Share


Megastar Chiranjeevi, a self-made icon who rose to legendary status without any backing or godfather, continues to inspire generations. Many of today’s stars openly credit him as their inspiration, having grown up admiring his journey and determination.

As he awaits the release of Vishwambhara and continues shooting for Anil Ravipudi’s upcoming entertainer, Chiranjeevi took a moment to share a heartfelt message on the occasion of Father’s Day. Remembering his own father, whom he called his superhero, Chiranjeevi penned a profound tribute:

“Fathers give us roots to stay grounded and wings to soar high in our lives. Remembering My father, My Super Hero and wishing a Happy Father’s Day to all the wonderful fathers of the world, who shape lives with their strength, wisdom and love! 🙏 #HappyFathersDay”

Chiranjeevi’s message resonates deeply, serving as a reminder that behind every strong individual often stands a father whose silent sacrifices and unwavering support shape lives. As we celebrate Father’s Day, his words remind us to cherish and honour these everyday heroes.

Fatima Sana Shaikh Clarifies Casting Couch Allegations

Share


Actress Fatima Sana Shaikh recently stirred discussions across the South Indian film industry after speaking candidly about her experiences with the casting couch. In a recent interview, the actress revealed that a casting agent once bluntly asked her if she was “ready to do everything” for a film role.

Initially caught off guard, Fatima said she didn’t know how to respond. Later, she tried to steer the conversation by explaining that she was willing to do everything required for the character, in terms of acting and performance. She also admitted that she pretended to be naïve to observe how far the casting agent would go.

Fatima also opened up about certain producers and directors in the South who, while not always direct, do speak about the casting couch in a manner that leaves little to the imagination.

However, the actress has now come forward to clarify that her words were taken out of context. She emphasized that she was referring to a specific incident and not generalizing about the entire South Indian film industry. “It was just one episode,” she explained, “but somehow it was blown out of proportion and misinterpreted as a sweeping comment on the entire industry.”

Fatima further stated that such issues aren’t confined to the film world alone. “Every woman, in some form or the other, faces exploitation. Be it in cinema or any other sector, these experiences unfortunately exist across all demographics,” she concluded.

Telangana Gaddar Film Awards Debut with Grand Celebration

Share


The inaugural Telangana Gaddar Film Awards ceremony was held last night at Hitex, Hyderabad, in a star-studded affair that brought together political dignitaries and stalwarts of the Telugu film industry. The prestigious event recognized outstanding contributions from films censored in 2024 and honored the best feature films from 2014 to 2023, commemorating a decade since the formation of Telangana state.

Today, producer and Telangana State Film Development Corporation (FDC) Chairman Dil Raju addressed the media, expressing heartfelt gratitude to all those involved in making the awards a grand success. He acknowledged the dedicated six-month effort that went into planning the event and appreciated the industry members who turned up to receive their honors.

Dil Raju extended special thanks to Telangana Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka, Cinematography Minister Komatireddy Venkat Reddy, and Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy, who, despite protocol allowing just one hour, chose to stay for nearly two and a half hours—demonstrating his strong commitment to supporting cinema and the arts.

In a noteworthy appeal during the press meet, Dil Raju called on the film industry to actively support and attend government-sponsored award functions. He emphasized that when such honors are bestowed by the state, recipients should make every effort to attend in person, regardless of their shooting schedules. Citing that Andhra Pradesh is also planning to institute its own awards soon, he urged artists to treat such occasions as significant and block their calendars accordingly.

His remarks were seen as a subtle message to leading stars like Prabhas, Mahesh Babu, Jr NTR, and Ram Charan, whose acclaimed films were selected for the awards but who were notably absent from the ceremony.

Dil Raju’s comments underscore the importance of collaboration between the film industry and the government in celebrating cinematic excellence. He thanked FDC MD Harish and all those who contributed to the success of the event, expressing optimism that the industry will recognize and uphold this shared cultural responsibility going forward.

With the successful launch of the Gaddar Film Awards, Telangana has set a strong precedent—one that promises to strengthen the bond between government and cinema. This initiative not only honors artistic excellence but also encourages active participation from all stakeholders in shaping the future of the industry. As the journey continues, the foundation laid by the Telangana Gaddar Film Awards is expected to inspire new opportunities and deeper engagement across the regional film landscape.

టాలీవుడ్ నుంచి రాబోతున్న ప్రతిష్ఠాత్మక పాన్ ఇండియా సినిమాల్లో ‘కన్నప్ప’ ప్రత్యేకమైన స్థానం సంపాదించుకుంది. మంచు ఫ్యామిలీ ఎంతో గ్రాండ్‌గా రూపొందించిన ఈ చిత్రం ఈ నెల 27న దేశవ్యాప్తంగా విడుదల కానుంది. భారీ బడ్జెట్‌తో – సుమారు రూ.200 కోట్లకుపైగా ఖర్చు పెట్టి తెరకెక్కించారు.

ఇటీవలే ఈ సినిమా ట్రైలర్‌ను ఘనంగా విడుదల చేశారు. ఈ సందర్భంగా కొచ్చిలో ప్రత్యేక కార్యక్రమాన్ని ఏర్పాటు చేశారు. మలయాళ స్టార్ మోహన్ లాల్ కీలక పాత్ర పోషిస్తున్న నేపథ్యంలో, ఆయన సొంత రాష్ట్రమైన కేరళను ట్రైలర్ లాంచ్‌కు వేదికగా ఎంపిక చేయడం విశేషం.

ఈ ఈవెంట్‌లో మోహన్ బాబు చేసిన వ్యాఖ్యలు విశేషంగా నిలిచాయి. “మలయాళంలో ఆల్ టైం బ్లాక్‌బస్టర్‌గా నిలిచిన ‘తుడరుమ్’ చిత్రం కేవలం కేరళలోనే రూ.100 కోట్లకుపైగా వసూళ్లు సాధించింది. ‘కన్నప్ప’ ఒక్క రూపాయి అయినా దానిని మించాలి – ఇదే నా ఆకాంక్ష” అని చెప్పారు. భాషతో సంబంధం లేకుండా ‘కన్నప్ప’ కి మలయాళ ప్రేక్షకుల నుంచి మంచి ఆదరణ లభిస్తుందని విశ్వాసం వ్యక్తం చేశారు.

ఇక మోహన్ లాల్ తన ప్రసంగంలో మోహన్ బాబును ప్రశంసలతో ముంచెత్తారు. “మోహన్ బాబు గారు sweetest person. ‘కన్నప్ప’ షూటింగ్ సమయంలో నన్ను ఎంతగానో కేర్ తీసుకున్నారు,” అని తెలిపారు. అంతేకాక, మోహన్ బాబు సినిమా కోసం తాను విలన్‌గా నటించాలని కోరిక తెలిపారు. దీనికి మోహన్ బాబు వెంటనే స్పందిస్తూ – “అలాగైతే నేనే మీ సినిమాలో విలన్ కావాలి” అన్నారు. వెంటనే మోహన్ లాల్ చమత్కారంగా – “అలా అయితే మొదటి సీన్‌లోనే గన్ తీసుకుని మిమ్మల్ని కాల్చేస్తా!” అని సరదాగా చెప్పారు. ఆ సన్నివేశం ప్రేక్షకుల్ని కడుపుబ్బా నవ్వించింది.

ఈ ఆసక్తికర సంభాషణలతో పాటు, ‘కన్నప్ప’ చిత్రంపై అంచనాలు మరింత పెరిగాయి. ఫ్యాన్స్‌కి ఎప్పుడెప్పుడా అని వేచి చూస్తున్నారు.

అమీర్ ఖాన్ దేశభక్తి వ్యాఖ్యలపై స్పందన

Share


ఇంకొన్నాళ్లలో విడుదల కాబోతున్న “సితారే జమీన్ పర్” సినిమా కోసం అమీర్ ఖాన్ చేస్తున్న ప్రమోషన్లు ఇప్పటివరకు అతని కెరీర్‌లోనే భిన్నంగా కనిపిస్తున్నాయి. సాధారణంగా అమీర్ ఖాన్ చిత్రం రాబోతుందంటే ఆడియన్స్‌కి భారీ అంచనాలు ఏర్పడతాయి. కానీ ఈసారి మాత్రం హైప్ లో కొంత వెనకడుగు కనిపిస్తోంది.

దీనికి ప్రధాన కారణాలు — మాస్ అప్పీల్ లేకపోవడం, పాటలు చార్ట్‌బస్టర్‌గా నిలవకపోవడం, ట్రైలర్ పై కొన్ని నెగటివ్ కామెంట్లు రావడం. ఇవన్నీ కలిసే సినిమాపై అంచనాలను తగ్గించాయి. అయినా అమీర్ మాత్రం తనదైన శైలిలో చిత్రాన్ని ప్రమోట్ చేస్తూ, మీడియా ఇంటర్వ్యూలు ఇస్తూ ముందుకు సాగుతున్నాడు.

ఈ ఇంటర్వ్యూలలో దేశభక్తి అంశం ప్రస్తావనకువచ్చింది. పెహల్గామ్ దాడి, ఆపరేషన్ సిందూర్ వంటి సందర్భాల్లో తన స్పందన లేకపోవడం గురించి అమీర్ వివరణ ఇచ్చాడు. తాను సోషల్ మీడియాలో ఎక్కువగా యాక్టివ్ ఉండకపోవడం వల్లే అప్పుడు స్పందించలేకపోయానని స్పష్టం చేశాడు. అయితే, ఆ ఘటనల సమయంలోనే ట్రైలర్ విడుదలను పది రోజుల పాటు వాయిదా వేయడం ద్వారా తన బాధను వ్యక్తం చేశానని చెప్పాడు.

పాకిస్థాన్ వ్యతిరేక కథలపై వచ్చిన ఎన్నో స్క్రిప్ట్‌లు తిరస్కరించిన అమీర్, దేశ ప్రజల్లో సామాజిక స్పృహ పెంచేందుకు “సత్యమేవ జయతే” వంటి షోలు చేశాడు. అలాగే గ్రామీణాభివృద్ధి కోసం పాని ఫౌండేషన్ స్థాపించి, అనేక ప్రాంతాల్లో నీటి సమస్యలకు పరిష్కారాలు అందించాడు.

సర్ఫరోష్, లగాన్, మంగళ్ పాండే వంటి సినిమాల ద్వారా యువతలో దేశభక్తిని రగిలించే ప్రయత్నం చేశాడు. లగాన్ సినిమాను ఎన్నో స్టూడియోలు తిరస్కరించినా, తానే నిర్మాతగా ముందుకు వచ్చి ఆ సినిమాలో రిస్క్ తీసుకున్నాడు. గత కొన్ని దశాబ్దాల్లో సినిమా పరిశ్రమలో, దేశ అభివృద్ధికి తనవంతు కృషి చేశానని ఆయన అభిప్రాయపడ్డాడు.

దంగల్, సీక్రెట్ సూపర్ స్టార్ వంటి సినిమాలు చైనాలో కూడా పెద్ద విజయాలు సాధించగలిగిన కారణం – అందులో ఉన్న మానవతా విలువలేనని చెప్పారు. పాన్ మసాలా యాడ్స్ చేయకుండా తానొక బాధ్యత గల నటుడిగా వ్యవహరిస్తున్నానని వివరించారు.

తనపై వచ్చే విమర్శల్ని ఎదుర్కొంటూ – “నా దేశభక్తిని ప్రశ్నించకండి,” అని అమీర్ స్పష్టం చేస్తున్నారు. గతంలో “ఇండియాలో భద్రత లేకపోవడం” అనే వ్యాఖ్యపై దేశవ్యాప్తంగా విమర్శలు వచ్చాయి. ఆ పరిణామాన్ని గుర్తుచేసుకుంటూ, ఇప్పుడు ఆయన అందించిన వివరణ మరోసారి చర్చకు తెరలేపుతోంది.

Aamir Khan Questions Constant Doubts Over His Patriotism

Share


Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan has voiced his disappointment over the recurring doubts surrounding his patriotism and integrity. In a recent interview, the actor shared his frustration, saying that despite dedicating much of his career to socially relevant cinema and philanthropic initiatives, some people continue to question his love for the nation.

Aamir highlighted that he has been involved in numerous projects aimed at nation-building, including films rooted in themes of patriotism and social awareness. He also hosted the acclaimed television show Satyamev Jayate, which shed light on pressing societal issues and aimed to inspire change. Additionally, through his NGO Paani Foundation, Aamir has actively worked toward the development of rural areas and the upliftment of communities affected by drought and water scarcity.

“Despite all that I’ve done over the past 30 years—whether it’s films, shows, or grassroots work—people still question my intentions. I challenge anyone to name another actor who has contributed in as many ways to the country as I have,” Aamir said.

Over the past few years, the actor has faced backlash on social media during the release of each of his films. A section of users repeatedly question his patriotism, often bringing his religion into the conversation and trolling him online.

Now, all eyes are on his upcoming release Sitaare Zameen Par, scheduled to hit theatres on June 20. It remains to be seen how audiences, particularly that critical section of netizens, will receive the film.

Michael Jackson Tops 2024 Forbes List of Highest-Paid Dead Celebrities

Share


Celebrities in showbiz are not only known for their fame but also for the enormous wealth they amass through various income streams like acting, endorsements, and strategic investments. Surprisingly, even long after their passing, some stars continue to earn staggering amounts through their enduring popularity and loyal fanbases.

In a striking example, Forbes recently unveiled its annual list of the world’s highest-paid dead celebrities for 2024 — and pop icon Michael Jackson once again claimed the top spot. Despite passing away in 2009, Jackson pulled in a jaw-dropping $600 million this year alone, largely fueled by licensing deals, music streaming, and most notably, the sale of rights for his musical biopic MJ.

This immense figure placed Jackson well ahead of other late icons such as Freddie Mercury ($250 million), Dr. Seuss ($75 million), and Elvis Presley ($50 million). Even more astonishingly, Jackson’s 2024 earnings surpassed those of most living celebrities. Global superstar Taylor Swift, bolstered by her record-breaking Eras Tour, brought in an impressive $400 million — but still trailed Jackson. Others, like Tom Cruise ($25 million) and Shah Rukh Khan ($20 million), couldn’t come close, despite actively managing their careers and businesses.

Since his death, Michael Jackson has reportedly generated a staggering $3.2 billion through his music and intellectual property rights. His journey in music began with The Jackson 5 even before reaching his teenage years. By 18, he launched a solo career and soon became the undisputed “King of Pop.” The 1980s and 1990s witnessed the peak of his musical genius, with landmark albums like Thriller cementing his global legacy.

Jackson tragically died in 2009 due to an overdose of propofol administered by his personal physician, Dr. Conrad Murray, who was later convicted of involuntary manslaughter in 2011.

Even in death, Michael Jackson continues to set records, reaffirming his unmatched influence in the entertainment world.

Unni Mukundan Steps Away from Marco 2

Share


In a surprising development, actor Unni Mukundan has officially withdrawn from the much-anticipated sequel Marco 2, citing an overwhelming amount of negativity surrounding the project.

When a fan recently inquired about the film’s release, Unni responded that he is no longer associated with the Marco franchise. The actor mentioned that while the series had initially generated excitement, the atmosphere around the sequel had turned “too negative” for him to continue. However, he reassured fans that he has something bigger and better in store — a project he believes will surpass Marco in every way.

Released in 2024, the first installment of Marco was a neo-noir action thriller set in a universe reminiscent of Mikhael. Unni Mukundan starred as Mark D. Peter Jr., a man who spirals into violence after the murder of his foster brother. The film, rated ‘A’ for its intense action and dark themes, was both a commercial and critical success, praised especially for its gripping storyline and screenplay. It became one of the highest-grossing films in the Malayalam film industry that year.

Unni has expressed his regret for stepping away from the sequel, apologizing to fans for the disappointment but promising that what’s coming next will make up for it.
