Although, Ravi Teja is a star of his own and can commence a considerable collections for his films, but directors are playing spoil sport to his career. Apart from facing stiff competitions from linear stars like Pawan, Mahesh, NTR and Ram Charan, the Balupu star is suffering due to few directors who are overspending. Even though, Balupu was declared huge hit, but producers PVP lost few crores due to extra-expenditure by director Gopichand.

And now its turn of writer-turned-director Ravindra, to cause loses for producer Rockline Venkatesh, as he went beyond the specified budget limit. “Both Balupu and Power have surely suffered overspending and didn’t leave any table profit to producers, despite a bankable star like Ravi Teja,” shares a source. Its better for Ravi to work with directors, who stick to the limits, than taking blame, for no fault of his.
