EVV to direct Aryan Rajesh


Though Aryan Rajesh, son of senior producer and director EVV Satyanarayana, made his debut as hero through 'Hai' produced by Dr D Ramanaidu under his father's direction. But it failed to make a mark at the Box Office. None of his films gave him an expected break.He played hero in 'Sontham, Aadanthe Ado Type, Leela Mahal Centre' and of these only 'Leela Mahal Centre' ran for 100 days and others proved duds.Though his film 'Evadi Gola Vaadidi' produced by Lagadapati Sirisha and directed by EVV ran for Silver Jubilee, the credit went to the director and other comedians but the hero failed to get any kind of credit.It is worth mentioning here that EVV's younger son Naresh proved himself a hero and is giving successive hits. So, EVV had decided to give a good hit to his elder son at any cost.So, he is planning a film in his own direction on their own banner with Aryan Rajesh as hero. The film is most likely to go to sets in November.
