iSmart Shankar is currently in news for working well at the Box Office. The Tollywood film starring Ram Pothineni, Nabha Natesh and Niddhi Agerwal in the lead roels, is directed by Puri Jagannadh. For the uninitiated, Puri and superstar Mahesh Babu have collaborated twice for the movies Pokiri and Businessman.

Since those movies became the talk of the town, Mahesh Babu fans asked the director to rope in the superstar for his next movie Jana Gana Mana too. However the director made some starkling statements about Mahesh Babu which definitely hurt fans.

Tollywood.Com quoted Puri Jagannadh saying, “I have worked with Mahesh Babu for a couple of movies. His fans have been asking me to work with Maharshi star again. But Mahesh Babu is one who works with directors who are on a success track. Mahesh Babu’ fans don’t understand the fact that their favourite star does the movies only with a hit director. When a good director is facing a bad phase, he never shows interest to work with him.”

Also the director of Temper, Puri has already made the announcement of iSmart Shankar's sequel. The director registered the movie name title under Double Shankar.
