Bunny Confused With Experimental Climax
Few decisions are always extremely difficult to take and that is what happens with the climax episode of “Naa Peru Surya” we have to believe. Actually, filmmakers can’t exactly say what exactly works in theatres and here goes an interesting snippet about this Allu Arjun starrer.
All set for May 4th release, Naa Peru Surya also daringly convinced itself to come up with a lengthier film. After Arjun Reddy and Rangasthalam, Bharat Anu Nenu also proved that 3-hours runtime is not a worry if the content is terrific. So confidently Allu Arjun and his director Vakkantam Vamsi also opted for this lengthy runtime.
Coming to the climax part, both Rangasthalam and Bharat Anu Nenu have some unconventional pre-climax scenes. And then Rangasthalam went ahead with a spine-chilling climax, while Bharat Anu Nenu banked on routine elements. And both worked. We hear that NPS climax turned out bit slow and lengthy and Allu Arjun is worried if the emotion will work out. They say it has rather experimental climax episode written and executed by Vamsi.
As of now, Bunny is confused that this experimental climax will give mixed results and is currently working out with his team to take a final call. For now, the team wants to retain all of it, as audiences at the moment are in a mood for change.
Rape of Minor: Asaram Sentenced Life

After hearing the judgement, Asaram broke down.
The other two convicted accused Shiva, Shilpi have been penalized Rs 10 lakh each along with 20 years in jail. Other two accused Sharad and Prakash have been acquitted.
Asaram was arrested in Indore and brought to Jodhpur on September 1, 2013. He is under judicial custody since September 2, 2013. The chargesheet against Asaram and four other co-accused Shiva, Shilpi, Sharad and Prakash was filed by the police on November 6, 2013 under various sections of the POSCO Act, Juvenile Justice Act and IPC.
The victim had said in her complaint that Asaram called her to his ashram in Manai area near Jodhpur and raped her on the night of August 15, 2013. Final arguments in the case had been completed by the special court for SC/ST cases on April 7 and the court had kept the order reserved for today (Apr 25).
Tamanna Is Not An Item, But A Warrior
Despite the fact that some big films are not coming her way, milky siren Tamanna is still the most sought after heroine for some big stars. Due to lack of talented beauties who fit well alongside them, some big stars still want her to be their leading lady.
Forget about those leading lady roles, but Tamanna is ready to take up guest roles as well in case if the offer comes from a big star. That’s how she ended up in “Sye Raa” of Megastar Chiranjeevi, a film that is being weaved around the life and times of first ever known freedom fighter Uyyalawada Narasimha Reddy.
The moment we broke the news of Tamanna’s entry into this project, many wondered if she’s going to do an item song as Chiranjeevi publicly praised her dances and glamorous looks at Rachha audio launch. But we’ve first-hand information that she will be seen as a warrior in the movie.
“Forget about songs in the film, but in Sye Raa her role will look like that of an extension to her role of Avantika in Baahubali. Tamanna will be seen as a warrior who sacrifices her life for Uyyalawada in the movie” says a source in the know.
Such a huge casting including Megastar Chiru, Amitabh Bachchan, Jagapathi Babu, Tamanna, Nayantara and Vijay Sethupathi is surely making this “Sye Raa” bigger than the biggest. The film is bankrolled by Konidela Productions and directed by Surender Reddy.
When Anushka Slipped Into Hubby’s T-Shirt
Despite the fact that some games of Royal Challengers Bangalore are not doing well, hottie Anushka Sharma is making sure that she catches some of those games of husband Virat Kohli. And then, she stuns onlookers with the kinds of tee-shirts she wears.
Like many of those urbane couples do, even Anushka loves to wear tee-shirts of Virat Kohli. While many do that at home, our hottie makes sure that she takes a stroll in the streets while slipped into Team India captain’s slick wear. Other day also, Anushka appeared in a black sleeveless tee-shirt at the airport, which was worn by Virat a few weeks ago. Earlier she appeared in the white coloured gym t-shirts of Virat. With both being slim and sleek, looks like there is no ‘size’ issue for them.
Currently, Anushka is shooting for ‘Sui Dhaaga’ with Varun Dhawan and ‘Zero’ with Shah Rukh Khan and has three more big films in her kitty. Apart from cheering for her husband whenever time permits, she’s also giving the message that married actresses need not quite the showbiz.
Mahesh’s Baava Behind CM Bharat’s Lingo
“Madam Speaker” is one word that stunned the whole of “Bharat Anu Nenu” lovers. Because the way Mahesh Babu uttered this as Chief Minister Bharat Ram in the Koratala Siva directorial that is shaking box office at the moment.
While one could understand that the English slang like the UK raised citizen is quite interesting but one would wonder where he would he got that lingo of a politician from. Especially the way he uttered Madam Speaker is damn striking. And here comes Superstar decoding that.
“Actually I’ve watched a lot of parliament speeches of my brother in lay Jayadeva Galla. I’ve noticed that he’s calling Speaker as ‘Madam Speaker’ and liked it instantly. Basing on that, we’ve developed this ling for CM Bharat” he revealed, talking about those particular lines. “We’ve also seen certain parliamentary proceedings of UK to find out how MPs of that country actually address things” he added.
All this research that was done by both Mahesh Babu and his director Koratala Siva are working big time in favour of Bharat Anu Nenu. If you want any witness of that, check the box office collections once.
Mega Menalludu Took Another Mass Raja’s Leftover
Today event at 4 pm, we have Sai Dharam Tej’s latest movie first look coming out. LIke the way Allu Arjun called it ‘First Impact’ and Mahesh Babu called it ‘First Oath’, now Mega Menalludu is calling his film’s first look as “First Sight”.
An interesting discussion is that actually, Karunakaran has first narrated the story of this film to Raviteja. When the mass hero asked the director to made certain changes to suit his mass image, the director refused to budge. And that led the director to approach an alternate hero.
As Karunakaran delivered some terrific love stories like Tholiprema and Happy for the mega family, Sai Dharam has signalled green for the director without asking for any changes. While that’s a move that could be judged good or bad only after the film’s release, fans feel that the leftover stories of Raviteja are not working well for their heartthrob.
Apparently, Sai Dharam took projects like Jawan and Intteligent which are both rejected by Raviteja. While writer BVS Ravi narrated Jawan to mass raja as they are very close friends, the hero simply rejected the movie. Similarly, Vinayak also wanted to repeat a Krishna like combo with Raviteja but the story written by Akula Siva hasn’t impressed him.
And those two projects left Sai Dharam scoring biggest flops of her career. That’s the worry of his fans now.
Coming Soon: Pawan Kalyan’s JTV ?
Needless to say, almost all the leading political parties in Andhra Pradesh have their own mouthpieces. While the likes of Telugudesam party don’t themselves have own media houses, YSR Congress and some socialist parties do have their own outlets. Finally, it looks like even Pawan Kalyan also identified that need for Janasena to have its ‘supporting’ mouthpiece.
Though the name of the media house is not finalised, reports are coming that Pawan Kalyan is all set for the inauguration of JTV. With few of his NRI supporters and couple of noted industrialists from Andhra Pradesh investing big time, this new Telugu news channel is all set to come up. Though they won’t use either Pawan Kalyan’s name or invite him for the launching ceremony, the central agenda of the channel is to promote Janasena and its views.
Already a couple of TV channels like AP24X7 are openly coming out in support of Janasena while the likes of NTV and 10TV are also doing good. Now it looks like JTV will be added to this group to make sure that Pawan Kalyan will have his say and superiority in the media space.
The latest buzz is that few big journalists and popular anchors are all set to join this TV channel for which recruitment’s are already underway.
ABN RK Sends Legal Notice To Pawan Kalyan
Calling that Janasena President Pawan Kalyan is making baseless allegations against him, ABN MD Radha Krishna has now sent legal notices to the actor-politician treading in the lines of Srini Raju of TV9.
In his notice, RK stated that Pawan is spreading malicious words about him for his political benefits but nothing else. RK mentioned that Pawan’s tweets are instigating his fans to attack ABN reporters, vans and other properties. He demanded that Pawan Kalyan should remove the tweets and tender an open apology as well. Otherwise, he threatened the Janasena leader of civil, criminal and defamation suits.
In the view of Pawan Kalyan already saying that ‘tweets are personal’ and they will never have legal sanctity, we’ve to see how will he respond to ABN RK’s legal notice. But this entire notice thing gave an interesting twist.
Right from last week, not even a single tweet became a news bulletin in ABN like in some other channels on whom Pawan poured accusations. However, today while talking about RK’s legal notice, ABN showcased the tweets of Pawan Kalyan for the first time on their channel. Fans are rejoicing that in one way or the other, PK is always a content on the daily news.
Chandrababu’s Sensational Comments On Governor System
Two days after a long meeting (one-and-a-half hour meeting) with Governor ESL Narasimhan who reportedly, allegedly told Naidu to ‘support’ Centre, Chandrababu Naidu has dropped a bomb. Perhaps, like no other Chief Minister today, Chandrababu has demanded for abolishment of Governor system.
After a section of reports that Governor ESL Narasimhan advised Chandrababu to ‘tone down’ his comments against the Centre and not campaign against the BJP in poll-bound Karnataka, Chandrababu’s fresh comments against Governor and Governor system gained significance. Chandrababu has indicated that Governor should ‘stick’ to rule book and shouldn’t act as per ‘whims’ and ‘fancies’ of the ruling BJP. Further more, Chandrababu alleged that Governor ESL Narsimhan is “rallying” Opposition parties (read as Janasena, YSRCP) against Telugu Desam Party. Naidu has fumed over Governor for his “partisan” manner. Demanding the abolishment of Governor system, Chandrababu recalled that Telugu Desam Party has always raised its voice against Governor system and has been demanding for abolishing the system for well-functioning of Federal system. “TDP is always against to the practice of making Governors as the agents of the Centre from longtime. It is nothing but abuse of office,” said Chandrababu while addressing a large gathering in Dwarapudi in East Godavari district.
Chandrababu reminisced about Governor Ram Lal who was behind dethroning of then CM NT Rama Rao in August 1984. Naidu said Indira Gandhi had tried to use Governor System against state governments and tasted severe set back from the people. He indicated that people would repeat the same for Modi government.
Speaking at the public meeting, Chandrababu lashed out at Modi-led NDA for its gross injustice meted out to Andhra Pradesh. He said Modi has ‘cheated’ people of AP by not fulfilling promises made to AP in Tirupati, Amaravati. Chandrababu also said BJP failed to keep its vows it made on floor of the parliament during AP Reorganization Act and also its promises it made in its manifesto.
Meanwhile, Governor Narasimhan has left to New Delhi yesterday to meet PM Narendra Modi and Home Minister Rajnath Singh on Wednesday (Today). With this, Chandrababu’s comments on Governor System and Narsimhan grabbed attention of national media thus pushing BJP into soup.
