Lawrence ‘Don’s new role

Ragava Larencce, who has handled story, screenplay, choreography, music and direction, besides playing an important role in Telugu superstar Nagarjuna starrer ‘Don’, is planning to do the same magic in Tamil as well. It is said that he would rope in a leading hero in the lead role.

Dance masters becoming directors has become a trend. In Bollywood choreographer Farah Khan made her successful attempt into direction. In south, Larencce did the same in 2004 with his ‘Mass’ in Telugu, while Prabhu Deva wielded the megaphone for ‘Nuvvostanante Nenoddantana’ (Telugu) in 2005. His brother Raju Sundaram is now all set to direct Ajith.

Though both dance masters turned directors - Prabhu Deva and Larencce – have been successful in their new role, the initial response for Larencce’s latest movie featuring Nagarjuna is not encouraging.

Larencce, unperturbed by the results, is raring to go. The announcement of his venture in the Tamil is expected to be made soon. In the venture, it is said, he would handle story, screenplay, choreography, music and direction, besides playing an important role.
