These days Telugu film industry is filled with non-telugu actors starting from heroines, character artists, villains and top of it even technical team is dominated by non-locals. But slowly our industry is realizing the problems faced by other languages actors and director Harish Shankar taken an initial step for these problems.
Harish Shankar has signed Ravi Shankar, brother of actor Sai Kumar on dotted lines to play main villain in Ramayya Vasthavayya movie. Ravi Shankar made his mark as Bomali Ravishankar in Arundhati and even impressed as Andhakaasura in Dhamarukam film.
