Jagan would not get bail until he merged his party in Congress

Share
Y S Bharati, wife of the jailed YSR Congress chief Y S Jaganmohan Reddy,  has alleged that the cases registered against her husband were politically motivated.

Talking to the English channel NDTV, she said it was the aim of the CBI to keep Jagan in jail as long as possible and even a small kid knew it.

Recalling that the agency has been investigating the case for the last 21 months, Bharati said when Jagan filed bail petition in October, CBI asked for 3 more months of time. Now, 8 months had passed and the agency was asking for 4 more months. She also pointed at the CBI counsel’s talk  soon after the court’s verdict that they might ask for extension of even that time. She said these words themselves show that the agency had no intention of concluding the case in the near future. Alleging that there was no progress at all in the investigation, Bharati reminded about the statement of the union minister Kotla Surya Prakasha Reddy that Jagan would not get bail until he merged his party in Congress.

She also recollected how another senior union minister Ghulam Nabi Azad also said that Jagan would not have faced all these cases if he remained in the Congress. Stating that people knew that all the cases against Jagan were false, she said whenever elections were held, people would teach them a fitting lesson. Alleging that Congress influences the CBI, she said this was evident from the way the agency handled the DMK, Mulayam Singh Yadav, Mayavati and Yeddyurappa alliance.

Speaking on the charges of allying with the UPA, she questioned why Jagan would be in jail if there was such an agreement. She said they would keep the national interests in view in the next elections. She lamented that those who issued GOs and were responsible for the irregularities were moving about freely, while  Jagan who was no way connected to the GOs,  was sent to jail.

Setback for Sanjay Dutt!

Share
The Supreme Court today rejected Bollywood star actor Sanjay Dutt’s review petition in Mumbai bomb blasts case. The court has also ordered Mr. Dutt to surrender before May 15th. Mr Dutt was convicted for illegal possession of weapons during serial blasts in 1993. The 53-year-old filmstar has already spent about 18 months in jail and has to serve for the remaining three and a half years more.

In April, the court had dismissed Dutt’s appeal that he be given six more months to surrender before court to let him finish pending films. But the court gave him only one month extra to wrap up his work.

Sukumarudu Telugu Movie Review – 2/5

Share

Rating: 2/5
Film: Sukumarudu
Starring: Aadi,Nisha Agarwal,Krishna,Sharada
Director: G. Ashok
Producer: K. Venugopal
Banner: Sri Soudhamini Creations
Music: Anoop Rubens

Story

Sukumar (Aadi) is a NRI working for a US company who gives much preference to money and is selfish by nature. To start his own firm, he needs hefty amount and at this point of time, he comes to know that his family who lives in a village has a property worth 150Crores. He immediately flies to the village on a plan to sell the property and invest in the bank to commence his dream project. He meets his grandmother Vandanamma (Sharada) uncle Rao Ramesh and falls in love with Sankari (Nisha Aggarwal). Will Sukumar succeed in his plan or changes his nature forms the rest of the story.

Performances

Aadi once again proves that he is a great dancer and he is good at action sequences but he needs to work on emotional scenes and comic timing.

Nisha Agarwal is beautiful especially in the songs, but her pairing with Aadi misses the mark in the film.

Super Star Krishna is brief but delivers a decent performance and actress Sharada is an asset for the movie. The film had many artists like MS Narayana, Raghu Babu, Dhanraj, Jaya Prakash Reddy, Thagubothu Ramesh but the comedy didn’t work much and they are wasted in poor roles.

Technical Analyis

Cinematography is fine while Anup Rubens musical scores are a decent. The background score is loud at times. Editing is pathetic with no consistency. Dialogues hardly impress. Ashok Kumar’s direction is bad and screenplay looked illogical. Production values are not upto the mark.

Analysis

Director Ashok has come up with a routine story, it could have been quite different had the director incorporated gripping screenplay, instead it was terrible. Logic has gone for toss big time and the flow is inconsistent with few scenes appearing from nowhere. With too many supporting actors neither of them had interesting roles and poor writing clearly plays the spoilsport. Even the romantic scenes between the leads never worked and misplaced songs irritate even more. The interval twist is a bit interesting and makes the audiences look for some entertainment in store but the same predictable and too many melodrama scenes make the proceedings worse. The run length is almost 3 hours with none of the interesting scenes in the scenes, the viewers go restless. Besides very few scenes, Sukumarudu looked dull.

Final Verdict

Routine story and poor executions makes Sukumarudu a painful watch!!!

Thadaaka Telugu Movie Review – 3/5

Share

Rating : 3/5
Film: Thadaka
Starring: Naga Chaitanya,Sunil,Tamanna,Andrea Jeremiah
Director: Kishore Kumar Pardasani
Producer: Bellamkonda Suresh
Banner: Sri Sai Ganesh Productions
Music: Thaman

Story
The story revolves around two brothers Siva Rama Krishna (Sunil), a timid guy becomes a cop with the force of Karthik (Naga Chaitanya), a tough guy. Sivarama Krishna is assigned to take on Bagga (Ashutosh Rana), an evil smuggler. With the support of Karthik, Siva Rama Krishna earns the trust of department bashing up the goons taking on Bagga.
Nandu (Andrea Jeremiah) and Pallavi (Tamanna) two sisters also live on the same town, while the former gets married to Siva Rama Krishna the latter falls in love with Karthik. In this situation, Bagga gets to know that Karthik is behind Shiva Rama Krishna and what does the latter do in the situation? How does Karthik help his brother forms the crux.
Performances
Naga Chaitanya has showed quite a lot of improvement and this time he does his role with much ease and subtle expressions. He is stylish and impressive in the action episodes and romantic scenes.
Sunil is perfect fit for the role of cop who later transforms into powerful cop with the support of his brother. His comic timing works in the first half and at the same time he does well in the fight scenes in the latter half.
Tamanna oozes oomph and sizzles in her glamorous role. She doesn’t have much to do performance wise but makes her presence felt. However, she shares a good chemistry with Chaitanya and their combo scenes are a visual treat.
Andrea Jeremiah is good looking and does her role well. Ashutosh Rana as dreadful villain is impressive, Srinivas Reddy, Jaya Prakash Reddy and Brahmanandam are there to bring few laughs.
Technical Analysis
Cinematography by Arthur Wilson is first-class and the film looked quite colorful, Thaman’s music is good and the background score has required essence. Dolly (Kishore Kumar Pardasani) direction is good while the screenplay is taut packed with racy entertainment. Editing is crisp and neat. Production values of Sri Sai Ganesh Productions are standard.

Analysis
Tadakha being the remake of Vettai follows the same script and screenplay without many changes. Both Sunil and Naga Chaitanya have equally good and challenging roles and they have done quite well. The first half of the film is racy and entertaining while the second half lacks the pace at times. The comedy could have been high in the second half as well. Scenes between the Naga Chaitanya and Tamanna are entertaining likewise the emotional bonding between the two brothers have been captured nicely. Climax is effective and had the solid punch.
Thadaka has all the right commercial elements including action, humor, romance, glamour with good technical values, also sticks to the Telugu audiences nativity factor. The film has all the needed elements to set the cash registers ringing at the Box-Office.
Final Verdict
Racy fun-filled action entertainer that doesn’t disappoint!!!
