Handsome Aravind Swamy’s re-entry into Tollywood with Mega Power Star’s ‘Dhruva’ is of course a good move because aged stars of yester year are endeavoring with their new dreams taking up stylish elderly roles. Transformation of Jagapathi Babu from a failure ridden hero to a victorious villain and superb supporting artist is another best example in recent times. None knows what time offers at certain point of career and fortunes really favored him.
However, a section of film analysts opining on Aravind Swamy can become a potential threat to Jagapathi Babu is a theory which can be outright rejected. JB holds a place close to our hearts because of strong Telugu affinity in his looks, body language and dialogue delivery. To be far more specific, JB made a place even in Tamil hearts portraying important characters.
Age, physical attributes, flexibility to perform in mass or class scripts and many more of such artistic qualities one can find in Jagapathi Babu have no match with other contemporaries. At the best, Aravind Swamy can only be a stylish villain to sparkle in couple of films. More than anything else, it is impossible for producers to satisfy his remuneration demands.
