If Krishnamma Touches Durgamma, Where will be AP Capital?
Just like the world has known about the prophecies of Nostradamus, the Telugu people have their own seer in the form of Pothuluri Veerabrahmendra Swamy. Centuries ago, he came up with predictions that are still turning out to be true. Now, one of his predictions is causing tensions in Andhra Pradesh capital Vijayawada.
Apparently, Brahmam garu predicted that a day will come when the water of river Krishna will touch the nose ring of Goddess Kanakadurgamma who sits atop a hill in a temple. For the Vijayawada belt floods tension is there and if a cyclone happens floods can come and cause havoc.
A capital city getting flooded is quite a concern not just for the people but also for the authorities. So, a discussion was happening when the topic of Brahmam Gari prophecy came up and it triggered the panic button. Of course, he has not predicted when that will happen but it is better to take precautions because you never know, anything can happen.
Hero Vishal attacks on Video shop and catches Piracy CDs
Not for the first time, but second time in a row action-hero Vishal has done the unthinkable by catching a big piracy group who are minting lakhs of rupees by illegally recording movies through a video camera at some rural theatres and selling DVD-VCDs of those films.
At a typical Taminadu town Tiruppur, Vishal has approached a movie-renting DVD-CD store where the miscreants are selling piracy version of his recently released flick ‘Poojai’. Along with his movie, Vishal got shocked to see Katthhi pirated DVDs too. It happens to be this famous ‘Thiruttu VCD’ gang, a master-group of piracy making in Tamilnadu, which Vishal has publicly nabbed. After unearthing 100s of DVDs of latest movies, our hero called police to nab perpetrators.
This is not the first time for Vishal, as earlier too he has raided a DVD shop in the midnight to catch illegal prints of his the then movie ‘Palnadu’. Meanwhile, Vishal’s Poojai is doing well in theaters across Tamilnadu while it is performing average at Tollywood box office.

Banned Telugu Channel cuts salaries by 50%?
Fazed by the sudden blockage of its telecast in Telangana by T-MSOs (Multiple system operators), leading Telugu news channel has reportedly cut short the salaries of its employees in the region by 50%. However, the channel management assured them that they would “restore” their salaries once the situation is brought back to normalcy.
According to media reports, the channel told its employees to pay only 50% of their salaries for time-being. However, the minimum take home for low-salaried employees has been fixed at Rs 20,000 whereas high-salaried employees get only 50% of their salary. “We will restore the salaries once revenues are back to normal,” management reportedly told its employees. Interestingly, employees too accepted for the proposal and decided to support the management in the issue.
With the channel’s telecast has been blocked over four months in Telangana including Hyderabad and Secunderabad, we hear that the “ban” has a telling effect on the revenues of the channel. Meanwhile, reports are rife that the ban will be lifted within a week. The Telecom Disputes Settlement and Appellate Tribunal (TDSAT) has reportedly told the MSOs (Multiple system operators) to resume the broadcast of that TV channel within a week from October 29.
