Sharwanand Discharged…What’s Next?
It is known that Sharwanand suffered shoulder dislocation while performing Sky Diving for the Telugu remake of Tamil flick ’96’. Doctors performed hours-long surgery to treat the major injury and advised two months complete bed rest to be back to normalcy. During this period, The Actor will have to undergo physiotherapy to get back his shoulder to the perfect position. Watching Sharwa with a bandage when he discharged from the hospital made public realise the seriousness of the injury.
Although he was advised bed rest, Sharwanand have to fulfil few prior commitments. Entire shoot of his upcoming flick ‘Ranarangam’ was wrapped up already but Sharwanand is yet to dub for his role. This is worrying Haarika & Haasini Creations. If he completes dubbing, Sharwa will have to take part in promotions as well for this August release. Or else, Makers have to postpone the release until he is completely fit.
The initial plan was to release ‘Ranarangam’ in August and ’96’ for Dussehra. Sharwanand is keen to honour this commitment even after the serious injury but Doctors suggested him to take complete rest for at least two weeks. ‘Ranarangam’ might release in August but ’96′ produced by Dil Raju could be shifted to Pongal 2020. If a hero suffers injury, The whole planning gets disturbed and the budget estimates go wrong. How much loss Dil Raju has to bear?
Viral: Rana Shamed Host For Demeaning South Films!
An Interview offered by Rana Daggubati to a popular YouTube Channel operating from North India went viral. Our Macho Hero didn’t hesitate to offer a tight slap to the Host, who kept trying to convey South Indian Films are inferior & stereotypical, with his befitting reply.
The Host claimed Mani Ratnam’s ‘Roja’ was the first South Indian Film she watched in her childhood. She added, ‘I grew up having a very stereotypical view of movies made down South until My Father forced Me to watch Baahubali. I had no clue what it was at that time. I went then and staring at the screen, I was like ‘Is this real?’. Do you think Baahubali changed the way rest of India views the South Indian Films?’.
In reply, Rana said: ‘I was just amazed at how dumb Indians are about the other States. Ultimately, Story Telling is the same be it a Telugu Film or Tamil Film or English Film. If I speak in Telugu, It becomes a Telugu Film. If someone speaks in English, It becomes an English Film. That’s exactly what happens anywhere in the world. But, We in our heads creates division…this is a Telugu Industry, that’s a Tamil Industry. Films of Rajinikanth are dubbed in all languages. Which means, There is actually no boundary to this unless you make one’.
Comedian Prudhvi Eyeing That Post?
Comedian Prudhvi, who strongly vouched for YCP and rallied for Jagan in 2019 polls, is now reportedly eyeing a nominated post in Jagan’s government. Talk in industry circles is that Prudhvi wants to be the Chairman of AP Cultural Association, the key post which had late Dharmavarapu Subramanyam when late YS Rajasekhar Reddy was the CM of AP.
Reportedly, Prudhvi has taken Dharmavarapu as his inspiration and has been trying to fill the void that was created due to his demise in YCP. But one has to wait and see, whether Jagan considers Prudhvi and felicitate him such an honourable post.
On the other hands, Prudhvi has been vocal about industry big wigs and alleging that the they couldn’t “digest ” Jagan reddy’s victory in AP. These comments of Prudhvi have been making him a news-maker and thus constantly get highlighted in front of CM Jagan.

After massive success with Majili, actor Naga Chaitanya is all set to entertain his fans with his next project under critically-acclaimed Sekhar Kammula’s direction. It is reported that the actor has been waiting for long to do a film with Sekhar. The film is said to be a romantic drama and natural beauty Sai Pallavi will be romancing Naga Chaitanya in this untitled movie.

However, the filmmaker has now decided to complete this film in a shorter and crisper time, ditching his usual long route. He is now planning to wrap up the shooting within 70 days and should not take more than that.

Prithvi Responds On Mega Heroes Banning Him
In the wake of rumours everywhere that Allu Arjun kicking out 30-years-Prithvi from his upcoming movie, already we have clarified that the comedian has failed to readjust the dates and that’s why he was left out. And now, none other than Prithvi gave his own version of the story.
“There is no truth in mega heroes banning me or avoiding me. In the first place, I wasn’t offered any role in Allu Arjun, Trivikram’s movie, so where is the question of throwing me out?” asked Prithvi, shedding light over the rumours. And further, he added another interesting piece of detail.
“Actually I’ve got my head shave in Tirupathi recently. Though I’ve sent my bald pictures to Trivikram garu, asking him if he has any role for me, there is no response from him. That’s it. But there is nothing like mega heroes banning me. Politics and cinema are different for all of us” he added.
Well, that puts an end to the speculation of mega heroes going into revenge mode on whoever that have criticised Pawan Kalyan and his Janasena.
Samantha Sets Eyes On All The Trophies
If 2019 of Samantha is anything to go by, the star heroine who got her workload reduced post marriage is all set to bring home many trophies. Some say that she made quite a good planning this year like how she has swept many awards earlier at the same time.
This year, Telugu cinema has seen Samantha in Majili already where she gave a top-notch performance as a loving and caring wife. Then in the upcoming Oh Baby, she’s most likely to clean bowl the audience regarding which the trailer has already given enough clues. Surely these two are some nomination worthy performance from Samantha we have to say.
Cut to Kollywood, she has Super Deluxe where her role as a cheating housewife got unanimous appreciation from all the quarters. That role might win her Best Supporting Actress nomination in the leading award contests.
And if Samantha’s 96 remake with Sharwanand also releases in 2019 itself, then she might get another nomination as well in Telugu award contests. That would make Samantha win at least some of the trophies quite easily and if she wins many, it is going to be a record.

Critics Hating Arjun Reddy, But Audiences Loving It
Other day, Arjun Reddy’s Hindi remake ‘Kabir Singh’ has finally hit cinemas and there are comparisons out there about the two films. However, the most important aspect one could notice is the difference between the critics and the reactions of audiences.
Many critics termed the film Kabir Singh as a misogynistic and cynical portrayal of a leading man who hires call girls and threatens them by a knife point, who abuses women, alcohol, drugs and colleagues as well. They ripped the film apart saying that portrayal of all the bad behaviours on earth as ‘passionate love’ is neither logical nor emotional but only a kind of perversion.
Cut to audiences, they are calling the story as a passionate rage from the poignant eyes of a true lover, and many got addicted to the film with Shahid Kapoor delivering a top-notch performance. Many of them have even watched Arjun Reddy already on digital streaming site and still loved Kabir Singh.
Guess what, even the second shows have registered 70% fill ups in many interior regions as well along with national multiplexes, and it looks like the film is up for a second biggest opening of 2019 so far.
World’s largest lift irrigation project inaugurated
Hyderabad: World’s largest multi-stage, multi-purpose lift irrigation project Kaleshwaram was on Friday dedicated to the nation by Telangana Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao.
Kaleshwaram Lift Irrigation Project (KLIP) was inaugurated in the presence of Governor E.S.L. Narasimhan, Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy.
The inaugural ceremony was held at the project site in Jayashankar Bhupalpally district near the borders with Maharashtra and Chhattisgarh.
Built across Godavari river, KLIP will lift the water to a height of half-a-kilometer. It is designed to irrigate 45 lakh acres for two crops in a year, meet the drinking water requirement of 70 per cent of the state and also cater to the needs of the industry.
The ceremony was preceded by ‘Japa Sankalpa yagnam’ at Medigadda barrage in which Chandrashekhar Rao participated along with his wife Shobha Rao. The couple performed various rituals under the guidance of Sringeri Peetham seers.
Later, the Vedic pundits bless the Governor and the Chief Ministers of Andhra Pradesh and Maharashtra.
KCR, as Chandrashekhar Rao is popularly known, took the guests around a photo exhibition and explained them the key features of the project.
The foundation stone for the Rs 80,500 crore project was laid in 2016 and claimed to be the world’s biggest project of its kind, completed in the shortest time.
The government is planning to lift two thousand million cubic (TMC) feet of Godavari water per day from Medigadda barrage. The project will start from July.
Claimed to be an engineering marvel, the project comprises 1,832 km water supply route, 1,531 km gravity canal, 203 km tunnel routes, 20 lifts, 19 pump houses and 19 reservoirs with a storage capacity of 141 TMCs.
It requires nearly 4,992 MW of electricity to pump 2 TMC of water every day in the first phase. The requirement will go up to 7,152 MW for lifting 3 TMC from next year.
Ramesh Gets Heavy Trolling On FB!
The four Telugu Desam Party members of Rajya Sabha chose to defect to the Bharatiya Janata Party and got themselves merged with it on Thursday.
Well, they have their own reasons for defection and they were very careful in not making any comments against TDP president and former chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu for obvious reasons.
In fact, Sujana Chowdary even described Naidu as his political guru and that he would continue to give respect to the TDP chief.
But, another Rajya Sabha member C M Ramesh had to receive heavy trolling in the social media from not only the TDP supporters, but also common people who were disgusted with the dirty politics.
Ramesh is very active on his Facebook page and till the other day, he used to post pictures of his activities in TDP, Naidu and his party programmes regularly.
On Friday, he removed all his past pictures and posted a new cover picture on the Facebook saying: “CM Ramesh, Rajya Sabha member, Bharatiya Janata Party.”
He also posted his big profile picture along with that of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, BJP national president Amit Shah and working president J P Nadda with saffron background and lotus flower.
Naturally, this angered the TDP fans and also common people. There were hundreds of “Rest in Peace” messages for Ramesh, indicating that he was politically dead.
Several others also said his defection was good riddens for the TDP and many others demanded that he should give up his Rajya Sabha seat if he had any morals.
Shocker to Naidu: Jagan takes over Praja Vedika
Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy has dealt yet another blow to TDP chief N Chandrababu Naidu.
On Friday, Jagan issued orders taking over Praja Vedika, a conference hall attached to Naidu’s residence in Undavalli.
Naidu has been utilising this facility after he shifted to Amaravathi to conduct party meetings, official meetings and conferences.
This facility was built by government at a cost of Rs 10 crore. The CRDA (Capital Region Development Authority) has built Praja Vedika.
Soon after Jagan became CM, Naidu had written a letter to CM requesting him to allot Undavalli residence and Prajavedika since he has no own house in Amaravathi and no facility to hold party meetings in Amaravathi.
However, there has been no response from Jagan so far.
On Friday, orders were issued all of a sudden to takeover Praja Vedika on the ground of holding Collectors’ conference on June 24.
Jagan will chair the Collectors’ conference on June 24 at Praja Vedika which is right next to Naidu’s residence.
Officials directed Naidu’s personal staff to shift their belongings immediately and handover Praja Vedika to government.
Naidu who is abroad for a vacation with family is already under deep shock after four of TDP Rajya Sabha members defected to BJP.
The takeover of Praja Vedika will be a severe blow to Naidu as it indicates that the government will soon takeover even his Undavalli residence making him ‘homeless’ in Amaravathi.
Nag, Ravi Teja trolled for Kaleshwaram comments!
Both the actors took to Twitter to praise KCR and KTR for the speedy completion of Kaleshwaram.
This angered netizens who took potshots at them for ignoring T Harish Rao, who as irrigation minister in KCR’s first term, played a key role in the speedy execution of project.
Netizens expressed ire at Nagarjuna for complimenting only KCR and KTR and ignoring Harish.
They alleged that Nagarjuna in his attempt to please KCR and KTR deliberately ignored Harish.
Netizens expressed anger at Ravi Teja saying that he should ask anyone in Telangana about the role of Harish in execution of irrigation project but he should not make such comments out of his ignorance.
Some netizens asked him whether Ravi Teja praised only KCR and KTR because they closed the drugs case booked against him.
Netizens said Nagarjuna and Ravi Teja did ‘chemchagiri’ for KCR and KTR for their selfish interests but Telangana society knows very well the role of Harish in Kaleshwaram.
Netizens questioned them why did they praise KTR who had no role in Kaleshwaram and said this exposed their “true colours”.
