Director Venky Atluri has achieved remarkable success with Lucky Baskhar, featuring Dulquer Salmaan and Meenakshi Chaudhary. The film has received glowing reviews from both critics and audiences. During a recent media event, producer Naga Vamsi and director Venky Atluri shared their excitement over the movie’s success.
Venky stated, “I’ve always wanted to create a film with a banking backdrop. While I typically focus on love stories, this time I wanted to do something meaningful, which inspired me to write the story for Sir. With Lucky Baskhar, I aimed to push the boundaries further and create something truly unique, which led to this story.”
He went on to say, “The movie is resonating with both young audiences and families. Surprisingly, even without fight sequences, the mass audience is enjoying it. Every time the hero wins, they feel as if they’ve won too, and that’s why the response has been so strong.”
Atluri also mentioned, “I conducted research on banking and shares. My father’s friend, Mr. Kutumba Rao, has extensive knowledge in these areas, so I traveled with him for a few days, learned from him, and integrated those insights into the story.”
“I’m glad to see that the dialogues are being appreciated,” he added. “I was inspired to enter the film industry by Mani Ratnam and Trivikram Srinivas, and you can certainly see Trivikram’s influence in my dialogues.”
Discussing Dulquer Salmaan’s commitment, he noted, “Despite being a star, Dulquer didn’t hesitate to perform a scene where he had to hold someone’s feet. His dedication is what makes that scene so well-received.”
