King Nagarjuna has always been a shrewd businessman. If as a
producer he has always chosen the right projects without going
over-board for the sake of producing films, as someone looking after the
affairs of Annapurna Studios, he has been very pragmatic in his moves.
He recently launched a film
institute
in a grand scale. It's the pride of Hyderabad. It may not be first of
its kind but it's unique in way because of people associated with it.
Nagarjuna got some top class
filmmakers to work for his institute. Mani Ratnam, Kamal Haasan, Prakash Raj and Suhasini are involved in this project.
Nagarjuna should be praised for setting forth with the aim of driving
a transformation in the media and entertainment sector. In his own
words, which he made to a popular English-language daily, "Annapurna
Studio's latest strategic partnership with
Reliance MediaWorks (RMW) is
futuristic
and one that seeks to drive new growth opportunities in transforming
the media and entertainment sector in the country." Let us hope Nag
brings all the laurels to Tollywood and
Andhra Pradesh.
