Behind The Scene: Quid Pro Quo
Scratch my back and I’ll scratch yours! Isn’t that what politics is all about? While Congress legislators were criticizing KCR’s policy of luring other Partymen to the TRS, veteran Congressman and Rajya Sabha Member, V Hanumantha Rao surprisingly came to the defence of KCR.
“It is not KCR’s fault. It is these people who are joining the TRS willingly. They will come back soon. But KCR cannot be blamed for them joining the TRS,” said Hanumantha Rao.
Why was Rao uncritical of KCR? There is a gymnasium in Sultan Bazaar, Hyderabad by the name of ‘Hanuman Vyayamasala’ housed on about 5000 sq. yards which belongs to the ‘Housing Board’ of Sultan Bazaar.
Hanumantha Rao is the President of ‘Hanuman Vyayamasala’ and he had recently met KCR and requested the latter to regularize the land in the name of the gymnasium. KCR readily agreed to it! Hence the camaraderie between Hanumantha and Chandranna!
‘I Will Get Married This Year’
In the film industry, several rumours keep doing rounds when a heroine does not get married. But when the marriage of heroes gets delayed, no one’s really bothered, but the press does not leave them alone.
In the past, Allari Naresh had declared that he was on the lookout to get married and confirmed that it would be an arranged marriage. But 2014 is over and we didn’t hear the good news as yet.
When he was the asked the question in the New Year, Naresh says just like pregnancy, one cannot stop marriage too when the time is right. Well, one can’t really blame him as he hasn’t had a hit in a long time. Also, he has now gotten into production and all his focus is on wrapping up his forthcoming venture Bandipotu which also stars him in the lead.
And talk in the industry is that the film will help in turning around the fate of Naresh. If everything goes as planned, Naresh says he will tie the knot in summer of 2015. But if he gets the right girl, he will get married earlier, say his close friends.
Pawan-Charan-Trivikram Movie May Not Happen
Contrary to rumours that Pawan Kalyan and Ram Charan would team up for a multi-starrer to be directed by Trivikram Srinivas and produced by Bhagavan Pullarao, it is learnt that the movie is not happening. Sources close to Pawan made it clear that Pawan and Charan doing a film together would be out of question. It’s not that Pawan Kalyan is against to the idea but even Ram Charan has few reservations that Pawan might overshadow him.
Although Charan has great liking towards his Babayi Pawan Kalyan and even stated this publicly on several occasions, but teaming up in profession has many equations. Charan may not gain professionally by sharing screen space with his Baabayi and in turn he may lose out to Pawan.
Few combinations should seem good on paper and in news but practically there involves a slew of hassles for multi-starrers, says an industry source. Meanwhile, many upcoming multi-starrers are under various stages of production.
While Pawan-Venky’s Gopala Gopala is due for release, Nag-Karthi movie, Allari Naresh-Vishnu film, Venkatesh-Ravi Teja, Siddharth-Naga Chaitanya-Aarya (Bangalore Days remake) are on cards. But we hear that Pawan-Charan movie is out of it. So for mega fans who are desperate to watch both Baabayi and Abbayi on screen, it’s disappointing.
Pawan Kalyan Breaks Mahesh Babu’s Record
Whenever you speak about big star rivalry, the current trend has been about the tussle between power star Pawan Kalyan and superstar Mahesh Babu. As such, both stars don’t have those airs of competition or rivalry but the heat is intense between their followers and fans.
However, here is an interesting byte. It appears that Pawan has broken Mahesh’s record. This is in terms of the members they follow on the social networking site Twitter. Apparently, Mahesh Babu follows only one person in Twitter and that is his brother-in-law Galla Jayadev.
It is heard that Mahesh has a very high regard and respect for Jayadev. While that is one side, Pawan has beaten Mahesh given the fact that he is not even following even one person.
Fans of the power star are rallying on this point and rejoicing but Mahesh fans are reportedly stating that since Pawan is just born on Twitter, it is only a matter of time before he will start following more members than Mahesh. Let us see what happens.
Big Heroine Doles Out Health Tips
At 39, Preity Zinta is fit and glowing. She says it’s easy to be healthy as long as one checks portions of food, drinks water and controls carbohydrate intake.

* Drink at least two glasses of water when you wake up and eat something within the first 15 minutes of waking up. Best thing for your body.
Any Party no bar, She wants MP Seat!
These days the notion of principles have more or less become redundant in politics and the same holds good for most of the political parties and politicians. Same is the case with Jayaprada, who was once the star campaigner and symbol of TDP’s women strength. But later she left Chandrababu Naidu after he lost power.
She followed her mentor Amar Singh wherever he went and now with Amar becoming inactive, she has come back to AP and tested political waters for more than a year. After choosing Congress and then backtracking, knocking the doors of TDP and being rejected and almost touching YSRCP but backtracking, now this Rajahmundry lady is in touch with TRS for reasons best known to her.
The talk in political circles is that as long as she is given Rajya Sabha MP Seat, no party is pariah for her! After doing her part as a heroine, Jayprada has been constantly tugging at the Rajya Sabha and it remains to be seen whether the TRS will oblige to her charms or not.
Charan ditches sexy heroine! Why?
The present trending heroine in the Tollywood industry, Rakul Preet Singh who is like a hot cake to every director and hero, seems to be ditched by Ram Charan Tej. But for whom did Charan ditch? Why did he prefer dropping Rakul?
Well, it is for charmingly beautiful Samantha while Ram Charan dropped the idea of having Rakul in the cast. if we go by the earlier reports, it is known that Ram Charan has shown interest in Rakul Preet to rope her into the next project. But, sources say that Charan has preferred to act with Samantha rather than Rakul.
What do you think is the reason? However, if Samantha is finalized then this would be the first pairing of Samantha and Cherry on screen. The movie is being produced by DVV Danayya. However, the other cast and crew members are yet to be confirmed. So, do you think Srinu can prove himself?
Suma Ignores Small Films
Most of you must be avid watchers of television and you would also have your favorite programs and celebrities in that. And it doesn’t need any effort to let you know who Suma Kanakala is. Well, she happens to be the number one anchor in the small screen industry from a long time. But recently she did something which raised eyebrows.
Well, Suma was anchoring the audio release event of the film ‘Gopala Gopala’ and she announced that this movie is January’s first release. Those who heard this are asking what about films like ‘Mana Kurralle’ ‘Raghuvaran BTech’ and ‘A Shyam Gopal Varma Film’. Don’t they come under the category of films?
They added that Suma seems to have a negligent approach towards the small budget flicks. But there are also those who don’t find fault with her. They state that it is not like Suma wanted to belittle those other films but the ‘Gopala Gopala’ mania is so high that her mind must have been filled completely with that. Only Suma can clarify that.
