Young Director Sampath Nandi still believes he would one day work with Pawan Kalyan. In his recent interview, He said: "Never felt bad that I missed the opportunity to direct 'Gabbar Singh 2'. Things like this happen! I will surely work with Pawan Kalyan and it's just a phone call away. I have learnt so much traveling with him. I am ready to work with whenever he gives his nod".

The Filmmaker also claims directing a film starring Chiranjeevi is his dream and even penned a few scripts keeping him in mind.

On Bengal Tiger: "It's neither a Cop Story nor a  subject with Bengal backdrop. This title was chosen as its apt for the characterization of the Protagonist".

Working with Raviteja: "It's a wonderful feeling. He took part in the shoot of a mass number even when he was suffering from 102 fever. I am doing my best to deliver a good project".
