DYK Ravi Teja’s stardom began with a movie rejected by two top heroes?
In the film industry, stories often change hands. A director might write a script with a specific actor in mind, but if that actor turns it down, the story can be offered to someone else. This happened with the film Idiot, which was initially meant for Pawan Kalyan and Mahesh Babu. Both stars rejected the script, leading director Puri Jagannath to approach Ravi Teja, who immediately embraced the story.
Released in 2002, Idiot became a massive hit, solidifying Ravi Teja’s status as a leading actor. The film featured a talented cast, including Rakshitha as the heroine and notable actors like Prakash Raj and Kota Srinivasa Rao. Its music, composed by Chakri, became popular, and the film was celebrated across various centers.
Ravi Teja’s performance, coupled with Puri Jagannath’s engaging dialogues, created a memorable cinematic experience that resonated with audiences. The success of Idiot marked the beginning of a fruitful collaboration between Ravi Teja and Puri, leading to several successful films afterward.
