A trend of sequels is hitting the film industry in Bollywood. 'Don, Dhoom, Krishh and Lage Raho Munnabhai' ' all these came as sequels are were proved big hits. In Telugu also, 'Shankar Dada Zindabad' is coming out as a sequel to 'Shankar Dada MBBS'.
Now, it is reliably learnt that noted director cum producer EVV Satyanarayana is planning to do some sequels. 'Pokiri' which rewrote the 75-year-old Telugu film history in collections had created a history by screening for 365 days in a centre (175 days in one theatre and another 189 days in another theatre based on shift system).
Speaking on the occasion, Puri Jagannath says, 'We are planning another film with Maheshbabu as hero in 2008 on Vaishno Academy banner. However, we are yet to rethink whether we should do a separate subject or bring out a sequel to 'Pokiri'. Screening of a film for 365 days in a centre after a long gap of 27 years is quite a memorable incident. We are very happy at the tremendous success of this movie.'
However, the dilemma is still persists whether Puri Jagannath had an idea to do a sequel to 'Pokiri' or not.
