Modi adopting Chinese ideas?
In his recent interaction with the Indian citizens, Prime Minister Narendra Modi pitched a slogan ‘AatmaNirbharIndia’ which means our nation has to be self-reliant from now on.
To overcome this critical economical crisis, Modi asked the citizens to encourage local products and more specifically he said that buying local brands and local products will revive the economy to a very great extent.
This theme is widely popular as ‘Vocal for Local’ which has been adopted by China for many years. One of the main reasons China has become a global power is that they have identified their strength of human resources.
They implemented certain plans using all the resources they possess effectively and successfully established many companies locally and created employment for millions of its citizens.
Most appreciably, they took care of the income tax system on a personal level. If we have a look at the gross annual income of the Chinese government, the personal income tax constitutes not more than 7-8%. Whereas, it is a staggering 25% in India.
The majority of the Chinese stay in their country and make a living using their skill set and to be frank, India has failed terribly in this aspect and the talented people are looking elsewhere for more income and recognition.
So, finally, Modi realized the importance of self-reliance during this COVID-19 crisis period,s and let’s hope that this ‘AatmaNirbharIndia’ will be a huge success.
I’m Making Script For Chiranjeevi: Bobby
Talent alone is not enough to shine in the film industry, one should have a little bit of luck on his side. Bobby Alias Ravindra is one of those lucky guys.
By showing his talent as a story writer and assistant director he got a chance to direct Ravi Teja. He went on to direct stars like Pawan Kalyan, NTR later.
He directed a multistarrer with Venkatesh – Naga Chaitanya. If everything goes according to the plan, he is going to direct Megastar Chiranjeevi now. This is the career graph of Bobby irrespective of hits, average films.
Let us have a chat with him.
How are you spending time in lockdown?
I’m finetuning the already okayed story. I’m developing it into a full script.
Are you readying the script for Megastar?
Yes. I have narrated him a story. He liked it. I’m improvising it.
It seems you are lucky. You have done a few films but all the films are with big stars
Just luck is not enough. We should also have stuff. We should have stories, we should be able to develop them and narrate to them. I thank everybody from Ravi Teja who gave me the first opportunity by identifying me, and all others who gave me opportunities.
Why there is a gap between a film to film?
What should we do, there are many directors.
We have many heroes, right?
Yes. But they are lining up a couple of new projects while their current project is going on. So, it takes some time for us to get an offer.
Are you anxious, tense because of Megastar fanbase because you are going to do a film with him?
I’m also one of the fans. I came to the industry by watching his films.
How are you going to present your favorite hero as a fan?
The way fans like him. This is not the time to reveal more.
You’ve done a film with Victory Venkatesh. Did you learn philosophy from him?
Let us keep aside philosophy, I have learned family values from him. I came to know that we should give enough time, value to our family irrespective of our profession. I used to miss my daughter during ‘Venky Mama’ shoot. When I shared the same thing with him he told “The lives of cinema people are like that. Children will grow up and we will not notice it. So, we should give them enough time”. He said many things like these.
Do you really follow them?
Luckily I’m spending time with my daughter for the last two months due to corona lockdown. I’m observing her growth.
Jagan’s overconfidence killing the main issue?
Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Jagan Mohan Reddy was praised for his immediate response to the ‘LG Polymer gas leak’ incident and the compensation his government paid is the first of its kind in the history of the country. Jagan who successfully subsided the uproar has become overconfident these days and is not keeping the focus on the main issue.
Due to the 40-day strict lockdown, the state’s economy has reached its lowest ever in the past decade and thanks to wines shops which are being run successfully even after a 75% hike in the prices, otherwise, the situation would have been the worst in the history of AP.
‘COVID-19 pandemic’ is the real issue and Jagan needs to take care of that in the first place. But the AP CM who is quite sure that the AP people always abide by his decisions is focussing on unnecessary matters in this critical situation. Distributing Amaravthi lands to the poor people is one of them and he was bashed by High Court yesterday in the same matter.
Jagan needs to take care of the COVID-19 and the damaged economy by discussing the future plans of the government for the revival of the economy with the concerning officials rather than letting his ego to get better of him. Many people in the state have become unemployed and are facing salary cuts and Jagan needs to show them a way and ensure that his government will always look after them and he should concentrate to make every minute fruitful.
People may love him, adore him and tolerate all his deeds but when it comes to their life and the well-being of their families, nothing is going to stop that uproar and it is even critical to handle the heat. So, beware CM Sir.

When KCR Imitates Narendra Modi!
In the initial days of Coronavirus pandemic, Telangana Rashtra Samithi president and chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao used to take it easy and make statements that it was not a serious disease but it could be cured with simple tablets.
At the official meetings and even at the first press conference, KCR did not wear any face mask. But as he realised the seriousness of the pandemic, he started talking cautiously and also wearing face masks regularly.
But now, after nearly two months of lockdown, KCR, too, is getting bored of wearing face masks.
He appears to be inspired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who has been covering his mouth with a shawl that he wears around his neck. In the last two addresses to the nation through television, Modi was wearing only shawl.
This has attracted KCR as well. On Friday, the Telangana chief minister, too, imitated Modi by sporting a shawl around his neck and covering his face with it whenever he was speaking.
Pictures of KCR wearing the shawl at the high-level official meeting on Corona virus surfaced in the media.
Apparently, KCR was feeling inconvenient in sporting the face mask. He thought shawl is a better option, as he can remove it from the face, whenever he wants to address the meetings.
Moreover, the chief minister seems to have realised that shawl would give him a dignified look and also a special identity!

The actor took to social media on Saturday to share his philosophy towards life during the reflecting time while being paralysed at home. SRK also shared a candid image of himself.
“Lockdown lessons…That we have been living far beyond our exigencies, most of which don’t really matter as much as we thought they did. That we really don’t need (emotionally) more people around us than the ones we feel like talking to while we are locked up. That we can stop the clock for a bit and reimagine our lives when the rush to acquire false securities is peeled away from us. That we can laugh with those we fought so hard…and know that our ideas weren’t actually any bigger than theirs. And above all, love is still worth it, no matter what anyone else tells you!”
Many netizens got awe inspired by reading the King khan’s lesson and shared heart felt thanks to the star along with many actors who gave him a warm reply.

Jagan To Allow Malls, Restaurants?
If YSR Congress party president and Andhra Pradesh chief minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy has his way, the state government might throw open malls and restaurants in the state, of course, with certain restrictions.
Jagan, who held a review meeting with senior officials, discussed the exit plan to be implemented for controlling the spread of the virus.
He asked them to come up with a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for preventing, containing and minimizing the spread of coronavirus, especially in the crowd-pulling spaces like malls and restaurants.
The SOP should be prepared in tune with the lockdown guidelines and the officials should focus on creating awareness on safety measures.
He suggested that the commercial establishments should themselves take initiative in ensuring safety measures such as maintaining of physical distancing and wearing of masks etc.
Jagan stressed the need for allying fears of the public towards COVID-19 and ensure that there was no stigma attached to the disease.
He directed the officials to create awareness among people and encourage them to voluntarily come forward for testing without any fear.
He asked the officials to distribute pamphlets to every house and educate them on coming forward with confidence rather than avoiding it.
Huge blow for China! India to emerge as Super Power because of COVID-19?
No one would have thought that an invisible micro-organism shakes the entire world and collapses the economy of the world countries. But it has happened and due to this deadly COVID-19 attack and even a Super Power like America couldn’t avoid this damage.
On the other side, majority of the people think that China, being the homeland for this virus outbreak betrayed the entire world with this COVID-19 pandemic. So, many big companies want to shift their base from that country at this crucial juncture. Earlier, Trump clarified that many big American Companies are returning to their country and are leaving China.
Most recently, the mobile manufacturing company LAVA made its way out of China and is planning to establish their base in India with an investment of Rs.800 crores. This will happen in the coming five years. With this encouragement, the Indian government is urging the state governments to facilitate the multinational companies that are leaving China by providing them the required lands to establish their base.
For many companies, India is being considered as the only reliable option after they leave China. Already many companies have announced that the products they manufacture in India will be exported to China and the Indian government is looking to give tax relaxations for about 10 years for the companies which would establish their base in the sub-continent.
So, India may emerge as a superpower in the upcoming years due to this COVID-19 effect and all we need is to take care of the economy before this lockdown comes to an end and manage its after-effects efficiently. Let’s see how it goes.
Pic Talk: Deepika & Aamir Khan On January 1st, 2000
The throwbacks are always interesting and if they are to decades back, they are not to be missed. Superstar actress Deepika Padukone brings back a picture from her memory lane, that has Aamir Khan with Padukone family on January 1st, 2000.
Deepika Padukone shared a picture of her when she was 13 years old in 2000 at Bollywood’s biggest star Aamir Khan’s house then. Deepika funnily admits she looked awkward and also revealed that Aamir Khan was having lunch, precisely curd rice which he did not offer and always hungry Deepika did not ask for.
That’s an interesting throwback of Deepika Padukone with family. Aamir Khan too looked as smart as ever, probably between Mann, Mela, Lagaan and Dil Chahta Hai times. Wait, What? Curd rice for lunch on the first day of a new year? Well, that’s Aamir Khan.
