Ravi Teja: Hero to Zero – Is He Realizing?

Mass Maharaaj Ravi Teja’s career is looking at the bottom of the barrel right now.

Its been a long time since he tasted success and his recent release, Mr Bachchan is not just a failure but a humiliation of sort for the actor and his fans.

Since 2018, Ravi Teja has thirteen releases. In that, only Krack is a success which will be cherished by fans. Dhamaka, though, a commercial success does not satisfy the fans because its success is more about Sreeleela and the songs. And then, there is Waltair Veerayya in which Ravi Teja is just a supporting role.

The remaining ten films are big failures at the box office.

There are allegations that Ravi Teja is more into money-making than anything else. Filmnagar is abuzz that he is strict about his remuneration and is working with those filmmaker who oblige to his conditions despite his track-record.

As a result, he is giving chances to ridiculous subjects. The actor is reportedly charging 25 Crore per film and is not in a mood to give more than sixty working days per a film. That way, he will get to do more films and make more money.

And then, his choice of heroines is also criticized very much. There is constant criticism that he is over-romancing younger heroines. Objectifying women is a serious problem in most Ravi Teja films. It has gone extra-mile in Mr Bachchan. He cares a damn and keeps doing that again and again.

No matter how you maintain your physique, no matter how you dance, you are still expected to play your age when you are into 50s. The age-gap between hero and heroines is fine but there should be a line when it comes to romance.

While the young lot of heroes struggle to promote films, there is Ravi Teja who is in a terrible form and makes no effort to market his films. If a star delivers ten disasters in his last thirteen films and still skip two out of the three events of his films, it is nothing but criminal to the film and also the producer.

Despite these failures and these things, the fans of the actor stayed with him in the thick and thin.

But Mr Bachchan seems to be the last test for their patience. Social Media is full of messages and letters from fans in which they narrate how the actor took them for granted and no longer stand for the image he earned over the years.

Usually, people often rate fans as sentimental fools who go beyond their limit in blackmailing or over-expecting from their favorite stars.

But for once, the fans are very much true and Ravi Teja is the classic case for a star who has taken him stardom and fans too lightly.

He is once a hero who excited many for his humble beginnings and from there rise to a considerable star. But from being a hero, he is all the way becoming a zero. The question is if he is realizing at least now!
