Rumour: Complaint On Prabhas Taken Lightly

July 30, 2019

There will be issues popping up between directors, actors and producers at various times, and to facilitate the discussion we have unions like Movie Artists Association, Directors Association and Producers Union. There are many other unions too, but sometimes these unions simply cover up some major news too.

A week ago, we hear that a couple of assistant directors who are working on Prabhas’ Saaho are said to have approached the Telugu Film Directors Association with a unique complaint. As per the word, Saaho makers under the instructions of Prabhas are said to have roped in more Assistant Directors (ADs) from Mumbai but not from Tollywood.

Complaining that they are losing livelihood if ADs are also imported from Bollywood, like how they get heroines and character artists, couple of persons are said to have turned up with proofs. But the Chief Members of the association have pacified them by saying that Saaho is a big film and Prabhas is trying to take it to a national level with all the might. And they have asked these Telugu ADs to cool down.

Well, acquiring talents from various languages will not be an issue for sure, but local talents should be equally encouraged. Hope that is happening.

July 30, 2019

The real game of Bigg Boss stars when the contestants open in the confession room about other contestants. And when they nominate, though the contestant’s voice is not known to others, the crores of audiences And this sets the game in motion, because the audience will now take sides based on the inner-self of these contestants.

Some contestants sounded cruel, some genuine and some innocent, but they are all having their own reasons to nominate someone from the house. Before nominating, most of them said, Himaja is moody, Varun Sandesh is aggressive, Jaffer is silent, Sreemukhi is dominating, Vithika and Mahesh are egoistic, Punarnavi has no self-control.

While everyone has nominated two others, Baba Bhaskar has created a scene by not nominating any and prolonged the discussion until Bigg Boss threatened him to nominate the whole house for the vote out. And that led to the choreographer nominating both Vithika and Rahul for the same.

With that, who was thought off as the big fish of the house including Sreemukhi, Himaja, Jaffer, Mahesh, Varun Sandesh, Vithika, Punarnavi and Rahul Sipligunj got nominated for eviction this week. We have to see whose fate gets scrapped off and who gets saved.

Except Mahesh, All Top Stars Congratulate Puri

July 30, 2019

Puri Jagannadh is back in limelight. He has bounced back with “iSmart Shankar” which is a resounding success.He once ruled the Telugu film industry as the number one director. But his last films bombed and his career and financial status were in danger.“iSmart Shankar” has changed his fortunes and all the leading stars from Tollywood called him and congratulated him.

He says, “I got calls from all the stars. Ram Charan praised me and my work. He called personally. Rana, Chaitanya, Akhil, and Sumanth too called me and congratulated me. Even though Prabhas didn’t watch the film, he made a call to my phone to express how happy he is with the success I got. After a long time, I have got so many calls from the leading stars.”

However, he didn’t mention Mahesh Babu’s name. Mahesh Babu didn’t call him or congratulate.Puri recently made comments against Mahesh saying that the superstar works with the directors who deliver hits.

He also said that he would not work with Mahesh Babu again as he has a character. This has created a furor.

Behind The Scene: The Proper Word Is ‘Benami’

July 30, 2019

Sivaji is a name that is quite familiar now to the people of Andhra Pradesh.

As an actor, he had a decent run before taking the plunge into politics. But, whatever goodwill he had was completely evaporated when he turned out to be just a TDP man who was only pretending to be neutral.Later, he made a complete fool of himself by coming up with nonsensical conspiracy theories such as ‘Garuda Purana’ etc.

Yet, people were surprised to see the kind of media space he got in prime channels such as TV9.It was then revealed that Sivaji was nothing but a stooge of Ravi Prakash and both of them were trying to bring the TDP back to power because of caste-affiliation.

On the eve of elections, Sivaji invited the media and gave a ‘power point’ presentation; the gist of which was this: ‘TDP rule is the only option for Telugus and voting for YSRCP is to be avoided at all costs’.It was a presentation packed with complete lies and earned the wrath of both the media and the public.
Recently, speaking on a pro-Kamma channel, Sivaji said he was being harassed because of political motives.

And here’s what he said, “Ravi Prakash (TV9) and I are good friends. Out of friendship, he transferred 40,000 shares in TV9 to me. But I did not want to take those shares free of cost. So, I paid Rs 20 lakh to Ravi Prakash.”

This means the great actor Sivaji got shares in TV9 at the price of Rs 50 a share. The proper word would have been ‘benami’. That would lend authenticity to his ‘fairy tales’.Otherwise, what kind of friendship would make Ravi Prakash offer 40,000 shares free of cost to this joker?

But it now seems as if this man will continue to irritate us on the small screen because the ‘yellow media’ have adopted him.

Rakul’s Career Heading towards Climax?

July 30, 2019

Rakul Preet Singh is nos making all the noise thanks to the teasers and trailers of Nagarjuna starrer “Manmadhudu 2” in which she appeared in a bold avatar. This is her big-ticket movie in Tollywood.

Even if this romantic entertainer turns out to be a hit, she is unlikely to see her career zooming ahead in Telugu films. Especially top young stars are not showing much interest to pair up with her.

Her choice of films is one of the reasons.

She committed blunder mistake of pairing up with senior stars like Ajay Devgn (“De De Pyaar De”) and Nagarjuna (“Manmadhudu 2”) who are in their 50’s and 60’s respectively.She has now been branded as an actress ideally suited for senior stars.

The other mistake she has committed in the recent past is signing up Shankar’s “Indian 2”. She will pair up with Siddharth who himself is struggling in his career. All these decisions are affecting her prospects. Adding misery to her woes, the new actresses are giving tough competition.

For Allu Arjun’s next film “Icon”, the makers are looking for several other actresses but not considering Rakul Preet Singh at all. They have almost finalized Raashi Khanna as other leading actresses are busy.

At present, she doesn’t have any big hero movies in her kitty as far as Tollywood is concerned.
Maybe she would become another Shriya who regularly gets to pair up with senior actors like Nagarjuna, Venkatesh, and Balakrishna.

Reel Buzz: Vijay Hits The Jackpot With Dear Comrade

July 30, 2019

Dear Comrade may not have lived up to expectations and might as well go down as an average grosser at the box office.But this film has put Vijay Deverakonda up there amongst the highest paid actors of Telugu Cinema.

According to sources, Vijay Deverakonda was paid Rs. 10 crore as remuneration for Dear Comrade.Producers were happy to shell out big bucks to Vijay after witnessing the mega success of Geetha Govindam.

Later when Vijay was sceptical about completing the film, they had offered thirty percent share in the profits in addition to the promised remuneration.Vijay took over the reins of Dear Comrade and decided to release it in four languages and also has taken care of promotional campaign.

The film has been a profitable one to its makers as the making cost was estimated to be around Rs. 30 crore including Vijay’s remuneration.Making costs were recovered through theatrical rights of all four languages and it fetched superb deals for digital and satellite rights too.

Hence, irrespective of its box office outcome, Dear Comrade will remain closer to Vijay’s heart as it made him richer than ever.

Bigg Boss 3: Tamanna Creates Rifts Right Away!

July 30, 2019

Bigg Boss didn’t waste any time to introduce his ‘special’ wild card contestant in the house.Transwoman Tamanna Simhadri entered the show right on the Monday morning when the contestants are happily dancing to the early morning song.

They were visibly shocked to see Tamanna Simhadri join the party, but they have quickly recovered from it and welcomed her in the house. Tamanna also didn’t waste to mark her territory.

After keenly watching the first week episodes she realized that Baba Bhaskar, Mahesh Vitta and Jaffar are the crowd’s favorites.

Tamanna tried to create rifts in the house by saying that Mahesh Vitta wasn’t supposed to apologize when Vithika and Varun Sandesh were at fault.

The housemates had put the fight behind and are back to being friends until Tamanna reignited it.

Mahesh Vitta who said that he would have reacted the same as Varun Sandesh if he was in his place and apologized to him has nominated Varun and Vithika for the same reason.

The young comedian is clearly influenced by the wild card contestant. Interestingly, Varun Sandesh has totally forgiven Mahesh and he didn’t even nominate him.

Eight contestants are into nominations this week among fifteen. Baba Bhaskar continues to behave like ‘Relangi Mavayya’ from Seethamma Vakitlo Sirimalle Chettu and safe players like Shiva Jyothi, Ashu Reddy are spared from nominations again.

Srimukhi and Himaja seem to be the main targets as they got five votes against them. Although the group looks to have become friends, inputs from Tamanna might cause the trouble.

July 30, 2019

BENGALURU: VG Siddhartha, the founder of the popular chain Cafe Coffee Day and son-in-law of former Karnataka Chief Minister SM Krishna, has gone missing from near a river in Mangaluru in Karnataka, the police say. He was last seen on a bridge over the Netravati river in the coastal town, according to reports.

The police have launched a massive search operation near the 1-km-long bridge; divers are scanning the muddy river. Cops on inflatable boats have joined the search.

Mr Siddhartha’s driver claims that the businessman got off the bridge and walked away.

Karnataka BJP leader Jnanendra told reporters the businessman asked the driver to wait but when he didn’t return for an hour, the driver got anxious and informed the police.

The BJP leader said Mr Siddhartha’s father is unwell and is in a hospital in Mysuru.

“I am very shocked that our friend, a very good man, who has given so thousands of jobs, is missing since yesterday night. All sorts of possibilities are there – might have got into another car, accidentally fell into water. We pray for his safety,” said former Congress minister UT Khader, who had gone to the bridge over the Netravati river to see the search operation.

Karnataka Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa visited the Bengaluru home of BJP leader SM Krishna this morning. Top leaders DK Shivakumar and BL Shankar from Mr Krishna’s former party, the Congress, also visited him. A large number of leaders and well-wishers have also gathered at his home.

Mr Siddhartha’s offices were raided by income tax officers in September 2017. He is among the country’s largest exporters of coffee bean. His family has been in the coffee-growing business for more than 130 years, according to his profile page on the website of consultancy firm Mindtree, where he is a non-executive director.

Which Post Comedian Ali is Getting?

July 30, 2019

Speculations are rife in the media and social media that comedian Ali is getting the coveted post of chairperson for Andhra Pradesh Development Corporation.

A senior journalist and producer even posted the news in the Whatsapp groups related to media men. However, there is no official word from the Andhra Pradesh government.

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy promised him that he would provide the right post for him.

Ali joined the YSRC party in the eleventh hour. He approached all parties before joining YS Jagan’s party. He wanted MLA seat but Jagan refused to allot a seat to him then.

Since Ali belongs to the Muslim community, there is also talk that he might get a post of minority welfare. We have to wait and see which post he will be getting finally.
