Director
SS
Rajamouli
has
taken
a
break
from
his
filmy
activities
and
enjoying
his
leisurely
hours
by
watching
new
movies.
After
the
movie
Sudigadu,
the
blockbuster
Eega
maker
watched
director
K
Raghavendra
Rao's
Shirdi
Sai
and
couldn't
stop
raving
Akkineni
Nagarjuna's
performance
as
Sai
Baba.
The
much-awaited
movie
Shirdi
Sai
has
released
in
theatres
across
the
globe
on
September
6
and
SS
Rajamouli
watched
the
film
at
Prasads
in
Hyderabad
on
the
same
day
afternoon.
Soon
after
he
came
out
of
the
cinema
hall,
the
director
took
to
his
Twitter
page
to
share
his
excitement
about
Nagarjuna's
acting.
SS
Rajamouli
tweeted,
"One
of
the
best
examples
of
an
actor
transforming
COMPLETELY
into
the
role.
Hats
off
to
nagarjuna
garu
as
SaiBaba.
For
me
it
is
as
good
as
Ben
kingsley
transforming
into
Gandhi
and
Peddayana
transforming
into
SriKrishna.
I
think
Nag
is
destined
for
much
much
more.
Proud&Respect!!
(sic)"
It
should
be
recalled
here
that
Nagarjuna
had
also
praised
SS
Rajamouli
to
sky
high
after
watching
his
recent
release
Eega.
The
King
had
tweeted,
"Now
I
know
what
SS
Rajamouli
stands
for,
it
stands
for
Sure
Shot
Rajamouli.
Now
with
EEGA
he's
become
an
icon
for
the
telugu
film
industry!!"
However,
the
movie
Shirdi
Sai
has
received
positive
reviews
from
the
film
critics.
Besides
Nagarjuna's
amazing
performance,
the
film
also
boasts
of
Raghavendra
Rao's
wonderful
script
and
direction,
MM
Keeravani's
music
and
Gopal
Reddy's
picturiation.
The
movie
has
received
superb
response
from
audience
on
the
first
day.
