Why Jana Gana Mana will be Puri's comeback film.
I know, the project Is currently shelved right now, but Here Is why I believe that, If the film is finished and released, It will be puri's comeback film.
We know that Puri's recent releases are terrible and pale in comparison to his films back In the day, that Is most likely due to his lack of Interest In making these films. Ismart was a cash grab, Mehabooba and Romantic are 2 scripts, he might've thought were deep, but they were lacking in direction, with the latter being weak in script as well.
I'd say that that the last film he was really looking forward to making, was Jana Gana Mana, as he wrote the script way back after the release of Businessman, with Bob as the protag. Then It was VD, now It Is shelved.
What If, Tollywood gives one more chance to this fallen legend? What If his next movie is JGM? I believe that It Is that one project he won't dare mess up, or slack off to finish, and will give his 100%, to finish.
