Star Batsman’s one-liner to media after 6 months!

Share
No one can forget the hungama done by former CM of United AP, Kiran Kumar Reddy while fighting the process of bifurcating Andhra Pradesh. At a time he emerged from the shadows of being a sealed cover CM to rising a stunning revolt against Congress high command. It is believed that although he wasn’t successful in stalling bifurcation, he is seen as the one responsible for congress wipe out in AP, by projecting his own part as the villain. 
There has been much speculations about his next moves although he is being dismissed as a faded politician confined to history. Now for the first time after elections, he spoke to media at a private function and when the media asked about his next moves, he just replied ‘You are seeing now that what I said is true regarding bifurcation’!

Wrong Choice by Jagan?

Share
The leader of Opposition YS Jagan Reddy is bracing up for Maha Dharna against the Andhra Pradesh government alleging that its stand is “anti-people” and “anti-farmers”. Jagan and his YSR Congress Party is going to sit on a Maha Dharna in Vizag on December 5th demanding “justice” for farmers and Dwacra women accusing TDP for “failing” to keep its poll promise of loan waiver.
Jagan choosing Vizag as the venue for this Maha Dharna is raising many eyeballs including within his party. In first place, YSRCP hardly have strength in the district as it lost in the polls. In fact, YSRCP’s honorary president YS Vijayamma too lost as Vizag MP. Already TDP has good fold in the area. 
Secondly, after the recent cyclonic storm Hudhud, CM Chandrababu Naidu has become a sort of hero over there. Naidu, who had lived in a bus, and monitored all relief and help activities in Vizag and saw to it that Naidu not just successfully handled the whole Cyclone situation, he played pivotal role in minimising loss of human lives. 
Naidu’s effective disaster management prowess earned him laurels across the globe and several countries like US, Singapore, Japan, China amazed at the way Andhra Pradesh handled the situation. This is not all. Naidu literally won the hearts of Vizagites. So, Jagan sitting up on a Maha Dharna in Vizag is definitely a wrong choice, says political analysts.

‘Yes, Anushka and I Dating Each Other’

Putting rest to rumours on their relation, Indian star cricketer Virat Kohli has finally admitted that Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma and he are in a relation. “It is out in the open (Jo hai sabke saamne hai abhi). We are not hiding anything, we are not trying to hide anything. I don’t want to hide anything. 
But if you get repeatedly asked on the same thing and if it is made a matter of debate then both the individuals don’t feel it is right,” said Kohli on Friday in Mumabi who attended a private event. Kohli added that it was already obvious that he and Anushka were in a relationship and people should not be curious about them anymore. “If you are seen together somewhere and still people ask ‘is it confirmed?’, then it is a matter of common sense. 
If you know then why ask the same question, that is our basic logic behind it. It is not something wrong apparently for people that we are doing. “We will not personally like to speak about it because it is something very personal for us and that should be respected by the media and everyone else as well,” Kohli said.

When asked why he is creating controversy to generate interest on his film Ice Cream 2, he said he is not doing so but it is media and people who are misinterpreting. He said the moment he gets any thoughts, he tweets irrespective of his film release or not. he pointed out that even when he made some comments on Lord Ganesh or on Power Star Pawan Kalyan he said there were no films releasing. 
He said it is wrong on people to think that if he creates controversy on some issue people will see his films. He said only if content and story is good,people will watch and otherwise they will not. On Tirumala and Yadagirigutta he said he still donot believe in gods but got a doubt so just put a question. If anyone can clarify his doubt they can do rather than target him. 
When asked why he is praising KCR, he said he is a big fan of him and he is the most beautiful than legendary NTR and he would vote for KCR above Tamanna and Ileana. He said he was happy when KCR announced that he would develop Yadagirigutta as Vatican and though he is a non believer, he likes yadagirigutta as he visited the place manytimes during his childhood on excursion.

Allu Arjun beats Ram Charan and NTR

Share
Allu Arjun’s film with Trivikram is making so much noise among the trade circles with buyers going berserk in grabbing the rights of it. This film is all set to do more than 50 crores business prior to the release. This is huge for someone like Allu Arjun who was considered a lesser star compared to the likes of NTR and Ram Charan. 
NTR and Ram Charan have an edge in Ceded and other mass dominated areas, but when it comes to Nizam and overseas, they are lagging far behind Mahesh and Pawan Kalyan. Now Allu Arjun too joined the big league by getting mind blowing offers for his new film. A star’s potential and stamina is determined by the pre release business of his films.
In that case Allu Arjun has surpassed NTR and Charan by huge margin with Trivikram’s film. His guest appearance in Rudrama Devi is also working in favor of that movie. Buyers are investing big money in it after signing up Allu Arjun for Gona Ganna Reddy role. Race Gurram has put Allu Arjun ahead of many of his competitors and it is high time for others to wake up.
