Chiranjeevi opens Q&A Session after the Success of Godfather
How did god father come to be?
Sukumar thought that ram charan and I would form a good team for the remake of Lucifer. He was the initial choice to helm the picture. Sukumar, however, was unavailable because of his other commitments. Few filmmakers applied, but they were hesitant because the film lacked any commercial components like music or leading ladies. At last, Mohan Raja joined the team. He substituted new characters for some of the original ones.
Have you heard any critical remarks?
I didn't get any criticism for leaving out any music, and Thaman deserves credit for not giving us the impression that songs were essential to the story. He provided many highs using the BGM.
Did you think it was ok to change the script?
While attempting to make the film considerably more interesting, we sought to maintain the original flavours. This film is a political drama. We wanted to give brother-sister feelings greater room than political components. We considered presenting the audience with something new. There is always a comparison with the original when remakes of popular movies are concerned.
Do you think telugu has too few stories?
Since making telugu movies requires such big expenditures, we, to be completely honest, don't dare to make experimental movies. However, OTT is changing the audience's perspective, thus we must also try experimental subjects. I'm searching for a broad range of topics. I'm also prepared to collaborate with new filmmakers.
Will you do unique roles in other languages like GodFather's salman did?
Actors shouldn't have to struggle with language. I'm prepared to collaborate with other stars.
