Prakash Raj, Sneha starrer Ulavacharu Biryani isn���t a regular romantic drama. After all, not many films in recent times have focused on the relationship of a middle-aged couple. However, K S Rama Rao, who���s producing the film, believes that the aforementioned aspect will be a new experience for the audience.
���Ulavacharu Biryani has two love stories which have been handled with grace.
People have appreciated good films and I believe whatever film clicks with the audience is by nature a ���commercial��� entertainer,��� he says nonchalantly, adding, ���I really liked the Malayalam version of this film and I paid the advance to buy the remake rights in Telugu. Later, I realised that
Prakash Raj too was interested in the project. So, we decided to team up. Although we have never worked together before, he���s one of my closest friends in the industry.���
Ask him about his association with Ilayaraja, and he goes down memory lane, saying, ���I remember meeting him for the first time in 1978 for Sridhar���s Ilamai Oonjal Aadukirathu, a bilingual film which released in Telugu as Vayasu Pilichindhi. I had recommended his name to director Sridhar. Since then, he has been an important part of my journey in the film industry,��� he recalls. While he has a series of projects lined up this year, KS Rama Rao remains critical of how business of filmmaking has turned out in recent times. ���There���s a huge imbalance between the budget and revenue. The situation is beyond our control; however, it���s not going to stop people like me from doing our job,��� he signs off.
