Dasari alleges Mafia impact on Uday Kiran

Share

Why was Telugu star Uday KIran starved of offers as he was a direct threat to many young heroes ?

YES, says well known director and producer Dasari Narayana Rao adding that Uday Kran had been dubbed as the ‘Shoban Babu of last decade’ and as such his presence was a major threat to the family cult actors of all the prominent families in the Telugu industry. ‘When Uday Kiran shifted to Tamil films, these families spread venom against him and ensured that some of latest offers were dropped’ he said.

‘The film industry mafia of these families controlled producers, distributors, financiers directors, junior actors unions and also suppliers. So if any one opted for such outside heros and heroines, they will be denied  dates in studios, technicians and also theaters’ he says. They will be harassed to such an extent that they will come to compromise and do their bidding.

Dasari visited the film chamber premises in Filmnagar and paid rich tributes to Uday Kiran body kept there for public darshan of his fans and admirers. Large number of young actors  and his friends also visited the venue and paid their tributes.

Vuyyala Jampala not a big hit?

Share

Contrary to the figures quoted by theatres owners and distribturos, small film ‘Vuyyala Jampala’ is average grosser and not a superhit. Even producers Suresh Babu and Ram Mohan initially thought it would make n 10 cores, going by the initial buzz, but actually it is totterrig at the box office with poor turnout and could just manage 3.5 to 4 crores, including Rs. 1 crore collection on January 1st alone, in three weeks, otherwise, it would have been much lesser.

So, its not a blockbuster like ‘Nuvve Kavali’ (which was a record breaking hit by drawing 20 crores) and also with no competition from other films, the rural-based entertainer, just survived at the theatres. So don’t get carried away, with false figures.

Mahesh Babu needs Rs. 60 crore!

Share

Super star Mahesh Babu’s latest release 1 Nenokkadine is just a couple of days away from hitting the marquee. The advance bookings of the film are in full swing as expected. Buyers are expecting this film to clock over Rs. 10 crore share on the first day itself. This film is riding on high expectations and Mahesh followers believe that it can break industry records too.

Keeping the expectations and hype aside, let us see how much does 1 Nenokkadine has to collect to be termed as a ‘hit’. The film will have to collect a distributor share of Rs. 58 crore to break even as per trade sources. So if the movie collects around Rs. 60 crore at the box office everyone can see minimal profits from it.

If 1 Nenokkadine manages to break even, then it will become the biggest earner in the career of Mahesh Babu, by surpassing Dookudu, which has collected a share of Rs. 56 crores. Dookudu got blockbuster talk on day one and it is a complete family entertainer. Whereas 1 Nenokkadine seems to be an entirely different genre film and we have to see how our audience reacts to it. And Dookudu didn’t have any competition for two weeks. But 1 Nenokkadine will have to sustain the competition from Yevadu. However releasing for Pongal gives enough space and scope for both the films.

Story of Mahesh Babu’s film is Leaked

Share

Much closer to the release and a source who watched Mahesh Babu’s much-hyped ‘1 Nenokadine’, reveals that T-town star is reprising the most ‘complex’ role of Hollywood star Harrison Ford, since director Sukumar has rehashed Hollywood blockbuster ‘Frantic’, a 1988 released American-French mystery thriller, directed by Roman Polanski and not a rip-off of ‘Bourne Identity’ as reportedly earlier.

Briefly, Mahesh visits London for a conference and loses his lover Kirti from the hotel room and rest is all about how he tracks her down and finds a big conspiracy behind it. Unable to find her after meeting a cab driver, hotel and other spots, he even begins to believe that lover was just an imagination and loses his balance of mind, but with small clue, he recovers his past. (Like in the original, as Dr. Richard Walker (Harrison Ford),a  surgeon who visits Paris with his wife Sondra for a medical conference and while walker is taking a shower, his wife mysteriously disappears from their hotel room).

So Mahesh is actually stepping into the big shoes of legendary actor Harrison Ford in a very challenging and gripping role and source claims that Mahesh has done a fabulous job as a desperate lover and could down as one of the best roles of his career after ‘Okkadu’, ‘Athadu’.

Film industry is a place where orthodox sentiments take front seat. One strong speculation or call it a random find-out from analysts shivering the industry people is about the shocking dates of deaths of last four film celebrities. A random look at tollywood death list shows that there is a certain pattern followed. The death game has begun with Real Star Sreehari who was dead on October 9th followed by the demise of comedian AVS on November 8th, then the turn was of Dharmavarapu Subrahmanyam on December 7th. Lastly, it is Uday Kiran on January 6th. Still hard to find an analogy, then see this:

October 9, November 8, December 7, January 6…then who is it going to take on death bed for February 5. Though this is simple arithmetic progression kind of sequence which is just coincidental, creative brains in film industry are giving a shivering interpolation which cannot be right.

Apartment Owners reject Uday’s body!!

Share

In a day of twists, it looks like a final twist is completely blocking the minds of everyone. Though Uday Kiran’s dead body was supposed to be kept at his residence in Srinagar Colony, all the apartment owners have rightly rejected the idea of bringing the body there. They stated that if Uday’s body is brought to apartment, lot of fans and well wishers will turn up there creating huge insecurity to all the flat owners. The sad tale of Uday Kiran’s suicide is not giving satisfaction to anybody it seems. It is really unfortunate that the actor’s body could not be kept at the place where he lived for the last two years.

With flat owners of Jyothi Homes, Srinagar Colony rejecting to bring Uday’s body home, it will be now kept at NIMS Mortuary itself and will be taken to Film Chamber tomorrow at 9 am. Afterwards final rites will be performed at Erragadda (ESI) burial ground.

So the makers contemplating to pull it off from the word go.

Kiran to break Congress in Indira Gandhi’s style!

Share

In a new development to the T-resolution issue, sources say that chief minister Kiran Reddy will most likely seek a four to six week extension for the Andhra Pradesh assembly for considering the AP Reorganization Bill which has been sent to the assembly for consideration.

Sources say that this may be sent to President after Sankranti quoting an example of Uttar Pradesh, where the then chief minister had sought extra time which was granted. Sources say that if Mukherjee grants the extension, Kiran will wait till the proposal is considered by the assembly failing which he will quit the Congress party and join the front launched by Lagadapati Rajagopal. After the assembly session, Kiran has already stated that he will also convene a two-day meeting of Congress legislators from Seemandhra to deliberate the future course of action.
This is seen as an appeal to the legislators to act according to their ‘conscience’ and join the new party just like Indira Gandhi who had broken the Congress party in November 1969 to eliminate the syndicate of old leaders who were in charge. When this syndicate had put up Neelam Sanjeeva Reddy as the official Congress candidate for the Presidential polls, Indira silently encouraged her nominee V V Giri to file papers as an independent. Then she appealed to the Congress MPs and MLAs to vote as per their ‘conscience.’ This broke Congress and the breakaway group led by Indira got power!

JD Lakshmi Narayana with Pawan Kalyan?

Share

Sources say that stunning electoral success of the Aam Aadmi Party in Delhi is motivating many bigwigs in the state right from politicians to entrepreneurs and bureaucrats who are all set to launch political parties.

Apart from TDP leader and entrepreneur Palem Srikanth Reddy who is reportedly planning to launch his own party, sources say Maharashtra cadre IPS officer and former state CBI director J D Lakshminarayana is planning to launch a new party or join AAP! This also reportedly includes Lok Satta president Jayaprakash Narayan, who is trying to make his party act the AP unit of Arvind Kejriwal’s AAP.
In the case of Lakshminarayana, the top cop who handled several high profile cases while in AP such as Satyam scam, Jagan assets, Emaar and illegal mining, the Maharashtra government seems to have instigated him to float a political party by not giving him a posting ever since he completed his CBI deputation in AP in June last year. Lakshminarayana is associating himself with an NGO for last few months and addressed the youth in colleges, schools and clubs across the state including Vijayawada, Kakinada and Amalapuram and sources say he has already met Kejriwal and actor Pawan Kalyan.

Potluri Prasad’s shocker to Jagan!

Share

Is the tide turning slowly against YSRCP Chief Jagan Mohan Reddy? This may be too early to predict but after the party’s candidate for Machilipatnam Lok Sabha passed away recently throwing the selection into confusion, now sources say it is the turn of Vijayawada! Sources say that YSRCP’s bigwig Potluri Vara Prasad has given a shocker to Jagan by refusing to contest as the party candidate. Vijayawada is crucial in AP politics and any party which wins here is expected to rule the state.

Even opposition Congress and TDP were worried about the tremendous muscle power of this candidate especially his strong financial background and sources say Jagan’s refusal to entertain atleast one Kamma candidate among the seven assembly constituencies which falls under Vijayawada Lok Sabha is the reason. PVP is reportedly upset that after he said he doesn’t want to contest, Jagan didn’t even get back to him and he perceived this as an insult and sent a message to his followers not to expect him to contest from YSRCP!

Comedian Dhanraj arrested in a sex scandal ?

Share

What is wrong with these small time actors? If not acting assignments they are seen indulging in illegal activities mostly? Not a month ago small time actress Shweta Basu Prasad was caught red handed in a sex scandal and today it happens to be the upcoming comedy artist Dhanraj.

Dhanraj who became famous from the comedy show Jabardast on ETV was today arrested red-handed for indulging in illicit sexual acts today at a massage center in Banjara Hills.
Massage centers have always been under police scanner because of the innumerable sex acts caught in the guise of masseurs and clients. Similarly today when police came to raid a massage center on a tip off they found Dhanraj along with many others indulging in illegal sexual acts. Dhanraj immediately denied of any mis-indulgence and reasoned out that he was there for a nail cut (wow, people go to massage parlors for nail cut?).
He was arrested and taken into police custody immediately and retained by police until legal proceedings commence.
