Sizzling seductress Samanta romanced Prince Mahesh Babu in Dookudu and Seetamma Vakitlo Sirimalle Chettu. Both turned out to be sensational hits. Currently Mahesh is starring in a film titled Aagadu directed by Srinu Vytla.

Waiting for Jagan’s decision
YSR Congress senior leader Konatala Rama Krishna said he would support any decision taken by the party chief Y S Jaganmohan Reddy on the admission of Dadi Veerabhadra Rao who just left the TDP.
Talking to the media here on Friday, he said he came to know that Dadi would be meeting Jagan on Saturday and added that he was appealing to the party cadres to wait for Jagan’s decision and not to lose their patience. He said such incidents were common in new parties.
It may be recalled that some followers of Konatala were opposing the admission of Dadi. Dadi is reportedly asking Anakapalli seat to his son Ratnakar. Followers of Konatala who have been trying for the seat are angry that a new entrant was trying to snatch away the seat, while they have been serving the party ever since its inception.
Will he cross the Pawan and Charan
Pawan Kalyan and Ramcharan are for now the top heroes from Mega camp who have built a strong BO fort with blessings of Fans. But, one more hero arriving from same camp happens to be sai dharamtej. Although, waiting for completion of shooting and release of ‘Rey’ in direction of YVS Chowdary, finally time seems to be running on his way with this proved director cum producer announcing the possible summer release.
‘After ‘Devadas’ and ‘Desamuduru;’ I haven’t seen any bigger and grand level films targeted only at youth. ‘Rey’ is a musical commercial love story made on a big scale. I can see a minimum of Rs.30 Crores business for this project after release,’ YVS was enough confident. If this number is achieved really by Sai then he will cross the first film benchmarks of Pawan and Charan because ‘Akkada Ammayi Ikkada Abbayi’ and ‘Chirutha’ were not sensational hits.

Jagga Reddy upper hand over the TRS
Government Whip Jagga Reddy appears to have gained an upper hand over the TRS chief and Mahabubnagar MP K Chandrasekhara Rao.
It may be recalled that the Chief Minister threw a challenge to KCR during his recent visit to Medak district. Referring to the threat of KCR that he would cause an earth quake if Bayyaram iron ore was shifted to the Visakhapatnam Steel Plant, Kiran said he knew how to face earth quakes. He also told KCR that Bayyaram iron ore would be allotted to only Visakhapatnam Steel Plant and there would be no change in the government’s decision.
Reacting to this statement of the chief minister, TRS gave call for Medak bandh. Jagga Reddy said he would ensure that the bandh would flop. True to his word, he ensured that the bandh was not a total success. Bandh on Friday was only partial in the district. Though TRS leaders like Harish Rao tried to obstruct buses from leaving the depots, they could not paralyze the bus services. Harish Rao, former MLA Padma Devender Reddy and others were arrested by the police for obstructing buses.
True to the challenge of Jaggareddy that the people of Medak would not support the bandh, there was no shut down in Sangareddy. Though some TRS workers came out and asked shop owners to down their shutters, congress workers and supporters of Jagga Reddy were also present on roads in good numbers assuring the traders. Buses are plying as usual and commercial establishments, shops and hotels were open.
However, at Sangareddy, two buses were burnt by unidentified persons during the wee hours of Friday.
Harish Rao deplored Jagga Reddy’s attempts to oppose the bandh. Speaking to the media before his arrest at the Siddipet depot, he made it clear that the people of Telangana would not be mute spectators if the government sent Bayyaram iron ore to Visakha. He also demanded the police to release all the arrested TRS activists.
Police raided the houses of TRS leaders on Thursday night and early Friday and taken them into preventive custody in view of the bandh.

Performance
Nagarjuna, though slim and handsome looked bit old in the character. Nagarjuna failed to bring the right kind of emotions in key scenes. Except in Greeku Veerudu song, there are not many steps in choreography.
Nayantara looked dull in the movie. She too looked old and pale in close ups. Definitely her spark is missing in this film.
Meera Chopra role is very small and wouldn’t gain anything out of it. K Vishwanth is routine in grandfather role. Ashish Vidyarthi and Kota appear in negative roles.
Brahmanandam, M S Narayana and Dharmavarapu Subramanyam and Kovai Sarala entertain you in comedy roles. Rest of the supporting cast is okay.
Final Talk
It is a below average movie.
Verdict : More Pain and Less Gain
Rating : 2.25/5
