Beautiful looks and sexy physique alone can’t make a heroine the busiest one. Tapsee has learned the lesson little late and now she is struggling for offers in Telugu. It is not so difficult for her to bounce back to mainstream of films, until she maintains her numbers perfect.

Tapsee is caught working out at gym in black tracks and is seen lifting few weights to maintain fitness. Wait to see her back with a star hero soon!

If a hero likes particular subject and convinces his producer to invest money despite apprehensions about the commercial success worthiness of the project, who is going to take the responsibility after the film ends up in soup? Definitely me, hints Mega Powerstar Ram Charan, as the youngster ups his sleeve to appease the stake holders involved in distribution of his latest flick ‘Govindudu Andarivadele’.

While few distributors of ‘Govindudu Andarivadele’ have reached the no-profit no-loss zone, somehow couple of distributors ended up with 20% losses as the film succumbs to Hudhud in Northern Andhra region and other ‘comedy’ flicks in various other regions. It is heard that Ram Charan doesn’t want to lose the confidence of his distributors as finalizing Krishna Vamsi’s family-drama is purely his own act. Insiders shared that Charan has returned 3 crores to producer Bandla Ganesh, realizing that his mistake should not cost distributors, and asked him to return the money to distributors.

It’s a point noteworthy as the big brigade of Tollywood’s ace heroes are returning remunerations for sake of distributors and producers. On that note, we have to say that Mahesh Babu hasn’t took his balance remuneration from Aagadu makers, while Jr NTR agreed to chop a chunk of his pay packet for Ganesh’s movie being directed by Puri Jagan.

Diwali celebrations have already begun while celebrities are throwing parties to their close circuits and their children are busy buying crackers and dresses. Not exactly like other celebrity kids, Pawan kalyan’s son Akira Nandan and daughter Aadya are preparing their own stuff for festival. 

We can see these two kids busy preparing clay oil lamps for Diwali as it is tradition in the family of Renu Desai. Though Pawan is busy with his movie schedules and Vizag hudhud relief operations, his kids are going to celebrate Diwali at their best.

Jeetu Joseph’s Malayalam flick ‘Drushyam’ is a runaway hit in Malayalam as the Mohan Lal enthralled audiences with its original screenplay and thrilling narration. When remade in Telugu with same title, with Venky in the lead, the film stunned our audiences too as it goes on scoring a big hit for the Daggubati hero after a long time. Fascinated by the film’s stunning success, none other than Kamal Haasan has come forward to star in the Tamil remake of the movie, titled Papanasam, the film is on floors now. What about remake-craving Bollywood then?

Already leading producer and distribution network company Viacom has acquired the rights of Malayalam’s Drishyam, if have to believe. Though the names of Akshay Kumar and Ajay Devgan are initially heard as possible heroes who could star in the remake, now we are hearing Saif Ali Khan’s name. Also this princely hero wants his wife Kareena Kapoor to be roped in for this nail-biting drama, as he wants to thrill audiences saving his on-screen wife from the murder episode. Well, it’s too early to talk about the hero and heroine of Drishyam Hindi remake as nothing is official yet. Wait and see.

Prince Mahesh Babu has given another chance to the production house which has suffered a huge loss with his movies 1-Nenokadine and Aagadu. The 14 Reels Entertainment has again come forward to produce Mahesh’s films even after two flops. The banner has given Mahesh Babu a brand image and has made his film promotions like never other movie.

The banner created sensation in just a few years. After Dookudu bumper hit the banner went upto to produce two other movies that remain disasters of the industry. Apart from these, the 14 Reels Entertainment is again going to produce a film directed by Srikanth Addala. Srikanth told a script to Mahesh and seems like he gave a nod. The 14 Reels Entertainment has now all hopes on this project to recover from loss. 

So, can Mahesh give them profits at least the this time? Or will this be a hattrick flop to the producers? Will Mahesh work free of cost? Anyways lets not make things clear now and still analyse about what’s going to happen!

BOLD, that defines Samantha in one word. Bold to talk good or bad, bold to praise anyone, bold to criticize even super star, bold to express inner feelings, well that is Samantha!Her boldness has invited criticism many times but she won’t stop making controversial statements. The attitude of samanta has earned her many antis and she will be closely observed for her mistakes by anti fans. 

Earlier Samanta earned wrath for her styling when she wore a Kurtha type of dress during Alludu seenu audio launch. Now she was targeted again and this time for her attire in a promo song of Tmail film Katthi. A romantic song in Vijay starrer Kaththi, Samantha sported designer wear outfit, for which she got off-putting retort from anti-fans. 

They compared the costume with Brahmanandam’s in Attarintiki Daredi. Above is the pic of Samantha where her attire was very much similar to the dress Brahmi wore (as Gladiator) in Attarintiki Daredi movie comedy sequence! And we wonder what’s wrong with Samantha. While we don’t compare it with Brahmi’s dress, this is certainly a bad fashion statement from the top actress. We wish someone resurrect her fashion sense soon.

The BJP which is getting spectacular electoral successes in recent times has been making plans for inroads into South India and it is now targeting Tamil Naidu, for which it is working hard, trying to rope in Superstar Rajnikanth promising him to make the chief ministerial candidate. But till now Rajnikanth has reportedly refused to bite the bullet. 

The jail term for Jayalalithaa for recently hogged all the limelight and at a time when BJP was sensing a right opportunity, courtesy letter which was written recently by Rajnikanth to Jayalalitha wishing Jaya good health and Diwali greetings came as a surprise. This in a way reinforces popular perception that Rajni is too nice a person to take up any political fights especially against Jayalalitha who is known to be very vindictive to her opponents. 

The ‘Viswaroopam controversy’ which forced Kamal Haasan to threaten that he would leave the country is still in everyone’s memory after his snipe at Jaya. The BJP now feels that Rajinikanth has surrendered very early to Jaya.

Force formed to protect the interests of Telangana Artists and Technicians are severely objected to film people donating funds to Hudhud Cyclone Victims but not to the people who sacrificed their lives to Telangana cause and farmers who are committing suicides in the new state. Telangana Film Protection Force is demanding the immediate division of Telugu Film Chamber of Commerce in to Andhra Pradesh Film Chamber of Commerce and Telangana Film Chamber of Commerce. 

They are demanding that all the assets of the Film Chamber are to be given 60% to the Telangana Film Chamber of Commerce as Nizam contributes major market for films. To counter this demands, AP Film Chamber of Commerce renamed itself to Telugu Film Chamber of Commerce previously but the agitators are not satisfied. TFPF also met Chief Minister K Chandra Sekhar Rao and demanded him to release a G.O. that every film made in Hyderabad should have 70% of employees belonging to Telangana itself.

The organization vowed to strive till the G.O. is passed. However the big heads of Telugu Film Chamber of Commerce say there is no meaning in the demands of Chamber division and the industry will perish in both the states if divided.

We are hearing from certain quarters, who are quite educated about medieval history of India, about the flaws in the looks of Baahubali and Gannareddy. This might sound quite cynical for fans of the two big stars of Tollywood, but historians say that aboriginal content for the sake of entertaining audience is killing the essence of South India’s pride and history.

Talking about Prabhas’s spine-chilling look from Rajamouli’s magnum opus Baahubali, as the newly released poster is the most talked about, historians say that it is more a South-East Asian inspired look but not truly South Indian. As the story is about a warrior set in South India, one would expect Prabhas to look more that way. But his spiky crown, sleeveless body armor have got a touch of Korean and Japanese warrior looks. If it is South Indian, then our medieval warriors wore less armor and simple or no crown at all. 

Coming to Gona Gannareddy, Allu Arjun is quite fascinating but for people with great command over English history, he is looking like another rebellion in the medieval European times. Close to the gaming character in popular ‘Assasins Creed’, Bunny resembles more of a Robin Hood style warrior but not truly a Kakatiya empire based Telugu king. As Gunasekhar says that Gannareddy character has shades of Robin Hood, maybe we have to accept that not only his character but the character-design is also having shades of that England’s historic rebel.

Probably these looks of Baahubali and Gannareddy keeping the gigantic fan bases of these heroes in mind as they don’t get thrilled until their demi-gods are shown in a never before avatar. We have to see what Rajamouli and Gunasekhar says about this criticism.
