‘RRR’ Singer Kaala Bhairava Corrects His Mistake Instantly!
Young and talented singer Kaala Bhairavaa who happens to be MM Keeravani’s elder son is enjoying life to its fullest in the last couple of days. ‘Naatu Naatu’ song which he and Rahul Sipligunj sang won the Academy award and he got to perform it live onstage at the Oscars. He even met his favourite singer Rihanna at the event and he is overwhelmed with the standing ovation ‘Naatu Naatu’ performance got.
Expressing his happiness, he posted some heartfelt messages on his social media handles thanking the people who made it all possible. He said, “I want to share something with you all. I feel extremely grateful for having had the invaluable opportunity of representing team ‘RRR’ and performing at the Oscars for the best original song category. On that note, I want to share with you all that it’s only because of a few people who directly or indirectly, but ‘completely’ are the reason for me getting this priceless opportunity which I personally feel is far beyond how much I actually deserve! Rajamouli baba, Naanna, Prem Rakshith master, SS Karthikeya anna, Amma and Peddamma. It’s because of their hardwork and workmanship that the song has reach all parts of the world today and is making people dance globally and that’s how I got this chance eventually to perform at the event.” He even thanked the Dylan, Josh and other people who helped in the film’s glorious run in USA. He went onto share the pictures of Rajamouli, Keeravani, Prem Rakshith master and others.
This did not go down with NTR and Charan fans as they feel that he did not thank the two heroes who danced their socks off in the movie and made this famous across the globe. He got criticized on social media heavily and Kaala Bhairava quickly realized his mistake and wrote, “I have no doubt Tarak anna and Charan anna are the reason for success of Naatu Naatu and RRR itself. I was ONLY talking about who all helped me get my opportunity for the academy stage performance. Nothing else. I can see that it was conveyed wrongly and for that, I sincerely apologise for my choice of words.”
Jagan Sought Centre’s Help To Address Pending Issues?
Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy went to the national capital Delhi the other day without any prior intimation. His sudden Delhi visit sparked a debate on what made the Chief Minister go to Delhi. Even when the Assembly sessions were going on, the Andhra CM left for Delhi.
YS Jagan Mohan Reddy met Prime Minister Narendra Modi and it is said that he discussed the pending issues with him during the meeting. The pending issues include the bifurcation promises and the funds that are pending for quite some time.
It’s been around nine years since the state was bifurcated. However, the issues between the states are yet to be addressed. No matter which party is in power the issues are not cleared. Booth TDP and YCP are supportive of the Centre. However, this did not help the state.
Andhra Pradesh’s financial situation is not that great and the state is going into debts. After warning the state of taking big borrowings, the Centre imposed a cap on the borrowings. Jagan is believed to have requested Modi to remove the limit of the borrowings.
The Polavaram project is facing some issues as relocated people are yet to be given compensation. On top of this, a few people in the state are said to have missed a few Centre-backed schemes and Jagan asked Prime Minister Narendra Modi to look into the matter.
After Modi’s meeting, YS Jagan Mohan Reddy would meet the Union Home Minister Amit Shah. However, there is no clarity on what issues Jagan and Amit Shah would discuss.

Jacqueline’s Makeup Artist Not Happy With ‘Naatu Naatu’ Winning Oscar!
SS Rajamouli’s ‘RRR’ has finally made everyone’s dream come true and ‘Naatu Naatu’ song won the Oscar award making it the first Indian production to ever win an Academy award. Composer MM Keeravani and lyricist Chandrabose accepted the award on the stage while the rest of the ‘RRR’ team were totally overjoyed. It is not an achievement for the movie’s unit but it is the victory of the whole country. While everyone is appreciating the ‘RRR’ team for winning the Oscar, makeup artist Shaan Muttathil claims that this award has been bought.
Shaan Muttathil who is the makeup artist of popular actress Jacqueline Fernandez is not at all happy with ‘Naatu Naatu’ winning the Oscar award as he took to Instagram and wrote, “Hahahah this is so funny. I thought only in India we could buy awards lol. But now even the Oscars. Money and what all we can get when we have the money. Even Oscars lol.” This comment has been deleted now but people who saw it were quick enough to take screenshots and shared it on social media.
Going into the details, Jacqueline Fernandez acted in a film titled ‘Tell It Like A Woman’ and the song ‘Applause’ from the movie was in contention to win the Oscar in the Best Original Song category. As we know, MM Keeravani’s ‘Naatu Naatu’, Rihanna’s ‘Lift Me Up’, Lady Gaga’s ‘Hold My Hand’ and ‘This Is Life’ were also in the race. The award went to ‘Naatu Naatu’ song which turned to be the first Oscar for a straight Indian film.
Jacqueline’s film not getting the Oscar seems to have hurt the feelings of her makeup artist and he took out his frustration on social media. This resulted in him facing a lot of heat on social media which made him delete his comment instantly. It looks like a lot of people are not happy with ‘RRR’ getting an Oscar and making the Indians proud.
Prior to the award, the Oscar-winning song was performed live on the stage by singers Kaala Bhairava and Rahul Sipligunj. It got a standing ovation and even the host Jimmy Kimmel talked about this song in his monologue.
Rana Says That He Is A Terminator & Talks About Health Issues!
Rana Daggubati is currently enjoying the success of his maiden web series ‘Rana Naidu’. This family crime drama received mixed talk right from the very beginning but it is getting a lot of views on Netflix. It is even topping in the Top 10 list of most viewed Netflix series in India this weekend. During an interview with Bombay Journey, he talked about his corneal transplant.
He said, “I think I am one of the few guys who spoke about corneal transplant. It was also because there was a kid whose mom had lost her eye and he was very sad in terms of what it is. And I told him its not what it is. Everything has a way of it and that’s when I just told about my eye. I can’t see from my right eye, so I operate in a different view.”
He added, “Many people can get broken because of a physical problem and even it if gets fixed, there is a certain heaviness that will still be there. I had a corneal transplant, I had a kidney transplant so it’s like I am almost the Terminator. So, I was like, ‘come on, I am still surviving and you just have to keep going’.”
Talking about his right eye back in 2016, he stated, “He said, “Should I tell you one thing, I am blind from my right eye. I see only from my left eye. The one you see is someone else’s eye which was donated to me after his death. If I close my left eye, I can see no one. LV Prasad operated me when I was young. Study well, we will support, be courageous as you have to look after your family. Sorrows will go away one day but you have to gear up and keep your family happy always.”
Starring Rana and Venkatesh in the lead, ‘Rana Naidu’ is an Indian adaptation of ‘Ray Donovan’. Apart from the two lead actors, Suchitra Pillai, Gaurav Chopra, Surveen Chawla, Sushant Singh, Abhishek Banerjee, Ashish Vidyarthi and others play key roles. It is made in Hindi as well as Telugu.
