If grapevine is to be believed, Nithiin and Hanu Raghavapudi’s Lie is likely to be deferred. Producers are contemplating to postpone the film’s release from its current release date of August 11 to a later date in order to avoid the clash with two other films Jaya Janaki Nayaka and Rana-starrer Nene Raju Nene Mantri.

Although nothing has been made official, the production house is said to be toying with the idea of postponing Lie and looking for a solo release to garner more traction.

The idea is still in nascent phase. There is no confirmation yet. A key decision regarding the film’s release is likely to be taken today. Trade is also said to be indicating to postpone Lie to avoid clash with two other films.

If Lie postpones its release, this would certainly give way to both Jaya Janaki Nayaka as well as Nene Raju Nene Mantri. Predominantly shot in US, Nithiin and Megha Akash-starrer Lie has been made with a relatively high budget.

Naga Shourya, who is seen as Nara Rohit’s brother in Jyo Achyutananda, will be seen in a guest appearance in Rohit’s upcoming film Kathalo Rajakumari. Apparently, Rohit has suggested Shourya’s name for the cameo when director wanted a young hero for a special role.

Shourya couldn’t say ‘no’ as it was referred by his BFF Rohit. It is learnt that it is a three-day role and would be limited to a short duration in the film. However, it is buzzed that the role is significant and would have a lasting impact. Shourya reportedly didn’t charge a single penny for the role as he accepted it for the friendship.

Rohit and Shourya became very good friends during the shoot of Jyo Achyutananda. Both became friends on the sets and got along really very well. Rohit maintains friendship with many others including his co-stars. For instance, Rohit’s close friend is Sri Vishnu with whom the actor collaborates and shares screen space.

Looks like, Shourya has now joined the list of Rohit’s friends. Shourya on other hand is doing a Telugu-Tamil bilingual with Sai Pallavi as heroine under Lyca Productions and besides this, he is also acting in a film in his own production.

While career graph of star heroine Nayanthara has its ups and downs with hits and duds respectively, her pay graph never looks down. Undoubtedly, Nayanthara is one of the most wanted heroines, thanks to her perfect looks to pair with young and aged heroes too.

Well, that is not just limited to films and Nayanthara is reportedly charging a bomb for a TV commercial. Nayan is brand face of a popular DTH service and the talented actress charged Rs 5 Cr for one TV commercial, leaving all the contemporary stars in envy and open mouth.

Nayanthara is said to be charging around Rs 4 Cr for a film and that excludes promoting the film, they say. But Rs 5 Cr for a TV commercial shot in just two days speaks loud about Nayanthara’s demand.

On film front, Nayanthara is right now busy in a film Velaikkaran with Sivakarthikeyan and Imaika Nodigal with Ganamuthu. And in Telugu, reports say that she signed the dotted line for Balakrishna – KS Ravikumar movie, which is yet to start.

Megha Akash, who is all set to make her Tollywood debut with Lie where she is paired opposite Nithiin, has been replaced by Lavanya Tripathi in forthcoming film featuring Ram as the main lead. Although Megha had been the initial choice for the film, due to her clash of dates, the makers have approached Lavanya who has readily agreed to work with Ram. Lavanya is going to join the shoot soon in the first week of August.

The film is going to mark the reunion of Nenu Sailaja combo. Director Tirumala Kishore, hero Ram, producer Sravanthi Ravi Kishore and music director Devi Sri Prasasd have joined the forces once again.

Inside information is that the film would be called as ‘Unnadi Okkate Zindagi’. The film’s title would be unveiled soon along with its first look. Ram is quite confident on the film and it’s said that the film is shaping up well.

Anupama Parameswaran, of Shatamanam Bhavati and Premam fame, is playing the female lead opposite Ram which will also see Lavanya in another female lead. Like Nenu Sailaja, Unnadi Okkate Zindagi will also be a youthful entertainer.

Other day Pawan Kalyan has simply stunned with his speech, at his first ever media interaction in Amaravathi. And that speech got something to do with Pawan and his Mega fan base as well. Here are the two reasons for which fans are highly upset.

Reason 1:

Pawan Kalyan directly quoted that he’s not into secret friendship with Telugu Desam party but will continue his allegiance. And when the time comes, he will question and fire at TDP on behalf of people. While saying this, he said, “I’ve not even spared my brother, why would I spare TDP?”, which sounds quite genuine.

But some hardcore mega fans do feel that whenever Pawan Kalyan wants to prove that he’s genuine and great, he should not bring Megastar Chiranjeevi’s name this way. While Chiranjeevi never speaks in such harsh tone against his younger brother, why Pawan is always saying that ‘he went against his brother’ other than the fact that he wants to earn sympathy out of it.

Reason 2:

Apparently, the Janasena President clarified that he will be focusing on full-time politics from October as he will be commitment free by then regarding his film assignments. In that case, Pawan Kalyan is likely to finish only Trivikram’s movie but may not find time to wrap another film under the direction of Santosh Srinivas. Trivikram will be needing the whole of August and September to wrap his movie with Pawan, #PK25, and that will be Pawan’s last film in case if he has decided to forgo his film career forever.

Whether these two reasons are genuinely upsetting fans out there or not, his arrival into full-time politics is being welcomed by many of his good wishers.

After sustaining interest with two different-type teasers, the trailer of Boyapati Sreenu’s most awaited film Jaya Janaki Nayaka has been unveiled today along with the music album of Devi Sri Prasad. The trailer sees Boyapati’s trademark style as it showcases both high-octane scenes along with emotional depth.

Boyapati also caters to the family audiences as he accommodates good dose of sentiment. Relying high on the romance and action, the trailer seems to be a complete package. The visuals have a special edge as they are shot against picturesque locales.

As it is his strength, Boyapati carried the action scenes very well. Besides lead cast Bellamkonda Srinivas, Rakul Preet, the film features ensemble cast including Jagapathi Babu, Sarath Kumar, Rishi Punjab, Vani Viswanath and many others.

Adding the more intensity, Devi’s background thumping score has come in handy for the visuals. Dialogues are praise-worthy. On the whole, it is complete Boyapati-mark trailer.
