Ravi Teja: How Did He Win Over Balakrishna's Fans with the 'Aavesham' Remake?
Among the stars of Tollywood, Ravi Teja is known as the 'Mass Maharaja'. Having delivered blockbusters such as 'Idiot', 'Bhadra', 'Venky', 'Vikramarkudu', 'Kick', 'Mirapakay', 'Power', 'Bengal Tiger', and 'Raja The Great', Ravi Teja hasn't been seen much in recent years. Although his recent films 'Dhamaka' and 'Eagle' seemed promising, they failed to deliver the level of success expected of Ravi Teja's caliber. His latest, 'Mr. Bachchan', also faced a dismal failure. Given his string of flops, it appears that the Mass Maharaja is taking a daring step by getting ready to remake a successful Malayalam movie.
Ravi Teja in the Remake of 'Aavesham'!
The Malayalam film 'Aavesham', directed by Jeethu Madhavan and featuring Fahadh Faasil in the lead, was an action-comedy that released this year and achieved great success, grossing over ₹150 crores at the box office. There has been talk in Tollywood about remaking this film in Telugu for some time. According to the latest buzz, Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja has acquired the remake rights of this film. Ravi Teja's acquisition of the rights has led to widespread speculation that he will star in the remake himself, to be produced under his own production company. An official announcement may also be coming soon, exciting Ravi Teja's fans.
Choosing Over Balakrishna...
There were rumors that Nandamuri Balakrishna would star in remake 'Aavesham' in Telugu, as Fahadh Faasil's role seemed a good fit for him. Balakrishna's fans even counted the film as one of his future projects. However, unexpectedly, Ravi Teja secured the project instead, charming Balakrishna's fans. Yet, Balakrishna's fans also say that Fahadh Faasil's role suits Ravi Teja well and believe that he will do justice to the various shades of the character. The question of who will direct this intriguing remake is currently generating much interest.
Struggling to Overcome the Flop Streak!
Ravi Teja, who once entertained fans with hit films, is now struggling with a series of flops. Of his last ten films, only one ('Krack') was a hit, and two others ('Dhamaka' and 'Eagle') received average feedback. The remaining seven were outright failures at the box office. The less said about 'Mr. Bachchan', the better, as it drew significant criticism and trolling for Ravi Teja. Critics have pointed out that he is not choosing age-appropriate roles and seems more interested in romantic scenes with much younger actresses. These criticisms have led Ravi Teja to decide that he must achieve a hit somehow and believes that remaking the successful Malayalam movie 'Aavesham' would be a safe bet.
Will 'Aavesham' Be a Good Fit?
'Aavesham' presents a unique story where three college students seek help from a local gangster, Ranga (Fahadh Faasil), to deal with their seniors. As the plot unfolds, Ranga forms a bond with the students, but complications arise due to his character, leading to an intriguing situation. Fahadh Faasil's characterization is a special attraction in this story. Given that the character suits senior actors well, initially, Balakrishna's name came up. Now that Ravi Teja's name has emerged, many wonder how he will fit into this role. There's no doubt that Ravi Teja can handle it, as the role demands a mix of comedy, action, and aggression, all of which he can deliver convincingly.
