Can Rana Beat Chiranjeevi?

The time has come for another star from the south to take the litmus test in the north. He is Daggubati Rana and unlike his predecessors like Chiranjeevi, Rajinikanth, Kamal Haasan who proved their mettle in the south and went north, Rana is foraying with just one film under his belt. So now, the big question is- can Rana beat the likes of Chiranjeevi?

One can recall how Chiru attempted for a footing in Bollywood with films like ‘Pratibandh’ ‘Aaj Ka Goondaraj’. Now, Rana is going there with his ‘Dum Maro Dum’. However, the cine pundits say that despite having immense dance talent and superstar aura Chiru couldn’t do anything in Bollywood.

A noted analyst said “As for Rana, he doesn’t even have the dance talent like Chiranjeevi or a good number of hits to create an impact. But he is already feeling like Bollywood hero. Well, it is better he holds his horses and turn back the wheel of time to see how his seniors fared. If he is able to make a consistent success graph in Bollywood, it would call for nothing less than a miracle.”
