And even if there is any slight disturbance to that combination and aura, the audience is likely to get upset. Earlier, this used to happen when young heroes remade some past vintage cult blockbusters. Now it is happening with sequel movies too.
Director Tarun Bhaskar's superhit cult film Ee Nagaraniki Emaindi is now getting ready with a sequel, which will be shot across Bangkok. It’s known that actor Srinath Maganti replaced Sai Sushanth Reddy in ENE 2, while Vishwaksen and Abhinav Gomatam, Venkatesh Kakumanu retained their original roles. However, Srinath explained that he got trolled big time the moment Tarun Bhaskar announced that he would be playing the role of Sai Sushanth now.
Speaking more about the trolling incident, Srinath Maganti clarified that he hasn't grabbed the role from the hands of Sai Sushanth Reddy, but only after the actor didn't want to star in the sequel, Srinath got the offer to fill the shoes. Also, the role was first offered to 30 Weds 21 webseries, fame, Chaitanya Rao, and only after his refusal, it came to Srinath Maganti.
