M9 News Journalist Nishant sat with Director Indraganti Mohana Krishna ahead of the release of his Saragapani Jathakam starring Priyadarshi and Roopa Kodavayur on December 20th.
Indraganti narrated the idea of Saragapani Jathakam, his mixed opinion about Astrology, and some of the stunning predictions that came true. He also talked about some very interesting but bizarre suggestions astrologers give.
We asked him how it is difficult for filmmakers like him when loud and action films are taking centerstage. “Dolby has this sound scale like -10,-8, -7, etc. The lower the number, the more dangerous it is for humans. Dolby people say acceptable sound is -18 and our big star films deliver -10. I hate using sound to create that adrenaline rush. But people getting used to this loudness is a challenge for filmmakers like me,” he said.

He accepts the fact that people are only spending money on big spectacle films and are relegating others to OTT Watch.
At the same time, he also acknowledged the fact that comedy films these days are more character-driven while his kind of comedy is more situation-driven. He believes Saragapani Jathakam is the kind of film the entire family can sit down and watch comfortably and be happy.
