There is a talk that Sharwanand copied Nani’s mannerisms for ‘Mahanubhavudu’ and hence, it seemed like a Nani movie. Clarifying on this doubt, Maruthi said that he applied his mannerisms to his hero. “Maybe my body language is the same while working for both the movies,” said Maruthi.
Maruthi is very particular about the genre he chooses for making a movie. He wants his subjects to be in such a way that nobody should be able to touch what he had touched. No one can make another ‘Prema Katha Chitram’ or ‘Bus Stop’. Even if they try, they won’t meet the same success.
Like, no one must be able to make another movie with forgetfulness like he did for ‘Bhale Bhale Magadivoy’ and OCD in ‘Mahanubhavudu’. Even if they do, they need to make something better than what he dealt with. As a filmmaker, Maruthi can see glimpses of his real-life character in the characters he writes.
