You score one hit and no doubt the whole film industry will be after
you. If you have doubts, you can ask heroes and directors of Tollywood.
They will tell stories of how producers pay those advances after they
score one hit.
Among the latest bunch of stars,
one hero who took advances from many producers is none other Mass Raja
Raviteja. They say that he generally collects advances from any producer
who visits him for his dates. However that theory failed him miserably as he focused less on script and more on money. The array of flops he scored might have opened his eyes by now. After the success
of 'Balupu', it is heard that Raviteja is not taking advance even if
the producer offers him. He is demanding them to come up with a story
and director, such that he can accept their advance. Except a movie in
the direction of script writer Bobby, and another one in Hindi, Ravi
hasn't committed to any film by now, say sources.
Cine analysts say that Raviteja has realized how continuous flops will affect his career and take him out of equation, after he found it tough to get distributors for Balupu. That's the story doing rounds in Film Nagar folks.
