72 year old Man Collects 720 Crore Rupees

A rare phenomenon has occurred in the Indian Film industry as two films written by the same person is raining hundreds of crores at the box office at the same time giving tough competition to each other and both winning. The films we are talking about are ‘Baahubali’ and ‘Bhajrangi Bhaijaan’ and the genius behind them is is ace Telugu screenwriter Vijayendra Prasad.

Vijayendra Prasad is seventy two years young and he proves it in his writing, the most scintillating and youthful love scenes, thrilling action scenes in films like ‘Maghadheera’, ‘Chathrapathi’ ‘Vikramarkudu’ and ‘Baahubali’. The septuagenarian is the backbone of his son and today’s number one Indian director, S.S. Rajamouli.

Both ‘Baahubali’ and ‘Bhajrangi Bhaijaan’ born from the pen of Vijayendra Prasad have garnered a combined gross of INR 720 crores till date and the lifetime collections of these films could well touch the astronomical 1000crores. A great achievement indeed by this ageless screenwriter who has finally been noticed by the world cinema fraternity and we at IG Tamil wish good health and greater glory to the living legend expecting more from his pen in the future.
