TRS to rethink its strategies !

October 23, 2012

KCR and TRS might have never expected in the wildest of dreams that political scenario in Telangana will be changing so quickly. The complete turn around in Telangana region came as a shock to them. When Chandra Babu planned to enter Telangana region as a part of his padayatra, TRS announced that it would oppose him tooth and nail and will not allow him to enter the region unless until he clarifies his stand on telangana. Many thought that TRS along with TJAC known for their violent ways will be successful in their attempts.However when Babu awas accorded grand reception in Mahaboobnagar in the heart of Telangana, TRS leaders went into hiding. Now they are even giving statements that after Dasara they will target Cong.

Political analysts feel that it is remarkable change in TRS strategy as from the beginning it has been going soft on Cong though there was no action from their end but went hammer and tongs on Babu. Now TRS and its supporting organizations like TJAC morale went sagging and they are even questioning when a leader like Babu who is for united andhra gets such welcome, where is the sentiment of Telangana.Babu from the beginning adopted Palamuru of Mahaboobnagar district and worked for the abolishment of patel-patvari rule. Now the people thronged to see Babu and watching this TRS and TJAC backtracked as they turned dumbstruck.

On which file Babu will sign first?

October 23, 2012

Chandra Babu Naidu who is on padayatra saying ‘Vasutnna mee kosam’ across the state entered Telangana yesterday. While everyone expected that he would face severe opposition from the people of Telangana, to the shock of all telangana playaers he infact received grand welcome. Buoyed by the success of his yatra and the overwhelming response Babu promised many boons to the poor and down trodden. He said once he return back to power, his first job is to sign on the file, thus fulfilling his promise.

But those who have observed Babu feel that he is giving boons and promises left right and center without even considering the feasibility of his promises. It is a known fact that the current treasury situation and financial condition of Govt is quite bad and each and everyday Govt is squeezing people with one or other form of taxes. It wont be any different for who ever comes to power. Infact it will be quite difficult to head the Govt and rule the state in the present circumstances.

Many people are left wondering on which file Babu will sign first because everywhere he is promising that he will do this and that and he would sign on their file first when he comes to power.

October 23, 2012

Ram Gopal Varama-The name generates immense interest among his supporters and his opponents. RGV whose middle name is controversy’s family child, have seen many controversies but came out unscratched on many occasions. Analysts feel that tollyood directors and film makers can take a leaf out of Ramu’s book. Some advocate they can join coaching session and get trained on this professor on how to handle controversies.

Puri Jagannath recently burnt his hands with ‘Cameraman Gangato Rambabu’ while Pawan burnt his hands twice with ‘Komaram Puli’ and now with ‘Cameraman’.However if one goes through the history of RGV’s film making he courted many controversies. His films like Raktha Charitra, Katha Screenplay Direction Appalaraju, ‘Bezawada’ attracted attention and attacks from political parties and fans alike. His recent films ’26/11 attacks’ and ‘Reddygaru Poyaru’ is also under media fire. Even with all this he managed to prevent attacks on him.

This shows that he has some media and political management which other directors and film makers are lacking. One can appreciate how RGV wriggled out of huge public anger and media outrage when he made his visit along with the then CM Vilasrao Deshmukh during Mumbai 26/11 attacks. He saved himself but his friend Vilas Rao lost his job. For controversy handling contact RGV.

Personal attacks may backfire on Babu

October 22, 2012

TDP cadre and its leadership is adopting belligerent posture against YSRCP and its party leaders Vijayamma and Sharmila. It seems going by their responses they never expected Sharmila to take the counter yatra and feel that entire attention is focused on her since she being a woman. As such its Vijayawada MLC Rajendra Prasad in Vijayawada released a CD alleging that Vijayamma by carrying bible is indulging in mass conversions where ever she goes.

Today TDP’s firebrand leader Shobha Rani sought to nail Sharmila by questioning how her first husband lost his life. Whether it was an accident or she herself murdered him. She went on to question whether Brother Anil’s first wife was forced for divorce. Till recently Babu and other leaders of TDP concentrated on YS.Jagan and used to attack him personally.

However now that Jagan in jail and he is facing stiff competition from two women Vijayamma and Sharmila, he and his party couldn’t digest it anymore and are launching vitriolic personal attacks. Political analysts however feel that personal attacks that too on women backfire on Chandra Babu and all the good work of his padayatra would be undone. It is better for him to focus on peoples problems than on other leaders.

They cite that only by carrying out slanderous personal attacks on YS.Jagan they increased his popularity. Now by carrying out attacks on YSR who is still popular with people and his family, Babu is repeating the same mistake.

‘Cameraman’ tears for whom?

October 22, 2012

Thanks to Pawan mania and ‘Gabbar Singh’ grandness the film opened to sky rocketing collections. However controversy plunged the film in deep crisis and now after the Govt committee cuts, it has to be seen for whom ‘Cameraman’ is presenting tears.

Pawan Kalyan-He is off in a flash and flew to foreign even prior to the release of the film. As such though his reputation has taken a beating, it will be rising again as was seen during Komaram Puli case. So he did not make any losses.Many allege it was he who was behind this story.

Tamanna-Milky beauty Tamanna though got negative reviews for her role, won thumbs up for her beauty treat from masses though they were disappointed that she danced only in three songs.

Puri Jagannath-He drew most flak for directing this film fully aware of the story. There were allegations that due to his close links with YSRCP chief YS.Jagan, he made this film. However he was heard commenting that it was Pawan who insisted on the plot and he just penned the dialogues. He did not make much loss as he received his remuneration.

Danayya and Dil Raju-Dil Raju suffered the most and also the distributors and exhibitors in telangana region due to the controversy. It has to be seen how they will be compensated in the whole issue. On the positive side the film got immense media attention but overseas reports also suggest that all is not well even there.

October 22, 2012

YSRCP is the most watched party by entire nation in the political battlefield of Andhra Pradesh. Political analysts predict that it will be the party which will capture power in the next elections or emerge as the key player in the govt formation at center.

True to its style the party is marching ahead of all opponents even though its leader Jagan Mohan Reddy was sent to Chanchalguda Jail. Many are stunned at the adeptness and skill of the young leader in evolving political strategies that are stunning even seasoned politicians. When Chandra Babu Naidu went on massive padayatra everyone started gauging the yatra.

He very well knew that neither the Congress nor the Union Govt is in a position to call for an all party meet or concentrate on telangana as it plunged into various problems at national level.

Starting from today CBN will be entering telangana and while he and TDP cadre hopes that after the letter he wont be facing any opposition from telangana people, TJAC,TRS and other telanagana organizations vowed to stop Babu at all points till he pledges his support for the formation of Telangana state in unequivocal terms in letter and spirit.
