He is currently working on ‘F3’ which is an out-and-out comedy film just like ‘F2’. The shooting of this film is going on at a brisk pace and he is aiming to release it in the second half of 2021. Before starting ‘F3’, Anil Ravipudi entered the production business and made ‘Gaali Sampath’. He even provided the story, screenplay and supervised the film. This film starring Sree Vishnu and Rajendra Prasad got a decent talk but did not get enough collections thereby ending in losses.

It was released along with two other films namely ‘Jathi Ratnalu’ and ‘Sreekaram’ which also had an effect on its box-office collections. On the whole, ‘Gaali Sampath’ was not a profitable outing for Anil Ravipudi. But the successful director wants to try his luck once again as a producer with a crazy project. The script work is reportedly going on for this and this film is expected to commence once Anil Ravipudi finishes working on ‘F3’. Hope he becomes successful as a producer in his second trial.

They had taken care to cast their votes early in the morning. MLA Bhumana Karunakar Reddy was among the earliest to cast his vote in his booth. With the leaders skipping the polling day tour of the booths, several third and fourth rung leaders virtually stayed away from the polling. As a result, the polling percentage fell down drastically. Unlike the panchayat and the corporation elections, he polling percentage remained very low. Till late in the afternoon, the polling in several booths hovered around 30 per cent.

Several other BJP workers too joined her and sent back fake voters. TDP candidate Panabaka Lakshmi too has sent back some fake voters.

Masks, social distancing go for a toss in Sharmila’s protest

Share

Corona safety measures, it appears, are not meant for the political class. Key measures like safe distance and usage of masks are being given a go by in political rallies and protection programmes. The case in point is the Thursday’s dharma by YS Sharmila at the Indira Park protest area.

Not one leader, including YS Sharmila, her mother YS Vijayamma, Not wore the masks. They also threw the social distancing norm to winds during the dharna. A large number of supporters, who thronged to see the spectacle, too did not wear masks. Not just that, they also sat without the mandatory social distancing. Even prominent speakers like BC leader R Krishnaiah and Left liberal leader Kanche Ilaiah did not put on the mask while sitting on the dais. Unfortunately, the leaders sat too close to each other. At a time when Corona infections are rising in the Telugu states, especially in Telangana, such meetings are not just unnecessary, but are also health hazards. Yet, no one seemed to have cared.

Even Sharmila was taken into custody, during which there were some action drama. All these are potential contact points. It may be recalled that at least 14 key campaigners in Nagarjunasagar bypolls, had tested positive for Covid. Despite that, they took an active part in the campaign of the ruling party. The same situation prevailed at YS Sharmila’s protest programme.
