Venky turns stylist

Dubbed as one of the most stylish actors of Tollywood, superstar Venkatesh, we’ve learnt, has turned stylist for his new film ‘Gopala Gopala’, a remake of Bollywood hit ‘Oh! My God’, and is overseeing the clothes that his character sports in the film. A source close to the development says, “Generally Venky sir has a habit of picking up clothes for the songs that he features in but for his role in ‘Gopala Gopala’ he is personally monitoring the outfits that he dons throughout the film. Since he plays an antique dealer, he is handpicking different shades of short kurtas.”

The source adds, “Since Pawan Kalyan who is playing Lord Krishna sports ultra modern outfits in the film, Venky sir is also keen to leave his fashionable imprints. His look will be simple yet stylish.”

In the last leg of its shooting, ‘Gopala Gopala’ also features Mithun Chakraborthy and Shriya Saran in key roles. A joint venture between Suresh Babu and Sharrath Marar, Pawan Kalyan’s friend, the film, directed by Kishore Pardasani, will open in cinema halls next January.
