Indian World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) wrestler ‘The Great Khali’ is going to debut in Telugu.He would be featuring in director Jayanth C Paranji’s upcoming movie titled ‘Narendra.’ However the details of Khali’s role is not revealed yet.

The WWE wrestler had acted in Hollywood films like ‘The Longest Yard,’ ‘Get Smart’ and others.Nilesh Eti and Brazilian model Izabelle are playing the lead roles in ‘Narendra.’This is an action thriller and the plot revolves around a boxing champion’s life. The first schedule of shooting is wrapped up and the film has India and Pakistan backdrop.

Bollywood music composer Ram Sampath of Delhi Belly, Raees, and Talaash fame is rendering music for ‘Narendra’ while Eshaan Entertainments banner is bankrolling it.

Amidst all the controversies surrounding her last release, Kangana Ranaut and her film, Manikarnika: The Queen Of Jhansi is being lauded by the audience.

From the phenomenal performances to the grandeur to the screenplay, fans and cine-goers claim that Manikarnika is one of Kangana’s finest films.

And seems like the diva’s film has found a fan in Tollywood superstar and legend, Chiranjeevi.

The actor who is gearing up for his next release apparently went to watch Kangana’s film twice in the theatres.

For the second time around, a report in Telugu Cinema reveals that the superstar took the team of his next release, Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy to watch the film in a theatre owned by Mahesh Babu.

The report reveals, “Chiru wanted to check how this period movie was shot.”

The actor also wanted to check if there were any similarities between the two films that revolve around a similar plotline.

In Sye Raa, Chiranjeevi has stepped into the shoes of Uyyalawada Narasimha Reddy, a man who rebelled against the East India Company.

Creating almost the same impact, the makers of the Chiranjeevi starrer released a teaser that took the fans by a storm. The grandeur of the sets to the magnanimous costumes, Sye Raa Narasimha Reddy has kept the audience hooked.

‘Mr.Majnu’ has totally collapsed at the Andhra and Telangana box-office. After an average first weekend box office collection, the film has started to collapse over the weekdays. Collections on day 5 (Tuesday) showed no sign of growth.

Its run at the box office slowed down drastically with the start of its first Monday itself.

Its collections on Monday were low on Monday and it has failed to show any significant rise in its collection on day 5 as well.

The film had received lukewarm reviews from critics who praised the film’s initial moments and slammed the second half.

Since it has good music by Thaman and no major competition from other releases other than Sankranthi holder “F2”, it was expected that it would do well at the box office.

But it is shaping up to be one of the biggest bombs in the recent times. This is the third flop for Akhil in a row.

As per early estimates, producer BVSN Prasad is seeing at huge losses.

Vidya Balan who was recently seen playing the wife of NTR on-screen has given a surprise with Daboo Ratnani’s calendar shot.

The Dirty Picture actress sets the temperatures soaring in a cleavage revealing outfit.

The 40 year old never had qualms over skin show. She has done some sensational photo shoots besides The Dirty Picture. But it is a surprise to see her continue the sizzling act post marriage.

Vidya’s shot in the famous calendar is definitely unique amid the poses of young and happening actresses.

Sai Pallavi was the most sought after actress a year ago and now things have turned upside down for her.

She was labelled as the youth’s heartthrob with blockbusters like Fidaa and MCA. Her craze was one of the biggest reasons for a mediocre movie like MCA to become such a big hit.

However, Sai Pallavi made some poor choices on the career front and couldn’t cash in on her rising popularity. Doing Kanam was a very bad choice.

She shouldn’t have played the mother to a kid when youth is going gaga over her. Padi Padi Leche Manasu also ended up big failure that the craze around her waned off in no time.

Sai Pallavi doesn’t have offers coming her way at the moment. Producers are not queuing up for her anymore. However, she has NGK with Surya that is due for release in summer.

She will be playing the female lead in Rana Daggubati’s period love story soon. Sai Pallavi will hope to bounce back with these films.

Buzz around upcoming film Yatra is building as it nears the release day. YSR fans are eagerly waiting to see the reception for YSR story especially after looking at the disastrous performance of NTR biopic.

Will the masses show interest in watching the journey of one of the greatest mass leaders ever?As Yatra gears up for the release, director Mahi P. Raghav is making sure to set the expectations right.

He says that Yatra is not a biopic, but a fiction told through his eyes.

“It is about YSR’s journey to success through what I have seen. I took cinematic liberties to alter the facts for the sake of drama. So please don’t see it like a documentary or a film with historical accuracy. I didn’t get into the details of YSR’s past before Pada Yatra,” he told.

It is about the change in a person’s perception after going on an iconic journey, says Mahi.

It is pretty clear that YSR’s death also has been covered in the film going by the lyrical video of the song penned and rendered by Penchal Das. So Yatra will focus on YSR’s thoughts and emotions during his iconic foot march.

Neither Jagan nor CBN have any significant role to play in the film.
