Sekhar Kammula: Fidaa Is My Best Work Till Date
Cinesprint|August 2017

Sensible filmmaker Sekhar Kammula is one of the finest directors Telugu cinema has. Unfortunately, his recent outings failed to make much impact and now he is making his comeback with Fidaa.

Sekhar Kammula: Fidaa Is My Best Work Till Date

Here is an exclusive interview with the filmmaker:

What went wrong with your last film Anamika?

I was affected the issue of Nirbhaya and I was going to many colleges to motivate students. Each and every filmmaker is disturbed by certain aspects. Nirbhaya was one such incident that made a deep impact on me. That’s when I got an offer to remake Kahani. It was a woman centric film. That’s the reason why I removed pillow-faking aspect in climax. I didn’t want to show my heroine as a vulnerable character. After the release, I realised that my fans doesn’t want such films from me. As a filmmaker, I thought that it was an obligation to make a woman-centric film like Anamika.

How did Fidaa happen?

After Anamika, I decided to get back to romantic genre where my strength lies. I always wanted to do a film with USA backdrop. Dil Raju wanted to make a film with me and he suggested the name of Varun Tej. That’s how Fidaa happened.

How is it like shooting in USA?
