Boyapati hires bouncers for security

For the first time in T-town, ace director Boyapati Srinu has hired bouncers for his security for the last few weeks. Although it is well known that superstars like Pawan Kalyan, Mahesh Babu and Rana are accompanied by well-built bouncers to protect them from surging fans and strangers, but now, the director of ‘Legend’ and ‘Sarrainodu’ has also joined the bandwagon. “He has been travelling a lot these days and also has become a popular face across the two Telugu states. 

Hence, he gets surrounded by crowds wherever he goes. So, he engaged bouncers to provide him security,” says an industry source. Even though top directors like S S Rajamouli, Trivikram Srinivas, Sukumar and Surendar Reddy are equally popular, they did not hire personal bodyguards.

 “Boyapati mingles with the public a lot than others and wanted to ensure his personal safety,” adds the source. On the work front, Boyapati will be directing hotshot Ram Charan Tej in his next big-ticket action flick. 

Even though, his last release ‘Jaya Janaki Nayaka’ failed to set the box office on fire, the director is sought-after for his slam-bang action sequences and emotional dramas by leading stars.
