Known for her stint as a model in Hyderabad circuits, hottie Varshini Sounderajan currently enjoys her stint as co-anchor of Dhee Jodi that is being aired on ETV. Guess what, her cool charms on the TV show and her hotness flaunted through her social media pages now won her an honour.
In a survey conducted by a leading media house, Varshini emerged as the Most Desirable Women on TV 2017 of the year. Though she’s not as popular as motormouths like Anasuya and Rashmi on the TV circuits, it looks like her pretty charms have got as many votes as possible.
After debuting into films with “Chandamama Kathalu”, this Hyderabadi model is rumoured to have cancelled her engagement to a film director and is currently focusing more on TV and films. Many wonder how come this hottie has beaten the likes of Rashmi in no time, but she says, ‘its all the love being showered by fans’.
On the list, we have the likes of Vishnu Priya (Pore Pove anchor), Meghana Lokesh (Sasirekha Parinayam serial lead), Krithika Singh (Ok Jaanu serial lead), and Rashmi in the Top 5 places while Anasuya and Srimukhi settled with a 6th and 7th places respectively.
Responding on the prevailing political conditions in Karnataka where BJP formed government despite not having required numbers, Lalu Prasad Yadav and Rabri Devi’s son Tejashwi Yadav has come down heavily on Saffron party. Finding fault with the decision of Governor Vajubhai Vala for inviting BJP to form govt, Tejashwi Yadav has come up with an epic reply. Tejashwi Yadav demanded President to dismiss the incumbent BJP government through its Governor and invite RJD, the single largest party of Bihar to form the govt. He stressed that BJP has formed govt in Bihar only due to post-poll alliance. Tejashwi opined that the Karnataka Governor should have followed Bihar example.
Tejashwi, the former Deputy CM of Bihar, said his dad Lalu Prasad Yadav’s formula of a “Mahagatbandhan” (Grand Alliance) at the national level is the only way to defeat the BJP-led NDA in the 2019 Lok Sabha polls. “The Grand Alliance should be on the lines of Laluji’s formula to unite all non-BJP parties by formation of a Mahagatbandhan the like of which defeated the BJP in Bihar,” said Tejashwi. He quickly added that if a grand alliance was not formed at the national level, the BJP would succeed in its attempt to implement the RSS agenda.
Tejashwi also asked the Congress to give more importance to regional parties and their issues.
The Karnataka crisis has drawn the attention of entire nation. The Governor’s decision to invite BS Yeddyurappa to sworn-in as the CM despite not having desired numbers is under severe criticism. Already, Kumaraswamy had leveled sensational allegation that BJP is offering Rs 100 Crore and ministry to woo the MLAs of JD(S). It is widely alleged that Reddy brothers are behind the BJP and giving strong financial support to Yeddyurappa’s team.
On the other hand, Congress and JD(S) are also pulling out all stops to keep their members intact and if possible to increase their numbers. Already JD(S)-Congress combine roped in the two independent MLAs on their side giving a rude shock to the BJP.
Amidst this, naturally, all eyes are on the leaders who is splurging money on keep their camps alive and intact.
While mining baron Gali Janardhan Reddy and his brothers is allegedly funding BJP’s camp and going all out to prove Yeddyurappa’s majority, on the other hand India’s richest politician former Energy Minister in Siddaramaiah’s cabinet and Congress leader DK Shivakumar is said to be actively working to muster support to JD(S)-Congress combine. Shivakumar, who had declared assets worth Rs 730 Crore, said to be playing crucial role to ensure that Congress legislators won’t cross over to the BJP.
While BJP is claiming that it will pass the Floor Test in the Karnataka Legislative Assembly, DK Shivakumar countered by stating that he and Congress will ensure it won’t happen. With Shivakumar’s open statement that Congress is making sure BJP won’t poach its MLAs or the MLAs of its ally, this turns a major challenge for Yeddyurappa.
As of now, the two richest leaders Shivakumar and Gali brothers are the cynosure of all eyes in Karnataka crisis.
Scoring a brownie with “Bharat Anu Nenu”, director Koratala Siva became the on-demand filmmaker in Tollywood now. Like they wait for Rajamouli’s call, many star heroes are now desiring to work with this director.
Recently reports have come out that Koratala Siva will work with Nani after he comes back home from his holiday abroad. And this time the director is most likely to come up with a commercial film sans any social message. But suddenly there is buzz that he will direct Megastar Chiranjeevi. What is the possibility of this film happening?
Most fans of Chiranjeevi like VV Vinayak and Surender Reddy often desired to work with him and director Koratala Siva is said to be one diehard fan of Chiranjeevi like his uncle Posani Krishnamurali. When he expressed the same to Ram Charan, the young Turk gave him an offer to come up with a story that suits his dad whose shooting they could start immediately.
Without disturbing his looks created for “Sye Raa”, Chiranjeevi wants to finish another film in parallel and Koratala is said to have expressed the desire to cash on this opportunity. And being a Megastar fan, he’s said to have worked some storylines already and will narrate a couple to the Megastar by next month, says a source from Konidela Productions.
If all goes well, this film will be jointly produced by Ram Charan and a friend of Koratala Siva.
Telugu people in the US seems to be standing as good example. After showing their ire to Chiranjeevi and other Telugu stars in the US recently for not speaking for the Special Category Status, now BJP leader from Andhra GVL Narasimha Rao received the heat.
GVL had made tall statements very recently against Special Category Status and Andhra Pradesh. He had said BJP is “willing” to give the benefits “equivalent” to the Special Category Status but AP government is “not accepting” and alleged TDP government of hampering development of AP while BJP is trying to. GVL also warned TDP leaders to ready to face the consequences for fighting against the BJP.
Noting all his words and rhetorics, Telugus in the US gave befitting shock to Narasimha Rao who came to participate in a BJP prorgam conducted in Edion of New Jersey state in the US. People who attended the event have questioned GVL on Special Category Status, Special Railway Zone to Vizag, Steel Plant to Kadap and other bifurcation promises that were failed to deliver the bJP, GVL tried to avoid by giving lame excuse and tried to boast that the Centre had done so much to Andhra Pradesh. He reiterated that BJP “gave a lot of funds” but alleged TDP of “misusing” them.
However, Narasimha Rao seriously had no answers on BJP going back on its promises and with the audience no mood to calm down, the organizers had to send a few people to leave the place and continued the event. Even still, GVL hadn’t have a pleasant experience which forced him to cut short his speech and leave the place.
Overall, the spirit of Telugu people in the US is getting appreciation from all corners. Recently, BJP national chief Amit Shah also faced ire of the people of Tirupati during his visit to Tirumala shrine. Looks like, BJP is going to have tough time in AP.
Industry people have huge faith, trust on the judgment of producer-distributor Dil Raju. Many in Tollywood believe that Raju’s judgment rarely goes wrong and gives so much value to his selection of scripts and his distribution releases. But looks like, Raju is slowly losing this.
His latest distribution Mehbooba turned out to be major disaster. While a film may work or may not work at the Box Office and it depends on several things. So, one need not blame the producer or its distributor for the film’s failure.
However, the point here is Dil Raju’s tall claims and his over-the-top praises on director Puri Jagannadh before the release of Mehbooba. Before Mehbooba’s release, Dil Raju on record had said he had watched the entire film of Mehbooba much before and bought the film’s rights only after impressed with the film. Raju publicly stated that Puri Jagannadh is back. He said Puri has once again proved how good his films can be made if he puts heart and soul into the film. Raju said Puri had written the script of Mehbooba whole-heartedly and declared that the film is going to be a big hit.
This talk of Dil Raju has really raised several expectations on the film. Pre-release buzz on Mehbooba was high. Many in industry thought really Puri would be back hearing Raju’s words. But the film has poured cold water on all those hopes. Lack of novel content and slow narrative have dampened the film to the core.
While audiences have rejected the film, Puri is now breathing fire on critics. All these also now surrounding Dil Raju. Looking at all this, one must admit that Raju’s judgment has gone miserably wrong.
How do the offices of top directors like Rajamouli, Sukumar and Trivikram look in reality? Except for the office of Puri Jagan, The Cave, which is designed with almost 15+ crores budget, no other director has a luxury and lavish looking office. The least to say, there is no creative looking office for any Telugu director.
If we got to Bollywood, the likes of Karan Johar and Rajkumar Hirani have these well-designed office spaces, that not only look inspirational but also give that filmy feeling to employees over there. Say it direction department or accounts department, their cabins, the writings on the walls, the pictures and miniatures at these offices sound creative and awe-inspiring.
Reports are being heard in Film Nagar now that even Rajamouli want to come up with one such designer office in Hyderabad. Looking at the office spaces of Karan and others in Mumbai, he has decided to come up with such creative office space for himself too.
Needless to say, that office, if constructed, will have all the weapons that Rajamouli got designed for his protagonists will find space in the showcase. And he might also inspire with his own quotes and special write-ups. On the other hand, Puri Jagan’s office is more of a resort kind of with a filmy look.
When Deve Gowda was the Prime Minister in 1996, the present Governor of Karnataka, Vajubhai Vala, was a minister in Gujarat in BJP’s government under Suresh Mehta’s leadership. Then Deve Gowda was one of the reasons for the fall of Suresh Mehta’s government in Gujarat then. Due to the fall of government, Vajubhai had to lose his ministry.
In fact, Vajubhai had been electing as MLA in Gujarat since 1985 but he was made minister for the first time in 1995-1996 in Suresh Mehta’s tenure. But his first ministry too didn’t last long due to Deve Gowda.
According to various reports, then PM Deve Gowda had recommended President’s Rule in Gujarat. With this, then President Shankar Dayal Sharma had imposed the President Rule. Even Atal Bihari Vajpayee had then objected Deve Gowda’s intervention. Vajpayee had openly criticized Deve Gowda for not keeping his word on Gujarat. Vajpayee had said that Deve Gowda had promised him that he would not interfere in Gujarat but breaking the promise, later Deve Gowda had recommended President’s Rule in Gujarat.
Vajubhai had lost his ministry. BJP’s defector Shankar Sinha Vaghela who had founded RJD had formed the government in Gujarat. Although BJP had majority, then Governor had given chance for RJD to form the government. Although Vaghela quit as the CM in 1977, the RJD had ruled Gujarat till 1998.
Later, Vajubhai had served as Finance Minister in Narendra Modi’s government and presented several budgets. In 2014, after Narendra Modi became the Prime Minister, Vajubhai had been made as the Governor of Karnataka.
Now in Karnataka, Vajubhai has invited the single largest party BJP to form th government. Many are linking this to Vajubhai’s previous experience with Deve Gowda and saying that Vajubhai had given it back to Deve Gowda after 22 years by stopping Deve Gowda’s son to become the Chief Minister now although he had full majority with the support of Congress.
It’s all part and parcel in the game called Politics.
The crisis in Karnataka has reached the Telugu states. Alleging that Governor Vajubhai is acting against the spirit of Indian constitution, Kumaraswamy has dialed both Chandrababu Naidu, KCR separately and sought their help. Swamy has given an open call for the unity of all regional parties in fight against the Centre.
Seasoned politician Chandrababu has been raising concerns over Governors and their bond with the Centre of late. Earlier, Naidu had made serious comments against Governor Narasimhan who allegedly told Naidu to slow down in Karnataka issue. Naidu had alleged that Governors, who are in constitutional posts, are acting at behest of the Union Government. It had created huge uproar. Narasimhan who went to Delhi the following day avoided meeting Prime Minister as he feared it would add more fuel to Naidu’s comments.
Even Chandrababu gave a call to Telugus in Karnataka to support JD(S) in Karnataka elections. Considering all this, Kumaraswamy has now sought Naidu’s intervention in the Karnataka crisis.
At the same time, KCR had also visited Bengaluru and met Deve Gowda, Kumaraswamy. Pressing for the formation of Federal Front, KCR had approached JD(S) to join the Federal Front. Given this, Swamy has also now sought KCR’s help.
Amidst this, Chandrababu Naidu and KCR reportedly offered ‘shelter’ to JD(S) MLAs against the poaching of BJP. While Naidu offered to arrange shelter to JD(S) MLAs in either Vizag or Tirupati, KCR apparently offered to arrange shelter in the City of Pearls, Hyderabad. JD(S) is yet to take a call.
Meanwhile, Congress is planning to shift its 77 MLAs to Kerala, while one is said to be missing. Looks like, Congress-JD(S) combine is pulling out all stops to avoid Yeddyurappa to continue as the CM.
While Tollywood is not seeing such hot sister and brother pairs sizzling on silver screen around the same time, already Bollywood has few direct siblings and few cousins rocking the circuits. And here comes one such sister-brother who are now going to lock horns at the box office.
Fact is that Sonam Kapoor got married now but her latest movie “Veere Di Wedding” showcases her in the hottest avatar ever of her career. The likes of Sonam, Kareena Kapoor and Swara Bhaskar who are acting as friends in the film are competing with each other to pour glamour in each scene. And this film is all set for June 1st release.
Guess what, Sonam’s brother Harshvardhan Kapoor is also coming up with the film “Bhavesh Joshi: Super Hero” on the same day. The film’s trailer got a terrific response from masses and people who love action thrillers. Though Bhavesh Joshi was initially set for May 25th release, lack of theatres due to Raazi and Deadpool 2 in theatres, has pushed the film to June 1st. And what has Sonam to say about this?
REports are coming that Sonam is very happy that she and her brother are clashing at the box office and giving two treats on the same day for their Kapoor kandan fans. With Veere Di Wedding being a romantic emotional journey aiming A centres, Bhavesh Josh is a typical B-C centre movie. So the makers of the films feel that it is a healthy clash.
Since last two days, pictures from Cannes Film Festival are shaking Indian internet users as our celebs poured all the hotness on the red carpet. After the return of Kangana Ranaut and Aishwarya Rai from Cannes, Sonam Kapoor took the beacon of fire.
While Indian hotties are charming the festival this way, a Pakistani actress who has shot to fame after acting in Shahrukh Khan’s film “Raees” is now making the most there. Mahira Khan is the one we’re talking about and this hot lady has walked the ramp for the first time, both for her and her country. With simple makeup and sleeveless outfits, Mahira tried to show both glamour and grace with her avatars.
While flaunting cleavages is the biggest fetish of the starlets walking Cannes red carpet, Mahira contained herself in not-so-revealing dresses because she knows about the backlash she has to face in the conservative society back home. But her saree look coupled with a backless blouse stood top, while her modern outfits also added sparkle.
Unfortunately, Mahira didn’t take enough from India earlier after politicians in Maharashtra threatened to destroy film sets and disrupt releases if Pak actors are given prominence here. She didn’t promote Raees.
Fortunately, few directors are able to get film after film even though their previous films are disasters. And there are those who delivered a blockbuster but still waiting for a hero or heroine to okay their storyline.
Despite delivering duds like Kesava and LIE, both the directors Sudheer Varma and Hanu Raghavapudi respectively are working with Sharwanand in their next. But surprisingly, a director who has delivered first hit of the year through Anushka’s Bhagamathie is yet to grab an offer. Yes, he’s none other than director turned choreographer Ashok.
Though Ashok’s debut film Pilla Zamindar with Nani is also a super hit, the director took years to get a project moving. After a lot of delays, finally, Bhaagamathie released and compensated the lack of entertainment at box office early this year. And then, there are no takers yet for Ashok and his scripts though he narrated some stories already to a few star heroes.
They say that Ashok lacks the narrative skills the likes of Vamsi Vakkantam and Hanu Raghavapudi are having. If one could impress with the narration, star heroes will do films no matter even if the story is hollow. Maybe Ashok should correct that aspect.
