Vaishnav Tej - VijayBuchi Babu Sana directorial has not only been special for Vaishnav Tej and Krithi Shetty, but for Tollywood as well. The film released after theaters opened post the first wave and the box-office tsunami it generated by minting Rs 100 crores gross is unparalleled by big stars in their debut film itself.

Uppena now continues the same tsunami and beats the top stars on the small screen too. Released for the first time ever on Star Maa it got phenomenal ratings of 18.5, while Tamil superstar Thalapathy Vijay’s Master only garnered 4.8 ratings. The ratings have been released as per BARC. In fact such a rating has not been achieved by top league actors too.

Well, Uppena has proved that if the script is powerful, even debutants can increase the footfalls in theaters with their sheer acting prowess and doesn’t require any huge stars. Such films also boost independent filmmakers’ morale. Buchu Babu Sana and the lead actors upon the release were hailed by the industry top stars.

Devi Sri Prasad’s music has helped the movie big time and so are the Mythri Movie Makers production values and promotions. Meanwhile, Buchi Babu Sana is said to collaborate with a Top Star for his second venture. On the other side, Vaishnav The has bagged good offers from leading production houses, and so is Krithi Shetty who is occupied with RAPO15.
