Even before Tollywood came out of the grief following the sudden passing away of music director Devi Sri Prasad’s father and senior writer Satyamurthy, successful music composer Anup Rubens suffered a major loss as his mother Manoharam passed away just a while ago. Manoharam was 65.
This morning, Manoharam slipped and fell down in her bathroom and sustained severe injuries. Apparently, she even suffered a heart stroke due to the mishap. Manoharam was immediately rushed to the hospital in a crucial condition, where doctors treated her in ICU.
However, all the efforts were in vain as Manoharam breathed her last just a while ago. Anup is extremely attached to his mother and he even dedicated the superhit ‘Kanipenchina Ma Ammake’ song from Manam to his mother in a TV interview. We extend our deepest condolences and pray for strength to Anup and his family members in this time of grief.

Funky Opens Below Expectations, Raises Questions for Vishwak Sen
Until a few films ago, Vishwak Sen enjoyed a reputation for delivering decent openings regardless of pre-release buzz. He built a strong following among the masses, particularly in single-screen centres, where his energetic screen presence often translated into solid initial numbers.
However, the trend appears to be shifting. After Laila turned out to be a box-office disappointment, its after-effects now seem visible on his latest release, Funky. Despite carrying fairly positive buzz ahead of release and being directed by Anudeep KV, the comedy entertainer has opened to average collections across the Telugu states. Even on its second day — a crucial weekend window — the response has reportedly remained underwhelming.
While Funky is said to be performing marginally better in select regions, the overall occupancy levels are below expectations. Trade circles suggest that this phase could serve as a wake-up call for the young actor, whose box-office momentum appears to have slowed in recent times.
There is little doubt about Vishwak Sen’s talent and commanding screen presence. However, a section of fans believes that his recent script choices have not fully capitalized on his strengths. If he aims to regain his earlier box-office stamina, a sharper focus on stronger, content-driven scripts might be the key to bouncing back in a big way.
