A proverb says, 'Do what you are best at and leave the rest to others'. Now if read it seems it has been written for Teja. A popular niche was for him as a cameraman and it didn't lag behind when he debuted as a director in 'Chitram'. The super hit movie did bring applause for his creativity and exceptional skills in direction. The success boosted him as he went on to make movies based on love stories in his unique style.
Time was good for Teja as those movies made it big and he became one of the acclaimed directors in the industry. But, luck is never static. The fame was short lived for the popular director. Socialites of the film fraternity have started bluntly saying that his name is deteriorating because he lacks creativity as a director. His recent dud 'Keka' stands tall depicting the verity in these comments.
Consequently, acknowledging the times Teja announced that he will not direct any Telugu films in future, and will remain as a producer. Disappointed by 'Keka's flop, he is planning to produce a new film titled 'Flop'. The person to direct this movie has not been confirmed yet.
Side by side, he has also started preparations to direct a Hindi movie. It seems the director frustrated at his failure in Tollywood is planning to take his first dip in Bollywood and test his luck. We have to wait for awhile and find out what's in store for him in Bollywood.
