Rise To Fame

Dr. Ramanaidu was so impressed with his judgement skills and perception towards film making that, he was offered to direct a film under the banner of Suresh Productions. That is where Preyasi Raave has been developed; the story was given by Posani Krishna Murali. Ideally it was Hero Sumanth who was to do the role, but since there was a factor of hero being dead at the end due to some health alignment, this wouldn’t match hero Sumanth image and people will take him into this character regularly, so he declined the offer. That is where Hero Meka Srikanth came down into the picture as there was some fresh image required. Meka Srikanth and Chandrra Mahes association has been built so well during the filming of Preyasi Raave. Initially Srikanth has always been having reluctant expectations on Preyasi Ravve, as his last movies have been bombed on the box office. But, he has been always a best performer, when it comes to delivering, what is required for the film. He is a director’s actor and since the release of Preyasi Raave on 19th Nov 1999, there has been no looking back for Chandrra Mahes and entire cast and crew, where the entire cast & crew has been immensely supported by Chiranjeevi Garu and many more big film personalities Ayodhya Ramayya starring Srihari, Bhanu Priya with complete mass backdrop was the next movie and it was a splendid hit in his career.

Joruga Husharuga and then okkade starring Srihari and many others hits to his hat, when Hero Sir Hari lost his glory of Hero stardom, he regained the same after the movie release of Okkade and then, there was no looking back for Sri Hari as a Real Star Chandrra Mahes has produced and directed the film ‘love in Hyderabad’ introducing K.
