Bollywood Superstar’s always stand perfect examples when comes it defying their age to carve out a rusty six-pack look. Even after coming nearer to 50, stars like Salman, Shahrukh and Amir are busy pumping iron and cutting macho cut-outs that could take youths by a storm. Moving a step ahead, Baadshah SRK has beaten the completion again.

For his upcoming ‘Happy New Year’, Shahrukh sports an 8-pack washboard abs as shown in the picture. The 48 year old superstar feels that age is nothing when we have the desire to do something better on silver screen not just with acting but with good looks too. ‘I can be in a tub full of rose petals with ladies and in a 10 pack for a women director like Farah Khan’, he says. ‘Happy New Year’ releases on Diwali eve on October 24. 

In a rarest of rare comment, Megastar Chiranjeevi took potshots at writers of present days. Generally he never criticizes too much of anything, but his stringent remarks have come out while comparing old and present generation style of film making. Taking a shot at declining success rate, Chiru points out that ‘insecurity’ is the reason.

‘During making of movies like Rowdy Alludu, writers like Satyanand, Jandyala, and their associates would invite me for the script-discussion sessions. Because we never know what input I suggest might help chalking a new scene or a new character’, says Chiru, attributing the super success of his films to team work. ‘Raghavendra Rao is the captain of our ship, but he always takes key in from me or any other actor about improvement of a scene. Similarly we both used to have sessions with Keeravani. I like rock-beat and KRR likes fruits, so fusing those two resulted in ‘Pandu Pandu’ song (Gharana Mogudu) and that paid off’, he added. Chiru rationalized that if team-work is dominated by individual egos then films will taste bitter.

‘These days writers are so insecure that they don’t share story with anyone other than producer. They are worried that someone would confiscate and steal their ideas. That insecurity is the reason for declining success rate wayward to old times, where hit percentage is quite higher’, the matinee idol pointed out. Chiranjeevi, of course made heavy sense with his comments on present day trend. And that insecurity is the reason we are watching chunks of ‘mass’ ‘routine’ ‘illogical’ movies. What say writers?

The laddu of Balapur Ganesh of old city has been auctioned for a record Rs.9.5 lakhs, an increase of Rs.24,000 over last year’s price.

According to Balapur Ganesha utsav committee members four politicians had participated in the auctioning in which Singireddy Jayender Reddy had bagged the prestigious and auspicious laddu. Telagnana minister Mahender Reddy participated in the auctioning program which is held ahead of the nimajjanam event on the last day.

Last year the laddu was bagged in the auction for Rs.9.26 lakhs by the TDP leader Teegala Krishna Reddy. 

Dancing sensation Allu Arjun has unfulfilled dream, to do a proper dance-centric movie, to showcase his abundant grooving skills. The actor who mastered various trendy dance forms like Salsa and hip hop, has reportedly expressed his desire to composer DSP and both have been waiting for the right script, to prove their respective skills. 

Although, it will not be a classical dance based movie like “Sagara Sangamam”(Kamal was a classical dancer) but it would be modern and trend setting movie and are looking for a top director, who could fulfill their big dream. No doubt, Allu Arjun will rock in such a movie, since dancing has been his passion and his dances in films from Arya to Bunny to Desamuduru to Racceguram, we have seen traces of his dancing brilliance. Are top directors listening? 

Despite having a roaring grip on box office, a sea of fans and a timeless stardom, Young Tiger NTR is tumbling to provide right food for movie lovers. Disasters like Dammu, Ramayya Vastavayya and Rabhasa have hurt him like never before. Though time and again he rose like a phoenix after tasting a row of flops, this time he wants the biggest image makeover to happen.

Echoing his interest on a pure drama like Malayalam movie ‘Bangalore Days’, NTR has given enough signals that mass-films are off the cards for a while at least. Latest we hear is that he wants to do a pure love-story with little action and maximum comedy. Reconsidering a past-story narrated by creative director Sukumar, he is now moving pawns to make this project happen soon. Earlier BVSN Prasad has announced a project in NTR-Sukku combination but that doesn’t went on floors after the director has bitten dust with ‘1 Nenokkadine’. But ‘Rabhasa’ has taught enough lessons for NTR to change his mind.

Signing Sukumar at this point will surely help NTR to establish himself in a new angle. Formulaic masala entertainers are no more needed for him as people attributed larger-than-life image to this gifted hero already. Class movies with classic dialogues and screenplay magic with NTR’s acting brilliance not only brings a big makeover, but also makes his films score industry hits. Don’t you think so?

Simone had made splashy debut with her performance on ‘The X Factor’, USA in 2011. Since then she never looked back. Simone even starred in 2012 Hollywood flick We The Party in lead role. The GRL band singer’s last album Ugly Heart was a stupendous hit.

Juggling with series of flops, cute beauty Aksha Pardhasany went off radar from a while. But this hottie found work at some other tinsel town and started her dazzling with a bang. After getting rave reviews for her efforts, she had a reason to smile.

Films like Yuvatha and Ride have won huge recognition for Aksha in Tollywood but not any stardom. Though her second fiddle role in ‘Kandireega’ was expected to be a game changer, much of the game remained unchanged for her. Lately she resorted to huge skin show for flicks like ‘Rai Rai’ but that too disappointed her big time. Finally her debut Tamil flick did all the magic. ‘Saleem’ featuring Vijay Antony and Aksha is doing well at Tamil box office now.

Initially ‘Saleem’ has a limited release, but now it is getting expanded to many screens after critics appreciated the flick. With such a big reason to smile, Aksha has immediately started cashing on the craze by coming up with a fantastic photo shoot. At any producer’s office, these pics are hot topic now.

Dasari attended RGV’s ‘Anukshanam’s auction winners function yesterday and made derogatory remarks on big movies.

Hearing the words of Dasari, the employees of cinema theaters are getting embarrassed. An employee from Dilshukhnagar’s Megha theater says, ” We get maximum profits through the openings of big heroes’ movies. For small budget films there will be no openings and no profits for us.” Vijayawada top theater’s employee threatens, ” If Dasari continues giving such statements, we will revolt against him,” However, a cycle stand’s employee from Kakinada’s Devi multiplex questions, ” Why do you take Dasari’s words seriously? We enjoy his speeches in movie functions. You should also develop the same attitude.”

Among all the songs scored by SS Thaman for his 50th album ‘Aagadu’, what caught your attention?

Seven out of ten are saying that the remix song featuring MaheshBabu’s dialogues from the movie is utter stylish, striking and hair rising. Probably our star heroes might follow suit and come up with similar dialogue-remix songs after getting inspired by this song o Superstar.

Opening with the controversial dialogue ‘Prathivodu.. pululu simhalatho edava comparision’, Thama composed a song titled ‘Aagadu Theme’. With dialogues written by Sreenu Vytla and his team of able writers enthralling audiences already since first teaser of the flick is released, this theme song connected instantly. Earlier during Gramphone/Cassette days, some directors used to includes dialogues of the movie in the audio tape. Bringing back that vintage magic, this dialogue-remix featuring Mahesh’s voice proved that old is gold again.

‘Aagadu’ is slated for September 19th release and the unit are swiftly wrapping up all the post-production work. Mahesh Babu will finish his dubbing part in a day or two.

Film industry is buzzing about two ‘cute’ heroine and their ‘hot’ desires. Of course, we have to dream and dare to achieve it, and young sirens like Swathi and Avika Gor are following it to the core. Despite the work they are finding here in Tollywood, their desires are sensible. Let us see.

New entrant Avika Gor aka Anandi swept a wave across hearts with her belittling performance in Uyyala Jampala. That made her a sought after youngster in Telugu industry. Sharing her thoughts about ‘hot’ desires, Avika is quick to say that she is eyeing an Oscar. Yes, you heard it right. This cute lady wants to bag Oscar award at sometime in life.

Coming to Telugu beauty Swathi, she became a director’s heroine ever since she scored big with Ashta Chamma. However her charisma hasn’t magnified due to some poor flicks she picked. Though she’s on and off in Tollywood and Kollywood, Swathi’s name still rings a bell. Her desire is to bag Filmfare award.

So, we have to wait and watch when these two ‘cute’ girls will walk away with their prized possessions.

Looking into the genres and his styling in his recent films, it appears Prince mahesh needs to be updated. mahesh’s ‘Dookudu’ and ‘Aagadu’ have been made as ‘Action Comedies’. while his ‘Businessman’ and ‘1-Nenokkadine’ were made as action entertainers. However, ‘Seethamma Vaakitlo Sirimalle Chettu’ was a different movie as it was made as a family entertainer. Interestingly, mahesh is seen with same looks in all the above movies. Movie lovers want him to be playing different characters to prove himself the best actor. Moreover, they wish him to try for different genres of films such as ‘fantasies, historical, socio-fantasies, mythological entertainers. Wish that mahesh will listen to them.

mahesh’s ‘Aagadu’ is gearing up for release on September 19. Thaman has composed the music of the movie. Milky beauty Tamannah has romanced with mahesh. Srinu Vaitla has directed this movie on 14 Reels Entertainment.

He would go down as one of the top Telugu directors, who learnt his craft before venturing into a historical 3D stereophonic, to raise the bar on Telugu cinema. We are talking about none other than meticulous filmmaker Gunasekar, who did a 6 months crash course in a popular London Film Institute to learn about the new-age 3D format before launching his big ticket “Rudramma Devi”.

Usually, duration for such courses are meant for 18 months for students, but after analyzing his previous work and experience of gunasekar, the institute, gave him a certificate after completing course and appreciated his fast learning capabilities. Although, directors learn few things about a format, before venturing into it, but Gunaskear remains the only Telugu director, to become a certified director of 3D stereophonic and its first historical 3D film to be made in India. Surely, it has many first to its credit.

Vela Illai Pattadaari’ is the name, and this VIP became a blockbuster in Kollywood recently. It is known that youngster Ram’s uncle has brought remake rights of VIP that starred Danush and Amala Paul. If we look at the critical points that led to this flick’s success in Tamil, one wonder if it could repeat the same in Telugu.

In fact, VIP has no double-entendre comedy, neither extra ordinary interval bangs. It is just a travel of a well educated youth played by Danush, whose life gets a dramatic twist when his doting mother demises suddenly. There’s heroism, intensity and romance, but not like regular masala potboiler. This might look little sluggish for Telugu audiences.

Also the movie is just a solo performance of Danush throughout. His body language suits characterization and stardom helps bringing life to otherwise simple scenes. Can Ram repeat the same? Will this VIP work for him? Not until a chunk of changes happen to script and scenes, he could get a gem out of this remake.

Gen-X starlet Samantha Ruth Prabhu is unleashing the best of her glamorous side with each passing day. After becoming cynosure of all eyes with her mind blowing two piece treat in ‘Anjaan’, she has upped style stakes in Kollywood. Posing seductively for a Chennai based magazine, Samantha now dares with another hot show.

Already her Greek-sculpture like on the cover of page ‘Just for Women’ (JFW) latest edition has blown minds. Adding more fuel to the dazzling fire, Samantha puts up a fantastic cleavage show, giving a beautiful side-view of her bosom in designer dress that hangs just on one shoulder and cut right in front. Undoubtedly this is clear challenge to all the competitors out there. The statement reads, nothing could match Samantha’s daring glamour shows.

Director Gunasekhar has finally wrapped up the shooting of his magnum opus ‘Rudramadevi’, featuring Anushka in the titular role. When he rushed to produce this big and risky budgeted flick, there was little disapproval from trade circle as to why he is doling out such budget for this improperly weaved history. Guna has answers anyway.

Revealing the facts that led him to make Rudramadevi, Gunasekhar said, ‘By 2002 itself I had a fully prepared solid-version of Rudramadevi on paper. But I took ten years for more research and get facts from historians, scholars and books in libraries. I’ve sealed the script in 2012 and started pre-production work’. This clears the fact that Gunasekhar hasn’t weaved his ‘story’ of Kakatiya queen’s history in just 3 months like they do for regular commercial movies. From jewelry to weapons, costumes to chariots, palaces to wars, everything is close to history and accurate in Rudramadevi.

This film is simultaneously being shot in stereoscopic 3D and regular 2D format. Currently visual effects work is going at brisk pace, and ‘Rudramadevi’ might see light in December 2014. Get ready to watch yet another historical and fantastical magic from Gunasekhar after his ‘Bala Ramayanam’.

One of the media-friendly and down-to-earth heroes of Tollywood, Allu Arjun never rubs anyone on the wrong side. But still, he face some criticism during ‘Race Gurram’ time and he is now giving a big retort all that. Can you imagine what that criticism is about?

Undoubtedly Bunny is hailed as the best dancer in Tollywood by many critics and fans alike. For every new movie, he invents new floor-movements, dance language and awe-inspiring leg shaking. However, he is growing heavy in weight which seems like a concern for his admirers. Bunny is slapped by critics for putting on extra weight in Race Gurram unlike his slim posture that enthralled in Arya 2 and Badrinath. Giving retort to such criticism, he has now shed 10 kilos of weight.

As Trivikram is anyway taking time to come up with final version of script, Allu Arjun is busy hitting gym to lose those extra kilos. He is now looking a bit lean than his previous look when he attended some private events the other day. That’s Bunny for you folks!
