Just two days before the gigantic release of ‘baadshah’ is planned, media is circulated with plenty of rumors on too many creative differences cropped between director Srinu Vytla, writer Kona Venkat and hero Junior NTR during the making and even now in the release times. Eversince ‘Dookudu’ made it into top of the Tollywood blockbusters list, Srinu has become stubborn without giving the same respect and importance to his writers Kona Venkat and Gopimohan. Even there were reports of Srinu taking a dig at NTR during a late night ‘Dookudu’ success party where in Nani was also insulted. However, keeping aside all these rumors entire team worked for a super hit ‘baadshah’ but finally before these penultimate hours of release, the old differences are re-awakened.

Inner reports say that, Srinu very well knows on Kona and Gopimohan are no more to work with him due to their venturing into direction department with in this year or early next. Despite repeated requests, the writers duo have not found even one good reason to remain in Srinu’s team. An upset Srinu might have asserted to personal revenge on these two…first by deliberately missing the name of Kona in title cards of posters and then Kona wantedly missed the Hexa-Platinum disc fucntion.

Some time ago, it was learnt that Young Tiger Jr.NTR’s ‘baadshah’s satellite rights were sold out to a third party for a whopping price of Rs.7.5 crores.

TV News channels and their prime time slots have become highly competitive. When political parties and chief politicians in the state are using these TV channels to target their rivals, obviously such programs will grab the attention of entire state and slots are also charged so costly. One such program telecasted few weeks ago was about Junior NTR as ‘Pilla Kaaki’ and the kind of contorversy stirred by the epsiode was well witnessed in media circles.

Now, one more similar natured program aired freshly has shown nagarjuna in complete negative focus. While the names of top Congress politicians are heard to be the actual men behind defaming nagarjuna in market, till now the actor has remained silent without throwing any strange reactions. Well, close relations between nagarjuna and YSR family members is quoted as a reason for such program but some other sources say there are few acceptable facts discussed in the episode. Finally, the nexus between politics and cinema industry is evident one more time.

Numerous controversies created by kamal hasan’s ‘Vishwaroopam’ is pretty well known. Thanks to the Hollywood standards maintained in content and making, so we had this film doing superbly at BO even after a high budget of Rs.100+ Crores invested by Kamal. As we know about Lokanayakudu’s plan on releasing the sequel, finally we hear on August 15th as the most possible date we are likely to see ‘Vishwaroopam 2.’

With Afghanistan backdrop and story dealing on Global Terrorism, it’s ill effects on mankind, kamal hasan was a winner all over the world. As major protions of sequel are already shot during the making of first part, post-production works with CG effects are now in the process. Let us see, what kind of valuable message Kamal will offer us with this Part 2.

 

Southern filmstar and union Minister for Tourism K. Chiranjeevi Wednesday said that actor Sanjay Dutt, convicted under the Arms Act for his role in the 1993 Mumbai blasts, should be given mercy as he has “suffered a lot”.

“He has suffered a lot. If he gets mercy, then nothing like it,” Chiranjeevi told reporters here on the sidelines of a tourism-related event. “He is regretting what he has done. He is a nice person. I pray for him from the bottom of my heart. My sympathies are with him,” he added.

Dutt was sentenced to five years in jail by the Supreme Court March 21 for illegal arms possession during the 1993 Mumbai bomb blasts. He was asked to surrender in four weeks to serve his remaining term of three-and-half years as he has already spent 18 months in jail.

Several members of the film fraternity and politicians like former Samajwadi Party leader Amar Singh and actor-turned-politician Jaya Prada have spoken in Sanjay’s support. Press Council of India chairperson Markandey Katju also sought pardon on humanitarian grounds for the actor and Zaibunissa Kazi, both of whom have been sentenced to five years in prison for their role in the 1993 Mumbai bombings.

However, other political parties like the BJP and the Shiv Sena have opposed the move, saying it would not be fair to pardon Dutt.

Telugu actor Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao junior, commonly known as junior NTR, will pay tribute to his grandfather by grooving to several old hits of Senior NTR in upcoming action-drama “Baadshah”.

“Junior NTR will groove to a five-minute scene featuring several old songs of senior NTR. Since he is an extremely good dancer, we thought it would make sense to make him shake a leg to some of the memorable hits of his grandfather,” film’s spokesperson told.

“He will dance to Telugu songs such as ‘Atta Madugu’ and ‘Vaagulona’ among others. We were tight-lipped about it all these days, but since the film is releasing in few days, we decided to break the news to elevate the excitement,” he added.

While Junior NTR has grooved to remix version of songs from his grandfather’s films such as “Aaku Chatu Pinde” and “Olami Thikka”, this is the first time is doing a medley.

Directed by Srinu Vaitla, “Baadshah” also stars Kajal Agarwal, Navdeep, Brahmanandam, M.S. Narayana, Prakash Raj, Nassar, Vennela Kishore, Ashish Vidyarthi, Kelly Dorji and Chandra Mohan. It is releasing worldwide April 5.

One of the highlights of the film is that it has four cinematographers – K.V. Guhan, I. Andrew, Jayanan Vincent and R.D. Rajasekhar.
