‘Good Boy’ Ravi Gets Evicted From Bigg Boss
Ravi Krishna, who is a popular Television celebrity, has been evicted from Bigg Boss season 3. It is not a surprise as his elimination was predicted by many right after the nominations were out.
Ravi Krishna maintained the ‘good boy’ image in the house throughout his journey and didn’t provide enough content that is needed to attract fans. In spite of Nagarjuna’s suggestions and his father in law’s advice, Ravi couldn’t up his game.
Even the organizers of Bigg Boss had seen this coming and sent Ali Reza back into the house to maintain the ‘balance’ between the groups.
Ravi’s exit would have weakened Srimukhi group further if Ali didn’t make a re-entry. There would be double elimination in the next couple of weeks when Bigg Boss finds two ‘unwanted’ contestants at the bottom of the pack.
Vithika, Shiva Jyothy and Punarnavi are in danger of getting eliminated prior to the finale.
Even Baba Bhaskar is losing his fan base because of his passive play in recent weeks.
Meanwhile, allegations of Bigg Boss’s favoritism towards Srimukhi are fasting gaining pace with evicted contestants like Himaja spilling the beans.
The show might lose its credibility if Bigg Boss continues to be biased towards his preferred contestants.

Trade Talk: Valmiki Inches Towards Breakeven Mark
Valmiki aka Gaddalakonda Ganesh has slowed down in week days after a fantastic first weekend at the box office. Incessant rains in Telangana also affected its collections to an extent.
However, with no notable releases this weekend, Valmiki should go past the breakeven mark before Sye Raa arrives in theaters.
Gang Leader ended up as a loss venture for all parties involved. The film’s collections dropped right after its first weekend and didn’t show any growth afterwards.
It is yet another disappointment from Vikram Kumar, who is yet to score a hit post Manam. Even Mythri Movie Makers have lost their track post Rangasthalam.
Last week’s release Bandobast couldn’t even collect dubbing and publicity costs from the theaters.
It is the last nail in sinking career of Suriya, who has totally lost grip over Telugu markets. His market has drastically gone down compared to his Yamudu days and his recent films are not able to collect such meagre amounts too.
Stage is set for Sye Raa with no films showing any strong hold at the box office and absolutely zero competition in the coming days.
1.2 lakh students left Caste/Religion columns blank
While the world is busy with caste discrimination and privileges, here come a bunch of Kerala school students showing liberal attitudes. Nearly 1,24,144 students ranging from class 1 to 12 during the year 2017 and 2018 have left the caste and religion columns blank in their academic years.
They stated that they do not fall under manmade caste and religion and such mindsets are only growing numbers, positively. On this, Kerala state Education Minister Prof C Ravindranath told the legislative assembly of figures that the new generation is leaving the religion or caste columns blank during admission in school or college.
The new improvement has been widely appreciated by the Education minisster saying that it is happy to learn how youth is moulding their minds to a much better perspective. Also, education department officials admit that there is nothing that they can do if the parents of a child say that they follow no religion.
Being several years old, the caste system has always been practised in a strict manner. Hope the younger generation loosens the grip of these trivial systems very soon.
Ala Vaikunthapuramulo’s Early Promotions?
There’s nearly 3 and a half months time for Allu Arjun and Trivikram’s Ala Vaikunthapuramulo to hit screens for the Pongal festival. But surprisingly, the makers are already launching the film’s first single ‘Samajavaragamana’ today.
Even fans are wondering why the makers are kickstarting the promotions so early. Some are even worried that even though the team launching the first song so early will create the hype it may not sustain until its Sankranthi release. Just to compare, the makers of Sye Raa launched the first single just a week ahead of its release.
On the other hand, Ala Vaikunthapuramulo’s team is leaving no stone unturned to make the song a super hit. They splurged a lot of money and shot a special promotional video featuring composer Thaman and singer Sid Sriram. Penned by legendary lyricist Sirivennela Seetharamasastry, the song is sure to become an instant chartbuster.
Meanwhile, rumour mills are abuzz that Trivikram’s and Allu Arjun’s underwhelming track record over the past couple of years is the main reason behind the early song launch. Naturally, Ala Vaikunthapuramulo will be the underdog in the Sankranthi race, as it’s going to lock horns with Mahesh Babu’s Sarileru Neekevvaru.
So the makers seem to be expecting the song to create the required hype either to attract the buyers or instill confidence in them. Well, let’s see if this unique strategy of early song launch helps the film eventually or not.
Allu Bobby’s Debut Film Ready To Take Off
Out of the three Allu brothers, we have both Allu Arjun and Allu Sirish busy as actors. While Allu Arjun is working on Ala Vaikuntapuramlo right now, Sirish is scouting for the right scripts to happen. So what is Allu Bobby gearing up to?
Earlier there were reports that Bobby will be turning up actor in one of the film of Allu Arjun. Later there are reports that he is actually going to produce the films. Sharing his thoughts over the same, Bobby confirmed that he will be debuting as a producer first owing to the legacy created by grandpa by establishing Geetha Arts long back.
Already Bobby is getting ready to team up with Varun Tej for the Valmiki hero’s next venture where he will be seen as a boxer. To be directed by newcomer Kiran Korrapati, this film will have two producers, one being Allu Bobby and other being either Bunny Vasu or UV Creations. And this film will be taking off very soon after Varun Tej takes a break from Valmiki promotions.
On the other hand, we hear that Allu Bobby’s wife Neelu Shah is said to be insisting him to turn actor.
High Court in Rayalaseema? YCP minister Hints So
There is a huge demand to shift the Andhra Pradesh High Court to Rayalaseema region. Many leaders have demanded the YSRCP government to consider this and even threatened that they would launch a huge agitation if it is ignored.
For the first time an YSRCP minister has opened about it and he is finance minister Bugganna Rajendranath. Speaking at a government in Kadapa, Bugganna said the state government knows about the demand of setting up High Court in Rayalaseema and it is under our consideration.
‘Our government wants to decentralize the development and we are seriously in discussion over High Court displacement. We will take a call in the coming days,’ added Bugganna.
That’s a big statement from the finance minister and now the discussion shifts to which region will the government pick for High Court. With YS Jagan in CM’s chair, the first choice would be Kadapa district but there is a demand from Kurnool leaders too. At the same time, temple city Tirupati is also in race.
What decision will the YSRCP government take and which region among the four Seema districts will it prefer is a big question.
Sushma’s daughter fulfills her last promise!
Sushma Swaraj has made it to the top through a combination of charm, political understanding and hardwork. Being one of the most respected politicians in India, Sushma won many hearts with her impeccable work as External Affairs Minister. An opinion poll in Narendra Modi’s first term showed that she was by far the best cabinet minister.
After her sudden death in August, leaders from all the parties came forward to remember her praiseworthy work to the people. On the day of her death, infact just 10 minutes before she was suffered a cardiac arrest, Sushma spoke to senior lawyer Harish Salve who represented India at the International Court of Justice in Kulbhushan Jadhav case.
In her call with Salve, Sushma had asked him to come and collect his fee of Rs 1. Salve, who promised to visit on that day, was in for a shock after knowing that Sushma was attacked by a fatal cardiac arrest in next few minutes. But, the last promise Sushma made to the lawyer has been fulfilled by her daughter Bansuri.
Bansuri Swaraj, on Friday evening, met Salve at his office and presented him Rs 1 that was promised by her mother from the hospital bed. The picture of same was tweeted by Sushma’s husband Kaushal Swaraj saying ‘@sushmaswaraj Bansuri has fulfilled your last wish. She called on Mr.Harish Salve and presented the One Rupee coin that you left as fees for Kulbhushan Jadhav’s case.’
Varun Tej talks on his first kiss
Lakshmi Manchu’s new show ‘Feet Up with the Stars’ which had been streaming on Voot from Sept 23 reveals celebrities’ personal life, secrets and many hidden stories happening in their lives. The latest guest Varun Tej spilt out his romantic love life and spoke about his first kiss experience.
The tall and handsome said that he got his first kiss from a girl when he was in the 10th grade.”It was in 10th grade and I was only 14 years old. It was not exactly a kiss, but something more than a peck. Just touching and go moment. I have a bad memory. I vaguely remember it,” he said while blushing on his first kiss.
His latest hit Gaddalakonda Ganesh is wooing audience right now and his female fan-following has been increasing with every passing day. When Lakshmi asked about a memorable fan moment, the actor said: “When I went to a club with friends in Hyderabad, an unknown girl came and hugged me from behind. I thought one of my friends hugged and continued dancing until I spotted my friends before me. When I turned around to see who was hugging me, it was a girl. As soon as I turned around, she kissed me on my cheek and ran away. I freaked out a little. I was too tall for her to reach. That moment scared me a little bit.”
When asked about how many girls have proposed to him so far, Varun Tej said: “People are always in a misconception that an actor would get a countless number of proposals. That’s not true. I suppose I didn’t leave much scope. I haven’t received a lot of proposals in my life.”
Later, when Lakshmi Manchu asked if he had any girl in life who touched his heart with a lovely or impressive gesture. The actor said, “Back in my college days, a girl surprised me for my birthday. She was then working in another city. That was a nice moment for me. Though I find many such moments later in life, that particular incident was the best.”
