Sunny Leone Getting More Than A Kajal
In the recent times, if there is anyone who has collected a higher fee for a lesser number of dates given to a film, it is none other than Kajal Agarwal, says industry folks. For many of her recent movies that are dubbed and released in a couple of languages, she’s said to have collected nearly 2+ crores.
But if the price being paid to Sunny Leone is anything to go by, then definitely we will get shocked. Tamil director Vadivudayan is actually coming up with a special epic film that will have its release in all of the southern languages. Also, the film will be released in Bollywood too like a Baahubali. And then, Sunny is going to play the lead role of a princess in this movie.
Guess what, Sunny has quoted nearly 3.25 crores as a remuneration to play the lead role, though the shooting will be done only in the Tamil language. We hear that she demanded such huge sum as the film will be released in Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam and Hindi languages. In that case, the spicy starlet has outplayed even Kajal when it comes to charging huge.
While this Indian origin hottie from Canada is for sure a bunch of hotness and ravishing curves, can she do justice to her role by acting and performing scenes that need emotional quotient? Till date, she failed in that aspect. Recently she’s seen flaunting her curves in Dio Dio song of Garudavega movie.
Hyd Star Hotels Turning Hub for Prostitution
The busting of high-profile sex racket in Hyderabad, the other day, following raids by Special Task Force police on city’s star hotels have thrown light on the star hotels.
This is not first time though. Earlier when a former popular actress (well-known in Tollywood & Bollywood) was caught red-handed in another star hotel, the hotels have got alerted and made the rules strict for a while.
However, after a while, it had become common once again. The latest incident has exposed that the situation has become routine once again and a few star hotels are becoming hub for the flesh trade knowingly or not knowingly.
Two gangs – one from Mumbai and other from Guntur – have been running the racket in the star hotels luring the clients from top-class. On tip off, cops have nabbed the two key persons from each gang. However, many say that there could be several other gangs that were doing this sort of business in the city in star hotels.
Megastar Chiru To Promote “Hello”
Apparently, Akkineni Nagarjuna is leaving no stone unturned to promote “Hello”, the second film of his younger son Akhil, as he wants to hear only a blockbuster from the box office. And that is leading to various celebs coming on board for the promotions.
In a bid to increase Overseas collections and make those NRI audiences aware of the film’s arrival, right now Akhil is touring in the USA. The man who is helping this youngster big time is none other than Rana Daggubati, a host of Akhil’s tour in the United States. And now, everyone is looking forward to the film’s pre-release event that is likely to take place in the USA on December 20th.
None other than Megastar Chiranjeevi is turning up as a Chief Guest for this event as per reports pouring in. Already audio launch became a huge success in Vizag as both the tide of politicians and ensemble crowd at the venue made it lively. Now that Megastar is arriving, surely mega fans will join Akkineni fans on this occasion and make it a grand success.
Seems Nagarjuna is believing that if just two days before the release, if a buzz is raked up this way, then “Hello” will get positive hype and maximised opening. Earlier during “Akhil” days, Mahesh Babu turned up as a guest at audio launch as Nagarjuna attended as Chief Guest for Mahesh’s debut film Rajakumarudu’s audio launch.

Agnyaathavasi Audio: Master Plan To Stop ‘Power’ Shouts
Generally, at all ‘mega’ events, we notice some section of fans and attendees of the event shouting ‘powerstar’ ‘powerstar’ all the time, thereby disturbing speakers on the stage.
With some fans extending and intensifying their shouts even when Megastar Chiranjeevi was speaking, Allu Arjun has later stunned them all with the #CheppanuBrother thing. But still, the shouts continued and Nagababu also warned them. But that resulted in ugly fan wars among mega fans and the dirty linen got washed on social media.
Cut to Pawan Kalyan’s own functions we have seen how Trivikram himself felt uneasy to complete his speech at a Katamarayudu and A..Aa events as Pawan’s fans kept hindering him with their ‘powerstar’ shouts. How to control this now, as the buzz says Megastar Chiru will be attending today’s Agnathavasi audio launch?
We hear that Haarika and Haasini creations has come up with a master plan to counter this ‘shouting’ behaviour. Actually, they have distributed all the passes intended for fans equally to fans of all mega heroes’ associations. Directly the passes are sent to each hero’s association head and they will share accordingly. And then, passes directly given to exclusive Pawan Kalyan fans are said to have got reduced.
For that reason, some Pawan Kalyan fans are staging a dharna like a thing in front of Haarika and Haasina office, raising the slogans ‘WE WANT PASSES’. Seems like some fans didn’t get the passes at the end.
While this plan is to counter those shouting masters, one might not under assume these hardcore fans. Some say that as passes are not given to exclusive Pawan Kalyan fans, now shouts will get more intensified at the event. We have to see how it goes, whether the master plan works or not!!
Oops!! GST Joke On BJP’s Gujarat Win
Even after being in power for 22 years, the Bharatiya Janata Party made sure that they will sweep victory yet again in Gujarat. But the surprising point is that the party hasn’t achieved the psychologically strong three-digit figure in the state, thanks to Rahul Gandhi’s timely campaign.
Though PM Narendra Modi anticipated nearly 150 seats in Gujarat, finally they have settled down for 99 seats, though they will form a government with a majority. And as the numbers were declared other day, people started applying that GST joke to them.
As per a joke doing rounds on the web:
Amit Shah asked for 150 seats in Gujarat.
Gujju people gave him 99 after deducting 28% GST.
182* 28%= 51 ,150-51=99…
Gujratis Are Pakka businessmen!!
While this is just a joke and pun aimed at GST, the reality is that BJP should really think about one thing here. After 1985, this is the first time Congress has won such huge number of seats. In 1985, the Congress clean swept Gujarat with 149 seats but later it fell to 45, 53, 51, 59, 61 in the years 1995, 98, 2002, 2007 and 2012 respectively. This is the first time they tallied 77 seats also making the BJP fell down to double-digit nearly after 20 years.
Use Telugu Language: What About Them??
As the ‘Prapancha Telugu Mahasabhalu’ had reached to a concluding stage, already many politicians, educationists, celebs and others have jointly opined that when two people meet they should discuss in Telugu and children should be made to speak in Telugu at home. Good.
With no offence to all these advice, actually one should think about India also while thinking about their mother tongue. While we have so much love for using the Telugu language, shouldn’t we do that with buying Indian products? Most of the people who advised the above actually wear a Hilfiger or Armani watch, drive a Benz or BMW car and use iPhone to the minimum. So where are you using ‘made in India’ products while forcing to use mother tongue? One may ask what is the connection between productions and mother tongue, here is a small analysis.
To remember the Telugu language, you have to use it well. In the age of technology, only if phones and laptops are in Telugu and official communication happens in Telugu (like Chinese in China), we would be able to remember it well. For that to happen, our economy should be so stronger that we demand every product maker to use only Telugu (or Hindi in that case) everywhere. For such stronger economy, we have to use our own products rather than using all the imported ones. That cascading effect should be understood to promote mother tongues.
Meanwhile, promotion of Telugu language should be promoted first invisible industries like films where our filmmakers love to use more of English names as film titles than Telugu lines.
