Upendra

On Thursday, the star got to chat with his fans about his movies and more. For those who missed the chat, here's what transpired:

sami asked, HI UPPI.. are u planning to direct any movies in nera future?
Upendra answers, I am working on some scripts. I am thinking on how not to think. Subject is actually thoughtlessness.

nkpandit asked, Namaskara upendra ravare.I am from abu dhabi and big fan of you.wHAT I LIKE MOST OF YOU IS YOUR SIMPLICITY AND POWERFULL ACTING ALL THE BEST TO YOU
Upendra answers, I cherish memories of visiting your place a couple of times. I have great friends there. Thanks for your message.

vijju asked, hi sir hw r u when will u act with chiranjeevi
Upendra answers, In future political grounds I will act with him.

Sharankumar asked, Hi uppi, Buddhivanta script was too good, we ecpext some more good scripts which will live up to our expectations......, u rock maga upi :)
Upendra answers, I am working on a script about how the human brain functions. Why don't you guys give some suggestions to the script because you expect me to be very unique in my direction.

krish_kiran asked, Hi Upendra, How are you....I was seeing your house in one of the TV interviews...Just the look of your house shows the immense creativity that you have and that you show in your movies. You are really great. But i have one complaint in your movies is that you dont consider all the range of people to view your movies. Its mainly the teenagers and the younger lot who prefer to watch your movies. Why is this? Why dont the older lot like your movies as much as the younger lot. Either ways, i am quite young and i like your movies a lot. Anyway, not sure it question will be ansered, i wish you all the best for all your future movies....
Upendra answers, All the subjects that I have directed like Om, A or Upendra are all high level intelectual thoughts. A deals with whether love is there in the world or not and it is a mature thought. Upendra is about the 'I' syndrome and Om was a trendsetter. These films cater to all age groups because it sets every one thinking.

Sharankumar asked, Hi uppi.., one happy news....., u have developed ur dancing skills to good level..., u can become a good dancer..., just matter of time.., u danced quite good in Buddhivantha movie
Upendra answers, Thanks for the appreciation. During my struggling days I was dancing on fire, now I am dancing on the floor. Thanks for your compliments, I promise to improve.
