Some people are commenting that Shobu Yarlagadda is doing all this to get into the good books of Rajamoui and get him to do one more film for his banner.
Shobu Yarlagadda, whose film Morning raga starring K Raghavendra Rao’s son Prakash Kovelamudi, was considered for Oscar nominations in 2006. So he knows what the process is going to be like.
