‘Pushpa’ director Sukumar turns a year older today
On the occasion of his 53rd birthday, celebs from the film industry have sent the filmmaker warm birthday greetings.
Hyderabad: Bandreddi Sukumar, one of the most renowned directors of South Indian cinema, turns a year older on Wednesday. Sukumar has not only made the Telugu industry proud with his filmmaking style but also made his way to the hearts of moviegoers across the country with his blockbuster pan-India movie ‘Pushpa: The Rise’, which did well in Russia as well.
The success of the movie ‘Arya’ provided the filmmaker, who began his career as a scriptwriter for Telugu movies, with a significant break in his career. The debut filmmaker also has a close relationship with Stylish Star Allu Arjun, who has become a force to reckon with in Indian cinema with ‘Pushpa’, which smashed the box-office records all over.
