director Parasuram narrated this story?
Director Parasuram previously made family dramas and feel-good love stories. But Sarkaru Vaari Paata has more high voltage mass elements. I have edited Geetha Govindam and Pokiri. SVP will be bigger than Pokiri, in terms of content and mass elements. You will have a good feel and everyone will connect to the message. Mahesh Babu looks more charming in this movie. Fans, families and the masses will love this movie. The first half is youthful and the second half is full of family emotion and action.

Why the comparison with Pokiri when there are more recent hits of Mahesh Babu?
Pokiri is a movie I worked as an editor. That’s why I compared it to Pokiri. Let’s just say the blockbuster hits when you see the hooligan rush. After watching the rushes, I said it will be much bigger Pokiri. In the first half of the movie, the hero and heroine's track will make you laugh big time. In the second half, there will be hilarity whenever they met. I strongly predict that this will work out big time in the theater. For Mahesh Babu fans, Sarkaru Vaari Paata will be a big festival.

The contribution of the producers to the visual grandeur?
Yes. I worked for the director's previous films. But for SVP, Mythri Movie Makers, GMB Entertainments, and 14 Reels Plus have come together. Production values are wonderful. They all aim to make the film rich. There is no compromise anywhere in filmmaking. Their dedication to the cinema is commendable. It was a very good experience.

Parasuram is known for his class films. But SVP looks like complete mass entertainer.
It contains all the elements. We will like hero and heroine characters. We will connect with the hero character. If there is such a feeling, while editing, we get a feel that the movie is a superhit. I connected to Sarkaru Vaari Paata very much during the editing. The film is sure to be a blockbuster.

How many movies have you done so far?
I have done 450 films so far. With Mahesh Babu, I worked for Rajakumarudu, Takkari Donga, Pokiri, Seethamma Vaakitlo Sirimalle Chettu and now, Sarkaru Vaari Paata.

You have traveled with Parasuram for a long time. What changes have been observed in him then and now?
Parasuram is an excellent writer. He writes Good dialogues. The hero and heroine characters are designed differently. Mahesh Babu's character will be excellent. We did not see such a character in recent times. There is a lot of fun in the hero characterization itself. I believe it will be a very big movie.

Director Parasuram is doing a film with a superstar for the first time. What did he tell you after locking the story?
Director Parasuram is very close to me. He narrated the story during Geetha Govindam itself. I told him it was awesome.

What is Mahesh Babu's reaction after watching SVP?
Everyone is very happy. SVP will be a big film and will definitely be a bigger hit than Pokiri

How did you have so long career?
Age has nothing to do with cinema. A good film has nothing to do with the generation of us. The story can be told even better as we have passed that generation.

Leakage problems have become more in recent times due to technology. What precautions are being taken on this?
We take only those whom we trust. We do not employ strangers at all. The reason for this is leakage. Initially there was a reel. Only printed reels should go out of the editing room and lab. But now the output goes out for everything. That's why we watermark date on everything.

What is your favorite movie of your career?
There is no such thing as a favorite. After watching some movies, we get a feel that, it would be good had we worked for the movie.

What is the role of the editor in making a film success?
If a director has a good relationship with the editor, it will be a very good film. The more arguments, the better the result.

What are your next projects?
Chiranjeevi's Godfather, Bhola Shankar and Samantha's Yashoda.
