Nani keeps everyone in waiting mode
Natural star Nani is someone who could get critical applause and rave reviews at any given time for his films. But the fact is, only commercial success at the box office speaks for a movie and that is what upsets this talented actor now.
With his last couple of movies including Gang Leader and Jersey not doing enough at the box office for the producers, Nani is said to be rechecking strategies. For that to happen, he has kept okaying films on the hold. Other than the current film ‘V’, which happens to be his 25th movie, Nani has no new film signed.
While Nani was supposed to work with Siva Nirvana after wrapping Indraganti Mohan Krishna’s V, he is yet to give a green signal for the same. Similarly, a love story in the direction of a newcomer is also kept on the backburner. Right now Nani, who has returned from South Korea trip, is listening to a story from Nandini Reddy, who gave him a big break with Ala Modalaindi earlier.
We have to see which film the talented actor will take up as this is the first time he has no films in hand other than the current one under production. Meanwhile, Nani will join V’s next schedule very soon.
ED arrests Chidambaram in INX media case at Tihar Jail
New Delhi: The Enforcement Directorate (ED) on Wednesday arrested former Finance minister P. Chidambaram after questioning him for two hours in Tihar jail.
Chidambaram has been in judicial custody since August 21 for his alleged involvement in irregularities in granting of Foreign Investment Promotion Board (FIPB) approval to INX Media during his term as Finance minister.
According to the ED officials, he has been arrested under sections of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) and will be produced before the court later in the day.
Officials said that the ED will demand Congress leader’s custodial interrogation to confront him with the evidences gathered in the case so far.
They said he will be asked questions related to kickbacks received by shell companies allegedly floated by his son Karti Chidambaram.
The ED has earlier informed the court that it had identified about two dozen foreign bank accounts, which were used to park kickbacks received from illegal favours granted by the former minister.
The officials said the financial probe agency was in possession of several email exchanges indicating communication between front companies where both senior and junior Chidambaram were the beneficiary owners.
They also said the Congress leader will be confronted with the statements given by at least 13 witnesses, including his private secretary, in the case.
Chidambaram was arrested by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) in INX media case on August 21 after 24-hour long drama. From the CBI custody, he was sent to judicial custody and the CBI court on Tuesday allowed the ED to question him in the case.

Pawan Kalyan’s TDP Lenience Exposed
Jana Sena chief Pawan Kalyan had been the regular target of the YSR Congress, for his kindness to the TDP, most of the time.
The YSR Congress accuses Jana Sena of coming to the rescue of TDP, whenever the party or its chief Chandrababu Naidu is in crisis.
The Jana Sena had published a booklet on 100 days of YSR Congress regime a month ago and blamed the government and chief minister Y S Jaganmohan Reddy, accusing them of a complete failure. However, he never did such an attempt in the last five years when the TDP was in power.
The other day, when chief minister Jaganmohan Reddy launched the prestigious YSR Rythu Bharosa scheme, Pawan Kalyan issued a statement, in tune with the TDP’s criticism, that the scheme had ignored several eligible farmers. He blamed the government for not rolling out the scheme as claimed.
He also found fault with the government for splitting the promised monetary benefit into three instalments against the promise and including the Central government’s share in it.
His criticism is being targeted widely in the social media by the YSR Congress ranks. They are questioning the Jana Sena chief for not issuing such a statement on the election promises of Chandrababu Naidu between 2014 and 2019.
They are pointing an accusing finger at Pawan Kalyan for not questioning Chandrababu Naidu on farmers’ loan waiver, which was one of the key promises of the TDP in 2014.
The TDP could not fulfil the loan waiver promise and the last two instalments were not paid to the farmers in five years.
His demand to the government that it should apologise to the farmers for alterations to the scheme is the major target of the YSR congress against Pawan Kalyan.
They question him for not asking the same from Chandrababu Naidu when the TDP chief failed to implement loan waiver.
Saaho and Sye Raa Failures Causing Troubles For Sankranthi Biggies!
Saaho and Sye Raa ended up as huge flops in Karnataka with buyers losing crores of rupees invested into these mega budget films.These films were expected to recreate the magic of Baahubali movies, but they turned out to be mega loss ventures in Karnataka. This is affecting the business of upcoming biggies from Telugu industry.
Karnataka used to be the biggest market for Telugu films after Nizam. But local buyers are not willing to take big risks post Saaho and Sye Raa mishaps.Business of upcoming Sankranthi biggies Sarileru Neekevvaru and Ala Vaikuntapuramulo is yet to be closed in Karnataka. Buyers are not quoting big price and producers are not ready to sell them for low rates.
Overseas market has already come down after looking at the response for recent movies and there’s a big dent in Karnataka market too.Apparently, Telugu cinema market dynamics are going to change with two of the biggest markets losing steam.
This is not a great sign for Telugu Cinema that has been working on making pan India films in large numbers.
After HC rap, KCR to open talks with RTC staff!
Following a serious reprimand from the Telangana high court on Tuesday, the Telangana Rashtra Samithi government headed by K Chandrasekhar Rao is most likely to come down a bit and initiate the process for negotiations with the striking RTC employees.
A division bench comprising Chief Justice R. S. Chauhan and Justice A. Abhishek Reddy asked the KCR government to give up its adamant attitude and call the striking employees for talks.At the same time, the court also asked the employees to call off the strike and attend the negotiations.
The court believes that people are suffering between the insistence of the government and the RTC unions.The court said there are many ways to protest and asked the government what steps have been taken to stop the strike.
The court posted further hearing to October 18. It asked both the parties to inform the court at the next hearing on the steps taken to resolve the crisis.Apparently, KCR has decided to appoint a committee of ministers and officials to hold talks with the employees’ unions in a day or two.
The Joint Action Committee of RTC employees’ unions also expressed its willingness for talks, but said the strike would continue till the solution is found for their demands.
FIRs of deceased RTC workers tampered?
Did the Telangana police try to tamper with the first information reports (FIRs) pertaining to suicide of two RTC employees?
The answer is yes, according to the Congress party. Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee 0fficial spokesperson Syed Nizamuddin alleged that Kulsumpura police were preparing an FIR on the suicide of RTC bus conductor B Surender Goud, stating that he had committed suicide due to ill health.
“The police were trying to avoid the mention of RTC strike and his illegal dismissal from service in the FIR. On my intervention, the FIR was corrected and family’s version was added that he committed suicide due to depression and financial problems caused due to his illegal dismissal from service,” he said.
Nizamuddin said similarly attempts were made to tamper with the FIR in the suicide case of RTC driver Srinivas Reddy in Khammam, he alleged.
Condemning the move, Nizamuddin alleged that the TRS Government was trying to downplay the incidents by tampering, manipulating or misrepresenting the facts. He said the same trick was applied in cases of suicide by farmers.
More than 4,000 farmers committed suicide in Telangana in the last five years. However, the local police was apparently directed not to register FIR in those cases or mention health and personal problems as the reason for suicide. The failure of crop or farm crisis was not mentioned as the reason in majority of those FIRs.
“By doing so, TRS Govt not only avoided payment of compensation to the affected families, but also suppressed the truth of agrarian crisis which drove thousands of farmers to suicide,” he said.

But the shoot of “RRR” is getting delayed. The latest reports suggest that it would continue till July/August.
What will Atlee do now? Will he wait for NTR or take up another interesting project as several other top stars are after him?
