October 29, 2012

Manchu Vishnu who has been reeling under string of flops finally delighted Manchu fans and movie lovers when his film ‘Denikaina Ready’ starring Hansika Motvani was declared a decent hit at the box office by the trade analysts. Film critics gave thumbs up for the comedy in the film which revolved around Brahmanandam. They even lauded the performance of Vishnu who vastly improved his expressions and dancing capabilities. This bought smiles to the Manchu family.

Film makers revealed that the film crossed Vishnu’s successful starrer ‘Dhee’ collections in just five days. Now Vishnu has decided to stick to his strength which is comedy rather than try some thing new and burn his hands. So he is getting ready for success strikes on silver screen soon with film makers queuing for the young hero with some interesting scripts. Now it is for Vishnu to plan his career in a right manner so that he won’t deviate from the success path.

Damarukam in dumps!

October 29, 2012

King Nagarjuna’s much awaited socio fantasy wonder ‘Damarukam’ created ripples couple of weeks back when its release dates were announced. Movie lovers and analysts waited with bated breath for the spectacular show down between Nagajuna’s ‘Damarukam’ and Power Star Pawan Kalyan’s ‘Cameraman Gangato Rambabu’. However Damarukam got postponed and many at that time felt that it was Power Star mania that prompted film makers to postpone the release of the film. Even when Cameraman was struck with controversy, Damarukam film makers did not dare to release the film prompting speculations that Damarukam has been left in dumps.

It was even rumored that King Nagarjuna also lost interest in the project and is concentrating on his romantic entertainer ‘Love Story’ and ‘Bhai’. Film analysts point out that it was the fault of RR.Movie Makers who plunged into losses with its funds stuckup in other projects which resulted in the delay in the project and leading to uncertainty over the future of the film. Many started speculating on the rift between producer and director vis a vis Nagarjuna.

Srinivas Reddy who directed the film said in a tense tone ‘I am shocked to hear the false stories circulated in media. When they are reporting of Rs. 15 Crores spent just on graphics, I can’t bear that. We have just invested Rs. 6 to 7 Crores. It is our wonderful planning and execution of Firefly team we came out with good quality in least budget. Others could have easily spend double than us for the same outcome. Even there are no differences between any of our producer R. Venkat, hero Nagarjun and my self,’

Telangana to see no deadlines!

October 29, 2012

Now that the message is loud and clear that there won’t be any decision from Union Govt on telangana formation, many people and even political analysts feel that telangana people will not see any deadlines set by political parties. Till date all political leaders cutting across parties used to set deadlines linking telangana with festivals. They used to issue statements that next year people will be celebrating the festival in telangana state or some used to say before the arrival of that festival, announcement on telangana formation from Union Govt would come. All this turned to be false till now.

However when all powerful KCR himself became laughing stock with Union Govt taking him for a ride, all political parties and leaders understood the ground realities and realized that if they try to fool people by issuing statements linking festivals with formation of telangana state, people will not believe them and it may in fact boomerang on them. That was the reason why political parties and leaders maintained low profile during dasara celebrations.

They are now aware that with elections nearing in 2014, people will not be bothered by telangana sentiment and will be more concerned about basic amenities and also rise in prices of essential commodities. That was the reason why Chandra Babu and Sharmila undertook yatras.s.

While sources said doctors adviced him rest for couple of days, Babu is proceeding with his yatra. But entire TDP cadre, people started organizing prayers at all religious institutions and many thronged to console him. Jr NTR rushed to the spot along with Srinu Vytla and Bandla Ganesh.

October 29, 2012

YS.Jagan’s sister Sharmila undertook padayatra to counter Chandrababu’s 117 day yatra which is stealing the show from YSRCP with its leader counting days for his release.

High Command insults CM Kiran

October 29, 2012

When ever there will be cabinet expansion at Center, it is common practice followed by Cong High Command to get the views of CMs of the states on who should be excluded or included. However this time Delhi leaders seems to have kept CM Kiran Kumar Reddy in dark about the cabinet expansion and also the leaders who will be getting births from the state.

Unlike in previous instances during which Delhi leaders used to inform the candidates who were shortlisted just couple of days before the swearing in ceremony, this time Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi have taken personal interest and called the candidates over phone a week back informing them about their selection and asking them to be present in Delhi on the said dates. They however asked them to keep the information secret.

However some like Sarve Satyanarayana and Killi Kriparani unable to hide their joy shared the news with their close aides and even to CM. However CM Kiran after listening to their story that they have received call from Cong High Command and PM Office, told them not to fall in the hands of pranksters and get fooled by them. He also told them that during no time AP was given more than two portfolios and it will be the same this time. However CM proved to be wrong as more than 4 found their way in the Union Cabinet. This is a huge insult to CM Kiran by Cong High Command.

Reliance gets Jaipal’s wings clipped

October 29, 2012

Many state politicians feel that the clout Jaipal Reddy enjoys with Cong High Command and Sonia Gandhi is immense and no one could dare speak against him. However yesterday’s cabinet expansion proved a point that Mukesh Ambani uses more clout than Jaipal and used the cabinet expansion to shift Jaipal who has been stalling his company’s interests.

Reliance for long has been demading for increase in gas price for the resources it unearthed from KG basin. But Jaipal did not heed to his pressures and so Mukesh directly interacted with Sonia and PM Manmohan and got his work done. Right from the time Jaipal took charge of Petroleum Minister from Murali Deora in 2011, Ambani has been pressurising Jaipal for increase in prices. However he did not heed and so Mukesh started pressurising PM Manmohan and Sonia.

Reliance has been accused of bringing down gas production only to get its demands okayed by the Govt. However it did not workout as Jaipal ordered CAG auditing on the company. But CAG audit has been successfully stalled by Reliance. But when Jaipal persisted with CAG audit, Mukesh fully aware that it would boomerang on him, got into act quickly and successfully shunted Jaipal out of petroleum ministry.

Balakrishna unduly targeted

October 29, 2012

Natasimha Balakrishna is such a powerful star in Tollywood industry that he can ignite feeling either way. His fans die to hear his deadly dialogues while his detractors mock fun of him. He never reacted to all this and took everything in his stride in a sportive manner. This very nature of him made him the soft target for some elements who derive sadistic pleasure of cracking undue jokes on him. They try to relate some trivial incidents and hold Balayya responsible for them. Most recently some people held Balayya responsible for Chandra Babu’s freak accident saying it was due to his phone talk that had its sinister effect.

Even his films will not be viewed with out any bias as film critics rate the film going by some prejudice in their minds. Otherwise one wonder how could films like powerful entertainer like Adhinayakudu and then Srimannarayana was rated below that of highly controversial and below average Pawan Kalyan recently released ‘Cameraman Gangato Rambabu’. True some criticism is worth the way he selects his wigs and costumes and one should confine to that only. However even when he came up with some superlative dance movements in Srimannarayana except for one or two none appreciated his efforts. Hope critics analyse his films in impartial manner with out any bias.

Who will be Megastar’s target

October 28, 2012

Megastar Chiranjeevi achieved his political dream at last when he became Cabinet Minister at Center. Till recently Tom, Dick and Harry mocked Megastar and made fun of him the moment he merged his party in Congress.

Now that he became Minister at Center, he has mega power at his hands. Many are wondering whom he will target with his power.

Some are speculating that his first target will be Darsakaratna Dasari Narayana Rao who is his sworn enemy. Many times he made fun of him directly and indirectly. Next will be his political rivals Natasimha Balakrishna and Young Tiger NTR. Some say even Power Star Pawan Kalyan with whom he has personal scores to settle may also be one of the target.

In the midst of all this it is a momentous occasion for the state and mega fans as Chiru scaled new heights in his political journey. His fans expect he will bring laurels to all.
