Already this weekend has turned quite fantastic with people enjoying the pleasant showers on Saturday and waiting up for the India’s Championship Trophy final with arch-rival Pakistan on Sunday. But the weekend Pawan Kalyan, Mahesh and Jr NTR missed out is something more golden and precious, when it comes to their films.

‘August 11’ is one superior date for Telugu films if they wanted to cash on the long weekend that is coming up on August 14th and August 15th holidays. A five-day weekend would prove much helpful for big-ticket movies to collect more crores than anticipated.

Mahesh Babu’s Spyder has missed out a horde of release dates due to the Visual Effects work that is consuming huge time. Than the present September 27th date, August 11th would have been bigger for the film to amass hugely. Despite the fact that Jr NTR’s recent film Janata Garage was out to theatres long back, his next film got delayed for reasons unknown. Earlier Jai Lava Kusa was scheduled for an August 11th release, but the film missed it out and moved to Dasara now.

Even Pawan Kalyan and director Trivikram also planned to come banging on August 11th, but the film now got moved to the new date as the shooting took off very late and schedules got changed big time. There is no clarity if the film is up in Dasara race or Sankranthi 2018 marathon, but missed this Golden Date.

Other films like Nitin’s LIE, Sai Dharam Tej’s Jawan, Rana’s Nene Raju Nene Mantri are now scheduled for August 11th release while many other films are also expected to join the combat.

It is official that Mahesh-Murugadoss’s much awaited action thriller Spyder is releasing for Dussera.They are currently looking to release it on September 27, but they also have plans to advance the release date by a week given the competition in Kollywood and Bollywood during Dussehra weekend.

September 21 is a good date to release a big ticket film, however, Pawan Kalyan’s twenty fifth film is currently eyeing that day.Although there is buzz about possible delay in release plans of #PSPK25, makers haven’t clarified about the same.

So, team Spyder is waiting for the official confirmation from the makers of PSPK25 to make changes to their actual plans.If Pawan Kalyan’s film gets pushed to some other date then Spyder will be arriving earlier than expected.

As of now Pawan25 is progressing at a brisk pace. They might lock the release date after the current schedule, where major part of the filming will be finished.

Actress Kajal Aggarwal, who has reunited with filmmaker Teja for upcoming Telugu political drama “Nene Raju, Nene Mantri”, says it is a very special film in her career for many reasons.

“This is indeed a very special film for several reasons. First and foremost, I have teamed up with my mentor Teja sir for the second time after a decade,” Kajal told IANS.Kajal made her acting debut with Teja’s “Lakshmi Kalyanam”.

“It’s been a pleasure working with him (Teja) as he encourages me to unlearn the nuances I have picked up over the span of my film career and to look at my character and this film with a fresh perspective,” she said.She plays a character called Radha in the film, co-starring Rana Daggubati.

“Secondly, exchange of ideas, opinions and challenges make you think out of the box and I have felt this was possible because of the comfort level I share with Rana. Working with friends is always fun and this has been a fabulous few months,” she said.

Also, “Nene Raju, Nene Mantri” is Kajal’s 50th film and that makes it even more special.Kajal says the film, which will simultaneously release in Tamil, Hindi and Malayalam, will be the best birthday gift as she turns 32 on Monday.

“Nene Raju, Nene Mantri” also stars Catherine Tresa, Navdeep and Ashutosh Rana.Produced by Suresh Babu, the film is gearing up for release soon.

Lavanya Tripathi, who made debut with Andala Rakshasi, has big hits like Bhale Bhale Magadivoy and Soggade Chinni Nayana to her credit. Despite having big hits up her sleeve, Lavanya is yet to get into the big league.

Lavanya has been restricted to doing medium budget films or cast alongside veteran stars. Any actress should get a chance to romance the current superstars to become a star.

For some reason, Tollywood has typecast Lavanya in typical village belle characters or the usual girl-net-door types until now.

The former Miss Uttarakhand surely wants to see herself in glamorous roles on the screen.Although Lavanya isn’t vocal about it, her appearances at public events scream ‘I am looking to be a sex-bomb’.

Lavanya’s latest public appearance at Filmfare awards event proves that she is game for glamour roles. Is TFI watching?

Rakul Preet Singh is currently enjoying numero uno status in Tollywood.With Spyder up her sleeve, Rakul is sure to enjoy the crown of ‘Queen of Telugu cinema’ for some more time.

Meanwhile, she is also eyeing to make it big in Tamil cinema industry with Theeran Athikaram Ondru starring Karthi in the lead role.

Rakul who made successful debut in Bollywood with Yaariyan is all set to rock the Bollywood screens yet again with Neeraj Pandey’s Aiyaary.

Neeraj who is known for special films is making an action thriller in the army backdrop with Siddarth Malhotra as the lead.

Rakul is reportedly signed up for the film.The news isn’t official yet, but many reports from Bollywood media claim that Yaariyan actress has been finalized as the female lead in Aiyaary.

Rakul is also part of Sholay director Ramesh Sippy’s Shimla Mirch that is long due for release.It may hit the screens shortly as Sippy is clearing hurdles at the moment.

For the first time ever, Jr NTR is making his entry on the small screen as a show host. He’s charging a bomb, the biggest amount ever paid to a Telugu celebrity, to host the Telugu version of “Big Boss” which was a decent hit with North Indian television audiences.

While film circles are going gaga over the teaser of this program being aired now, hardcore fans of the actor are literally unhappy. At a time when their hero is getting ready to entertain them on the small screen, why these fans are unhappy? Actually, there is an emotional reason which they started thinking about once the promo is aired multiple times.

“None of the times, Jr NTR has portrayed a Playboy like character on silver screen. Even outside the screen, he’s always a decent guy and keeps away from partying with hot heroines and girls in particular. But this promo showcases him like a James Bond who romanticises many women, which is dimensionally pretty opposite to reality” said a fan, explaining why he’s unhappy.

Though whatever Jr NTR is putting up on the small screen will also be another acting like assignment, it seems like fans are taking it up too personally. Guess what happens if the show gets aired and real spicy content of the program where the host needs to emotionally torment the contestants gets up rolling.

Maintaining that regular touch with social media audiences, always ‘mega’ daughter in law Upasana Konidela makes sure that her revelations are touchy, informative and entertaining. On the occasion of Fathers Day is celebrated in many countries including India today, she has made an interesting post.

Sharing a picture that features her father Anil Kamineni and husband Ram Charan in the frame, Upasana posted, “Similar in so many ways. My all time fav pic #happyfathersday”. And that explains many more things than 1000 words being written about her chemistry with husband Ram Charan.

Previously on other occasions, Upasana stated that Ram Charan is her best friend, a caring lover, and husband and now she compared him to her father. What more a true lover needs to hear from his wife? Even Ram Charan says the same thing about Upasana, as he wishes her on both Women’s Day and Mothers Day as well.

Meanwhile, Charan is shooting for his upcoming “Rangasthalam 1985” in surrounding areas of Rajahmundry and Upasana is flying back and forth to the shooting spot to give company to her husband.
