It’s All Over Now for Rashmika
Rashmika Mandanna, who is basking in the success of Geetha Govindam recently broke up with her boyfriend, Kannada star Rakshit Shetty. It looks like she has completely moved on.
Recently, when Rashmika was asked about the break-up, she was quick to put an end to that line of questioning.
She said, “It’s all over, and I have clarified that. I don’t want to talk about the same over and over again. I want to focus on my career and move on.”
Right after the success of Geetha Govindam, reports began doing the rounds on social media about their break-up. The couple dismissed them as rumours and confirmed that they were still in a relationship.
However, a few weeks ago, it was confirmed that Rashmika and Rakshit broke off their engagement due to undisclosed reasons. It is speculated that Rashmika wanted to concentrate more on her career.
Rashmika faced severe trolling and online abuse from the fans of Rakshit. However, the Kannada star came out in support of his ex-girlfriend. He asked his fans to let her be in peace.
Revanth’s Point-By-Point Answers To Allegations
Accusing KCR of stooping so low and making cheap allegations against him, Revanth Reddy has come out in the open today to clarify to the public. Calling KCR as Chillara and Cheap, Revanth said he is giving clarifications to people since he is in the public domain.
Revanth has spoken on the four burning topics.
1. Increase in Property Value from 2009 to 2014 from Rs 3 Cr to Rs 13-14 Cr
2. Benami Companies on his Banjara Hills Property (companies varying from 13 to 16 to 18)
3. Foreign Bank accounts in Hong Kong, Malaysia and crores of financial transactions through them.
4. Benami Assets
Revanth’s Clarification In His Own Words
Clarification 1 : Even before 2009, I had got elected to Legislative Council in 2007. Even then, I had declared my assets. In 2009’s election affidavit, the value of the assets declared were based on the government valuation during their purchase. Hence, I had declared the value of my assets at Rs 3 Crore. Whereas in 2014, as per the Election Commission’s fresh norm, all candidates have been asked to declare the assets based on the market value. As per the 2014’s market value, the value of lands and house were declared between Rs 13 Crore to 14 Crore. For example, if the Banjara Hills property was bought 25 years ago at around Rs 20 Lakh to 30 Lakh during the purchase, its market value in 2014 went up to Crores. So, the 2014’s election affidavit witnessed increase in my properties value.
In 2009, I had only shown the value of my Jubilee Hills plot. But when it comes to 2014, I had built a house in the Jubilee Hills plot taking bank loans. So, I’ve considered the market value of the house in Jubilee Hills in 2014 while declaring the assets in the Election Affidavit. Like wise, the agricultural land in Gopanapally, lands in Kokapet, Manchirevula, Vattinagulapally and in my native place Kondareddy Palle and properties in Kodangal all witnessed hike in 2014 affidavit due to mentioning of market value. All my election affidavits are in public domain and anyone can verify them. Hence there is no second opinion about them.
Clarification 2 : I had rented out my four storey building in Banjara Hills for offices who have registered their companies on that address. A few have been moved to other locations later and a few others were shut down due to losses of their owners. Myself, the building’s owner, is no where concerned to the business of my tenants.
Clarification 3 : How can any foreign national can own bank accounts in foreign banks of Hong Kong, Malaysia without proper proofs, documentation? As per their rules, a foreigner should have a job in their nation and have a property to have a bank account. Their laws and rules are so strict. I urge media to verify these basic things before writing baseless allegations against me. And having crores of transactions done through such accounts are false and fake.
I demand the national investigation agencies and the Chillara KCR & family to prove that I have bank accounts in Malaysia and Hong Kong. At least, I’d have felt happy if they had alleged that I own accounts in Swiss banks where any national could have account, quipped Revanth.
Clarification 4 : I have 7 brothers and 1 sister and if I include Seethakka, I’ve 9 siblings. Including their family and children, our’s is a very big family. Then why would I have benamis and put assets on their names instead of putting the assets in the name of my own family members?
My in-laws are very rich. They own multiples businesses and they had acres of lands in Hyderabad and elsewhere. They were into Kerosene distribution business and also used to lend money to farmers in those era. They were Crorepatis even before I was born. Their family owns several properties and most of the prominent lands in Hyderabad today were once sold by them to developers and developers had in turn sold them to buyers.
I’ve got married on May 7, 1992. Any media persons or anyone else could verify the properties of my in-laws before our marriage. Padmanabha Reddy garu, Jayaprakash Reddy garu, Swapna Reddy garu and all their relatives are all filthy rich. My father-in-law Padmanabha Reddy garu was wholesale kerosene dealer and he is national president of the Kerosene dealers union in those days.
PS :
After giving lengthy and detailed clarification, Revanth Reddy has took questions from media personnel and gave comprehensive answers to them. Revanth’s speech has given new boost to Congress leaders, party workers. Revanth also attacked a section of media for spreading wrong, fake propaganda against him, his family. He asked people not to trust such media outlets. He even breathed fire on a section of media folks for getting financial benefits from KCR & Co for targeting him. Over all, Revanth’s press conference is blockbuster.
Five Interesting Things Around Tamanna
These days for every little small thing to all the big occasions, everyone is taking to social media to express their feelings and cravings. Especially when it comes to film stars, that is huge.In the recent days, film actress Tamanna Bhatia has revealed more interesting stuff through her social media pages than letting anyone know about anything directly. Let’s have a look at them.
One: Tamanna shared a picture of her from the shooting spot of “Devi 2.0” where they are shooting in the beaches of Mauritius. There, she will be seen as both a modern starlet and also the dark coloured middle-class girl. But her picture from the beach is awe!!
Two: Like the way she shot for many magazines earlier, she posed for Wedding Times now and her amazing display of that sexy waist is catching the attention.
Three: She shared a picture from her upcoming movie “That Is Mahalakshmi” which happens to be the remake of super hit “Queen”. The look is so dramatic that few fans of the original might get hurt.
Four: With her pet dog Pebbles falling ill and getting treated, Tamanna realised that she shouldn’t eat meat from now onwards. She boasts a lot now about turning vegan.
Five: Tamanna hasn’t announced this, but she is onboard for Vishal’s next film, making it clear that she’s not going to give up anytime soon. Despite having no hits from years, she has half-dozen films in hand now.
Sye Raa @ 8 Minutes, 5 Weeks, 54 Crores
Megastar Chiranjeevi’s upcoming magnum opus “Sye Raa”, which narrates the tale of first ever freedom fighter Uyyalawada Narasimha Reddy, is turning all the heads now. After shooting relentlessly for some action episodes in Hyderabad, the unit has recently shifted to Georgia.
As the film needs some barren empty lands where the might army of Uyyalawada will take over the British, director Surender Reddy and his team decided to shift this particular part of the shooting to Georgia. We hear that nearly 150 members left from India to join this shoot as they are gonna film a battle. Guess what, the logistics and the numbers behind this planning are stunning.
This battle happens to be the climax part of the film and it will be nearly 8 minutes long. Producer Ram Charan, who has wrapped his Azerbaijan shoot and joined #SyeRaa in Georgia, is spending close to 54 crores for this sequence including that of visual effects. And it will be taking nearly 5 weeks time for the unit to wrap this sequence.
Well, if this film turns out to be a spectacle on the silver screen, then Telugu could surely boast a lot about its storytelling abilities on a larger screen in a fantastical way. Let’s hope all this hype helps Sye Raa join the likes of Baahubali.
Saintly Channel Banking On Sex Appeal Now
When all other Telugu channels are going after some modern lingo, its ETV News that struck to pure Telugu form. And when other entertainment channels are involving more glamour, ETV always restricted itself. But things got changed now.
The once saintly channel is now giving tough competition to other entertainment channels with programs like Jabardasth and Dhee. This comedy program and dance show respectively have pushed into big TRP slots many times. It looks like the bar is going to push much higher now.
After the 10th season of “Dhee” program got over, now ETV has come up with Dhee Jodi where there is a dozen of young girls and boys participating as couples to win the dance trophy. While these contestants used to go conservative with their dresses, from covering their waists to not wearing short clothes, now the things got to a new level.
Every dance sequence in Dhee Jodi is being quite sexy and the sex appeal of the female contestants is coming to the care. One wonders if the saintly ETV modernised itself and upgraded their views to become the voice of youths.
