‘Young Tiger’ NTR gets new ‘title’



NTR Jr. is fondly called as ‘Young Tiger’ by his fans. As Chiranjeevi is called Megastar, the title of ‘Young Tiger’ has become very popular. But now producer Ashwini Dutt gives the star a new title - Nava Nata Saarvabhowmudu. 

Remember that the legendary actor Late NTR used to be referred as Nata Saarvabhowmudu. So Ashwini Dutt comes up this title with a "new" (Nava) spin to his grandson who is riding high on success.

NBK - Parachuri Murali film progresses



Balakrishna's current film in the direction of Parachuri Murali has wrapped up 25 days schedule. Produced on Sree Keerthi Creations banner, the director canned important scenes involving Balakrishna and heroine Lakshmi Rai at a special set erected at Vizag.

'Theen Maar' For Pawan Than 'Love Aaj Kal'


It is known news that ‘Theen Maar’ is the new film of Pawan Kalyan and this is slated to be a remake of the Bollywood hit ‘Love Aaj Kal’. However, director Jayanth C Paranjee’s words reveal that this is more about Pawan than remaking the original. The film is left with the canning of two songs.

Apparently, Jayanth stated that he has gone further deep into the relationship angle than the original and he has changed the characters to suit Pawan Kalyan’s image. It is heard that the story has Pawan as a master chef and it is a love story between two NRIs in Cape Town. Trisha is the leading lady.

The flashback story has got Banaras in the backdrop and Pawan is reportedly playing a Telugu student leader who is more of a rebel. How he falls for Kriti Kharbanda forms the backdrop.  Jayant is also shaping up his long pending project ‘Love 4 Ever’ starring newcomers which he is planning to release after ‘Theen Maar’.

Balayya Effect Closes Hate Websites

It is often said that no one messes with Nandamuri Balakrishna in the Tollywood arena and even the thought brings them shivers. However, one website did the unthinkable and came up with a hate philosophy on Balayya and has also paid the price for it.

It is known news that the websitewww.ihatebalayya.com was coming up with some mocking portrayal of Balayya and the Nandamuri family. As a result, Balayya decided to file a case against the website and here is the latest update. It is heard that the website got closed.

Incidentally, Balayya was disturbed over the content of the website which was damaging his image and decided to file a complaint. As a compound effect, another websitewww.ihatechiru.com also is reportedly closed. Well, let us wait to see who is next in the list.

Ramcharan's Behavior In Discussion


Star kids are often known to walk three feet in air and they have a haughty attitude which is hard to digest and handle for many. However, to those who have read instances of Ramcharan Tej’s volatile behavior, here is something interesting.

Those who know Charan personally and have interacted with him thoroughly have a different opinion. They say “Charan has no airs of his stardom or family and talks in a very balanced way. He is a lovable friend for anyone who meets him. After talking to him for a while, you can’t help but get a feeling that he should be your friend”

A noted personality from the cine circuit reveals “the unique thing about Ramcharan I have noticed is, he is not just the same with film folks but also with common people. Though he comes across as a grim person at the start, he is basically a shy person and once he gets comfortable, he is humble and nice to talk to.”
Well, how come such balanced guy got agitated on twitter when some media channel aired a program which wasn’t liked by him. 

Junior NTR's Girlfriend Admitted In Hospital!!!


There was a time when the film nagar was rife with the grapevine about Junior NTR and Sameera Reddy. The buzz was that the young tiger was smitten by the charms of the Arabian horse beauty and a ‘hot hot’ affair was on during the time of ‘Ashok’. Though it is an old story, few gossips still make rounds about them.

For now, the focus is on Sameera Reddy and it is heard that she was admitted in a private hospital recently. The reason for that was Sexy Sam’s fever and the hot babe was busy working for a Tamil film which has Vishal in the lead and Prabhu Deva as the director. It was here that she fainted on the sets and was rushed to the hospital.

It is heard that Sam has been working round the clock over the past few months due to the long list of films. Also, she has been doing several stage shows which has now taken a toll on her health. Get well soon Sameera!!

Sexy Heroine's Direction Dreams


It is a very rare occurrence that a hot looking sexy heroine might want to take up the megaphone and start directing a film. But right now, one girl seems to have become the topic of discussion at film nagar. Her name is Nishanti and she has recently made her debut as a heroine with the film ‘LBW’.
 
Nishanti is a naturally beautiful and very attractive girl but sources reveal that she is keen on direction and wants to become a director. Those who have seen her in real vouch that both onscreen and off-screen, Nishanti looks very hot and seductive.
 
The cine folks are saying that if this is the case then all the young heroes will go behind her as soon as she takes up direction. For now, Nishanti has scored points in looks and performance department let us see what happens once she starts saying “Lights!! Camera!! Action!!”.

Ramgopal Varma Inspired Balayya!!

Usually, it is the dialogues and body language of Nandamuri Balakrishna that charges up the masses and sometimes, a few in the film industry as well. But this time, it appears that Balayya seems to have drawn inspiration and that too from a rather unconventional man.

He is Ramgopal Varma and here is the reason for that inspiration. News is that Balayya is very miffed with a website that has been attacking him and his family members in a big way. True to the flavor, the site is called www.ihatebalayya.comand it has been ripping the Nandamuri family, especially Balayya, in a sticky fashion.

Now, it is heard that Balayya has decided to take action and will be filing a case against the site with the cyber police department. A source close to the star revealed “Balayya is fully aware that his jokes make big rounds in SMS and he took them sportively. But the website and its content has disturbed him a lot. He is taking the appropriate action on the makers of this site”. Let us see how the Nandamuri fans will react now…

Ravi Teja- A Right Lesson For Every Star


He is a superstar but behaves like a face in the crowd. He is sober when outside but gets doubly charged up as soon as he faces the camera and is a different person altogether. He came up the hard way and created a brand of his own beating the challenges of superstar families and powerful individuals in cine industry.

He is none other than Ravi Teja and he is the right lesson for every star. Starting his journey as a small time actor, Ravi Teja became the crazy star and eventually the Mass Maharaja. Today, he is reportedly getting Rs 7 crores as remuneration but despite all this success and money, there are no airs in him.

Given his package, Ravi Teja is standing number 2 in Tollywood when it comes to remuneration (first being Jr NTR). But still, he is the dedicated artist who works on 2-3 projects per year and is down to earth. The kind of qualities and professionalism which Ravi has, he sure is a role model for many stars in cinema.

Yandamuri Veerendranath Upset On TV9


The tactics of the electronic media are quite crooked and we have seen how their devious methods played a key role in the Telangana crisis and many other important issues. As a result, the impact on the society was negative and the suffering of an individual was double.

This is something even a learned man like Yandamuri Veerendranath didn’t realize and he is paying the price. Apparently, Yandamuri is reportedly very upset with the TV9 channel. This is about his statement he made on RGV’s ‘Naa Ishtam’ and the treatment he was made to get by RGV, thanks to TV9.

Yandamuri was sharing his thoughts with his friends when he has reportedly said “I don’t understand why they should make me say something on the book and get a reply from RGV. They dragged me into this, instigated me. When there are so many writers why did they choose me?”

It is heard he also retorted “why TV9 showed my clipping to Ramu, provoke him and get me scolded? This is cheap.”
Yes, TV9 made Yandamuri a scapegoat in RGV issue. Much to the embarrassment of Veerendranath, RGV retorted calling him a monkey.

Caste Feeling Between Jr NTR And Rajeev Kanakala


Cinema industry and caste feeling go hand-in-hand despite many claims suggesting all of them are like a family. However, here is one caste feeling which has caught the attention of many and has also become a topic of discussion for few caste fanatics.

The topic is about the friendship of Junior NTR and Rajeev Kanakala. While the regular notion is both of them worked together at the start of junior’s career and became the best of friends, here is another angle to their relationship.

Incidentally, Junior NTR’s mother Shalini and Rajeev Kanakala’s mother Lakshmi Kanakala are Brahmins and reliable sources confirm that both junior and Rajeev have been brought up in a rather Brahminic environment.  Since both share a common upbringing, this has rooted them to better understanding, say few analysts.
Although from paternal side Rajeev is Kapu and Jr NTR is Kamma, the common point between both is Brahmin mothers. 

Deepika's Item Number in Teenmaar


Deepika Padukone is doing an item number in Jayanth C Paranji's Telugu flick Teenmaar which stars Pawan Kalyan. She had also shaken her booty in Paranji's 2009 Telugu film Love 4 Ever. Looks like Dippy is always willing to groove in his movies. Or is it the lure of the greenbucks from down South too?

Balayya files case against 'hate' website


Hyderabad: Actor Nandamuri Balakrishna has lodged a complaint with the Central Crime Station (CCS) police alleging that he was being defamed publicly on a website, www.ihatebalayya.com
According to sources, the actor approached deputy commissioner of police (DCP), CCS, J Satyanarayana about 15 days ago and lodged a complaint.
The content on the website exclusively dedicated to the actor has morphed photographs insulting Balakrishna and his nephew Jr NTR. The website also contains several jokes humiliating them.
During the investigation, police found out that ‘godaddy.com’ a US-based firm has been hosting ‘ihatebalayya.com’ website and the server of the website has been traced to Sydney in Australia.

Heroine loses her heart to NRI doc


It looks like Amrita Rao may soon go the Madhuri Dixit way. No, we are not commenting on her acting, but about her love life.
Madhuri has been married for 12 years to US- based cardiac surgeon Sriram Nene.
And the rumour is Amrita is also dating an NRI surgeon.
Amrita’s mom, who has been insisting she should settle down for a very long time, seems very happy with the development.
If all goes well, Amrita, whose upcoming release includes My Name Is Anthony Gonsalves, might formalise the relationship, says a birdie.

Sources say that the film nagar folks and few experienced cine members are floored by the appeal of Isha Chawla after seeing her in the film ‘Prema Kavali’. Now, it is heard that they are recommending her name to pair with Charan. Many feel that Isha might turn out to be the perfect onscreen pair for Ramcharan.

If this suggestion is taken, then it would be implemented in the new film to be directed by Sampath Nandi.

Ram Charan In Neck Deep Debts


You may wonder to know that Ram Charan is in neck deep debts now. How is this possible for the son of a millionaire? Many know that Ram Charan is the legal heir of thousands of crores that descends from Chiranjeevi. Keeping that aside, personally Ram Charan is in debts, say sources.

Here are the details.

The movie 'Merupu' with Ram Charan and Kajal as pair in the direction of Dharani was started and stopped abruptly. The banner was Supergood and an agreement was made between the banner and Ram Charan that the latter has to be pay Rs 10 Cr as compensation for stopping the film after completing 25%. Otherwise, as per another clause in that agreement Ram Charan has to do 2 films for Supergood banner for free. Now Ram Charan has chosen the former.

On the other hand Ram Charan has paid back Rs 6 CR remuneration given by his uncle Nagababu for 'Orange' as it met with huge losses. And for Magadheera he got Rs 5 Cr from Allu Aravind with which he bought Rolls Roycee for his dad and rest spent for horses and horse-like heroines. That way, technically Ram Charan is drowned in debts now, say the people those move around him. 

Puri Jagannadh On Suicide


Puri Jagannadh may well be a mass masala director but there are times when he addresses few issues with sense and sensibility. We have seen traces of that in ‘Neninthe’ and here is another update from the Puri camp. It is heard that the crazy director is working on a new subject which revolves around suicide.

Yes, buzz is that Puri is planning to make a film on this subject. However, this will not be an offbeat art house movie but a regular commercial entertainer with a strong message, as per sources. It is heard that Puri is keen on giving it a very intense shape so that no one will get instigated or even think to commit suicide after watching this film.

Those who are moving with Puri reveal that the subject is coming out real strong and he is all fired up on this issue. While it feels nice to expect another ‘Pokiri’ type blockbuster from Puri, the genre of his new project is noble enough to get him appreciations. Let us see how riveting he gets. Before announcing that his ‘Nenu Na Rakshasi’ is ready for release.

RGV to take revenge on TV9 Raviprakash?


After failing get a case registered against Raviprakash, Chief Executive Officer of popular television channel TV9 for making tarnishing his image with personal comments, maverick film maker Ramgopal Verma is learnt to have decided to take revenge on the former in his own style.
According to buzz in film circles, RGV is likely to create a satirical character in his forthcoming film “Bezavada Rowdeelu” to run down Raviprakash; or even make a film entirely based on the real life rags-to-riches story of Raviprakash. Everybody knows how Raviprakash had grown from an ordinary, small time reporter to that of a CEO of a channel that spread across the country. RGV is collecting details about the darker side of Raviprakash’s life, his benami assets and his illegal affairs.
RGV is now busy identifying the victims of Raviprakash who had earlier worked with him and presently working in other channels and also those who know him in close quarters for several years. Besides RGV’s assistants, noted director Puri Jagannath is also helping him in preparing the script against Ravi Prakash.
It may be mentioned that Puri Jagannath, who treats RGV as his godfather in the film industry, is also dead against TV9 channel and its CEO Raviprakash. One might have noticed satirical comments against TV9 in his blockbuster film “Pokiri” and also “143” starring his brother Sairam Shankar!

Dil Raju Produces Sunil's 'Napolean'

It is known that Sunil’s next film ‘Napolean’ is going to be directed by Koti, who got apprenticed at SS Rajamouli in the production of Tolly 2 Holly Ganesh Indukuri. But now the fresh news states that Ganesh Indukuri backed from the project as Dil Raju has shown interest in it.

The budget constraints of Ganesh Indukuri played big role in shifting this project from Ganesh Indukuri to Dil Raju.

The film is going on to the floors on 25th of March. The other details of the film are going to be revealed shortly. Sunil is going to appear on screen with 8-pack look for the first time.

Death Sentiment Surrounding Balayya

Sentiments run high in the Telugu film industry and it is an open fact. However, those sentiments are usually for Muhurtams, titles, hero-director combos, heroines etc. But right now, a death sentiment seems to be making rounds and that too for Nandamuri Balakrishna.

When Balayya was in the process of remaking the black and white golden hit ‘Narthanashala’, the famous heroine Soundarya died an unexpected death. Now, when he is working on ‘Srirama Rajyam’ tragedy has struck in the form of Mullapudi Venkata Ramana’s demise.

The cine folks are saying that whenever Balayya is trying to go near Ramayana and Mahabharatam, danger is striking. This death sentiment around Balayya is building up strongly. Whether it is sentiment or coincidence, Balayya’s name is in focus. Let us see how he can come out of this.

Nandini Reddy Comments On RGV


Nandini Reddy Comments On RGV


‘Ala Modalaindi’ fame Nandini Reddy is bold; not just in looks but also in her approach and freedom of expression. It is known that Ram Gopal Varma- TV9 tiff has been in wide discussion in entire film circuit and obviously RGV made a few points those stunned TV9 and those made RGV a reality show hero.
When the film people were asked to comment on this, none opened their mouth for not willing to lose any side (media or movie) but Nandini Reddy openly said, “Everyone has right to criticize a film and every film maker knows that. But one should stop sensationalizing such silly things like that of RGV’s as we have many better things to pay attention for”.
Well, in first line she took the side of media and in second line she took the side of public. So, she has chosen to shun RGV to get close to media and people. She is shrewd lady indeed.
“Since she made ‘Ala Modalindi’ a hit, she says that every one has right to criticize and when she makes flop she understands the pain in the bottom”, says an RGV supporter in the condition of anonymity.

Ram Charan okays Sampath's film



Ram Charan's third film, Merupu , that was launched last year, has been put off. Source told us that producer N V Prasad has decided to go with another director instead of Tamil director Dharani. After much dilly-dallying N V Prasad has taken young director Sampath Nandi to Ram Charan to narrate a story and the director ofEmaindi Ee Vela reportedly impressed the star very much. So, this movie is all set to go to the sets in the place of Dharani's Merupu. 

It should be remember that Dharani came up with a storyline that is too massy and it requires huge budget. But Ram Charan's father Chiranjeevi is not in favour of such risky movies. So the project has been dropped off.

Sampath Nandi is now giving final touches to his script. 

Heroine's Sexual Tryst With Make-Up Man

There is always a special relation that exists between a heroine and her make-up man. For some, it goes on for years and it is purely professional. But then, there are times when moments of passion take over and even a top league heroine might ‘indulge’ in some pleasure acts. 

Something like that has reportedly happened with a hot heroine of Bollywood. Well, this babe is currently enacting the role of a sex bomb. It is heard that her make-up man with whom she shares quite a rapport got ‘turned on’ looking at the actress in various skimpy outfits during the shooting of few intimate scenes.

As expected, he could not control his urge and expressed his desire. Maybe it was the heat of the scenes or the heroine’s nature to get into the skin of the character she is playing, it is heard that even she was in the ‘mood’ and they ended up getting intimate. Well, she is a south Indian beauty who is known for her talented performances in Bollywood.

'Kudirithe Cup Coffee' Review: A Scenic Poetry


Rating: 3/5
Banner:
 Siva Productions
Cast: Varun Sandesh, Suma Bhattachaya, Bheemineni, Tanikella, Sukumari and others
Music: Yogeswar Sharma
Dialogues: Abburi Ravi
Cinematography: Santosh Rai
Director: Ramana Salva
Producer: Mahi
Release date: 25/02/2011

Varun Sandesh who has been dabbling since a while for a hit has arrived with another venture and the title raised the curiosity of many. Let us see how good it gets..

Story
Venu (Varun) is a person who follows his heart and is not keen on taking up any career until he gets the right connect. However, the suicide of his close friend due to love failure disturbs him and Venu develops hatred for love and romance.
The story takes a turn when he is told by his father (Bheemaneni) to go to Dakshinagiri. They have a coffee shop in the hill station which is managed by his father’s teacher Malathi (Sukumari). Venu is asked to go and help her so that the financial debt she has with Decent Mohan (Bharani) can be revealed. Now, the former teacher has got a grand daughter Lasya (Suma) whose dream is to come up with a resort from the coffee shop and marry the person she loves. She comes home to find Venu in charge of things but seeing his abilities and qualities, she falls in love with him. What happens from there forms the rest of the story.

Performances:Varun Sandesh has come up with a strained performance which is quite unlike him. He is always filled with energy but not this time. The serious look on his face and the stiff body language didn’t work. And his clean shave look is also disgusting for the kid of role he played here.

Suma Bhattacharya is cute and looks nice in few places but due to poor hairstyling and make up, she was not able to appeal at all places. Overall, she did a decent job.

Sukumari was brief, Tanikella Bharani was not used to his full potential, Bheemineni was superb, Sivannarayana brought few smiles, Prithvi was adequate. The others did their bit as required.

Highlights
  • Locations
  • Cinematography
  • Music and three songs
  • Production values
  • Nice animation
Setbacks
  • Weak direction
  • Not gripping screenplay
  • Re-recording could have been better
  • Second half climax
  • Not enough depth in emotional scenes
AnalysisThe film comes across as a variety love story embedded with deep emotions but then such attempts require strong grip over the script and a screenplay that captures the attention of the audience.
However, despite some rich production values and mesmerizing locations, the director was unable to get the feel into the film. But the music and RR saved the film to good extent. Also, the presence of veteran and efficient support cast was not utilized to create an impact. Songs and cinematography were the saving grace for the film.
A strong etching of characters is important and that was missing here. This will require a strong word of mouth publicity to click at the box office.

Bottomline:
 Beautiful locations and pleasant music

Movie With Allari Naresh And Aryan Rajesh

Though both of them have been part of the cine circuit since many years, it has been very rare that Allari Naresh and brother Aryan Rajesh have teamed up. However, both brothers are teaming up once again for a new movie and here are few details about the project.

The film is being produced by would–be father-in-law of Aryan Rajesh, as per sources. He hails from the Jegurupaadu village in the East Godavari district and he is reportedly a sound party. Here is the interesting bit about the film.

It is heard that Allari Naresh will play the hero of the film but then Aryan Rajesh will play a very crucial role which is strongly connected to the plot. Incidentally, it is due to the sudden demise of EVV Satyanarayana that the marriage is postponed for next year. Meanwhile, Rajesh’s F-I-L has decided to come up with a film portraying both the brothers

Mohan Babu's Daughter Lakshmi Manchu Serious


It appears that Lakshmi Manchu is one girl who is a package of perfect balance. Well, this tall beauty is not only a looker but also a performer. Now, those who are working with her say she is a thorough professional too and has a passion towards her job.

Apparently, the Manchu girl is a very serious artist on the sets. It is heard that during the shooting of ‘Dongala Mutha’, she was practicing lyrics by heart. Wherever she had doubts, she checked the right meaning and learnt them to get the proper lip sync.

At a time when most of the heroines focus on their oomphs and curves, Lakshmi Manchu is setting an example by displaying her traits. Some are saying she is a good example for the saying ‘Chip Of The Old Block’.

Reel Talk: 'I Have Great Assets'


Kashmera Shah has gone super bold for a calendar shoot and flaunted her ‘perfect 10’ body by even going topless.
Confident about her curves, Kashmera says, “I have great assets and so I have the confidence to flaunt them. I know that India is very sensitive to nudity. It really excited me to go topless and I told the photographer that I did not want my body to be touched up. I wanted to show people exactly what I have, which I think is beautiful.”
The actress informs that she has killed herself to get the fab hot bod that she now possesses. "I have worked out a lot and I have been on diet. I have had raw food through the day. I have killed myself daily from September to January to do the shoot. My friends always know that I will do something out of the box and for this one I have really stretched myself," says the sex kitten.

Rajinikanth’s Warning To Muscular Villain!!


When superstar Rajinikanth takes a decision on few things, no one in the Indian cinema circuit can dare say no to it. Then one can imagine how a muscular villain who is known for his powerful roles will go against him. As expected, even the villain had to tame down before the superstar.

Well, we are talking about Sonu Sood who is playing the lead villain in the new movie ‘Rana’. Sources say this is a period action film which is on the lines of the Hollywood blockbuster ‘300’ and Rajini’s role is on the lines of Gerard Butler. Now, it is heard that Rajini has given a strict instruction to Sonu.

Apparently, Rajini & co want Sonu to tone down his muscles but then Sonu is in a fix since he is doing the role of a very tough cop in Puri Jagannadh’s ‘Buddha’ which requires him to be completely fit. However, the chiseled hunk reportedly said that Rajini is a legend and recalled that he had no intentions of doing negative roles after ‘Dabangg 2’ but the superstar insisted. Sonu quips about what would happen if one says ‘no’ to Rajini.

'Prema Kavali' Review: Commendable Debut


Rating: 3/5Banner: Max India Productions
Cast: Aadi, Isha Chawla, Brahmanandam, Dev Gill, Sindhu Tolani, Naga Babu, Jayasudha and others
Music: Anup Rubens
Cinematography: Chota K Naidu
Editing: Goutham Raju
Story, screenplay, direction: K Vijayabhaskar
Producer: K Atchi Reddy 
Release date: 25/02/2011

‘Dialogue King’ Sai Kumar is a tense father as his son Aadi is making his debut in cinema today. It is also a comeback of sorts for veteran director K Vijayabhaskar. Let us see what both of them have been upto

Story: Prema (Isha) is the darling daughter of a honest and strict police officer (Nasser) but she is currently being blackmailed by one person (Shafi). Prema’s tension catches the eye of her sister-in- law (Sindhu Tolani) and this reveals a flashback. The story is about Srinu (Aadi), Prema’s classmate and his love for her. However, Prema doesn’t respond to his love feelings but becomes friends with him. But an unexpected situation makes her hate Srinu and that becomes the cause of her worries. What is that situation? Is Srinu successful in his love story? All this forms the rest of the story.

Performances: Aadi has made a confident debut. He has built a sturdy physique, nice dance moves, expressive body language and above all, a voice and facial countenance that reminds his father. Overall, he came up with a good job. But instead of heavy build body, he would have concentrated on lean muscle built to get a romantic look. Aadi needs to concentrate on bringing depth in emotions from his second film onwards. On a whole, he passed the debut test without any hassles.
Isha Chawla will strike a chord with the youth audience. She is beautiful, has an adorable smile, an innocent sex appeal that makes her desirable. If she can polish few of her expressions then she has strong potential.
Dev Gill has that mean look but his role was brief. Shafi is a talent whose abilities must be challenged further. Supreeth has good screen presence but then his role was minimal. 
Brahmanandam and M S Narayana gave hilarious moments, their sense of timing and their screen chemistry was excellent. Ali gave his own share of laughs. Sindhu Tolani was decent, Nasser was matured as usual. Naga Babu and Jayasudha gave guest appearances. 

Highlights:
  • Aadi’s ease in performance
  • Isha Chawla’s glamour (don’t miss her wet song)
  • Brahmi- M S Narayana comedy sequences
  • Cinematography
  • CG Effects
  • Locations for songs and picturization
Setbacks:
  • No great gripping romantic moments
  • Two scenes in second half got dragged
  • Dev Gill’s character should have got more strength and power
Analysis: More than the story it is the narration which plays a crucial role for any film and that’s where experienced directors like Vijayabhaskar make their mark.
Here, there was nothing special in the story but it was his screenplay and the right proportion of comedy, romance, emotions which gave a fresh look.
He was well supported by strong technicians and rich production values. Though there may not be very touching romantic moments, the film passes off without creating much dilemma.
At the box office, this will appeal to the college and youth audience. This looks like an attempt to show Aadi as an actor who can dance, fight and romance since he is looking ahead for portraying mass masala hero roles.

Bottomline: Good for time pass

Is Allu Aravind's Family Playing With Fans?


For some reason, Allu Aravind is one man whose gestures keep rubbing the mega fans on the wrong side. And this keeps happening on a regular basis. Now, it is heard that another incident has taken place which is not going well with fans of Allu Arjun and here are the details.

It is known news that the wedding card of Bunny has been released publicly but then sources reveal the invites are meant for only near and dear. Buzz is that the invite is not for all. As a result, many are asking “when it is a private event, why should the card be released for public?”

Sources reveal many fans are hurt by this gesture. On the other hand, junior NTR has invited all his fans and ensured that even his father Nandamuri Harikrishna also invites from his behalf. Well, only time will tell whether the Allu family will do anything about it or not.

Jagapathi Babu's Remuneration: 2 Full Bottles


How much could actor Jagapathi Babu have charged for his role “Bandagi” in “Jai Bolo Telangana?”
One does not know exactly what Jagapathi Babu is charging for his films these days. Perhaps, he might have charged a couple of lakhs from producer-director Shankar as he has made only a special appearance in the film.
However, after watching the movie and the way Jagapathi Babu’s character was designed, a Telangana journalist sarcastically commented that Shankar might have given him just a couple of full bottles of liquor: one for the appearance before interval and the other for his after-interval appearance.
Well, everybody knows Jagapathi Babu boozes a little heavily. And nothing would satisfy him more than booze. Perhaps, Shankar might have capitalized on it, the journo was commenting, of course, over a couple of drinks in Press Club!

TV9's Intention Behind 'Ram Dhamaal Varma'


Recently, the TV9 Channel came up with an exclusive titled ‘Ram Dhamaal Varma’ and chided the movie director in their own way. As a result, RGV has reportedly decided to put a criminal case on the TV channel. However, reliable sources from TV9 are now revealing the inside story behind this.

A key person associated with the program revealed “RGV is a nation renowned director with international standard. But lately, it was looking like he is not putting focus on his films. The intention behind our program was to remind him of his potential and true abilities in a friendly way”.

He also revealed “We didn’t expect Ramu to go in for a court case as he is the most sportive person when it comes to criticism. There is also a talk that the voiceover was given by Ravi Prakash for the program. That is not true. In fact, Ravi Prakash said to stop the program as he felt it could go off mark. Many have mistaken the voiceover as his voice”.

While the point from TV9 is this, RGV says that he took the issue serious as TV9 has unethically pointed in a wrong way that he said ‘audiences are fools’ and he never said that at any time. TV9 says that those words weren’t sounded at all in the program.
The bottom line of this issue is that the program was made and aired without the knowledge of Ravi Prakash who intervened and stopped the program to prevent from going it further.

Hot Fight Of Two Sexy Heroines!!


Cat fights between heroines are a common feature in the cine circuit and this is high in Bollywood. But right now, a different game is on the cards between two sexy heroines. Interestingly, both are from the southern circuit and there is a tug of war which seems to be happening right there.

We are talking about Deepika Padukone and Asin. Apparently, both seem to be having this push and pull thing in bagging offers. For starters, Asin has replaced Deepika in the big project ‘Housefull 2’. And before she could rest, Deepika struck back by bagging Rajinikanth’s project ‘Rana’.

Now, the twist in the tale is that Asin has been reportedly roped in for ‘Rana’ and she would be the second heroine after Deepika. Many are now waiting to see how both Deepika and Asin would compete with each other in ‘Rana’. This will be an interesting duel between these two hot beauties.

Reel Buzz: Balayya Still In Darkness


It is an open fact that many in the cine circuit fear speaking to Nandamuri Balakrishna out of respect and other reasons. However, those who know Balayya personally say he is a regular man and has his own share of innocence as well. Here is one instance which seems to prove that.

The buzz is that Balayya is still under the impression his recent release ‘Parama Veera Chakra’ scored above average at the box office but not a super hit. Sources say the reason for that is those around Balayya who are misleading him with a wrong picture about the film.

Recently, it is heard that Balayya fired on hearing about the actual status of ‘PVC’ but then these so-called followers showed false reports and data insisting the film was above average grosser. Now, Balayya got fixed with this and is unfortunately in darkness. As long as there is this kind of coterie around Balayya it will be like this only. This will also affect Balayya’s movies as they advice him on which script he should accept.

RGV: 'I Will Go To Mumbai Again'


Ram Gopal Varma hasn't shelved his ambitious Department. There was much talk that the maverick filmmaker was finding a producer to roll out the movie but it seems he is on course to begin the film in June.
"I am going to make the film with Amitabh Bachchan, Abhishek Bachchan and Sanjay Dutt post June," Ramu informs.
Interestingly, Sanjay and Ramu will work again after 13 years. Their last film was Daud that also had Urmila Matondkar. Rumour is that they had fallen out bitterly.
The director also rubbished rumours that he is planning to settle down in the Telugu film industry and quit Mumbai. "I was here because I had to make Raktacharitra which was a story based out of Andhra Pradesh. I will now make Amma, a 3D film in Hindi and Telugu for which I will have to go to Mumbai again. I will go where my work takes me," RGV shoots.

Actress' Shyless Talk On 'Mastur—tion'


If ‘M’ word means marriage to the ladies, then it means marriage and something else for the men. Right now, their private moments are being given an additional boost by this sexy bombshell. Well, she is none other than Kashmira Shah who is known for her raunchy sex appeal in photo stills and special features.

Recently, this hot babe was speaking about a photoshoot she did for a calendar. She guarantees that her stills will be so hot that men will pin it up in the bathroom. If one can read between Kashmira’s lines, they don’t have to think on why she wants men to take her pictures in the bathroom.

Kashmira said without any shy, “You will pin up my calendar in bathrooms. I may give lot of motivation for mastur…tion”.

This line shocked media people  for that most forbidden word.

Meher Ramesh Making Jr NTR Weak


The costliest film ever made in the history of Telugu cinema is ‘Shakti’ and this has Junior NTR in the lead while Meher Ramesh is the director. While the budget, hype, brand value etc is going fine so far, the flip side seems to be a growing concern in the cine circuit. Well, many say that the biggest concern for the film is Meher Ramesh himself.

On the other hand, Meher came up with a new stint which has posed a threat to junior’s image as well. Apparently, the director has coined a new title to NTR and is calling him ‘A1 Star’. Well, this has not gone one bit nice with the Nandamuri fans and they are urging to stop using that title at once.

Some are feeling that it is sounding like the name of a rejected Maruti car model. As a result, some are fuming that Meher Ramesh is making NTR weak with his creativity. But then, if Meher doesn’t prove his mettle at the box office with ‘Shakti’ then the

Allu Aravind Troubling Naga Babu's Son

There is a talk in the cine circles that Allu Aravind is one man who is cut-throat, shrewd and means business at all times. While that may have been understood if he was dealing with someone outside the family, the latest news is raising the eyebrows of many and they are surprised and shocked.

Well, a source very close to the mega family has revealed that Naga Babu is having a tough time trying to get his son Varun Tej to make his debut. The reason for that is Allu Aravind’s politics, as per the source. It is heard that Allu has influenced Chiranjeevi which in turn is putting a break to Varun’s entry.

The talk is that Allu Aravind is already feeling a bit unsettled about the presence of Ramcharan Tej since it has given a hiccup to his son Allu Arjun’s career. On the other hand, Varun has got the right kind of frame and looks which suits a hero material so the fear is he might overtake the rest in the mega family. Hence the trouble is by Allu Aravind, as per sources.
