Bobbili Raja II, first among sequels?

You have to give it to them. Tollywood heroes, producers and directors have a roving eye. Not for quality. But for stealing ideas. Or rather getting 'inspired' by them. Fed up with his carefully cultivated image for the last God alone knows how many odd years, Venkatesh wants to do something different. Which means doing the same thing in a different mould. Which again means doing the same old thing. One morning, predictably after he heard about the stupendous succes of Dhoom: 2 and Lage Raho Munnabhai, he got a brain wave that he too should go the Bollywood way and do sequels. Not for anything else. Only to rake in the moolah. But instead of calling and telling producers or directors, for some strange reason he has started dropping hints. What more, he has already made up his mind about the films he want to do sequels -- Bobbili Raja (Is he asking B Gopal to approch him with a script for BR II?) and Gharshana. But why only those two Venkibhai? Why not Chanti, which put you in the top league from a little somebody? Sorry, sorry, you have your own reasons. But why Gharshana, which hasn't done too well at the box office? Anyway it's your own business, we can only wish you all the best.

PS: What would they call Bobbili Raja -- II? Bobbili Raja: Return to the Jungle?
