Mahesh’s ‘Bava’ with different treat this time

Prince Mahesh Babu and his mania at the box office needs no introduction. Right now, another member from his family is doing his best to grow in the circuit. He is Sudheer Babu, brother- in-law of Mahesh who recently made his debut with the film ‘SMS’. Though the film didn’t work much, Sudheer got few decent marks for his dance and fights.
Now, it is heard that he is all set to take off with another movie and this one is slated to be a total action entertainer. This is going to be directed by Vamsi Krishna Akella who made the horror flick ‘Raksha’. Buzz is that a noted producer is helming this project and Sudheer from his end wants to give his hundred percent.
Since it is just the starting stage and there is a long way for Sudheer to go, the cine folks are waiting to see whether he can reach atleast half of his ‘Bava’s success and graphs. While he looks confident, the coming years will give a clear picture on how fate will shape up his career.

Can Rana impress with his dances?

Share

Stunts and Dances are very much prerequisites of a hero to impress in Tollywood. Mega Star chiranjeevi almost ruled industry for 25 years with his dances as main asset. Such is the importance of dance. Rana, the scion of Daggubati family made his debut with Leader. He played the role of a politician in the movie in which there is no scope for dance. His second movie, Nenu Na Rakshasi is also the story of sad lover in which Rana did not offer much in terms of dance.These two movies had brought an impression on audience that Rana is not a good dancer.

Rana had decided to brush all this aside. He had brought in Choreographer Prem Rakshit for his latest movie Na Ishtam to prove his dancing prowess. He is said to have toiled hard in terms of dances in the movie especially in the introduction song.

Lets see how far he can impress audience!

Share
The tough taskmaster S S Rajamouli and his influence on the box office and his graph as a director needs no introduction. Today, there are many who are aspiring to be like him maintaining 100% success record. However, it is now heard that Rajamouli seems to be influencing a hero as well who is getting misled.

Kajal Gives Importance Only To Money

Share
While earning lakhs of rupees in South circuits, this seductress is known for praising Bollywood. After her first Hindi flick ‘Singham’ got released, Kajal did all those raunchy things to root her presence in Hindi arena. But, a twist in her decision now!
Earlier Kajal faced the ire of many producers and directors down south for commenting that Bollywood is her top priority. Off late, the sexy girl is rejecting offers from Hindi circuit giving preference to South films. Though she is said to have realized the importance of South industry, the original talk is something different. Provided with the likes of Kareena, Katrina and Anushka Sharma, Kajal is no where a match for them in terms of both acting and glamour.
Interestingly, remuneration offered to this big-eyed beauty by Hindi production houses is very less when compared to what she is ‘sucking’ from South producers. ‘Kajal tried to become an overnight hottie in Hindi circuit with her topless shots. More than a couple of controversies, nothing had fallen in her kitty’, say Cine lovers. A quick glance at all these facts reveal Kajal’s like for money, money and money, which is more from South than North!

One Bad Movie Puts Mahesh In Backseat!?

Share
One easily says that Mahesh Babu is the undoubted number one of Telugu industry with no competitors in the reach. But, is his position such solid that no jerk can destabilize it is the question!
‘Stardom’ is something you achieve in years and grab the crown such that a couple of flops will not pull away the ‘aura’ from you. But, Mahesh is the top-hero all of a sudden, thanks to Dookudu and Businessman. Without any thought, one can easily say Superstar Rajnikanth, Megastar Chiranjeevi and Amitabh Bachan are such ’emperors’ of their respective film circuits.
But, can we put Mahesh in the same place where they ruled for years. Analysts say a strong ‘No’. If two bad-films like ‘Athidi’ and ‘Khaleja’ fall in his path, no doubt he has to take a back seat as he is frontrunner only because of two flicks, they say. Else, if Jr.NTR or Ramcharan scores some back to back whopping commercial hits, then the throne will be gone. Looks like Mahesh should give a series of hits to prove that he is really worth calling a ‘No.1 Tollywood Hero’ irrespective of his brand endorsements and opinion-poll wins. What is your say folks?

Why No Sound About ‘Vennela 1.5’?

Share
A couple of months back, director turned comedian Vennela Kishore created much hype with those raunchy songs and wild posters of his debut directorial venture. All of a sudden, there is no sound about this movie!
The norm in film industry generally is to release a movie within 30 days from the date of audio release. However, Vennela 1.5’s audio was release a couple of months back but still there is no news of it. Insiders revealed that the post-production work is still going on to make the film available by summer. While some say they start promotion once the first copy is in hand, few others mention that the makers need seriousness in wrapping up the project.
Much buzz was generated for this movie for its raunchy songs and erotic posters a month back, but everything is getting cooled down now. Only the film’s release will decide if our comedian Vennela Kishore tickles audience or viewers will make fun of his product!

Heavy Cut Down In ‘Damarukam’ Budget

Share
Touted to be a hair rising Visual Effects treat, this movie is heard from years but still not making any noise. ‘Damarakum’, the socio-fantasy movie that has Nagarjuna in the lead is undergoing a bad-phase, say insiders.
The budget of the film is expected to touch around 40 crore mark, the biggest in Nag’s career. Before ‘Businessman’ and ‘Poola Rangadu’, work on this movie was slowed down with producer RR Makers not finding enough money to wrap it up. The makers were expected to finish this project on a brisk pace when they incurred huge profits with ‘Businessman’.
However all those profit-tables are limited to paper ads, but the gains are never used to push ‘Damarukam’ fast. The makers are not shedding huge money for VFX as the content hasn’t come out pretty well, say insiders. Srinivas Reddy who is the king of b-c centre comedy movies is directing this flick, while Anushka scorches the screen once again with Nag. Let us see how the movie comes out finally!

Rajamouli’s threat to Charan and NTR

Share
There is a major shuffling going on between the release dates of summer biggies. Postponement of Racha is creating problems for the other releases and there would be adjustments done by the makers of those films. The competition is primarily between Racha and Dammu which will be released in April. Gabbar Singh will release in May, so there won’t be direct impact of it on these films.
However, Racha and Dammu are going to face the music of Rajamouli. Eega is expected to release in April. The date is not yet fixed as the post production work is taking more time than anticipated. But it would release sometime in April irrespective of the competition. Which means Eega is going to eat into the business of Racha and Dammu.
Rajamouli was the person who gave biggest hits to NTR and Charan in their respective careers. But this time he would be locking horns with the stars that he had made. Let’s see how would they respond and withstand against the master filmmaker, who is known as the best doctor to read the pulse of masses.

Folks, Namratha Shirodhkar is one such girl who is making her presence strongly felt in Superstar Mahesh’s life. Sources say that Namratha is the key decision maker in terms of selecting heroines for her hubby. Seductress Kajal’s selection for upcoming Sukumar’s movie happened only after this star-wife gave her consent, say sources.

They say that she liked the chemistry between Superstar and big-eyed beauty in ‘Businessman’ to the max. Well , if any director wants a lip-kiss from Superstar then do they need to take approval from our Namratha madam?

Big Change In MohanBabu This Year

Share
Today, actor and producer Mohan Babu is celebrating his birthday. Film Nagar folks have identified a big-change in him this year both on personal front and on professional front!
On personal front, Mohan Babu stopped promoting his kids, if sources are to be believed. Even for his younger son Manoj’s latest flick Mr.Nookayya, the self-styled actor tweeted a couple of good things but hasn’t come before cameras to promote it. Likewise, he is not promoting any of the stuff made by Lakshmi Manchu too. While Vishnu is a different case as people are forgetting him any way, until he comes up with a swashbuckling movie, MB is not talking no more about him. Professionally, MB used to take potshots at different actors for different things and is famous for his press meets to make scathing attacks. 
With many stunning happenings on AP’s political front, Mohan Babu’s silence is an utter shock for both fans and political circuits. Till now he hasn’t voiced his feelings for Congress people ditching his guru Dasari a Rajyasabha seat for his long time friend-enemy Chiranjeevi. We can only say, Mohababu changed with changing times at present!
Gulte.com wishes many happy returns of the day to ‘Dialogue King’ Mohan Babu.
