Jr NTR gets tough competetion from Ram !

Share
We have been discussing about NTR Junior’s declining power of dances. Dammu movie proved that NTR is not the best anymore for whatever the reason be! NTR will have to come up with the best to compete with Allu Arjun, who is sitting pretty on top. Even Ram Charan fluid dance moves are setting the temperatures high.
At this point one more challenge is thrown at the young tiger. It is from the little yet energetic hero Ram. This hero is one of the best dancers in Tollywood now. He is putting in extra efforts like Bunny and is trying to introduce new dance moves to Telugu audience. In his upcoming film Endukante Premanta, Ram has done few sensational dances which would give any top dancer run for their money.
A slickly cut song teaser itself had many scintillating dance moves of Ram. He promises his fans a dance treat with this movie. It is high time for Tarak to realize the fact that his fans are going restless to see their matinee idol dancing like a live wire. Tarak, wake up before the competition gets tough and tougher.

Pawanism! The Second Religion Of Tollywood

Share
The first religion of Tollywood is none other than ‘cinema’. Now, there is a serious rise of the followers of this particular theme called ‘Pawanism’, making it the second largest religion of cine-folks.
From directors to actors to producers who worked with Powerstar Pawan Kalyan, it has become a habit to describe their hero as a God. If a couple of producers and directors say this, we can write off it as an exaggeration. What if, the whole of Tollywood’s folks keep chanting the word ‘Pawan’, making ‘Pawanism’ the second religion of Telugu Cinema Industry. ‘It is not because of his stardom, but due to his attitude and abnormal human qualities’, felt a film critic. People like Raviteja and Ram rose to stardom only after imitating Pawan Kalyan in their initial movies. Others like Ganesh, Harish Shankar and Karunakaran got their break only after associating with him and hence they show that extreme courtesy. Top directors like Rajamouli, Sreenu Vytla and Trivikram die to make movies with Pawan, because of his extreme down to earth nature.
Even audiences love Pawan Kalyan from the bottom of their heart and that is the reason for his flop movies to recover the full investment. They say it is difficult to peel out the reasons behind this craze for Pawan, but his positive energy and helping nature are one of the facts that create vibrations in the hearts of his fans. Interestingly, this ‘Pawanism’ has fans of many heroes as its followers.

Tamanna is best at Mingling with Co Heroines

Share
Most of the times star heroine throw tantrums when they come across other starlets of the tinsel town. But, Tamanna is worth mentioning for her easy mingling nature despite her craze.
At the recent audio launch of Ram’s upcoming ‘Endukante Premanta’, Tamanna is witnessed courting her best nature. The stage became quite glamorous with the presence of ravishing damsels like Shriya and Kajal along with our milky beauty. Most of the time, Tammu is seen engaging with everyone at the function, including the other two hotties. While Shriya and Kajal maintained distance with each other, Tamanna mingled with both of them at ease.
‘There is no sign of attitude or hot headedness in Tamanna even after scoring back to back hits these days’, an onlooker revealed. If glamour and performance gets you back to back movies, right attitude gets you a long run and the best example is Tamanna. What is your say, guys?

Brahmanandam’s Dream Project with Triple Role

Share
He is called the comedy king of Tollywood and atleast six out of ten films that release have him in one role or other. He is Brahmanandam fondly known as Brahmi and while he has carved a special niche of his own in the comedy league, it is heard that he has decided to come up with something different.
News is that Brahmi is working on a special project wherein he would be seen in triple role. And here is the best part. The three roles would be that of grandfather, father and son. Not only that, the role of the son would be of a mentally challenged individual so it is more of a message oriented flick with entertainment.
It is heard that this is the dream project of Brahmi and he has been working on that since quite a while. Given the current demand for his presence in many movies and various other obligations, Brahmi is reportedly going at a slow pace but the day is not far when his dream project will become a reality.

Star Heroes making Films only for Fans ?

Share
A look at the recent audio releases and the films releasing makes you clear about one thing, films are made for fans. But experts say that there is a difference between fans and audiences. Here goes the story! 
Filmmakers like Boyapati and Harish Shankar recently gave statements that they are making films keeping the taste of fans in view to match their expectations. Are these directors and their star heroes distancing from audiences with these statements is a big question now. If only Mahesh fans had watched ‘Pokiri’ and ‘Dookudu’, both could not garner huge collections. ‘Businessman’ failed to recreate magic, because the film is intended only for fans. ‘Magadheera’ became a big hit only due to the viewership of all heroes’ fans but not just mega-fans. Irrespective of the mega-craze, ‘Racha’ is able to collect its investment back, but didn’t turn up a trend setter. 
Critics say that directors should change their mindsets to make movies for ‘audience’ but not just for ‘fans’. With their fan-loving movies, industry will get work but it cannot get a page for itself in history. Till date, 2012 has not seen a proper movie that is loved by all sections of audiences. Let us see if any director could come up with a movie that everyone loves to watch!
