Operation Ravana Failure, What about Garuda?
Although Sivaji hasn’t named BJP, going by the terminology, it is clear that it is BJP which planned to gain strength in the South with Operation Dravida.
While Operation Ravana is aimed at Tamil Nadu, Kerala states, already the by-election of RK Nagar by-poll indicate a washout for the BJP. Instead, it has given rise to TTV Dinakaran’s team. After this poll drubbing, BJP is now planning to go with Rajinikanth who floated new political party. And political analysts opine that there is very little that Rajini could do.
Even in Kerala, it looks like, there is nothing much BJP could gain given that it is bastion of CPM. Now, all eyes are on Operation Garuda. The idea is to steal the power in AP just like how Eagle catches its prey. For this, BJP is seeking help from a new political party and a main political party.
With their master plan for AP is revealed, it needs to be seen how it will be executed and how people of AP would strongly react to it.
Flop Director to Launch Mahesh’s Nephew
We have already reported that superstar Mahesh Babu’s nephew, Ashok Galla (son of TDP MP Galla Jaydev) will soon make his acting debut. Dil Raju will launch the youngster.
With the involvement of big names like Mahesh, Galla Jaydev and Dil Raju, one would expect a star director or at least a successful director to direct the project. But, surprising all, a flop director has reportedly been roped in to launch Ashok.
Krishna Reddy, who made his directorial debut with Sudheer Babu-starrer “Aadu Magaadra Bujji”, the only film that he has directed so far, has been assigned with the responsibility of launching Ashok Galla as hero. Reddy had earlier assisted Rajamouli.
Actually, some other director had prepared the script of this film. For some reasons, he got replaced by Krishna Reddy. It is heard that Sudheer Babu recommended the name of Reddy to Galla Jaydev and Dil Raju, and that’s how he bagged the big opportunity in spite of having delivered a flop earlier.
The film will be launched in the first week of May.
