Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 77202, member: 636"] Director Venky Kudumula launched his production company, What Next Entertainments, and says he wants to help newcomers break into the film industry since he remembers how tough that grind was for him. The banner's first project stars Malayalam actor Anaswara Rajan opposite a mystery lead whose identity drops along with the title reveal. Composer S Thaman is handling the music, while cinematographer Raja Mahadhevan shoots the visuals under debutant director Mahesh Uppala. Kudumula mentioned cinema has always been his thing, and he figures supporting fresh talent beats just making his own movies. The filmmaker thinks giving someone their first shot would matter more than any box office success. The production venture apparently signals his shift toward nurturing creative voices instead of only directing projects himself. [/QUOTE]
