NTR Breaks Into Tears, Charan Depressed

Share

The scene at actor Srihari’s house where his dead body was kept for visitors to pay last homage to their favourite actor seems to be quite melancholy. With each and every actor wiping tears for the sudden demise of this sensational actor, even media people are found with tear filled eyes.

It is young hero Jr NTR who turned quite emotional and broke down on the freezer box in which Srihari’s body was kept. Though NTR tried to control his emotions, it became impossible for him and he wept inconsolably, before joined by Srihari’s wife Shanti. With tears rolling down from NTR’s eyes, it is understood how each star who worked with the actor connects to him and bonds him with. Another star hero Ram Charan too looked quite depressed with that pale look for the sudden loss of his best family friend. After garlanding Srihari’s photo, Charan turned quite depressed and is unable to utter a couple of words with media for a while. These two young star heroes felt that the loss they got is irreparable and irreplaceable.

At evening 3.30 pm, Srihari’s body started for final ride from his bungalow in road no 45 and is expected to be buried at his farm house in Bachupalli after final rites are paid.

NTR’s Heroine takes back her Complaint

Share

Actress Nazriya Nazim (NTR’s Rabasa fame) who filed a case against her upcoming film ‘Naiyaandi’ director Sarkunam has withdrawn her complaint as the makers have agreed to remove the objectional footage in the trailer and a song.

“I have withdrawn my complaint against Naiyaandi director. All my concerns about the possibility of body double scenes being present in the movie have been addressed. The body double scenes from the trailer also have been already removed,” she commented.

Responding on the reports that the entire controversy is a publicity stunt, Nazriya stated a Dhanush movie doesn’t need any cooked up drama for publicity. “I should be a fool to promote myself at the expense of a movie which is a result of the blood and sweat of hundreds of technicians and artists,” clarifies the actress.

Claiming Naiyaandi is an excellent family entertainer, Nazriya appeals to the film buffs to join her in supporting this movie.

Chiru’s serious decision on 150th film?

Share

When Chiranjeevi quit the Tollywood industry as an actor and took a jump into politics, many of his fans were disappointed because they were longing to see him do his 150th film. But life took different routes and finally the megastar ended up becoming a union minister in a party that is facing the wrath of the entire nation.

But now it looks like things are bound to change. According to reports, Chiranjeevi who has seen nothing but jolts and blows and more after the current political situation in the state, has begun seriously thinking of returning to films. Already, few scripts are ready for his perusal and so are the directors.

There are reports that Ram Charan has done a good bit of groundwork for his father. The way things are proceeding, it looks like Chiranjeevi might just wait till the 2014 elections get over and immediately get to acting. That would be the happiest moment ever in the lives of all the mega fans who are currently going through some tough times.

However Power Star is not that easily convincable as he will not do anything for name,fame or money. Now it has to be seen how Bollywood filmmakers get green signal from Pawan. Pawan is currently busy with projects like Gabbar Singh 2, Kobali.

Sonia turns gentleman into buffoon!

Share

Pallam Raju, the Kakinada MP is one politician who has been having a very clean record both in terms of his position as a minister and also for his respectful personality and public behavior. For the last nine years, he served as MoS for Defense and is now the Union HRD minister.

His problems started after Telangana announcement by Congress high command and sources say that Raju took a principled stand by believing in Antony Committee and when they were fooled by leadership by passing Cabinet note, he met PM and offered his resignation.

Sources say he was then very much convinced by Sonia on a condition that he will be made a part of the Group of Ministers that will decide AP’s bifurcation bill. Suddenly, yesterday a list was announced with 7 ministers and there was no mention of Pallam Raju in the list. Many say Sonia seems to have cleverly made him a buffoon. We have to see how Pallam is going to react to this.

Ram Charan-Rana’s political games?

Share

No matter how much different they are, the field of politics and cinema are bonded by one way or another. In Tollywood, it is definite that some of the top level star families have strong connections with political circles. But one news which has become a hot discussion right now has come as a surprise to many.

This is the act of Ram Charan and Daggubati Rana. It is known that both are very good buddies and tend to do a lot of things. But now it is heard that both Cherry and Rana have decided to do something political. They have reportedly invited KTR, son of the TRS president KCR, for a dinner and some evening chat.

Some are saying this is because KTR is the emerging leader for Telangana and his future looks bright so both Charan and Rana are doing their best to build bridges right away. But some are criticizing this move because Cherry’s father Chiranjeevi is doing his best to salvage his image as a Samaikyandhra person so this is kind of opposing that initiative. We have to see how this political game will work.

Share

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Kiran Kumar Reddy till recently was branded as rubber stamp CM thrust upon people by Sonia Gandhi and Congress High Command. However of late he has been showing so much dissent against all powerful Sonia Gandhi, defying the party and Govt decision to divide Andhra Pradesh and form Telangana.

While some in seemandhra are hailing him as hero, those in Telangana are blasting him for taking sides and not obeying the orders of Sonia Gandhi. Some intelligent few and analysts are saying Kiran is taking such aggressive posture only with the blessings of Sonia Gandhi. They suspect entire drama in Andhra Pradesh is scripted by Sonia Gandhi.However Telangana representatives like Vivek is demanding Sonia Gandhi and congress high command to sack CM Kiran and immediately arrest and send him packing to jail. Now it has to be seen whether Sonia will take that extreme step and send Kiran to jail just like she did to Jagan.

Hot beauty insulting Pawan?

Ever since anchor Anasuya became a household name after that adult-comedy show ‘Jabardasth’, she is one of those sought after names that are expected to hit silver screen too. But Anasuya is heard rejecting couple of offers and now she responded why she rejected them.

Anasuya posted on her twitter page that honestly she is glad for not being part of the song offered to her in Attarintiki Daredi. ‘Aa gumpulo nenu unna lekunna okate’, she pointed out. Also she commented on the film, ‘Pawan Kalyan was good in climax scene and a couple of songs are good’. Anasuya felt that everyone blasted her at that times for not accepting Pawan’s offer and so her tweets now. Also she said everyone commented on her for not doing AD song that she lost a chance of life time and missed a path to salvation.However, Anasuya no doubt could support her rejecting of AD, and her feeling that she will not get attention in such songs, but her calling of film as an average fare is not going well with fans. They took it seriously and started blasting her with some serious stuff, albeit in unparliamentarily language.

‘Anasuya is not a big name, a big actor or a big talented show-host. She became popular only with skimpy outfits and skin shows. What more does she deserves than an item-song’, a fan reportedly posted to the anchor. This is just one and there are thousands of such retorts by fans from last night.

Reacting on all those responses, Anasuya stated that Pawan Kalyan’s fans are not having a thought process like Pawan and that is why blasting her like this.

‘Ento confused souls..!!fans antaru admirers antaru..malli hurt chestu maatladtaru..ento pichi.. Enduku aa matti burralaki ardham kado..maaku feelings untai..memu navvutam edustam.. ‘, wrote Anasuya on her twitter page.

Mahesh Babu missed out on a Golden chance

Share

Superstar Mahesh Babu, who delivered a hat-trick of hits, is currently busy with Sukumar’s high budget action flick 1- Nenokkadine. This film was supposed to release for this Dussera, but the delay in shoot pushed it to Pongal. Mahesh Babu missed out on a great opportunity to prove his dominance at box office by missing out on Dusseara release. In the absence of Mahesh, only Pawan Kalyan and NTR are competing at the box office in this festive season.

Both NTR and Mahesh made their debuts almost at the same time and Pawan made his debut a couple of years ahead of them. Therefore these three are considered as the contemporaries and all of them have tremendous following among the masses and youth. These three are serious contenders for the numero uno place besides Prabhas and Ram Charan. Media is keen to announce the new number one of Tollywood, and if 1 was in the race for Dussera, then we could have got a clear idea about the current number one hero.

Pawan Kalyan already proved his mettle with Attarintiki Daredi, which is on course to enter the sixty crore club. Now NTR is gearing up as Ramayya to prove his stamina at the box office. It would have been a great competition if Mahesh’s 1 is also in contention. Although Mahesh misses out now, he can prove his star power with 1 by surpassing whatever is posted by Attarintiki and Ramayya.

Lagadapati approaches Delhi High Court?

Share

It is a known fact that the resignation drama by five to seven Seemandhra MP’s has been going on for a while. This also involves the appointment which was given and cancelled by Lok Sabha speaker Meira Kumar. Among this whole lot, it is now coming out that it is only Lagadapati Rajagopal who seems to be sincere about his resignation.

There are reports coming in the media that the Vijayawada MP has reportedly approached the Delhi High Court today seeking the acceptance of his resignation as an MP. In the recent past, Lagadapati has been facing flak in his constituency Vijayawada as many feel he has been doing a drama over his resignation.

If the reports are indeed true, then there is no doubt that the agitators would give him a heroic welcome back in the Seemandhra region because whole hearted resignations are being sought there by everyone and not only resignation ‘drama’s! But it has to be seen if his resignation would be accepted or not.

Is Pawan an eununch?

Share

Millions of fans hail Pawan Kalyan as Power Star and many try to dissect what Pawanism and Pawan mania is all about and guage its intensity. However there is a feeling that many filmmakers are turning Power Star Pawan Kalyan into an eununch.

In Attarintiki Daaredi, Pawan Kalyan was shown in many scenes behaving like a girl tying a cloth round his pant just like eununch/kojja does. This is hurting the sentiments of many fans.

Filmmakers may say it is all in the game and since viewers are liking and appreciating Pawan’s performances in such scenes they are including it. Some fans are of the opinion that Pawan should stay away from such scenes and do scenes which elevate his heroism.

Mulayam…Mayawati…next Jagan?

Share

After giving a clean chit to the former UP Chief Minister Mulayam Singh Yadav last month by CBI, now it seems that the Congress party has won the trust of one more ally, this time CBI has reportedly closed all the cases against her!

It is known in India that CBI is a tool which is used by politicians in ruling party to get powerful people to toe their line. This time it looks as if the turn of Mayawati of BSP had come and now Congress has two allies it can bank in the future, SP and BSP.

Though there were widespread allegations against Jagan Mohan Reddy’s corruption, till there was YSR nothing moved against him. When he revolted against Sonia, CBI was used and now with some kind of reproachment in the offing he was left off on bail. So will CBI treat Jagan the same way by closing case in case he becomes crucial for supporting UPA-3? Let’s see!

Numerology sentiment pushed ‘Ramayya Vastavayya’?

Share

The stage is set for the film ‘Ramayya Vastavayya’ starring Junior NTR and Samantha to arrive in theatres. The release date was scheduled as October 10th but now the film will be releasing on October 11th. While the reasons are not known, some are saying it is due to a numerology sentiment.

‘Ramayya Vastavayya’ is directed by Harish Shankar and it is produced by Dil Raju. Harish Shankar scored the biggest hit of his career in the form of ‘Gabbar Singh’ and it also released on a 11th. For Dil Raju, the film ‘Seetamma Vaakitlo Sirimalle Chettu’ gave a big hit and it got released on a 11th.

So, the number 11 sentiment seems to have worked for both Harish and Dil Raju. As a result, they are pushing ‘Ramayya Vastavayya’ for a release on 11th. Whether this is true or not, as long as the film has a trouble free release and it becomes a hit nothing else matters. Let us see what happens.

Can NTR pull it off without him?

Share

NTR Jr. has tremendous craze among the masses and he is a fantastic crowd puller when it comes to domestic circuit. His movies gets stunning openings in Ceded, Guntur and some other Andhra regions. He has proven time and again that he is a king of openings in our state. However, he is lagging behind Mahesh Babu and Pawan Kalyan in areas like Nizam and overseas. If NTR gets hold in these areas he could be a serious competitor for number one position.

NTR’s previous film Baadshah did reasonably well in NTR’s weakest areas like overseas and Nizam. Thanks to Srinu Vytla’s brand of humor and his horde of comedians, which made it possible for NTR. In Ramayya Vastavayya, NTR is not relying upon any comedy tracks or star comedians to impress the comedy lovers. Ramayya Vastavayya has no Brahmanandam to attract overseas crowds. This will be a big test for NTR in this region as Harish Shankar doesn’t have any special image or identity here.

Harish is known for mass entertainers and is yet to get a brand image like Trivikram or Srinu Vylta in overseas region. Therefore it is all up to NTR to pull this film off in overseas and Nizam areas, which prove to be crucial for a film to become a blockbuster from normal hit zone. Latest example being Attarintiki Daredi, which collected more than 25 crores share from these areas in just ten days.

Rajamouli Finishes In Record Time

Share

Ace director Rajamouli is known as master of perfection and quality. But the other side of this is that he can’t finish things on time. In Hollywood, when quality meets perfections, delays happen very rare, but here in our film industry they happen always. However Rajamouli has created a record now.

Generally Rajamouli makes sure that he gets more than enough time to finish particular scene and sequence. Even this time, he planned a mere five days to wrap up particular sentimental scene of his upcoming ‘Baahubali’. Actually the scene features all the lead cast including hunk heroes Prabhas, Rana and beautiful lady Anushka. Though Rajamouli thought of finishing it in five days, he wrapped it just in 3 days. Even the director exclaimed for this happening and is all on excitement for finishing his shoot way ahead of the schedule. Many times earlier Rajamouli wished that he should work under Puri Jagan to make movies in record number of days.

Anyway, insiders say that meticulous planning and well made pre-production is helping Baahubali shoot to be finished way before its time.
