SMS Babu! Time To Change Game Plan

The hungama created by the film SMS is finally washed out with mixed reviews and trade talks. Now, it's time for SMS Babu, aka Sudhir Babu to change his game-plan, say analysts.

Generally, a star with so much of pushing from a films centric family and no winning traits are often rejected by Tollywood. Take the case of Akkineni fielder Sumanth or Nandamuri batsman Tarakratna, who are launched with huge family-fare before getting bowled at Box Office.

Likewise, Sudhir too got the deserved publicity through the presence of his 'baava' Superstar Mahesh. Though the image of Superstar Krishna and the 'family' tag helped in pulling few audiences this time, it may not work again. The flick got an average response at the Box Office, while Sudhir got insipid reception. He needs to work a lot on his acting skills and especially his voice modulation before taking any further assignments. Till now, pale scripts have never worked for any hero's second movie. There should be something bold and head-hitting from him, otherwise chances to afloat for a long time will diminish faster, say critics. Time for Sudhir to stop the 'japam' of Superstar Krishna and Mahesh it looks!

Villain's wife becomes hot choice

The segment of character actors is rather tough and demanding. Apparently, one has to look appealing but at the same time deliver with performances. Glamour alone will not suffice. As a result, the Tollywood circuit tends to have few small gaps in having a good choice of character actors.

But now, it is heard that one lady is becoming hot property for that. She is none other than Rohini, wife of the iconic villain Raghuvaran. Sources say Rohini is slowly becoming the hot favorite for character roles in Tollywood. She was seen as the mother of Nani in 'Ala Modalaindi' and now she is seen in 'SMS' as mother of Sudhir Babu.

The cine folks reveal that Rohini has been part of quite a number of Tamil projects and she was tagged as one of the natural performers since quite some time. Now, with her recent set of performances, the chances are that Rohini will have a longer innings to play in Tollywood.
