Speaking about ‘Badrinath’ he said, “This is one such story that it will attract the movie lovers of any language. The emotions in the story will touch anybody’s heart. I prepared pakka script of ‘Badrinath’ and got ready to direct this film in 2004 only. I was to direct the film under Gopikrishna banner but later the project was shelved due to difference in opinion with the producer regarding a sequence in the story. Had I changed the scene, I would have become a director by then, but since I believed the story I did not make changes. After 6 years, the same script is now taking shape under the direction of VV Vinayak on Allu Aravind’s banner.”
