Though Prema disappointed commercially, Venkatesh didnt hesitate to give a second chance to the director. Dharmachakram shaped up respectively. This time, the duo, by keeping changed image of Venkatesh in mind, and done a different revenge drama. This was story of a family in which mother and son together fought against father for the principles and human values. Srividhya, as a ditched wife, rises up her kid (Venkatesh) with well behavior, manner and makes him a good lawyer to do justice to the fellow woman who are cheated brutally by their husbands. How Venkatesh takes the revenge on his father for the injustice that he had done to his mother was the crux of the film. Venkatesh portrayed this role like a maturated artiste. His controlled performance made audience to clap for certain scenes. He, for the second time, won the best award for this role. Commercially, this film didn't do wonders, but not a disaster.

(7): Preminchukundam raa
Banner: Suresh Productions
Director: Jayant C Paranjee
Producer: D.Suresh
Year of the Release: 1997
Box-Office Result: Sensational Hit

This movie was the one set the path for Seema oriented stories. Though ‘Love' was the main elements of the film, it was laced with faction backdrop to give a new dimension to the routine theme. Jayanth, a debutant director made this film a family entertainer with the help of good dialogues, excellent songs and speedy narration. Jayanth had taken all the care to project venkatesh as a romantic lad who doesn't care any for his love. He also blended the right emotional scenes and ferocious scenes that would elevate hero image. Venkatesh did complete justice to this role. He looked handsome through out the film. He was good at the emotional scenes where he argued with his parents over his love. Songs tuned by Late Sri Mahesh were awesome. This film had very good run at box-office and proved the stamina of Venkatesh. It had set many records in terms of its run and collections. Jayanth, Venkatesh combination made wonders after this film.

(8): Ganesh
Banner: Suresh Productions
Director: Late sri Tirupathy Swamy
Producer: D.Suresh
Year of the Release: 1999
Box-Office Result: Super Hit

Ganesh was also performance oriented subject chosen by Venkatesh. One good thing in him was, he tries to do different characters at least occasionally. Ganesh was one such film. His character fights against the corruption in hospitals. Venkatesh has also habit of encouraging new directors. Late Sri Tirupathy swamy, who was a journalist, happened to narrate this storyline to Venkatesh. He immediately Okayed it and went onto the sets with him as the director. Though it was well shot and pointed out many loopholes in the society, commercially not done too many wonders. ManiSarma , in his career beginning, done this movie. Couple of songs were good. Kota sreenivasarao character was well etched being Venkatesh's the best. This film won few awards at state level.

(9): Raaja
Banner: SuperGood films
Director: Muppalaneni Shiva
Producer: RB Chowdhury
Year of the Release: 2000
Box-Office Result: Sensational Hit

Raaja was again a remake. Start to finish, this was a tear jerker. Melo drama, too many sentimental scenes, SA Raj kumar's apt to subject songs, venkatesh's sacrificing role made this film to have a marathon run at box-office. Actress, Late Soundarya, done a role that was an equally important role as hero's. The film was about a man who scarifies his life to assist his lady to reach great heights in life. The film had broken the box-office records with its unexpected run.
Venkatesh was named a family hero with plenty of films of this type released just before and after of this film and cemented his position in lady fans.

(10): Nuvvu Naaku Nachhav
Banner: Sravanthi movies
Director: K.Vijaya Bhaskar
Producer: Sravanthy Ravikishore
Year of the Release: 2001
Box-Office Result: Sensational Hit

After Trivikram and VijayaBhaska combination started making waves, It was D.Suresh, brother of Venkatesh who identified enough potential in this combination to direct a star like Venkatesh. He, along with Sravanthi Ravikishore came out with a decent agreement to produce this non-stop comical. They wished that it could create wonders with venkatesh. Successful businessman seldom goes wrong. NNN proved it's true. The phenomenal success of this film opened gates for family entertainers once again where comedy takes the major stake. Star heroes started noticing this combination after this movie went onto a biggest hit and stood as one of best popular films in AP. Venkatesh had really done a wonderful job in this movie. One can easily see the major improvement in his acting skills in comedy genre. Full marks to TR and KVB for the crispy dialogues and hilarious screen play. This film had set the fire at box-office though initially started off with an average talk.
