Gopala Gopala (2015) co-starring Venkatesh was a success while Sardaar Gabbar Singh ,[ 16] Katamarayudu ,[ 17] and Agnyaathavaasi received negative reviews.[ 18] [ 19] Vakeel Saab (2021), the masala-laced adaptation of the courtroom drama Pink (2016), received positive reviews.[ 20] His next film, Bheemla Nayak (2022), was successful and ended up becoming the fourth highest-grossing Telugu film of 2022 .
