There
is
no
denying
that
2018
was
a
terrible
year
for
actor
Ravi
Teja.
He
started
off
the
year
with
Touch
Chesi
Choodu,
which
failed
to
live
up
to
the
expectations.
His
next
release
Nela
Ticket
sank
without
a
trace
and
failed
to
create
a
buzz
even
amongst
his
fans.
Thereafter,
he
tried
reviving
his
career
with
Srinu
Vaitla's
Amar
Akbar
Anthony,
which
proved
to
be
a
total
disaster.
Now,
here
is
some
big
news
for
his
fans.
With
his
career
stuck
in
the
doldrums,
the
'Mass
Maharaja'
has
decided
to
try
his
hand
at
direction.
According
to
the
latest
reports,
Ravi
Teja's
first
film
as
director
is
likely
to
feature
'Nandamuri
Hero'
Kalyan
in
the
lead.
If
this
indeed
happens,
it
might
help
the
Vikramarkudu
actor
taste
success
again.
Interestingly,
earlier
this
month,
Kalyan
Ram
hit
the
jackpot
when
118
opened
to
a
good
response
at
the
box
office
and
received
rave
reviews
from
critics.
Working
with
him
might
prove
to
be
a
smart
move
on
Ravi
Teja's
part.
This
is
a
developing
situation
and
one
might
get
some
clarity
about
it
in
the
days
to
come.
Meanwhile,
Ravi
Teja
is
working
on
his
next
film
Disco
Raja
which
features
him
in
a
new
avatar.
The
film,
to
be
directed
by
VI
Anand,
has
three
heroines
opposite
the
star.
He
is
also
likely
to
begin
work
on
the
Telugu
remake
of
Theri
next
month.
