Nagarjuna is known to rope in young talent. Initially, he did this for himself, now he wants them to direct his sons’ films. Chandoo Mondeti too is one such young director who got an opportunity from Nag.
Chandoo, who proved himself with Karthikeya, got to work with Naga Chaitanya. His first film with Chay – Premam – did have a successful run. But, Savyasachi, the next film, has disappointed. During the shoot of Savyasachi, it appeared as if Akkineni stable would not let him go and that even Nag would work with him. It was even said that even Akhil would work with him.
But all that appears to have changed with Savyasachi’s failure. Now, he is said to be out of Akkineni camp and is set to do a film with Sharwanand. Both reportedly had story discussions. As of now, Sharwa is doing a gangster-based film with Sudheer Varma. Even Sudheer Varma churned out a hit like Swamy Rara and then did Dochey for Naga Chaitanya. After this film failed, he came out of Akkineni stable. Initially, it was said that Chandoo would do Karthikeya 2. But, the script did not turn out to be all that enthusing. So, he is now doing the film with Sharwa.
