‘Laila’ ruins ‘Nagavalli’

  • IndiaGlitz, [Monday,May 24 2010]

Natural disasters destroying sets is not something we usually hear. But the recent cyclone ‘Laila’ has washed the sets of Venkatesh’s new movie and sequel to Chandramukhi, ‘Nagavalli’ away!

News from the flm’s unit is that the set erected at Vijayanagaram district has been destroyed completely forcing shooting to stop. A grand set was built but has faced a wholesome damage to producer Bellamkonda Suresh. A new set is being erected now and the shooting will commence after a couple of days.

Director P Vasu is meanwhile shooting other scenes at outdoor location to save time, sources inform. Reports of such incidents have happened in the past with P.Vasu’s script. Actress Soundarya, after completing her part for ‘Aptha Mithra’ , the original version of Chandramukhi in Kannada, died in a helicopter crash. When the sequel ‘Aptha Rakshaka’ was made Kannada hero Vishnuvardhan passed away. Though hero Venkatesh didn’t find it as a reason to connect the tragic stories to the movie, most observers feel a jinx is attached to the script!

So rumour mills find another reason nothing really creditable. Well it is for people to believe or not to believe! ‘Laila’ also ruined a lot of crops suggesting that it has nothing to do with movies!
