Nandamuri Balakrishna’s Bhagavanth Kesari is releasing on the 19th of this month as Dussehra Special. All eyes are on the film’s result as Balakrishna is going through a Golden Phase right now.
Even though it is quite common that Balakrishna will hog the entire limelight for his film, Bhagavanth Kesari is important for Anil Ravipudi more than anyone else.

Anil Ravipudi is one director who knows the mass pulse right and does perfect commercial packaging for his films. This ability has resulted in six commercial successes on a trot for him.
All his films are the biggest hits in the respective careers of his heroes.

But then, Ravipudi still has a problem that is hampering his growth. Maybe because of the comedy films he makes, he is always considered in a different bracket and does not go into that top league.
Except for Mahesh Babu, he has yet to work with a Tier-1 Hero.

The fact that Sarileru Neekevvaru had a significant portion of his style comedy ensured that he had to go back to Senior stars after that.
Ravipudi seems to have identified the issue and attempted something different with Bhagavanth Kesari.
Unlike his previous films, the focus is fully on a story driven by emotions.
There are instances where the work of the directors often gets overshadowed by the stardom of the actors. But with Balakrishna and this kind of film, Anil will definitely get his due credit if he delivers a hit.
The Tier-1 heroes these days have become very ambitious. We have seen them choosing directors outside of Tollywood as well. Anil Ravipudi has to deliver a big hit with Bhagavanth Kesari and prove everyone wrong.
He should make a statement that he is something beyond those comedy films. Only then, the Tier-1 heroes will take him seriously and opportunities will come his way.
