The first look of successful hero Nikhil’s upcoming movie will be out on June 1st. The makers of this film have released on the pre-look posters that has the tagline ‘Pen is mightier than the Gun.’

The film is based on the backdrop of journalism and Nikhil will be seen in the role of a journalist, Arjun Suravaram. The plot of the film stresses more on the current issues and how media is responsibily acting accordingly.

TN Santosh is directing the flick while Lavanya Tripathi is sharing the screen space.Sam CS is providing music and cinematography is being handled by Suryaa.

Very rarely we see multi-starrers coming from Telugu heroes and no one knows what is the reason for such films not happening. Unlike in Bollywood, our stars don’t team up with their fellow contemporaries to create miracles at the box office. Baring SVSC then and #RRR now, we’ve not seen such films.

Recently a report has emerged that Geetha Arts is coming up with a multi-starrer movie featuring Sharwanand, being directed by Srikanth Addala. A rumour has come out that Sai Dharam Tej is brought onboard to play the brother of Sharwa in this drama of siblings. Though the name of Sri Vishnu is heard earlier, Geetha Arts is said to have felt that bringing another hero of same stature to Sharwa will make the project bigger.

We have seen how things worked when Sharwa and Naresh joined hands for “Gamyam”, so even this film would get superior hype if Sharwa and Sai Dharam combination hits the floors. But now some snippets are coming out that this is not happening and director Srikanth Addala is tweaking the script to suit Sharwa and Sri Vishnu. But what could be reason Mega Menalludu is not doing this film? Meanwhile, Geetha Arts is likely to produce Saidharam’s next that is likely to be helmed by Chalo director Venky Kudumula.

One pre-release event is not enough to bring huge attention towards a movie, but Rajugadu is making sure that this event leads to their massive strike on box office on June 1st. Yes, Raj Tarun’s latest movie Rajugadu is hitting cinemas on 1st and last night the film’s pre-release event took place.

What made Raj Tarun kick start promotions of the film pretty slowly is not known, but his kleptomaniac acts on silver screen should click big time. In the recent times, this youngster emerged as one dependable hero for small-budgeted filmmakers. He scored some good hits but later failed to get at least big openings.

Raj Tarun’s last outings like Rangula Ratnam, Andhagadu, Kittu Unnadu Jagratha didn’t fare well at box office, pushing the young hero into the doldrums. He has now pinned all the hopes of Sanjana Reddy directorial Raajugadu. Producers and distributors are now looking forward to seeing if Raj Tarun will emerge as a minimum guarantee hero during this crisis hour as the trailer of the film is also partly impressing. If he emerges, then he will no be looking back for another few years. Else, his career will be in trouble.

To emerge as a minimum guarantee hero, Raj Tarun’s film should get above-average ratings in the first place. Hope the young hero proves himself with Rajugadu, which co-stars Amyra Dastur as the leading lady.

Finally, talented director Rajkumar Hirani has unveiled the trailer of his most awaited film “Sanju”, which happens to be the biography of senior hero Sanjay Dutt as told by him.

You call Sanjay Dutt a star, a drug addict and a womaniser who slept with 350 ladies including prostitutes, but he claims that he is not a terrorist. Despite the fact that Sanjay Dutt carried (actually accused of helping to bring AK 56 like rifles during 1993 serial blasts in Bombay) weapons illegally, one wonders the point he’s about to make through this film “Sanju”. And what, the trailer has got blockbuster written all over it with each scene and frame either making you laugh, think or turn emotional.

Raj Kumar Hirani crafted yet another brilliant output, this time the unbelievable life of an actor on silver screen, with the support of a top-notch performer like Ranbir Kapoor who has delivered another career best knock. Supported by other talented actors like Paresh Rawal, Vicky Kaushal and Sonam Kapoor as well, “Sanju” packed a total punch. Coupled with Ravi Varman’s visuals and soul stirring background score, the trailer just lifted spirits before reaching a new level.

Especially the scenes where Ranbir aka Sanjay Dutt is treated badly in jail and also his encounter with Sonam Kapoor for a mangalsutra inside a toilet is going to haunt you for a couple of hours. The film will be in cinemas from June 29th, 2018.

Picking right posters and cutting right teasers are the quintessential stuff to make sure that the footfalls for that film will be high. And misleading posters along with masala packed teasers are failing to create magic these days.

In the recent times, Ammaammagari Illu is one good film that touched some good points, though the film looks like a replica of Satamanam Bhavati on a whole. But to see Naga Shourya sizzling on all the posters and rocking in all the teasers has given a different colour about the film. And people who expected Shourya to do all the business has got disappointed post the screening.

Actually, the likes of Rao Ramesh and Shakala Shankar has taken the film on their shoulders in some sequences. While Rao Ramesh outshined everyone when it comes to delivering emotional lines, Shankar made sure that second half will not bite the dust as he is present. His comedy timing and comedy are pretty awesome. So adding Rao Ramesh to the teasers would have worked well for the film, rather just keeping Shourya and Shalini’s shots all over.

Ammaammagari Illu may not be a great film, but the film will not die at the box office had the movie’s crew planned everything well in advance. Right promotions and right reactions would have helped the movie to create some records.

It’s known that Allu Arjun is currently taking a break before finalising a story and director for his next. Spending this time with family, today he revealed an interesting thing while celebrating a birthday.

Of course, the whole of Tollywood knows that Allu Ayaan is the first baby of Bunny and he’s pretty excited about that all the times. But the star hero revealed that there is another first baby in his life. And it is none other than his baby brother Allu Sirish who turned 31 today.

“Happy Birthday Day to the 1st Baby in my Life . The baby who grew in front of my eyes from the beginning of my time. The one with whom I shared the maximum amounts of memories & secrets. My Baby Brother Siri . Happy Birthday“, tweeted Bunny, sharing a picture of the cake-cutting moment that happened at their home last night.

While Bunny is waiting to lock a project, Sirish has right now signed the remake of Malayalam film ABCD which is being directed by a newcomer Sanjeev.

It’s a season of biopics. After the biopic of Savitri, Mahanati, became a blockbuster and NTR biopic to be helmed by Krish Jagarlamudi, all eyes are set on ANR’s biopic.

Responding to a question on whether Nag would be fine with a biopic on his dad and iconic actor, Nag said, “No one has approached me yet. But I have my own doubts whether it will be interesting to people as there are no lows in dad’s career. It’s simple and plain through out. He led a very beautiful life and till his graceful death, he had acted in films. He acted with his children, grand children in Manam. It’s a complete life. May be a book on him would be appropriate.”

Nag has a point to say as ANR hadn’t embroiled in any major controversies. Nag also admits of having a strong connection to the date May 23. “I have not revealed to anyone before that dad (ANR) had first entered the industry on May 23rd. He had traveled from Vijayawada to Chennai on May 22nd night and reached Chennai on 23rd. So, he entered films on May 23rd. Interestingly, his last film Manam too released on May 23rd. Akhil’s debut on celluloid as an adult is Manam that released on May 23rd. My debut film Vikram was also released on May 23. These things force us to believe on dates.”

Nag said he is right now enjoying his phase of life and has too many films in pipeline. He says he has no fear of failure at this juncture of career and is going by his heart while choosing his scripts.

Admitting that Officer has no new Story, he said that the conflict point is how a police officer is appointed against a corrupt police officer. He said RGV has done good job and ‘sound’ is where he excelled and it stands out.

In the last few months, we heard a lot about #NTR and the biopic finally got new hands lifting its spirt up. After Teja’s exit, everyone is waiting for the right person to take up, and Balayya’s decision to go ahead with Krish is a stupendous move.

Until Krish came on board, every day there are rumours that Balakrishna is searching for star heroines to play the roles of Sridevi, Jayaprada and other heroines in this periodic drama. As Balayya plays legendary NTR, the makers would have felt that bringing star heroines would bring right colour for the project.

A highly placed source revealed that Krish has convinced Balayya to not go after stars for any role. The director feels that #NTR, the title, itself is a crowd puller and there is no need to overstuff the project with big faces. And also he felt that adding such faces increase unwanted expectations on those roles.

It looks like the recent success of Mahanati, where only relatively not-so-popular faces played some crucial characters to enact Savitri’s life on silver screen. Going by the reports, Krish will now scout and find actors to the need of character rather than roping some big stars.
