It is reliably learnt that top producer Bellamkonda Suresh is pushing the market of jr NTR with ‘Rabhasa’ as he is quoting 11 crores of Nizam area, despite knowing that NTR movies haven’t done really well in this region, claims a distributor.

Nizam is considered the fort of Chiranjeevi family-Pawan, Charan but Mahesh superseded them in the region which comprises of borders with Karnataka and Maharashtra. Even though, NTR holds many records in Seemandhra and Ceded but just managed to touch 9 crore mark with Baadshah and his earlier hits like ‘Yamadonga’ and ‘Adhurs’ managed between 5 to 6 crores.

So, Suresh looks too ambitious by quoting a ‘fancy price’ by distributors of this 10- district region. If the deal goes through, NTR would be setting a new record in Nizam busines and join the ranks A-listers in this region. Lets wait and watch?

We all know that Charan and Sharwanand are good friends and the Nayak star is going to host a party for his buddy who discovered winning streak with “Run Raja Run”. Their friendship stood test of time and even though professionally, Charan rose to superstardom with hits, but sharwa managed to be a good actor and tasted moderate success with “Gamyam” and “Prasthanam”.

Nevertheless, the bonding between the two actor strengthened in the last 7 to 8 years and actually, it is 6- member close-knit group that includes Charan and Sharwa and occasionally meet up at Charan’s terrace garden over food and lot of masti, says a source.

With Charan get some spare time, he would host a small party for his friend, to celebrate the success and all the friends would set to meet up and have a blast? Since its difficult for two stars to sustain their friendship and its even more difficult if their career graphs are running in opposite directions?

Stylish Star Allu Arjun’s tryst with patriotism has worked big time, with his short-film ‘I AM THAT CHANGE’ delivering the right message on right day. His intention of advising youth to not commit mistakes even in the case of minutest things has struck a chord. Advising them to not take liberties and violate basic rules by suppressing ethics, Allu Arjun says ‘Be That Change’.

The short film focused mainly on day to day acts of various persons who break rules and change them as per their conveniences. A rich brat jumps signal and offers money to traffic police. A school girl who hasn’t studied well picks her friend’s answer sheet to copy. A young boy walking by his father’s side drops an emptied soft-drink tin on a road. A celebrity, Allu Arjun, avoids the security checkup and passes from the side of bomb detector rather going through it. So, what should all these people do??? Watch the film to get the message straight to your heart.

‘Doing our duty rightly is also patriotism. Change should begin with us. I’m that change. Be that change’, says the message. Good job Bunny. Hope all youths out there get the message and ‘change’ themselves to see change in this nation of great culture, values, people and integrity. Vandemataram.

Alludu Seenu fame Bellamkonda Srinivas is gearing up for his second movie that will be launched on 27th of this month. Boyapati Srinu is directing this mass entertainer that is going to be made on a high budget. Bellamkonda Suresh is ready to spend big bucks on this film despite losing few crores on Alludu Seenu due to high budget.

Bellamkonda Suresh roped in Number 1 heroine Samantha for Alludu Seenu and he is eyeing another top heroine Shruti Haasan for Srinivas’s second movie. Shruti Haasan didn’t sign this film yet. She is asking for 2 crores as remuneration which is almost double to what she gets for other movies.

Shruti Haasan is only doing films with big stars at the moment. She is not ready to do a film with relatively newcomer without putting a heavy price tag on. Bellamkonda Suresh is also contemplating other names, but going by his approach in setting a strong foundation for his son’s career, Shruti can expect to get what she was asking for.

Still if there are some doubts lingering in minds about possible strength of Megastar Chiranjeevi’s box office stamina, then the mega proof is here. His return to silver screen might create new records and shatter many existing ones. Catch up with small-screen to know about Chiru’s potency in drawing crowds.

Despite some brickbats about his plunging image due to political failure, Megastar proved that he could magic if he reappears on silver screen. For Nagarjuna’s quiz show ‘Meelo Evaru Koteeswarudu’, Chiru has helped garner a record TRP of 12.34 when the average TRP for that show is 9.33 on an average earlier. If Nag’s 9.33 TRP itself is a record already, Chiru’s entry on final episode has brought an industry record like TRPs. This showcases how Chiru managed audiences to glue to TV sets with his robust presence on small screen.

Pawan Kalyan’s Gopala Gopala started making some news finally. All these days shooting and other work of the film are going on silently under the carpet. Neither Pawan nor Venky have spoke about the movie except revealing that they will make a nice flick to watch.

Lahari Music, the music selling company that is buying rights of many big-ticket flicks these days has grabbed Pawan and Venky’s multi-starrer too. Sources revealed that Lahari has shed a bomb to buy audio rights of Gopala Gopala. Music of this thought provoking flick is scored by talented Anup Rubens, whose fame has shot up twice post the success of Manam. Pawan factor, multi-star presence, Anup’s music and original version’s craze has let the audio company shed something close to a crore for the audio rights, say trade experts.

Earlier, 1-Nenokkadine was brought by Lahari Music for a whopping 72 lakhs after which they have grabbed Race Gurram too for 55 lakhs. Also Balakrishna’s Legend audio was released by the same company. Expect about Gopala Gopala audio date soon then!

Jyothika, wife of Tamil star Suriya, who is on a long hiatus, is all set to kick start her second innings. Jyothika will be playing the titular role in upcoming Tamil film which in turn is a remake of Malayalam blockbuster ‘How Old Are You’. Billed to be a lady-oriented movie, the original has actress Manju playing the lead and Jyothika is going to reprise in the Tamil version.

Roshan Andrews, who directed original film, is going to wield the megaphone for Tamil remake as well. The yet-to-be-titled film will go onto floors shortly. Jyothika who has been missing in action for seven-long years is returning to action. This is certainly a good news for all the fans of Chandramukhi star.

If the latest reports are anything to go by, Super Star Mahesh Babu is the highest paid actor in Telugu film industry. Mahesh is apparently charging a bomb for his up next film, to be produced by V. Anand Prasad of Bhavya Creations, which makes Mahesh the numer uno star with highest remuneration. Buzz is that Mahesh is getting a fat pay cheque of Rs 18 Crore for this untitled film.

Sources in the know say that already producer Anand Prasad has paid Rs 8 Crore in advance to the star to book his dates. The movie will go onto floors only after Mahesh wraps up his next commitment, directed by Koratala Siva. We hear that a star director is going to do this project and his name is presently kept under wraps.

Till far, Mahesh used to charge Rs 14 Crore on par with his peer Pawan Kalyan. Recently, Pawan too hiked his pay after Attarintiki Daaredi and allegedly charging Rs 15 Crore for just 22 days for his upcoming film Gopala Gopala. Looks like Mahesh Babu and Pawan Kalyan are racing ahead towards remunerations of B-town stars.

India’s premiere investigation agency, the Central Bureau of Investigation, has finally stepped into investigating popular actress Jiah Khan’s suicide case. With a Mumbai special court ordering CBI to step into the case, the investigation agency started its work, for which even Jiah’s mother is demanding from a time.

Actress Jiah Khan, 25 year old, is popular for her hot role in RGV-Amitabh’s Nishabd, and also her short stint in Housefull movie. She was found hanging to death at her residence in Mumbai on June 3 and a special investigation team concluded the case as a self-killing. As Jiah was in a strained love-affair with aspiring actor Suraj Pancholi, as revealed by the suicide note found at scene of death, Mumbai police also registered a case of abetting suicide on Suraj.

But the private forensic investigations that were done at the behest of Jiah’s mother indicated this is a possible homicide. Finding the private investigation report and SIT report contradicting each other, Mumbai Court has ordered CBI to take the mantle, confirms a CBI spokesperson.
