If the star director and stylish star’s latest film SOS has garnered huge hype, it’s because of Trivikram’s previous release, the industry hit ‘Atharintiki Daaredi’ and of course, Allu Arjun’s stardom after ‘Race Gurram’. Amidst mixed talk, it becomes the responsibility of the director and the hero of the film to do extentive promotions which would definitely help the film’s revenues.
But we see, after release, media’s attention is mostly on the writer-director of the film Trivikram. The otherwise very reserved Trivikram is seen taking care to appear before media and promote the film in big way. In this process, media almost ignored Allu Arjun, the lead hero. While Samantha is doing her bit for promotions, other two heroines were totally absent from the scene.
Coming to the lead hero, Bunny chose a different role, a bit away from his action image. Being from mega family, Bunny has huge fan base and his presence in the promotional activities would undoubtedly lead towards better collections for the movie. Though his performance was decent, it wasn’t outstanding from the critics point of view. Of course, SOS might be a forerunner for the experimental characters he might choose in future.
