After the Tamil version Big Boss embroiled in to major controversy with the presenter Kamal Haasan’s derogatory comments, the Telugu reality show headed by Junior NTR is also heading to face a big crisis.

Social activist Achyutha Rao lodged a complaint with Telangana Human Rights Commission against the Big Boss show for entrusting ‘inhuman’ tasks to the contenders. He also challenged the tasks are distracting the youth watching the programme regularly.

Rao said the tasks like jumping in swimming pool, cutting Onions all through the night and sleeping in open places are attracted to suppressing the freedom of live. The Rights Commission is likely to respond to the petition in a week time.

Director Sukumar is currently working on his latest movie “Rangasthalam 1985” which features Ram Charan and Samantha in the leads. While meeting deadlines for this project as the release is set for Sankranthi 2018, he produced another film as well.

Darsakudu is the latest film of Sukumar Writings and surprisingly he didn’t write the script. Moreover, the film got attention because our talented star director is introducing his brother’s son Ashok Bandreddi as a hero. As Sukku is popular for giving break to heroes like Allu Arjun (Arya) and Naga Chaitanya (100%Love), many are eager to see what kind of fate he will write upon his brother’s son. But what happened at the box office is really worrying.

Ashok didn’t get full marks on his debut, say it a cliched script or his average performance, he didn’t score well. Probably it looked like the young man who wanted to turn to acting though he worked as assistant director earlier, didn’t polished his skills to suit the need. That aside, Sukumar too didn’t focus on the script written by Hari Prasad Jakka, Darsakudu’s director as well, to ascertain what would help Ashok to prove his talents. Many thought that Sukumar’s brother son will become a star with debut film itself, due to the creative factor the director will bring, but that didn’t happen. Even Sukumar is said to be upset with this happening.

In the recent times, many other family-backed stars are also failing to get a hit at the box office as the launch pad films didn’t do well. Hope Ashok proves his mettle with the next.

Today it happens to be Raksha Bandhan festival and the who is who of Tollywood are flaunting their Rakhis tied by their sweet sisters. On this occasion, Superstar Krishna’s younger daughter Padmini Priyadarshini, who happens to be the wife of hero Sudheer Babu, spoke about her brothers.

Nani (Mahesh Babu) is like a friend. We used to fight and he used to tease us. But after growing up, he’s become a caretaker. Nani enquiries if I’m happy with Sudhir Babu or not, and how my kids are doing” said Padmini.

Padmini has brothers Ramesh Babu and Mahesh Babu, and also two elder sisters Padma and Manjula as well. All the sisters have this special bonding with both brothers and always Mahesh also flaunts his respect and love for them quite openly.

Rebel Star Krishnam Raju has three daughters Sai Pradeepti, Sai Prakeerthi and Sai Praseeda share a close bond with actor Prabhas. They revealed that the Baahubali star is a down to earth person and is a close friend of them who is well bonded. More than a friend, Prabhas is a caring brother revealed the sisters.

On the eve of Raksha Bandhan, one among the sisters Sai Prakeerthi shared some interesting updates about their bonding.

Here are some among them in her words: “He is very close to us and is completely down to earth. We spend a lot of time together when is not shooting for films. We respect him a lot and he loves us so much. He surprises us with many gifts as per our interests. We are eagerly waiting like everyone for his marriage. As he is busy with films, we are not sure about the wedding date but our family is quite excited and we sisters are sure going to make so much noise throughout his wedding“.

Furthermore she added: “We get lot of gifts whenever he flies abroad and he is quite concerned about our studies. Our brother wants us to settle in the best way and he is one of the finest human beings we have ever met. It’s good to have a caring brother like him“.

One hit film is enough to change the fortunes of any actress forever. That happens not just with heroines but also with former heroines too. Here comes Sivagami, aka Ramya Krishna, the actress who transformed from a sex bomb to powerhouse performer.

The success of Baahubali catapulted Sivagami into a new high that she even got a chance to feature on cover pages of magazines. On the latest issue of JFW magazine, Ramya poses quite elegantly exuding both her royal charm and also that glamour tinge. The 46 year old actress credits this new found glow to Baahubali success, while her fans are still squeezed by that oomph factor she displayed.

Ramya is more open to doing mother roles now, but she’s carefully picking her choices as she doesn’t want to be mother-next-door but only a powerful one.

The actress is all set for the release of VIP 2 and during her recent media interaction, she revealed about her relationship with Dhanush and how #SuchiLeaks shattered them.

She said “I love to work with Dhanush and he is quite passionate about films. Singer Suchitra is a close friend of mine and she was not responsible for Suchi leaks. Someone did that with a bad intention. There were speculations that a video will be out soon, but It never happened. I and Dhanush are eagerly waiting for the video”. That way Amala gave a clean chit to Suchitra.

Talking about her future plans, “I am not planning anything about marriage as of now. I am quite occupied with movies and I was offered a role in Dhanush’s next movie Vada Chennai but I could not sign as because of my packed schedules”, she added.

About films, she added, “I have not hiked my remuneration and I am eagerly waiting for the release of Jaya Janaki Nayaka and Spyder”.

Social media has become a tool these days to reach out to many. But those ‘many’ are the ones who cause trouble with their unethical and insensitive comments. One such happening also upset director Koratala Siva, if we have to believe reports.

Though he wrote only punch lines during his stint as a writer, he changed the way his stories will represent society after he became a director. He’s giving social messages through films like Srimanthudu and Janatha Garage. And now, when he tried to give the similar message through twitter, the response he got is something different.

“Politics becoming dirtier and dirtiest. At an all time high. God can’t save it. We can. We only can“, this is his yesterday’s tweet. A couple of days before he claimed that government’s need to establish SIT to eradicate corruption as well. “Drugs are a bigger menace to the society. Need of the hour to clean it out. should appreciate the conviction to do so. Don’t we have a right to expect the same aggression to clean out the equally or say bigger menacing issues like corruption” he said.

Many responses on these tweets included that Koratala Siva is promoting his latest movie “Bharat Anu Nenu” through these lines as the Mahesh Babu starrer also revolves around politics and how a young Chief Minister transformed the future of a state forever. Hurt by these comments, Koratala is said to have told his associates that few things never change in society.

Well, will a single tweet promote a film and its political theme? And for a movie that has Koratala at the helm with Mahesh Babu as a hero, such tweets are not needed to promote, say fans.

Catherine Tresa’s exit from Chiru’s landmark film Khaidi No. 150 had been the talking point. There have been several speculations, rumours surrounding her exit from the film. One of the prominent reasons we heard was that her differences with Chiru’s elder daughter Susmitha who was the costume designer of the film.

When Catherine was asked the same, she responded saying, “I have nothing to say. Only they should talk about that matter.” By saying so, Catherine has indicated that there was ‘mistake’ from their end.

Also point to be noted is that Catherine has neither denied nor approved the news that differences were due to ‘costumes’. As Catherine is all set for a spicy special song in Boyapati Sreenu’s Jaya Janaki Nayaka, all eyes are on the film. Already, glimpses of Catherine in the film have created good buzz.
