Victory Venkatesh’s stylish action entertainer ‘shadow’ has got its censor formalities completed on 18th April. The movie has received U/A certificate from the members of the board. Well, after having been announced numerous release dates, the movie is finally hitting the screens on 26th of this month.

Sizzling hot beauty Taapsi romances with Venkatesh in this movie. Srikanth and Madhurima are seen in important roles. Srikanth is doing the role of a tough cop. Thaman has scored the music of the film. Meher Ramesh has directed this movie. The movie has been produced by Paruchuri Kireeti on United Movies.It is a known news that Venkatesh is riding high with the success of the multi-starrer movie ‘Seethamma Vaakitlo Sirimalle Chettu’ early this year. Currently Venky is doing another mulit-starrer in the combo of hero Ram. This is going to be a remake of bollywood super hit film ‘Bol Bachchan’.

King Nagarjuna’s ‘greeku veerudu’ which was earlier planned to release on 26th April, is now postponed to 3rd May. Like Venkatesh’s ‘Shadow’, the makers of ‘greeku veerudu’ announced many release dates of ‘GV’. Since ‘Shadow’ is all set for a grand release on 26th, the makers of ‘GV’ had to postpone the movie as they understood they can’t get sufficient number of theaters for the release of the movie.

Sensuous beauty Nayantara has romanced with Nagarjuna in this romantic and family entertainer. Thaman’s music was a mixture of melody and fast beat. Dasarath has directed the movie. D.Siva Prasad Reddy has made the movie on Kamakshi Movies.

Anushka who increased her speed after Damarukama and Mirchi, is currently starring in Brindavanamlo Nandakumarudu, Singam II, Rudramadevi and Bahubali. Responding to the rumors about her affairs with villain turned hero Arya and earlier with Nagarjuna, she said she care a damn for such rumors.

She says if one gives importance to all such trash, one can not come up in life. Even Arya rubbished the affairs rumors earlier in media. Arya and Anushka are starring in Selvaraghavan film and from then on Kollywood media is abuzz with the news. Both stated that they are close friends and they  can not forego their friendship for the fear of gossips.

The additional 4 weeks extension for Sanjay Dutt may be a relief for the makers of Sanjay Dutt movies which are currently on sets but the movies yet to begin have got no respite. And one such movie is the third edition of Munnabhai series. The makers of the hit franchise ‘Munnabhai’ – Raj Kumar Hirani and Vidhu Vinod Chopra – say that they will wait for actor Sanjay Dutt to make the third movie in the series.

“The reel Munnabhai will wait for the real Munnabhai. He will indeed walk on the sets of the next Munnabhai as he comes back to us free,” Hirani and Chopra said in a statement. At the same time, Hirani and Chopra have once again requested the Government some leniency towards the actor as he is a reformed man now.

The release period of Nagarjuna’s Damarukam was a nightmare for Akkineni fans then. The movie release was hampered by severe financial tangles and got postponed last minute even after issuing advance bookings. A similar situation is prevailing for Autonagar Surya from the same makers. The movie shooting was complete except for a song. This was the update several months ago and there is no progress since then.Fans can only hope this time the makers will ensure a hazzle free release.

We are told that Nagarjuna had decided to save Naga Chaitanya from disgrace. He is now in talks with RR Movie Makers to take over Autonagar Suriya. This process is not easy as said as several financiers and crores of rupees are involved. Next few days should give us an idea where this issue progresses!

An industry fact is that, more than actual production to be invested on a film…lion-share of producer’s money will be evaporated in the form of remunerations to heroes. When the case is with heroes like pawan kalyan, Mahesh Babu, Junior NTR and Ramcharn; story will be altogether different. Without throwing producers into such high risk situations, how will be the scenario if star heroes themselves turn as investors?

This is the new formula pawan kalyan is initiating in Tollywood. Our close sources to ‘Gabbar Singh 2’ are stating about Pawan himself getting involved into budgetary issues of project. With no major remuneration negotiations and having complete knowledge on self market span, ‘GS 2’ will be a trendsetting film on pawan kalyan Creative Works banner. Sampat Nandi will also be a relaxed director because Rs.50 to 60 Crores of profit can be safely assured if Pawan leads the team from front as a businessman. Wait and see; how this idea works.

Multi-talented Tamil Superstar Simbu, will be doing a cameo role in Allari Naresh’s upcoming movie ‘Action 3D’. The Tamil superstar has dubbed all his films in Telugu but never made a straight Telugu movie. This will be Simbu’s second screen appearance in a straight Telugu movie after ‘Yem Maaya Chesave’. It is known to our readers that he recently rendered songs in Back Bench Student and Baadshah.

One of the producers of ‘Dookudu’, Anil Sunkara is making his directorial debut with ‘Action 3D’. Also ace choreographer Raju Sundaram is doing a full-fledged role in this film after a huge gap. ‘Godava’ fame Vaibhav, Kamna Jethmalani, Sneha Ullal and Neelam Upadhyaya will be seen in other lead roles. This film is assumed to be the first ‘3D’ comedy film in Tollywood.

Actor Siddharth who celebrated his 34th Birthday had signed one more movie on this eve. He will be acting in a bilingual directed Karthik Subba Raju. The young director earlier this year created ripples in Kollywood with his maiden movie, Pizza. Karthik has narrated a new story to Siddu and he was impressed and gave an immediate nod to the project. Rumors are waving that this film will be a sequel to ‘Pizza’. This movie will be made at the same time in both Tamil and Telugu.

Siddhu has tweeted about this new venture. “‘Good announcement on my birthday. I am happy to be the lead in Karthik Subbaraj’s second film after his kick ass debut ‘Pizza’. Cheers,’ Siddu tweeted. His latest flick ‘NH4’ is striking theatres tomorrow. Let’s wish both films ‘deliver’ success at box office.

Remember Shankar, the second son of popular lyricist Siri Vennela Sita Rama Sastry! He is the one who starred in Teja’s directorial, Keka. The movie went on to become a big dud and Shankar disappeared from films. And we hear that the youngster will be doing a cameo role in Ram Charan’s ‘Yevadu’. Shankar reportedly heard the story of ‘Yevadu’ from Vakkantham Vamsi and he, himself approached producer ‘Dil’ Raju and Vamsi Paidipalli to do a little role which appealed to him.

Meanwhile Shankar has signed a new project. This film will be a bilingual. Tamil director Raghava is handling the megaphone. The Telugu version is tentatively titled as ‘Telugulo Naku Nachchani Padam Prema’.

“Zindagi Na Milegi” co-stars Hrithik Roshan and Katrina Kaif are gearing up to shoot action entertainer “Bang Bang”, which will go on the floors next month.
