Prashanth Varma now aims at big-budget films post-Hanuman success!

Prashanth Varma’s upcoming films

Tollywood director Prasanth Varma has become the talk of the town after the massive success of the superhero film Hanuman. The young director has plans for bigger and grander films from Prashnath Cinematic Universe( PCU). He also revealed that he doesn’t want to waste his precious time on stars.

In a recent conversation, he said, “I knew it would be liked by the audience when we watched it before the release. But the box-office numbers are something we never expected or aimed at. This will help me make one more film.”  ”I directed a music video and That video did well, so my friend said, ‘Let’s do more’. That led to me making the short film A Silent Melody.”

He further said, “After this film, people will not come to me with big budgets. They will say, ‘Itne kam mein bana diya hai toh zyaada kyun?’ [But] I will collaborate with people who believe in a big vision. I was down and out personally and professionally when I wanted to make Zombie Reddy. My producer then came to me and said, ‘What do you want to make?’ and I told him. He just said ‘Sounds fun, let’s do it’. I was blessed to have people like these backing me.”

The National Award-winning filmmaker also directed the first-ever Telugu zombie horror film, Zombie Reddy (2021). Initially set to become a software engineer, he found his calling after directing a music video.

The superhero film starring Tejja Sarja Varalaxmi Sarathkumar, Samuthirakani, and Vinay Rai was made with an estimated budget of Rs 40 crores and earned more than Rs 250 crores.
