After the stunning debacles of some of the recent biggies in Telugu cinema and overdose of comedy, are the production houses and actors looking for a change of genre in Telugu cinema? The answer to this seems to be a resounding yes going by some of the big projects that are coming up or are being set up.

After tasting multiple failures in different films with comedy and action, Jr NTR is reportedly going to change the kind of films he does from his next movie. There is no change in his current movie with Puri Jagannadh since it has been accepted long ago but in his upcoming films he has decided to make a family entertainer with Sukumar and then another one with Srikanth Addala as well. Even Mahesh Babu is reportedly asking for a change in tone of the subject of his upcoming film to family entertainer with action rather than action movie with family elements.

Pawan Kalyan had already made one which created sensation and the same route is now followed by Allu Arjun for his next film with Trivikram Srinivas. Even Ram Charan is getting ready with a family entertainer Govindudu Andari Vadele. He is also reportedly looking for another one on similar lines in his forthcoming films. And this basically covers almost all the top heroes in the industry today.

So what has brought about this change in industry all of a sudden? Massive success of films like Atharintiki Daredi with mother-in-law sentiment, Mirchi with parent’s sentiment and Race Gurram with brother sentiment, are said to be the reasons for this change of genres. All these films were predominantly sentiment based movies with comedy and action thrown in right proportions instead of being comedy entertainers relying on comedians and diluting the serious content.

How many of you are happy with genre change that is going to take place? Do you think this will be a relief from the routine comedy entertainers that we see today or is this extreme knee jerking reaction to failure of few big films based on comedy? Tell us what you think of it below.
