Some directors create fantastic first works, but their later works fall flat. You could say that the first movie was lucky, or perhaps that the writers spent years perfecting the storyline for it before getting carried away with its success. There are several such names to discuss, Karuna Kumar being one of them. He created the movie "Palasa 1978," which was shown during the siege and won over even the powerful megastar Chiranjeevi.
It's possible that this is what prompted Allu Arvind to approach him and propose the Metro Kathalu web series for Aha. Then this director released sridevi Soda Center with Sudhir Babu in the lead, but the film too failed to do well at the box office. His most recent movie, "Kalapuram," was just released, however it failed to amaze and even depressed the audience with its weak storyline and plot.
In the end, it appears that Karuna Kumar will only be known for his debut movie, which received so much buzz. The likes of Pilla Zamindar's Ashok, Virinchi Varma's Uyyala Jampala, and ravikanth Perepu's kshanam come under this category of filmmakers who scored a hit on their debut but never came close to that level of success subsequently.
