Nagarjuna Akkineni-starrer ‘Super’ fame Ayesha Takia’s husband Farhan Azmi has reportedly received death threats for committing ‘Love Jihad’ (marrying a Hindu woman, Ayesha).

Azmi, who is the son of controversial Maharashtar MLA Abu Azmi, married Ayesha Takia in 2009 and they have a 5-year-old son. The young man receiving threats after these many years of marriage has become a talking point in Mumbai political and film circles. He even lodged a police complaint in this regard.

Farhan Azmi’s complaint states that a political outfit named ‘Hindu Sena’ threatened him over phone for marrying Ayesha Takia, who is a Hindu woman. “You all are animals. Have you forgotten that you have indulged in Love Jihad by marrying a Hindu girl?” the unidentified caller reportedly told the actress’ husband.

It however is suspected that the primary target of the Hindu outfit was not Ayesha but her father-in-law Abu Azmi, who often makes controversial statements. Abu Azmi has recently commented about singer Suchitra Krishnamoorthi’, who had earlier ridiculed ‘Azaan’ (morning call for Muslims to prayer).

The Hindu political outfit is reportedly offended by the response of Azmi towards Suchitra, and told his son over phone, “Ask your father to stop shouting like an animal else he will be bumped off.”

Ever since her marriage, Ayesha somehow has been becoming a victim whenever her father-in-law makes an absurd statement.

National-award winning child artist Shamili, who made her debut as a leading lady with the 2009 Siddarth starrer ‘Oye’, hasn’t done any more films post the debacle of that film.

She took a long hiatus of six years before returning to acting. After doing a couple of Malayalam and Tamil films in the last two years, Shamili is all geared up to return to Tollywood. Reportedly, the talented actress will be seen playing young hero Naga Shourya’s love interest in a new film, which has already gone on floors.

Shamili has lost oodles of weight compared to the ‘Oye’ days and looks quite different now. She hopes to strike back in tollywood where she excelled as a child artist.

SS Karthikeya, who came into prominence after working as his father SS Rajamouli’s handyman on ‘Baahubali’, is known for being a multifaceted talent. The young lad is now in news on a ‘cheating’ accusation.

A drone manufacturer and operator based in Hyderabad is reportedly having a tough time procuring his drones and balance payment from Karthikeya. As per his alleged claims, he was hired by Karthikeya’s team to operate drones for Naga Chaitanya’s new film “Yuddham Sharanam”, a film being bankrolled by Vaarahi Chalana Chitram.

He alleged that Karthikeya didn’t give him the necessary time to build and test the drones even though he had specifically asked it. He cited readily unavailability of most of the parts needed to build the drones besides a few other reasons for delay in the work from his side.

“On the last day of shooting, Karthikeya kept my drones, didn’t pay me fully and told me on my face that he didn’t like my work. If he didn’t like my work, why wait till the last day? He has anyway not made the full payment then why keep my drones? Thinking I can’t do anything, he duped me,” the person allegedly said.

Karthikeya on the other hand, reportedly accepted that he has the drones with him and that he hasn’t paid a part of the promised money. “There are so many things that he promised but didn’t do. Even the little work he did, he was too late and we suffered a lot because of his negligence. In fact, I paid him more than what he deserves,” Karthikeya reportedly said. ‘I don’t have any use with these drones, I will anyway give them back to him,’ he added.

The box office race between Telugu epic ‘Baahubali 2’ and Bollywood film ‘Dangal’ has been a never ending process. With ‘Dangal’ crossing ‘Baahubali 2’ to stand at the moment as India’s highest grosser with the help of its unbelievable performance at Chinese box office, and ‘Baahubali 2’ shortly set for a wide release in China, fans of the epic Telugu film are of the opinion that it would beat ‘Dangal’ after its release in China.

Vijayendra Prasad, the ace writer who had created the world of ‘Baahubali’ on paper, however believes that Baahubali 2 can’t surpass Dangal. In one of his recent interviews, he reasoned, ‘Chinese people have seen umpteen costume dramas like Baahubali 2 so I feel that it will not work there. Dangal became a huge success there because people connected with the women-centric plot and how a daughter fulfilled the dream of her father.’

With the Baahubali writer himself declaring that the magnum opus has no chance of overtaking ‘Dangal’, fans might be disappointed. His analysis is supported by the fact that when Baahubali first part was released in China two years ago after it had created mayhem at the Indian box office, it couldn’t replicate the same success story there.

The senior writer further said that instead of comparing ‘Baahubali 2’ and ‘Dangal’, people should celebrate as two Indian films have performed exceptionally well and increased the reach of Indian cinema.

The combination of Pawan Kalyan and Trivikram Sreenivas is doing unbelievable pre-release business for PK25.

Already, record deals are being inked for area wise theatrical rights of this biggie. Now, the upcoming family entertainer has cracked a mindblowing deal for the satellite rights. Reportedly, the Telugu satellite rights of PK-Trivikram film have been acquired by Gemini TV for a whopping Rs 21 crore. The price is monstrous since it is for only the Telugu version.

Trivikram’s films have huge repeat value on Television. Even his films like Athadu and Khaleja, which didn’t work at box office, have done well on TV. Pawan Kalyan is a big name who can make viewers glued to television irrespective of hits and flops. When the duo teamed up for a project, it was bound to get record satellite price. But, not many would have predicted the makers to strike a deal as huge as Rs 21 crore.

The film’s Hindi rights (Satellite and Digital) have been sold earlier for Rs 11 crore, which is another striking deal. PK25 has recovered 32 crores just with Hindi and Telugu Satellite rights, phenomenal.All this mayhem is being created even before the announcement of the title or first look release.

Puri Jagannath made headlines for all the wrong reasons recently. He is the first film celebrity to face interrogation of Special Investigation Team (SIT). Usually, Any Film Personality in such a situation wouldn’t like to give any chance to media for running 30 minute episodes again.

However, Puri Jagannath surprised everyone by visiting Apollo Hospital in Jubilee Hills within hours after the news of attack on Former Minister Mukesh Goud’s Son Vikram Goud spread like wild fire. He consoled Vikram Goud and enquired about his health condition.

If the media reports are to be believed, Vikram Goud is under immense stress since the past few days because of the in-depth investigation of Drug Racket Case. Is there any truth in this update? or Whether Media jumped into conclusion just because Puri went to meet Vikram Goud in the Hospital?

Vikram Goud is the owner of a Pub in Hyderabad City. He co-produced Nithin’s films ‘Ishq’ and ‘Gunde Jaari Ghallanthayinde’. That’s how he maintained good contacts in Film Industry.

After blasting Tollywood for giving her only glamorous roles, Taapsee then apologised with no other option in hand as she has promoted her new film Anando Brahma as well. Cut to Bollywood, she’s doing the contrast of what she blasted Tollywood for all these days.

This curly haired seductress from Delhi who has claimed all these days that Pink and Naam Shabana have given her chance to showcase her acting potential to the world has finally got a much needed glamorous role through Judwaa 2. And to make this film a turning point in her career, this poor lady now donned a bikini as well.

If we could notice from the on location pictures of Judwaa 2, where Taapsee is shooting alongside Varun Dhawan and Jacqueline Fernandez, our hottie slipped into an aquamarine blue coloured two piece bikini and a lace top over it. One wonders why Taapsee picked up such a glamorous role after proving her so-called acting potential with Pink like movies.

Well, no matter what, Taapsee is in need of roles and if a big film offer comes way there is no option than going glamorous for it. While that is her own call, what worries Telugu audiences is that why she’s blasting Telugu films for showcasing her in glamour dimension while she herself is doing the same?
