Ravi Teja
Trolled
Typical
Formula
R
15 years back, heroes are opted for a Telugu movie based
on the script, the director planned. They only choose
those heroes, who suits their script. Moreover, there are
not much legacies in those days, and that is the reason,
the finest films are made with the apt directors.
But as time passed, huge
number of legacies started
entering and scripts are made,
based on heroes image.
Meanwhile, the heroes, who
do not have any background,
had to step backward with
no option left. Heroes like
Srikanth, Jagapathi Babu,
Rajashekar etc, come under
the same genre.
A person with no background,
coming into the films, with
the intention of turning as
a hero, would be tough in
the days. But even in the
toughest time like this, hero
Ravi Teja is able to make
his mark his identical mass
entertainment, thus trolling
the typical formula (legacies
entry throwing out heroes with
no background).

2. Obstacles did not
ignore Ravi’s hero
career
Ravi Teja started his on
screen career, doing small
roles in other hero movies. He
was identified well for those
roles and director Srinu Vaitla
pulled Ravi Teja, in his debut
film ‘Neekosam’.
But unfortunately, due to the
heavy violence and dimness,
Neekosam could not attract
many. Meanwhile, Puri
Jagannath, who had a super
hit through Badri, was in the
shooting his next film called
‘Itlu Sravani Subramanyam’
with Pawan Kalyan in the
lead.
But, due to some unknown
reasons, Pawan walked out of
the film and it was then, Puri
opted Ravi Teja in the same
film.
Idiot made his
identity
Finally, Itlu Sravani
Subramnayam movie was the
first super hit to Ravi Teja.
Without much wait, he signed
another movie called ‘Avunu
Vaalliddaru Ishtapaddaru’
under Vamsi’s direction. Even
with all his co-stars. He did
not mind to give special
appearances and voice overs,
in other hero films and that
made him liked by many top
makers in the industry.
Stardom through
Vikramarkudu
No one can deny the fact
that, Vikramarkudu is the
milestone film in Ravi Teja’s
career. Along with the naughty
and massy kind of character,
Ravi Teja’s full length acting
potentiality, through Vikram
Rathod’s character was out.
that movie was successful
and then came Idiot, under
Puri direction again.
It was with that movie, Ravi’s
identity was felt on the screen.
His massy dialogue delivery
and punch dialogues, were
hilariously applauded in the
theatre and from there, he
started doing the similar kind
of films and emerged as the
‘mass raja’.
Away from
controversies
Not involving in any type
of controversies, Ravi Teja
always played a safe game
After that movie, he could
earn separate fan following
and even termed as the
minimum guarantee hero.
Ravi Teja was recently seen
in Bengal Tiger movie. After
Kick 2 debacle, even Bengal
Tiger could not reach the
expectations of the fans.
Moreover, his lean looks are
worrying his fans and are
opining that, it is killing his
strength. Hope Ravi Teja
notes these points and starts
concentrating on building up
the cheeks and thus get back
into fine mass entertainers
again.
Ravi Teja started
his on screen
career, doing
small roles
in other hero
movies. He was
identified well
for those roles
and director
Srinu Vaitla
pulled Ravi Teja,
in his debut film
‘Neekosam’.
