Actress Kiara Advani, who is playing the love interest of Superstar Mahesh Babu in the actor’s upcoming film, ‘Bharat Ane Nenu’, says that she wishes to go on a dinner date with Indian cricketer and former captain MS Dhoni.

Kiara had earlier played Dhoni’s wife Sakshi Dhoni in the ace cricketer’s biopic, ‘MS Dhoni: The Untold story’. During a recent interview, when the beautiful actress was asked with whom she wants to go on a dinner date, Kiara reportedly took the name of Dhoni in a jiffy.

“I love the way he treats his wife and daughter. I like him for being so grounded despite having achieved so much. I know he is married, I want to go on a dinner date with him so I could know more about him,” the young actress revealed without any hesitation.

Kiara reportedly said that she likes Virat Kohli besides Dhoni. She called the new Indian skipper, the hottest player.

Young hero Nani, who is on a roll with a series of successful films, is on high demand as several young and established directors are lined up to grab a chance with him.

The award-winning actor is concurrently doing MCA with Venu Sriram and Krishna Arjuna with Merlapaka Gandhi. As soon as Nani wraps up both ongoing projects, he is expected to work under the direction of young filmmaker Kishore Tirumala. Kishore shot to fame with Ram’s Nenu Sailaja that released in early 2016.

Kishore is currently directing Ram for the second time in ‘Unnadhi Okkate Zindagi’ and Mythri Movie Makers are rolling out this project. After this project, the budding filmmaker is likely to direct Nani, who also signed a film under direction of Avasarala Srinivas. On other hand, Nani will make a cameo appearance in a Tamil flick titled Palaandu Vaazhga.

Star producer Dil Raju is currently waiting for October 18th to witness another successful film at the box office, after scoring four hits already this year. He’s coming up with “Raja The Great” movie which features Raviteja and Mehreen in the lead and helmed by Anil Ravipudi.

Guess what, this ace producer hasn’t even started some huge promotions for the movie though it’s just only three days more for the release. Other than Mehreen turning up at a few radio stations and launching songs, there is not much happening. While Raju exuded huge confidence with the film’s output and how it will perform at the box office, why is he lagging in promotions?

An inside source tells us, Raju is convinced that this film will not require massive promotions. Because Raja The Great marks the comeback of Raviteja after a long time, so naturally many cinema lovers eagerly look forward to him. At the same time, his mass fans already got connected to the comedy elements in the trailer and Anil Ravipudi’s dialogues-screenplay is an additional asset. At the same time, the concept of blind protagonist itself is impressive and class audiences got connected to it. For these reasons, Raju feels that massive promotions are not needed for this film.

Let’s see if Raju’s assumptions are correct or not, on this Wednesday.

Today anchors are tomorrows silver screen avatars, is what many believe, especially when it comes to these hot lady show hosts. From Jhansi to Anasuya, Suma to Rashmi, many tried their luck, but those who flaunted glamour are getting somewhat fruitful roles, while others are limited to side characters.

Treading on the same path, chubby girl Sreemukhi also tried her hand as a heroine but in no time she’s out of offers. That forced to become busy on small screen, but still, she hasn’t left big screen desires. She’s now coming up with a new film, where she crossed the boundary to unveil that ‘hot’ side of her.

Actor-writer Harshavardhan has now turned to music and direction, along with those two stunts. With his talents clubbed and unleashed, he’s now coming up with the film “Good Bad Ugly” set in a period backdrop of the early 90s. Other day when the trailer released, more than the satires of Ram Gopal Varma and Maniratnam, it’s the glamour of Sreemukhi that garnered the attention.

While admirers of this chubby girl are praising her work as a bold movie, other cinema lovers are feeling that she’s getting into glamour zone to fetch more offers. However, they feel that she should focus on maintaining right physique to succeed with commercial films. Let’s see the how this film is going to fare for her at the box office.

Sivagami, Neelambari in ‘Narasimha’, Ammoru etc. are some of the most powerful and unforgettable characters veteran diva Ramya Krishna has essayed in her career spanning more than three decades. It is heard that she will be next seen in another such strong role.

Ramya Krishna is rumored to be playing the role of a Rayalaseema politician’s wife in the upcoming film, ‘Balakrishnudu’. Starring Nara Rohith in lead role, the film is said to be centered around Rayalaseema faction and politics. Rumors are rife that Ramya Krishna’s character is modeled on slain leader Paritala Ravi’s wife and current AP minister Sunitha. Although the story is completely fictional, it allegedly resembles the real life story of Paritala couple.

Ramya Krishna’s character’s rise from being the widow of a popular leader to a powerful woman who dictates the region’s politics will said to be shown in a powerful manner. Her acting is being termed as a major highlight of the film.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has penned the foreword for an upcoming book titled, “Beyond The Dreamgirl”, making him perhaps the first active PM to have written introductory words for a book. Guess what prompted him to do this favor for the book? It’s the biography of Hema Malini, one of the female superstars of Indian film industry.

“Beyond the Dreamgirl” is an authorized biography of Hema Malini. It will be launched on October 16, when she turns 69. The launch also marks the celebration of Hema Malini’s 50 years in Indian showbiz. She was recently seen on Telugu silver screen playing the crucial mother character of Balayya in ‘Gauthamiputhra Sathakarni’.

Having started her film career in 1968, Hema Malini won the hearts of Indian movie lovers with her talent, striking performances and evergreen charisma. In the process, she earned the title of “Dreamgirl” and went on to become a superstar in a male-dominated film industry.

“No, we haven’t actually planned any honeymoon. Not even something like flying to New York to revisit those places where Ye Maya Chesave was shot” claims Samantha, confirming that there is no grand holiday on the board anytime soon. However, the couple is said to be celebrating their “first holiday” together at home.

In fact, both Samantha and Chaitanya rushed to work after tying the knot and exchanging rings on October 6th and 7th. Within two days, they packed bags from Goa and landed in Hyderabad. While Samantha stepped into promoting Raju Gari Gadhi 2, Chay is busy with script discussions of his upcoming films. Then what’s this First Holiday?

For all those working out there all the time, definitely, Sunday is the big holiday than any other festival. We hear that today (Oct 15th) is the first free Sunday for both Chay and Sam, and they have decided to take a break from all other assignments for the day. Chay is said to have cooking special dishes for his wife, while the starlet is busy chalking plans for some other festivities at home.

Probably we should look at this as their ‘mini’ honeymoon if we have to say. And that too spending time at their love nest in this beautiful rainy weather of Hyderabad is really a bliss.

Nagarjuna and Samantha-starrer Raju Gari Gadhi 2 that released on Friday is going strong. The film is shining bright at box office putting a full stop to the run of all Dussehra movies.

Despite the Ohmkar directorial and PVP, Matinee joint production got divide-talk from critics on day one, the same isn’t visible at ticket windows because day two for RGG 2 has proved bigger than day one.

Beating all the odds, RGG 2 raked a share of 6.73 Crs in two days in Telugu states with a strong positive word of mouth spreading fast.

Below is break-up of RGG 2 in 2 Days

Nizam 2.71 Cr

Ceded 91 L
Vizag 77 L
East 56 L
West 41 L
Krishna 48 L
Guntur 67 L
Nellore 22 L

Total 6.73 Cr

Karnataka 80 L

Unlike the first part which was high on comedy and horror, addition of Nagarjuna and Samantha made RGG 2 an emotional drive with ample fun in first half and heart touching, painful episodes shot on Amrutha aka Samantha connecting well with family audience.

Reports say this can be first time for a film in horror genre pulling family audience en-masse and piling massive numbers at box office. Surely a winner for Akkineni Samantha and Akkineni Nagarjuna.

In a recent interview, Pawan Kalyan’s ex-wife and the mother of his first two children, Renu Desai revealed an emotional incident when her daughter Aadhya pleaded God not to kill her.

‘Sometime ago, I was diagnosed with a serious ailment related to heart. I had to take medication for months to completely recover from that. Aadhya had witnessed my suffering and she was quite disturbed.

One day, when Aadhya returned from school, I was in deep sleep because of the powerful medicines I had taken. When I didn’t open my eyes on her repeated efforts to wake me, she started crying fearing that I died. When I finally woke up, I found her sobbing with bloated eyes..and she said, “Please mommy, don’t die, don’t leave me”

I couldn’t control tears looking her like that. I somehow gathered strength and promised her that I won’t die. I told her that I won’t leave her until I conduct her marriage and I even promised to look after her kids.

When I asked her to pray God not to take me away from her, she sat in the Pooja room with folded hands for hours, praying. It was a very emotional day for me,’ recollected Renu Desai.
