THe Ghost will show you Nagarjuna that you had watched and admired in Shiva, Antham and Rakshana, says Praveen Sattaru. He reveals his childhood admiration for his hero Akkineni Nagarjuna, and experiences of shooting the film The Ghost with Nag.
Highlights From An Exclusive Interview
This is the story I have written with Nagarjuna as my hero: “Producers wanted to make a film with Nagarjuna garu. We met and discussed the story line. He said ‘I am game for it’, and then I started writing. Right form first frame, he had been my protagonist. It is a tailor-made story and character for him.
Nag Sir as a Person: He is amazing not just as an actor but an individual. He is very knowledgeable. He knows technology, science, medicine to international and local politics. He leads a very disciplined life and he enjoys his life. He is a charmer and you just get charmed by him.”
About Ghost: A simple story of ex Interpol agent, who is skilled in various forms of combat and is coming back for family. It is a stylised action film.
Will there be sequels?: There is definitely portential for sequels and prequels also. For example, we released a video on Sword Tamaga. There is back story to how he got that when someone gifts him from Far East. But it all depends on how it does in box office.
