Trivikram’s Son Aiming To Be Like His Dad!
It is quite common to see a lawyer’s son becoming a lawyer, an actor’s son becoming an actor, a journalist’s son becoming a journalist and so on. But a lot of directors’ sons don’t become directors. They choose acting or any other department in the film industry if needed.
Barring K Raghavendra Rao’s family where the legendary director’s father was a director himself and his son Prakash is also a filmmaker, not many directors have their sons becoming directors. But it looks like Trivikram and his son are going to be different. The star writer-director got married long back and Trivikram was quite young back then. He has two songs and they are pursuing their graduation right now.
One can expect them to be married in the next few years. In a recent interview, Trivikram’s wife Soujanya revealed that one of her sons is interested in direction. She added that he sees a scene and tells what camera and lens were used. With his father’s huge knowledge of the world and filmmaking, the kid has all the help he needs to become a director. One day, we may even get to see the father and son battling it out at the box office with their films.
As we know, Sai Soujanya has started her career as a producer recently. She associated with Sithara Entertainments and made movies like ‘Sir’, ‘Butta Bomma’ and others. She revealed that her judgment is quite good and she claims to be listening to a few new scripts as well. Let us see if she makes it big as a producer or not.

Ramoji Rao On Hospital Bed,What Happened To Him?
Media veteran Ramaji Rao needs no introduction. He is credited for the contribution he made to the media in Telugu land. Of late he has been in the news with the alleged Margadarsi Chit Funds. For the first time, CID served him notice in the case asking him to appear before them for questioning.
Amid this, a picture is doing rounds which shows Eenadu Groups chairperson CH Ramoji Rao in a bed-ridden state. Though there is no information on where the picture was clicked, it raised many concerns among people about Mr. Rao. We can see a strap around his belly and such rest is given only when something is wrong with one’s back.
On top of this Ramoji was born in 1936 and his age is 86 now. Despite no confirmation, this angle should not be missed as the age factor plays a big role in one’s health. With age catching up, Ramoji Rao might have fallen ill and might be going through the required treatment and medication.
Ramoji Rao is in a hospital bed and we have to get clarity on whether the picture is from a hospital or his house. Once we get clarity on this, then we would get more information about the health condition of Ramoji Rao.
On the other hand, Ramoji Rao faced notices in the alleged Margadarsi Chit Funds scam row. In his career, a Chief Minister took a strong stand in the case and wanted to probe the matter and bring Ramoji Rao to court.
The alleged scam is a big development in his career and this might have also left an impact on him mentally and fell ill. The Eenadu groups or the Ramoji Rao’s family members would release a statement on this soon.
Talking about the alleged Margadarsi Chit Funds scam, the company is accused of diverting the funds to other means. Former MP Undavalli Arun Kumar has been fighting the case for the past few years. Now the Andhra Pradesh government joined the row. The state Crime Investigation Department is probing the matter and served notices to Ramoji Rao and his daughter-in-law Sailaja Kiran in the case.

Why the Norwegian Ambassador Have Issues With Indian Film?
Biopics and movies based on real-life incidents are a hit formula for Bollywood. Many films became hits and another film joined the list. A recent Bollywood film released last month is based on an incident involving Indian parents in another nation that happened a decade ago.
Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway starring Rani Mukerji is a Bollywood film released in March. The film shows an incident that happened to an Indian woman in Norway in 2011. The film received critical acclaim. However, the film is also facing some criticism. A few have issues with the film and the narration it has.
Common people having issues with a film is common. But an ambassador to a film had issues with the film and said that the film comes with factual inaccuracy and it has a fictional narration of the film and the story. The Ambassador said that what was shown in the film is not right and this needs to be told.
Hans Jacob Frydenlund, Norwegian Ambassador to India found fault with the film and said that it won’t depict Norway’s belief in the value of family life and respect for different cultural systems. He gave an interview with the Indian Express and shared his views on the film. He said that incorrectly depicts Norway’s belief in family life.
“It incorrectly depicts Norway’s belief in family life and our respect for different cultures. Child welfare is a matter of great responsibility, never motivated by payments or profit,” the Ambassador said on Twitter.
To get an idea of the film, we have to first know the plot and story of the film. Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway tells us the real-life story involving an Indian couple that waged a legal fight against the Norway government to get back the custody of their children. Seeing their fight, the Indian government also supported them.
Debika and her husband Aniruddha used to live in Norway. In 2011 the Norwegian authorities took away their children alleging that they are not taking care of the kids. Shocked by this, the Chatterjees started a fight for their kids. The Indian government also joined the row and helped the couple get their kids back.
The film also highlights the dark side of the child custody system in Norway. But the Norway Ambassador is finding fault with the film. No one understands what made him raise injections when the real incident was shown.

Overall, it seems like Akhil has a busy year ahead, with multiple exciting projects in the pipeline. Fans are eagerly waiting for updates on his upcoming films and can’t wait to see him on the big screen once again.
Sukumar Super Hit… Rajamouli Super Flop..!
Both Rajamouli and Sukumar are phenomenal directors. While many say that Rajamouli is on a whole new level due to the magnitude and scale of his movies and the international acclaim they get, there are others who claim that Sukumar is more creative and experimental with his films. Keeping it aside, both these star directors are doing everything they can to take Telugu cinema to the next level.
But there is one thing in which Sukumar is miles ahead of Rajamouli. One may get shocked by this statement but it is true. Rajamouli might have taken his film to an Oscar stage but when it comes to grooming his assistants, he is a huge disappointment. A few assistant directors who worked under Rajamouli tried their luck as full-fledged directors but they did not work out. As a teacher, Rajamouli has failed to share his supreme qualities and teach them.
On the other hand, Sukumar is gaining super success by himself and turning his students into the talk of the industry. A lot of producers and heroes are showing interest in working with young directors who worked under Sukumar’s guidance. His students have proved themselves with super hits like ‘Kumari 21F’, ‘Uppena’ and ‘Dasara’. There are high hopes for ‘Virupaksha’ as well. Sukumar who was a maths teacher previously is showcasing his teaching experience in the industry too and churning out hit directors apart from hit movies.
But Rajamouli’s students who work very hard on their teacher’s films and help in gaining international acclaim are not able to find success independently. This is why Sukumar became a super hit as a teacher and Rajamouli was a super flop teacher. We need to see if Rajamouli breaks this myth and produces a hit director in the future or not.
