Media Forcing Rajamouli to Reveal RRR details?
Filmmakers usually enjoy the speculations and gossips on their films, as that keeps them and their film on the news until they are ready to reveal the facts or updates. A giant filmmaker like Rajamouli may not be an exception from that, but of late his large-scale filmmaking and hype around it seems to trouble his work.
Rajamouli’s Baahubali’s leaked pictures, rumors about star cast and even the most famous ‘why Kattappa killed Baahubali’ gave the movie an added advantage of being on news for years, though his promotions were crucial then. But, Rajamouli is heard to be annoyed with unwanted stories and cooked up versions on media about RRR backdrop.
While Rajamouli chose to keep every bit of information linked to RRR under wraps as he wanted to maintain the suspense elements of RRR, these nuisance stories are heard to be forcing him to feed the enthusiasts with at least a minimal update now and then.
The writings about NTR’s chubby look with a hundred-kilo target and the backdrop of the pre-independence era may not be true and above that, these hypotheses make a hazard to actual story from connecting to the audience.
Rajamouli is heard to be thinking on rubbishing the rumors like he used to do earlier from his social media handle. We will soon know that if Rajamouli tweets strike the unwanted rumors forever.

Releasing Today: Four Movies Fight It Out
It is going to be a busy weekend for film buffs with four films clashing at the box office today.

This time the Bellamkonda hero played it safe by keeping the budget in check. Can Srinivas’s first attempt in a Khakhi uniform give him the much needed hit? The film has Kajal and Mehreen as other attractions to pull audience to theaters.
Next Enti starring Tamanna and Sundeep Kishan has grabbed eyeballs with bold promos. Can this film cash in on the ‘youth cinema wave’ at the ticket windows?
Sumanth’s Subrahmanyapuram looks promising from the outset. Can the veteran actor get back on track with this mystery/thriller?
There is a small budget film called Subhalekhalu, which is also trying out luck at the box office this weekend.

Telangana: Both TRS and Congress-TDP alliance claim mandate
Hyderabad: A day before Telangana goes to polls, the ruling Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS) as well as the opposition Congress-Telugu Desam Party (TDP) alliance both claimed to have the support of the people of the state.
As the ‘bitter campaign’ came to an end in the southern state on Wednesday, the incumbent TRS claimed on Thursday that it will win a landslide in Assembly Elections 2018.
“We are going to win with thumping majority. People are with us. It’s going to be a landslide victory. It will be more than two-thirds majority,” Deputy leader of TRS in Lok Sabha, B Vinod Kumar told news agency PTI.
He said the people of the state have lauded the performance of the KCR (K Chandrasekhar Rao) government.
The “Prajakutami” (People’s Front) alliance that consists of the Congress, the TDP, the Telangana Jana Samiti (TJS) and the Communist Party of India (CPI), is posing a tough challenge to the TRS, which is in the race for a second term in office.
The Congress party’s in-charge of Telangana, R C Khuntia, has expressed confidence about winning over 80 seats in the December 7 poll.
CPI general secretary Suravaram Sudhakar Reddy said they are confident about the alliance’s victory and defeat of KCR-led TRS.
Meanwhile, the BJP, which is fighting the Telangana Assembly Election 2018 alone, is happy that it has been able to make the Telangana battle a “triangular contest”.
The BJP had contested the 2014 Assembly Election in alliance with the TDP and won five seats then.
“Earlier, when the election season began, it was projected by both the parties — Congress and TRS — as if the fight is in between both of them. It was not a fact. But it was a propaganda to ensure that we are not in the game,” Telangana BJP spokesperson Krishna Saagar Rao said.
“Whatever may be the outcome, whether we increase our percentage of votes, or whether we come to power or whether we become a decisive force to form a government, either of these options are completely welcome for the BJP,” he added.
Deverakonda’s Dear Comrade Gets Major Overhaul?
Vijay Deverakonda who bounced back with Taxiwala after a setback like NOTA is being extra cautious about his career now.
As he is totally aware of his current market and following, Vijay is not taking any chances post Geetha Govindam.
He has realized that he can become the Rs. 40 crore actor with proper planning and execution.
In the process, Vijay has reportedly asked for major changes in his upcoming film Dear Comrade.
The film that was supposed to release in the first quarter of 2019 has now been pushed to last quarter due to a major overhaul of script.
Mythri Movie Makers that took two big blows in November is not getting carried away now. They know the potential of Dear Comrade and making sure to give it the best resources to make it a big film.
Most of the filmed portions have been scrapped and will be re-shot again, according to grapevine.
The film will now be made on a bigger scale given Vijay’s rising popularity. Dear Comrade is said to be a very different film like Arjun Reddy, which could become a huge money spinner if done and promoted well.
So, Vijay is taking extra time to get the output right. He is not in a hurry to do more films now. He is just focusing on stabilizing his market before stepping up.
