Telugu actor Sumanth Prabhas, known for the 2023 film ‘Mem Famous’, will be next seen in the upcoming ‘Godari Gattupaina’ directed by Subhash Chandra. The teaser has received a positive response upon its release. Recently, during the teaser launch event, the young actor shared why he chose this film after listening to many stories.As per a report by CineExpress, after the success of ‘Mem Famous’, Sumanth Prabhas did not rush into signing new projects. He revealed that he listened to nearly 80 stories after his debut. However, none of them excited him enough to say yes. He wanted his second film to feel special and different. When debut director Subhash Chandra approached him with ‘Godari Gattupaina’, things changed instantly.“I heard nearly 80 stories, but none of them excited me. When Subhash Chandra came to me with Godari Gattupaina, I agreed instantly. I loved the story and the way he narrated it. I have also seen his short films — he has made nearly 100 of them. I watched many of them during my college days and was inspired by the quality of his work,” he said. He added that when the director approached him, he was on “cloud nine” and wanted to work with him immediately. “When the same person approached me with a full-length script, I was on cloud nine. I immediately wanted to do this film. It’s like opening a window and seeing a lush Godavari village with greenery and a beautiful river, that’s how this film feels,” Sumanth added.Speaking about the shooting locations of ‘Godari Gattupaina’, it will be different from his last film ‘Mem Famous’. While the earlier movie was rooted in Telangana, this upcoming film is set in the Godavari region. Suanth mentioned this was his first time shooting in those areas. He added that the Godavari region surprised him with its beauty, culture, and warmth. He described it as more than just a river and called it a strong cultural emotion.
