Cinematographer Muraleedharan walks out from Jai Lava Kusa

Bollywood Cinematographer C K Muraleedharan, famous for great films like ‘Lage Rao Munnabhai’ and ‘PK’, has walked out from NTR starrer ‘Jai Lava Kusa’, due to clashes with director Bobby. 

Muraleedharan’s sensibilities are different. He takes shots in classic style and has a great cinematic style of his own. On the other hand, Bobby has no particular style of his own. He comes from the school of Tollywood moviemakers (most of the Tollywood makers follow this path) that good cinematography means elevating hero with glitzy camera tricks. So, they must have had differences of opinion regarding how to film a particular scene. 

Muraleedhran has now walked out of the film and NTR’s trusted Tollywood cinematographer has stepped in. Chota is now canning the shots.
