Chinna Jeeyar More Dangerous Than Naidu?

Share

Known for his controversial comments, social activist and chairman of T-MASS (Telangana Mass and Social Sciences Organisation) Kancha Ilaiah on Friday made yet another controversial statement, describing popular Hindu Vaishnavaite seer Sri Tridandi Chinna Jeeyar Swamiji as the most dangerous person for the people of Telangana.

Reacting to the allegations made by Telangana chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao that Telugu Desam Party president and Andhra Pradesh chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu had turned out be the biggest danger for Telangana as he was opposing Telangana projects, Kancha Ilaiah said Chinna Jeeyar was more dangerous than Naidu.

“The seer is a hard core Andhraite. But after the formation of Telangana, he has become the de facto ruler of the state. KCR takes any decision of the government and the party only after getting the approval from Chinna Jeeyar Swamy. Even when he assumed the chief minister’s chair in the Pragathi Bhavan, he made Jeeyar Swamy to sit on the chair first,” Ilaiah said.

He pointed out that even before launching the election campaign last week, the TRS chief had prostrated before Jeeyar Swamy.“The seer has been dictating every decision to KCR, including distribution of river waters between the two Telugu states. It is because of Jeeyar’s advice, KCR has created 31 districts and allocated crores of rupees to temples across the state,” he said.

Describing Chinna Jeeyar Swamy as Telangana Yogi Adityanath, Kancha Ilaiah said if KCR becomes the chief minister again, the dominance of Andhras would only increase because of Chinna Jeeyar Swamy.He will throw the people in the ignorance by conducting yagams and pujas and will virtually dictate the government,” Ilaiah alleged.

Revanth To Storm KTR Bastion!

Share

A couple of days ago, Telangana Rashtra Samithi president K Chandrasekhar Rao’s son and IT minister K T Rama Rao addressed a huge rally at Kodangal, the assembly constituency represented by firebrand ex-MLA and Telangana PCC working president A Revanth Reddy.

Obviously, KTR wanted to prove that the TRS is going to break into Revanth’s citadel in Kodangal. Entrusted with the responsibility of winning Kodangal seat by his father, KTR is making all out efforts to achieve the objective.The TRS is said to be pumping more than Rs 100 crore in the constituency, besides mobilising all its senior leaders into the campaign.

Now, Revanth has decided to pay KTR in his own coin. On Saturday, Revanth is going to address rallies in Siricilla constituency, represented by KTR.The Congress leaders are leaving no stone unturned to make his campaign a big success.Revanth is going to campaign for Congress candidate K K Mahender Reddy in two places – Siricilla and Yellareddypet, which are considered to be TRS strongholds.

In 2009, Mahendar Reddy contested as TRS rebel and lost with just 171 votes. Later he shifted his loyalties to Congress and again contested against KTR in by-poll elections and got defeated.In 2014 elections, Mahendar didn’t get ticket and now in 2018 elections he is going to be in the electoral fray against KTR.Party sources said Revanth will focus on Nerella incident wherein Dalits and OBCs were tortured by the police for opposing illegal sand mafia of KTR’s associates.

He is also going to highlight the autocratic rule of KCR and other key issues plaguing the state.Besides Siricilla, the PCC working president is also going to address public in Vemulawada constituency. Aadi Srinivas from Congress is going to contest against TRS candidate Ramesh Babu is a close relative of MP Vinod Kumar.In fact, the Congress leaders want to rope in Sonia Gandhi to address public in Karimnagar but due to her ill-health, the schedule has been changed.

The leaders from Manthani, Ramgundam, Peddapally, Jagtial, Korutla and Dharmapuri constituencies are also asking Revanth to campaign for the party.

‘Disturbed by how some communities are targeted’

Share

After working in a critically acclaimed film “Mulk”, which talked about ‘Islamophobia’ and dealt with other social issues, actress Taapsee Pannu feels happy and disturbed at the same time.”I am very happy with the way the audience has received the film but at the same time disturbed with the way some communities are picked out and targeted by the society,” Taapsee said in a statement.

The 31-year-old, who played a lawyer in “Mulk”, wanted to bring a change in society through the film. She said: “I took up this film to stand up for them and initiate a change. There were a few apprehensions initially about the character that I play, but I can now say with conviction that they have been put to rest.”Directed by Anubhav Sinha, the film features actors Rishi Kapoor, Rajat Kapoor, Neena Gupta, Prateik Babbar and Ashutosh Rana in pivotal roles.

As “Mulk” will be telecast on the small screen, Taapsee and Anubhav want people to understand “what film has actually tried to convey”.”I hope that with the television premiere, the message is conveyed and people realise it, thus taking that step against creating a difference,” added the actress.

“Mulk”, which released in August, did not get a smooth release as it faced a lot of backlash and criticism from people.
From the audience lashing out against the subject of the film to trolling of actors and calling them “anti-national”, the film was mired in several controversies.

For Sinha, making “Mulk” was quite challenging.

He said: “With the response the movie received during its theatrical release, I am happy to know that the Indian audience is mature and open to movies that are against the tide. “Making ‘Mulk’ was challenging as it not only addresses but also highlights the constant divide between the Hindus and Muslims. The movie is unlike any other Bollywood entertainer and was made with the intention to be heard rather than just talk about an issue on surface level.”

“Mulk” will have its world television premiere on And pictures channel on Sunday.

’24 Kisses’ Movie : Review

Share

The trailer of ’24 Kisses’ has generated great buzz as it showed many steamy kiss scenes. The online and social media buzz was huge.

Let’s find out whether the film is worth the hype.

Story:

Sri Lakshmi (Hebbah Patel), a mass communication student, gets attracted to a movie director who conducts workshops as mentor in her college. The director is Anand (Adith Arun). There is a book which tells that if a couple kiss 24 times, their love would thicken.

Sri Lakshmi falls in love with him after few kisses both of them go to Goa and make love. She later comes to know that he doesn’t like the idea of ‘committing love’ or getting married. They separate, six months later he comes back to her.

What happens next?

Performances:

Arun Adith as an art filmmaker with confused ideas and who has personal issues has played his role well.

Hebbah Patel’s characterization lacks depth. However, both of them have indulged in many steamy kisses. No recent film has such passionate lip-to-lip kisses.

Rao Ramesh as psychologist provides some laughs but his role is quite silly and his therapy sessions with Arun Adith are boring. Naresh is okay.

Technicalities:

The film is shot in limited budget but the cinematography is neat. Art work is also decent. The music is too arty.

Thumbs Up:

    Kiss scenes

Thumbs Down:

    Boring second half
    Pointless sequences
    Abstract ideas
    Adult stuff

Analysis:

The first thing that comes to our mind while watching “24 Kisses” is that Tollywood filmmakers are shedding inhibitions in showing lip-locks and filming them in daring manner. This is positive sign but sadly the kiss scenes are being planted for titillation rather than depicting romance between the pair.

As the title of the movie says, it is all about “24 Kisses” between the hero and heroine. First 13 kisses are showed in speedy manner and their romance is established neatly.

When the time for conflict point comes the movie completely turns boring with pointless exercise and many scenes border on semi-porn.

It begins with hero narrating his story facing the wall while a psychologist is listening him. It is first established that hero needs therapy, he feels lonely.

When his love story is revealed, we get to know points like, he is struggling to get funds for his next movie that deals with malnourished children and the other point is that he is attracted to heroine but has commitment issues.

Is this film about his attempt to make a film on children or overcoming his personal issues to unite with his lover?

The film goes in many directions and the hero speaks like Robert Mckee (story guru) and other aspects of filmmaking, philosophical terms, and also about the plight of poor children.

In between he kisses his heroine and we also come to know that he had sex with some other girls.

After a point audiences will lose the track of what is actually going on the screen? It talks about too many issues and indulges in kiss scenes for titillation and hero sings songs explaining kisses that he gave at various places and on various body parts.

Heroine also keeps searching the meaning of these kisses on various body parts. She writes the meaning on a piece of paper and ties the paper to a Rose bud.

The hero keeps talking about children and looks for funding to make a movie on kids but he actually is indulging in “adult stuff” constantly. The second half completely puts you to sleep with its nonsensical drive.

“24 Kisses” joins the club of badly made boring movies this year. Overall, it is a pointless exercise from a director who seems to be confused about what to make with this plain theme.

Verdict: Horrendous

3D Visuals, 4D Sound & 6800 Screens To Beat Baahubali

Share

One of the biggest films to hit cinemas after the bonanza given Baahubali couple of years back is none other than Superstar Rajnikanth and Shankar’s “2 Pointe O” movie. And this film is now going to release on November 29th amidst huge expectations.

Though it’s not a challenge for this Robo sequel to beat Baahubali series, the making costs involved in bringing out this film are pushing it seriously to beat that magnum opus. With almost 400 crores investment riding on it, there is no way than to beat Baahubali at the box office, for 2 Point O to push itself into a break-even mode.

Apart from the 3D visuals that are promised at various theatres of 2 Point O, the film will be releasing in 4D sound as well in some theatres. And then, it is releasing in a total of 6800 screens, to make sure that it will mint the whole of its production cost in the first week alone. If we compare screen count, Baahubali 2 was released in 6500 screens across the globe.

In Telugu states alone, now 2 Point O has to score more than 80 crores share to make sure that all the parties involved in distribution will be in safe shores. Though the makers haven’t sold the whole of Telugu version, it is being released by NV Prasad, Dil Raju and UV Creations.

With these big names around, there will be no deficit of theatres, but the film’s content has to impress audiences to make it big in this unseason.

Why This Channel Changed Plate Suddenly?

Share

This particular News Channel is popular everywhere for their upright opinions, bang on creations when it comes to sensationalizing news and for their political analyses. However, recently they have started supporting one particular party big time.

When many thought that this Telugu news channel will sail with another popular guy, they have actually decided to travel with a veteran. And now, for reasons unknown, they have changed their plate yet again. From last week or so, the channel is actually grilling the people belonging to the party they supported all these days.

Some say that the channel has changed plate because there is a change in ownership. Some of the shares in the channel are brought by a person who is very close to another political party. Hence, the management has to change their versions of political support and other editorial policies.

That said, just by the support of a TV Channel or a newspaper, no political outfit will come into power these days as it happened in the 90s. Because the power of social media is quite massive these days and before a news outlet comes out with their opinion, folks on social media do.

Film With Vinayak Will Be Balayya’s Last

Share

Nandamuri Balakrishna is currently wrapping the final leg of shooting for his upcoming film Kathanayakudu, which happens to be the biopic of legendary NTR. And then, he has the campaigning for Telugu Desam Party to take care of.

Cut to films, there is an interesting buzz about Balayya’s last film. No, he is not quitting films like other stars for the sake of politics, but he will be giving break to one particular aspect. Balayya will not be acting in films made by other producers from now on, and his NBK Films will be a partner of every single production.

We hear that except C Kalyan’s film that is likely to be directed by VV Vinayak, the Nandamuri star will not entertain any other producer to make a film with him. They have to partner with NBK Films to do so. Looks like Balayya has taken production seriously before the entry of his son into films.

Meanwhile, director Krish is planning to showcase the first rough edit of Kathanayakudu to Balakrishna very soon. Except for a few parts, most of the film got wrapped.

Another Wicket Down In TRS, More To Follow?

Share

With the elections to Telangana assembly fast approaching, disgruntled leaders from Telangana Rashtra Samithi are looking up to the Congress party hoping that they would have a bright future there.Close on the heels of Chevella MP Konda Vishweshwar Reddy, who resigned from the TRS and is all set to join the Congress on Friday, another senior TRS leader and MLC K Yadava Reddy has also decided to take a plunge into the grand old party sooner or later.

Sensing his plans, the TRS on Friday suspended Yadava Reddy from the party on the grounds that he was indulging in anti-party activities.Apparently, Yadava Reddy happens to be a close follower of Vishweshwar Reddy. Both of them are going to join the Congress later in the evening.

PCC president N Uttam Kumar Reddy said another important leader of the TRS also was expected to join the Congress, but it was postponed by a day due to personal reasons.“He is going to join the party tomorrow. Very soon, more TRS leaders are going to make a beeline before the Congress,” he said.

Gaddar To Dance At Sonia Meeting!

Share

Not long ago, revolutionary singer Gaddar had campaigned for outlawed Maoists calling upon the people to boycott the elections, which he used to say, had become a farcical exercise.Now, the same singer has undergone a complete transformation. Last year, he announced that he had severed all his connections with Maoist party .and joined the political mainstream. Not only that, he registered himself as a voter in his Toopran village.

While his son Surya joined the Congress party early this year, Gaddar also expressed his desire to contest the assembly elections from Gajwel assembly constituency, if all the parties support him. Though it did not happen, he announced that he would campaign for Maha Kootami candidates.

On Friday, Gaddar will appear on the stage at the Congress party’s public meeting at Medchal on the city outskirts, where former AICC president UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi will address a massive gathering.According to Telangana PCC president Capt N Uttam Kumar Reddy, Gaddar will perform and sing along with 100 artistes on the stage, appealing to the voters to vote for the Maha Kootami.

Though Gaddar has been campaigning for the Maha Kootami candidates here and there, it will be the first time that he would be performing in Sonia Gandhi’s rally.It is really a climb down for Gaddar from a hard core revolutionary to an ordinary political activist, working for a party which was responsible for killing of thousands of youth in the last five decades!
