Selectively talented Tamil director Atlee had the knack of making winning commercial action films. Though he often faces allegations of routine stories, he more than makes up for it with his taking standards.
But for a change now, he appears to be coming out of this standard commercial trope for his upcoming film with Allu Arjun.
Rajinikanth vs NTR: Two Years, Two Epic Clashes
The glimpse video of the film that marks the collaboration between Allu Arjun and Atlee was released today on the occasion of Bunny's birthday.
The first thing that is highlighted in the glimpse video is the extensive usage of Hollywood graphic technicians. The clear implication here is that a new visual world using peculiar creatures is being created and conceived for the film.
Tollywood Killing Its Own Talent: No Loyalty?
Well, this N might sound exciting on paper, but there is a certain degree of doubt on the capabilities of the director.
Atlee is an established commercial director and can work with proper mass masala entertainments plot. But the question that is popping up here is if he has the right pedigree of imagination to conceive a creative world like the one that appears to be in contemplation for Bunny now. Handling such Hollywood technicians is not going to be very easy for anyone.
Only Superstar Film Out Of May?
The good thing here is that Allu Arjun is a very involved and hands on Hero. The very fact that Allu Arjun accompanied the director on United States trip to meet the Hollywood technicians is a clear indication that he is going to be involved with the production as well.
Having a hard-working and decisive hero, like Allu Arjun is going to come a long way for this film. His scrutiny is obviously going to add the textured layer of assurance.
Atlee we have to deliver beyond his word to bring such a seemingly peculiar script to life. More importantly, there is no yardstick to judge Atlee on this front for the time being.
