Medhavulu

In the confines of their beaten-down, cramped car, three disgruntled crime journalists find solace in shared frustration over recent inept criminals they've covered. The seasoned journalist, Guru, seizes the opportunity to assert his intellect, regaling the wide-eyed intern, Anil, with the tale of a brilliantly executed bank heist. Guru's voice takes on a vivid tone as he describes the meticulous planning, the clever use of disguises, and the tense moments when the heist almost went awry. As he delves into the heart-pounding escape, the car seems to hum with excitement, and for a brief moment, they are all immersed in the thrilling world of crime.

Director Biography - Vivek Borusu

Hello my name is Vivek Borusu and I just want to thank you guys for giving me the opportunity to start writing my autobiography titled, "Oops-A-Daisy: One blunder at a time".

Let's go into some boring deets - I live in Hyderabad, India with my mom, dad, and two younger sisters. We are a loving family, except during family game night - they are all going down!! I studied elementary school and college in upstate New York, but middle and high school in India (you can call me the perfect Indian- American) and for the past 3 years I have been pursuing my love for Telugu cinema in Hyderabad.

I work as an assistant director for the esteemed and super cool Telugu director Chandoo Mondeti sir, and everyday, I wake up feeling on top of the world, enlivened to do and experience things in this intense, creative field.

Director Statement

Medhavulu is a crime-dramedy short film shot by a group of immensely talented film geeks who were on a hollow budget, but are full of heart. The cast and crews main downside was the director, who wanted to be called as "The Avatar: Master of 7 and a half crafts" (he thinks so at-least).

I don't want to give away much of the film, but we all had a blast working on it, and we hope you guys have as much fun watching it.
