Boyapati’s Logic Behind Hero’s Dual Role

There are a few most common observations anyone can make out of Boyapati’s movies like heavy action blocks, the women heavily dressed and always, blood spilling everywhere, and hundreds of goons singlehandedly taken down by the hero. Most of the scenes in the movie lack the logic. But there is one more common point in Boya’s most recent movies which is the dual role of hero.

Boyapati was asked the same in a recent interview and he has an explanation for the dual role which is logical from the director’s point of view. For Simha, Legend, Akhanda, and Skanda, Boyapati always brings on a powerful character that is shown as a supreme power outshadowing the hero himself. When asked if it is getting monotonous and why he doesn’t surprise the audience with another star hero instead of going for a dual role, Boyapati justifies his idea of a dual role.

The Skanda director admits his most powerful character in the movie dominated hero as well, but stresses that he also should be the same actor who played the lead role in it. According to Boyapati, the actor who believed in him and worked hard all along doesn’t want to end up as a character who’s lying unconscious when another hero becomes the savior of all.

Why would a hero let any other hero walk away with laurels just by acting in a guest role for the powerful climax? Boyapati has got the logic here and it is agreeable. But this has to stop somewhere because it already has become an obvious point in Boyapati’s films.
