No publicity, no announcement and no hungama!! That’s Trivikram Srinivas decoded from the happenings that took place around ‘Industry Hit’ Attarintiki Daredi. Exactly around same time last year, Pawan’s magic took Tollywood by a surprise and went to ring registers till 73 crore share-record, the highest of all time.

Film lovers are echoing that this magical writer cum content director has repeated the same for his next with Allu Arjun. A year after delivering such a stunning hit like Pawan’s AD, Trivikram has kick-started shooting of his next project without any noise. From muhurat event to shooting plans, everything is kept under the wraps like the way AD was started at Film Nagar temple quite silently.

Bunny too revealed no single detail about the film other than the news that it is a romantic love story that has three female-leads including Samantha and Adah Sharma. Well, mega fans are hoping yet another ‘industry hit’ provided with these sentiments engulfing the flick. The ‘Julayi’ combination is at work anyway! 

What’s more important for success of Govindudu Andarivadele at box office? Negative hype! Yes, you read it right. At the moment, it is ‘negative’ hype that could surely save big ticket entertainers from going the disastrous way.

‘Rabhasa’ and ‘Aagadu’ disappointed fans big time, due to the heavily stuffed routine content with no stroke of new scenes. But fate is that ‘Power’ and ‘Loukyam’ are also made with similar stuff and they are getting steady reports from trade circles. Simple logic is that over ‘hype’ killed chances of Jr NTR and Mahesh as fans are expecting ‘industry hits’ from them. Otherwise, these two movies are slightly better than Raviteja and Gopichand’s offerings. Similar sounding ‘Rabhasa’ is declared disaster, while ‘Loukyam’ got a red carpet opening.

In the recent past, films like Attarintiki Daredi, Race Gurram and Manam released without a speck of ‘exaggerated’ publicity and that led to their phenomenal success. Govindudu Andarivadele being a family movie, the less the hype is, the high the success will be. Charan should pray for a negative pre-release hype such that it triggers fantastic collections post release. 

The music of Dikkulu Choodaku Ramayya, unveiled recently, is refreshing and soothing. Each song stands out in its own respective. This is certainly out-of-the-box and experimental music album which one don’t often find/listen in Telugu. Be it “Dintana…” or “Chembistri…” or “Telipotunna” or “Anthe Premanthe”, or “Andari Rathalu” each song has an undercurrent message to present youth. Title song “Dikkulu Choodaku” seems to be a montage song before the interval. Lyrics of the album are simple, energetic and sinking with the tunes.

Yet the album has its share of shortcomings. Like we said before, this is an experimental album and may not strike chord with regular set of audiences. Especially, don’t expect romantic songs from this album. The songs are a bit slow and the length of few songs (like Dintana) might put off. Barring this, the album of Dikkulu Choodaku Ramayya is novel attempt and deserves all the accolades. On whole, Dikkulu Choodaku Ramayya is MM Keeravani’s masterstroke.

Sankranthi and Dasara are two big festivals for Telugu Film Industry as filmmaker pounce on theatres that time to cash on the cash-rich holiday season. Already 2014 is on the edge of wrapping its Dasara share with Govindudu Andarivadele release, and the next big thing to look out for is Sankranthi 2015.

Irrespective of the two weeks delay due to altercations between hero and director, Jr NTR and Puri Jagan duo are on fire yet again as they resumed shoot the other day. ‘Neno Rakam’ geared up for a non-stop schedule from yesterday at a specially erected set in Aluminum factory, Hyderabad. Busy with GAV promotions, producer Bandla Ganesh confirmed that this will hit screens on January 9, 2015 as promised. Provided with the way he stood by his word on GAV’s October 1st date despite re-shoots and schedule postponements, we could surely believe that even Jr NTR will hit screens on said date.

In that case, NTR will be competing with Pawan Kalyan and Venkateshs ‘Gopala Gopala’ that is aiming for a release around same time. Till date Pawan Kalyan is solo contender in coming January, but now NTR is also joining him to rain more entertainment for Telugu audiences. 

Mega director VV Vinayak has always publicly expressed his love for Megastar Chiranjeevi as he happens to be a hardcore mega fan since young age. But his absence at audio launch of Ram Charan’s Govindudu Andarivadele led to many speculations about a possible rift with mega family. Though Chiru likes him personally, there is no word to him about 150th flick though he bounced many ideas for scripts.

This is being said as the possible reason for ‘differences’. One may stress that Vinayak is busy with ‘script’ work of either Chiru’s 150th film or Akhil’s debut flick at it is rumored, but he surprised by making his presence felt at ‘Power’ triple platinum disc function the other day. This added more spice to the rumors that all is not well between the ‘mega’ director and Megastar.

If he could attend Power event among busy schedule, why not GAV audio launch? Close quarters however condemned all these reports saying there is no iota of truth in them. ‘Chiru is waiting for Govindudu’s release and finalizing next flick before thinking about his own 150th. There is nothing like a friction between him and Vinayak’, a source added.

Playing her first ‘super’ over in Tollywood, hot Miss India finalist Rakul Preet Singh is now having ‘six’ projects in her kitty and the result she could beget with each project is directly responsible for her position in Tollywood.

Rakul is the only contemporary who signed a bunch of flicks in a row, thanks for Venkatardi Express success. Along with today’s release, Gopichand’s Loukyam, Rakul is part of flicks including Manoj’s Current Teega, Ram’s Pandaga Chesko, Aadi’s Rough, Nitin’s untitled movie, Raviteja’s Kick 2. Among these six flicks, say six balls, our hot bikini-lady should hit at least two sixes to reach into big league.

With ‘Loukyam’, she proved that glamour is her forte, but seriously she should focus on improvising her ‘acting’ and ‘dancing’ skills. For any heroine to succeed commercially, these two things are most vital factors. That’s Rakul folks!

The ‘best’ comedy sequences that we have seen in the recent days are Brahmi’s ‘Kill Bill Pandey’ in Racegurram and now ’30 years industry’ Prithvi’s ‘Boiling Star’ in Loukyam movie. In between there are treats by Saptagiri like ‘Magajathi Aanimuthyam’ in Lovers movie. What could be read from these hilarious sequences is that most of them are entertaining audiences by throwing ‘spoofs’ on famous punch dialogues of star heroes or on their the characters themselves.
 
If Killbill Pandey is like Dabangg’s Chulbul Pandey, then Brahmi uses Prabhas ‘Mirchi’ dialogue, ‘Cutout choosi konni konni nammeyali dude’ in his Race Gurram comic riot. Similarly he echoed modified dialogues of various other star-heroes in Loukyam too. If we come to Prithvi’s ‘Boiling Star’ role, then Loukyam climax is full of his parody dialogues uttered by Balayya in Legend. Also this Boiling Star utters the line “Cheppandra abbayilu.. what to do, what not to do?”, mimicking Mahesh Babu even when his Aagadu punches are still running in theatres.

Fans of star heroes are unhappy with this ‘spoof’ ‘parody’ and ‘mimicking’ trend as they feel that such scenes are mere mockery of a honest effort of their heroes. ‘Roping in a comedian and making fun by parody dialogues is no healthy comedy. In fact it encourages other heroes’ fans to enjoy more than whose dialogue that is being ripped off. Is this a good trend?’ asks a cine lover. 

Rana Daggubati is back to Bollywood again.The handsome hunk who was last seen as cop in Bollywood movie Department is again playing same role.We already reported about Rana comeback film Baby and here is the first look of Rana in Baby.

The film shooting is currently progressing in Abu Dhabi, where they are canning high intense action sequences in desert locations.  According to reports Rana is playing an undercover cop Jai in this film. Holding a gun and sporting a beard Rana is looking like a real commando.  Baby has Akshay Kumar and Taapsee playing the lead roles.

Neeraj Pandey is known for making intellectual films and Baby is also expected to have some thrilling moments. Interim, the actor who has completed Rudramadevi shooting is currently busy with Prabhas starrer and Rajamouli directing Bahubali.Baby is scheduled for a January 23, 2015 release.

Allu Ajun made a mark of his own in the Industry. He made an impressive debut with ‘Gangothri’ in 2003 and ever since then there is no looking back. Films like Arya, Bunny, Parugu, Arya 2, Vedam ,Julayi and Race Gurram have been successful at the Box Office and he has become a bankable star because of those projects.

The stylish star Recently turned father and he was enjoying the fatherhood to core.Bunny is currently busy with his next film in Trivikram direction.Above is the exclusive pic of Bunny from sets of the movie and we find how much affection Bunny has on the kids. When he saw the pretty kid on sets, Bunny took her to his lap and requested the baby to kiss him. How cute the little child is right?

Many wonder why people rave about Power Star Pawan Kalyan and try to gauge Pawanism. While some write it off as sheer madness and hype created by media, some of the acts of the hero itself increases his image in the society.

When traces of honesty is lost in corrupt,selfish society, Power Star turned honest star. He showed that he is not after name and fame but values relations and commitment. It is known that Pawan started Janasena Party and played pivotal role in the victory of TDP-BJP combine. During the party launch he organsied two huge public meetings in Hyderabad and Visakhapatnam. PVP alias Potluri Vara Prasad funded the event worth 6.5 crs from his personal account.

This PVP paid to Pawan as advance for the film he planned with him at that time. However PVP couldn’t realise his dream of becoming a MP contesting from Vijayawada. He couldn’t get the ticket as Pawan’s lobbying didnot work. So Pawan’s project with PVP didnot take off. Everyone wondered whether PVP should forego all his money. However Pawan is not that kind of person.

He returned the entire amount after taking advance from Mythri Movies banner. It is known that Pawan signed a project with Mytrhi Movies who are currently producing Mahesh-Koratala Shiva’s project. Pawan’s film will start after his Gopala Gopala and Gabbar Singh 2. Pawan proved he is very very special star.

In the last few years, along with male stars and directors, even top actresses have hiked their remunerations shocking everyone? Are they worth the money, they are pocketing, even though, their presence in star movies is limited for four songs and four scenes.

Of course, they do add glam quotient but everyone knows that they can’t pull in viewers on their own. so shouldn’t they re-think about slashign their hefy pay cheques. For instance, A-listers like Tammanah, Samanta and Shruti Hassan charging around Rs. 1.75 crores each, while Kaajal, Nayantara, Anushka, Trisha are pocketing around Rs. 1.5 crore and new-age actresses like Praneetha, Regina, Rakul, Rishi Khanna are quoting between 40 to 60 lakhs, to add up to the rising costs of movies.

“First-line actresses should cut down their payments and charge 60 lakhs for their 60 days work and lesser known actresses should fixed around 20 lakhs, then it would be moderate” says a source. Will top actresses, heed to such requests?

If rumours are to be believed, comedy star Allari Naresh, who is one of the bankable star for small budget movies, has reportedly lashed out at superstars for spoiling the genre of comedy. Instead of taking names, the Seematapakai star felt that big stars doing comedy instead of doing action roles and larger-than-life roles are leaving no space with small actors like him.

In a private conversation with a young director, son of EVV, felt that small stars survive on ‘comedy’ whereas big stars can do different themes, since they have a established fan following, but they shouldn’t get into a smaller zone by doing comedy flicks. With Pawan, Mahesh, NTR, Prabhas doing comic-driven roles, his worry looks, reasonable. 

The big marathons of big films that have hit Tollywood in last couple of months have literally disappointed many cine lovers as none could match expectations. But it seems like Ram Charan is going to suffice the hunger, as we hear the ‘talk’ from Censor Board.

Censored with U/A, Govindudu Andarivadele is gearing up for a ‘mega’ release on October 1st as scheduled. Reports have that the whole film has loads of comedy, sentiment, peak emotions and romance. As songs are quite romantic in trademark Krishna Vamsi style and some ‘cozy’ scenes between Charan and Kajal are slightly above boundaries, GAV fetched this U/A certificate, say sources.

However Censor Board members got struck with the clean portrayal of family bonding and lauded Krishnavamsi’s unconventional approach. Insiders felt that Govindudu is going to be another 45+ crore wonder in Charan’s career. Let us wait till October 1st before making any conclusions.

Dusky siren Regina Cassandra is one hot lady who is waiting for right opportunity to strike a chord in Tollywood. Despite her repeated attempts, she is unable to catapult herself into top slot. Still, this hottie gets maximum ‘exposing’ and that is her ‘Power’.

As people are patronizing the movie, makers of ‘Power’ are promoting the flick in different ways to cash on craze. And each time hero Raviteja decides to come out to promote this KS Ravindra directorial, also there is presence of Regina. From Vinayakchavithi special TV interviews to recent success meets, and then the other day’s triple platinum disk function, Regina made a sparkle at Power promotions though Hansika is the main lead in the flick.

That way she got huge exposing, but the doubt is, if this publicity is working out in her favor and grabbing couple of opportunities or not. 

A cheating case has been registered on ace film director and choreographer Raghava Lawrence and his personal secretary Raj Kumar at Jubilee Hills Police Station  on Thursday. 

According to police, Bhagavan and Pullarao who produced Rebel starring Prabhas with Raghava Lawrence entered into agreement before the start of the film. As per the agreement Lawrence agreed to complete the film with in 23 crs budget and if not he will bear the additional expenses. 

Producers are now claiming that Lawrence as per agreement should return back the additional 5crs expenses they spent. However Lawrence refused to compensate even single penny. He stopped picking their calls. Producers irked by Lawrence’s behavior approached court and complained against him and also his secretary Rajkumar who mediated between them during the signing of the agreement. Court directed Police to register case against Lawrence and Rajkumar under sections 406,420 of IPC. Police did the same and are now searching for Lawrence. 

When madness of Maverick Director Ram Gopal Varma reaches its peak no one can reign him in. What ever he does, speaks or takes will be in media limelight even if it means controversy.

This time Ram Gopal Vara showcased his love for Tollywood Legend, greatest actor Viswa Vikhyata Nata Sarva Bhowma NTR. He said as far as his knowledge, NTR has many great qualities than Lord Krishna dn Lord Rama.

He went on to add that whenever he remembers any God, NTR comes into picture and reasoned out that it is probably due to the roles he did it. He said he respects and adores NTR not only as a actor but also as a political leaders. Though many earlier lavished praises on NTR saying they remember NTR whenever they think of Rama and Krishna, Ramu is the first one to say NTR is greater than Rama and Krishna.

But critics are blasting him questioning how could Ramu know the qualities of God, when he don’t believe in God. Wonder what answer Ramu gives to them?
