Usually, star heroes opt to do commercial entertainers and they hardly do experiments. They most probably reject characters with any disability. The number is countable of star heroes doing the challenging or deglamorous roles such as a blind, or a mute or a person with other physically disability.
Director Anil Ravipudi and producer Dil Raju revealed that they approached few star heroes to play the role of a visually challenged in Raja The Great. However, none had shown any interest to do the film, with a fear of fans may reject it. Ravi Teja accepted the challenge and he is in full confident of the film to become a super hit.
In fact, Anil Ravipudi’s debut movie Patas was initially offered to Ravi Teja. Nonetheless, he couldn’t do the film owing to other commitments then. When the director narrated him Raja The Great story, he immediately gave his nod for the project.
Dil Raju and few others opine that Raja The Great is sure shot going to be a commercial success and this success will give an answer to the stars who’re refusing experimental films.
