Going by the latest happenings in Allu compound, star director Koratala Siva is likely to direct Allu Arjun next.

After wrapping up Mahesh Babu’s “Bharat Ane Nenu”, Koratala was supposed to direct Ram Charan and NTR in successive projects. The two mass heroes however have become extremely unavailable for Koratala as they have set up massive projects. Charan and NTR will team up with Boyapati Seenu and Trivikram respectively before collaborating for Rajamouli’s multistarrer.

With the two heroes he aspired to work with got busy, Koratala has reportedly planned to direct Bunny. Discussions for the same have already started. Ace producer Dil Raju is likely to bankroll this film.

Bunny is currently working for Vakkantham Vamsi’s “Naa Peru Surya”. He has already committed to work with Tamil director Lingusamy next. With a potential director like Koratala knocking his door, Bunny may find himself at crossroads in choosing between him and Lingusamy.

Time and again, people always feel little touchy when the truth is revealed that Sumanth was the original hero of Toliprema and Raviteja was supposed to don khaki in Pokiri. Here is another such interesting snippet.

We hear that the original second heroine of Pawan Kalyan’s latest movie, his 25th, is directed by Trivikram, is someone else. They say, heroine Poonam Kaur was supposed to do the role, but somehow she was ignored at the last minute. Currently, that role is being done by Anu Emmanuel, who is shedding inhibitions to turn super hot for the character.

As reported by some gossip columns, Poonam was almost finalized for the role, but her comments about Pawan Kalyan and her liking for Janasena have played a bad luck for her. Because Pawan doesn’t want to give the signals to anyone that people interested in Janasena will get an opportunity to work with him.

If not #PSPK25, maybe she will sizzle in an item number in Trivikram’s next that features Jr NTR in the lead, they say. Poonam was crowned Miss Andhra Pradesh long back and tested her stint as heroine, character artist and else.

On the eve of his birthday today, Naga Chaitanya’s better-half Samantha shared a heartwarming wish. This message is another instance of conveying Samantha’s unconditional for the Akkineni hero.

Calling Chaitu her everything, Sam said that she prays every single day for his well being. “Happy birthday my Everything. I don’t wish, I pray every single day that God gives you everything your heart desires. I love you forever. #happybirthdaychay,” Sam wrote, alongside sharing a lovely picture from the wedding day.

What more Chaitu would desire for when he got one of the most good-hearted and most loving wife? The couple is giving inspiring and endearing relationship goals to all with their PDA.

Top actress Rakul Preet Singh, who reportedly takes home an eight digit remuneration per film, has talked about the disparity in the remunerations of heroes and heroines. She said that even the likes of Nayanthara doesn’t earn one fourth of what star heroes earn per film.

Rakul reportedly said that despite being called the Lady Superstar of South and carrying whole films on her able shoulders, Nayan pockets somewhere around Rs 3 Cr per film whereas male star heroes take home around 15 Cr remuneration. She added that she couldn’t understand the statistics being followed by filmmakers, but she nonetheless said that the pay disparity explicitly shows the male domination in film industry.

The beautiful actress said that she however has no complaints as she feels she takes home the pay she deserves for her hard work. Rakul added that she has no intention of changing the decades-old system in film industry, and has learnt to be happy with what she has been getting.

Needless to say that many media houses already took a certain political stand and their stories always project their political favoritism. Spewing venom on the party they are at loggerheads, most of the time ‘news’ is getting biased.

Recently a popular TV channel invited a comedian to speak about some of his comments made on another TV show. During the show, when the anchor tried to put him in a spot, the comedian gave a complete retort. He asked about the flaws of the channel, the way TRP generating news getting importance than the really important ones and how the channel want to create a sensation of everything.

The moment this comedian explained that logically, the anchor’s face went red. The anchor retorted saying, ‘we know what to do’, for which the comedian replied, ‘I also know what to do and speak’. Post the show, the anchor was said to have turned into tears for not being able to win over the comedian on the show.

Looking at the anchor’s situation, the TV channel not only gave a strong warning to the comedian but made him apologize to the anchor in person. So, if someone doesn’t bend to anchor’s words, they need to apologize? Fantastic this is, isn’t it?

Bellamkonda Sreenivas is inarguably the luckiest hero in Tollywood at the moment. The young hero is yet to score a commercial hit, but he is still finding top producers and directors even before he wraps up his on-sets films.

His debut film, Alludu Seenu was directed by VV Vinayak, third film, Jaya Janaki Nayaka was directed by Boyapati Seenu, and as per our reliable sources, Vinayak has come back to direct Bellamkonda’s next, fifth overall film as well. After completing Sai Dharam Tej’s “Durga”, Vinayak will direct Bellakonda in a film to be produced by Nallamalupu Bujji. The young hero is currently shooting for ‘Saakshyam’, in the direction of Sriwaas of “Dictator” fame.

With no star hero giving his dates, Vinayak seems to have decided to bank on his self image and direct young heroes instead, who are readily willing to act under his direction.

Movie buffs wonder how can Nallamalupu Bujji, who has tasted a series of duds such as Alludu Seenu (Vinayak-Bellamkonda), Mukunda, Rabhasa, Winner and Mister pool funds for a not-so exciting yet costly combo, Vinayak-Bellamkonda? Not to forget that Sreenivas’ dad is Bellamkonda Suresh.

Sometimes heroes trying a genre other than they are known for is actually going to work negatively. When the likes of Siddharth tried to get a mass image and when Gopichand tried to get a class image, the results are disastrous.

Despite looking at such odds, many heroes still try to change their image and recently two one-sided heroes got ready to test luck with Oora Mass content. Talented actor Nara Rohit is known for picking stories with a different perspective and he’s on the artistic side. At the same time, Naga Shourya is known for his romantic lover boy image as he joined that cute-hero side. Both want to change that badly it seems.

Rohit is coming up ‘Balakrishnudu’ which happens to be a pucca mass film loaded with all masala and commercial elements. But many times audiences have rejected such films from him. Still, he wants to jump from artistic-side to mass side. Going by the trailer of the film, we can’t really say whether it will work or not.

Cut to Naga Shourya, he’s coming up with Chalo movie now, which is another masala movie involving him both as a lover boy and also the one who fights for a cause. Without getting that mass stardom, will these save-the-world kinds of stories work?

Will these heroes learn the lesson hard way? Or will they prove themselves? Only time will tell.

Watching Megastar Chiranjeevi and Ram Charan in a single frame is a special moment for fans. The specialty of the pic becomes manifold when the father-son duo looks same to same, with their bushy beards.

Charan has shared this endearing pic on his FB page where he is seen having a serious discussion with his father over coffee. “Same to same #coffeetime #beardo. Glad I could convince him to step out fr coffee,” Charan captioned the pic, referring to their bushy beards grown for Rangasthalam and Sye Raa respectively.

Upasana also shared the pic on her timeline and wrote, “It’s so important to take time out to spend with ur parents #bonding. It’s a priceless gift Specially father & son. #familygoals likefather likeson #RamCharan.”

Sai Dharam Tej’s Jawaan trailer has been unveiled. Director BVS Ravi has revealed the film’s plot subtly that the protagonist fights for his own family and what comes in between and how does he stands up against all the odds and saves his family is the crux of the story.

The trailer is gripping and made in a stylish way. Sai Dharam Tej yet again chooses a strong, powerful role with a rugged look. At the same time, antagonist Prasanna too seem to have equally powerful role and the cat-and-mouse game between the duo is said to be what takes the story forward.

A dialogue from the trailer “Yuddham Modalayyaka Pakkodu Poyada, Venakodu Agipoyada, Mundodu Kulipoyada Annadi Kadura Mukhyam.. Yuddham Gelichama Leda Annade Mukhyam.”

Thaman’s background music is certainly an asset. Visuals are impressive. Technically, the trailer has nothing to find fault with. Mehreen, who plays Tej’s love interest, is seen in a glamorous role. She is there to lighten up the film it seems. The family emotion is also established with a nice conversation between father and son.

On the whole, Jawaan is the film to look out for. It is releasing on December 1.

Being in and out of relationships is very common in film industry but not many actresses confess this in front of media. Bold actress Raai Laxmi however had no qualms while revealing the reason behind the failure of her many relationships.

Raai Laxmi is currently busy promoting her bold Hindi film ‘Julie 2’. During an interview, when she was asked about relationships, Laxmi confessed that she had been in five relationships thus far, and that all of them ended because the guys couldn’t understand her real personality.

The hottie said that she is a very sensitive and emotional person and that she expects the person she is in a relationship to understand her and comfort her when she is in distress. “All my five relationships failed because I realized that people try to take advantage of actresses, who are vulnerable in matters related to trust and love,” she reportedly said.

She added that she has learnt from the bitter experiences, and that is in no hurry to get into another relationship.
