Vijayendra Prasad is the only writer perceiving great victories on home turf and also Bollywood. Any writer cannot dream of better and big successes than that of two back to back 400 Crores movies in Telugu and Hindi. ‘Bahubali’ and ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’ have been two super hit films in last few weeks taking the Indian cinema’s commercial market by many steps high. Well, budding writers would obviously love to study a leaf or two in Vijayendra Prasad’s journey and try to inspire from them.
‘For a writer to succeed in his department, one needs to have thorough knowledge on mindset of audience. You should stop thinking like a Balcony ticket purchaser. Come down and start behaving like a front bencher without any logics. Real inspiration for me to write new stories is ‘Sholay.’ I don’t know how many times I watched this film. Even today when I see this film again and again, I can spot on new threads and new dimensions in story.
Whenever I begin to write a new story, it has become mandatory for me to beam at ‘Sholay.’ This film has penetrated so deep into my thoughts,’ Vijayendra Prasad says. In fact, this master classic flick is studied as Elementary Text Book by many writers. When you have strong basics, any problem looks simple and easy to solve. So, believe in ‘Sholay’ and we are sure to get many more commercial lines.
