The Businessman to have comedy angle

3rd December 2011

Director Puri Jagannath is experimenting with a new angle for his much-hyped film, 'The Businessman', and has resolved to add a special comedy track featuring ace comedian, Ali, to give the audience a few laughs.  After recording the promotional song of the film with the lead actor of the film  Mahesh Babu, the director will embark upon shooting for six to seven scenes which include a bit of humour to lighten the storyline.

Even though the film is almost complete and are shooting the final song in Bangkok a new idea hit the director. “After watching the rushes, he realised that the serious movie needs some humorous scenes to pep up the proceedings and he had already scripted an excitingcomedy track,” says a source, close to the director.

It is believed that the success of 'Dookudu' could have inspired him, since the cop story had ample dose of comedy and it worked. After being inspired from Srinu Vaitla, director Puri intends to blend comedy to his riveting story of a mafia don in an attempt to reach beyond its target audience.
