Kajal Agarwal who has recently scored a blockbuster with Khaidi No. 150 is back in demand in Tollywood.

She is being flooded with offers from Telugu cinema industry, but Kajal is currently very busy in Tamil cinema that she couldn’t allot dates for Telugu movies.

Although Kajal’s paycheck in Tollywood is bigger than that of her Kollywood’s salary, the actress is so busy with her prior commitments that she couldn’t take up any new assignments.

She has three Tamil films on hands besides Teja’s Nene Raju Nene Mantri at the moment.

It will take at least a year for Kajal to complete all the films. So until then our makers have to search for other options.

It is amazing that an actress who was considered a flop heroine until few months ago has turned out to be the most sought after with one success.

We’re not talking about Movie Artists Association (MAA) but popular Telugu entertainment channel MAA TV which is now rechristened as Star MAA after Star India Network acquired it. Here comes how this popular channel is targeting Nandamuri Balakrishna after Megastar Chiranjeevi.

Cheap Politics on Bhuma's Death

Share

bhuma2

Even before the final rites of Bhuma were done, the dirty politics by a section of media and a few politicians have begun over the untimely death of Nandyala legislator and TDP senior leader Bhuma Nagi Reddy. A section of the media started spreading baseless speculations that Bhuma allegedly had underwent ‘frustration’ and ‘disappointment’ for apparently ‘denying’ ministry by Chandrababu Naidu and this could had caused cardiac-arrest.

If this isn’t enough, they have even linked it to Bhuma’s meeting with Chandrababu a day (Saturday) before he breathed his last.

However, in a sharp contrast, Bhuma had openly stated in his last TV interview (‘Encounter’ to TV9), that he hadn’t joined TDP for ministry or power and clarified that he’d be very fine even if he wasn’t given ministry in the cabinet. Bhuma had also clearly stated that he had no longer had differences with Shilpa brothers and other politicians in the district. It can also be recalled that Bhuma and Shilpa brothers have buried their differences and vowed to work together for the party in the district.

This is not all. Even health-wise, Bhuma had already suffered heart-attack twice and underwent bypass surgery. And Bhuma wasn’t well and he was undergoing medical tests till the last ten days. Even Bhuma reportedly told to Naidu that his health isn’t good and Chandrababu said to had asked Bhuma to take care of his health first.

Going  by all these, it’s certainly evident that a section is deliberately doing dirty politics over Bhuma’s unfortunate death.

When Shopclues co-founder Sandeep Aggarwal had no clue but written his personal feelings on Facebook, he accused his wife Radhika Aggarwal of having an illicit affair.

Sandeep Aggarwal founded one of the popular e-commerce website, Shopclues along with Radhika Aggarwal and Sanjay Sethi in 2011. But he had left the company in 2013 after he was arrested by FBI in the US on charges of insider trading at his previous organisation. He later started a new company called ‘Droom’.

On Sunday, Sandeep accused his wife Radhika, the current business officer at Shopclues, of having an illicit affair with Sanjay Sethi and taking away his voting rights from the company. He posted on his Facebook account,’Things people do to be famous and faking to be way too cooler than they actually are!!!’

He added, ” illicit love affair with once own boss while husband is away dealing with biggest family crisis”, referring her affair with Sanjay. He also went on to accuse her with, “changing web history, tampering with Wikipedia and lying in the press.”

Now with everything is in public domain, the response from the third co-founder, Sanjay is awaited in this regard.

Sunny's Costly Dance Failed To Attract!!

Director Puri Jagan for some unknown reason has roped in seductress Sunny Leone to shake a leg at “Rogue” audio launch last night, though she’s not related to the movie in any angle.

Guess what, huge money was doled out to bring this struggling Bollywood hottie to fly to Hyderabad and shake her waist at the audio launch. But what was expected to be a sizzling treat from the former adult-film-star has now become a damp squib. Sunny Leone looked like any other dancer with regular charms who perform at Telugu audio functions many times.

More than Sunny Leone’s dance, hot charms of Rogue movie’s second heroine Angela Krislincki have caught the attention of many. Also, Mannara Chopra pulled out an interesting performance on the stage with her catchy expressions. At the same time all other struggling heroines, models and wannabe-heroines present at the venue, made the event look like a promotional campaign of Puri’s very own agency, Puri Connects. That engulfed the presence of Sunny in dark clouds.

In the meantime, a little birdie reveals us that it is producer CR Manohar who has spent lavishly to bring Sunny Leone to Hyderabad such that the event would get immense attention. Had he brought any star Telugu hero, the attention would have got intensified many times, isn’t it?

The Dark Side Of Holi With Heroines

Other day its Holi and we have few hotties wishing for it, while others advised keeping dogs safe from synthetic colours as usual. And more than that, invitations for poolside Holi parties with some heroines invited as chief guests, might have caught your attention.

Some event management companies hold these special Holi bashes with some struggling heroines and popular-but-no-work kind of starlets as guests. Many say that people spend around 3000 to 7000 rupees to own tickets of these bashes just for these hotties. Yes, to satisfy their craving to look at film celebs drenched completely wet. Isn’t this too regressive?

And a ‘deleted’ tweet from director Ram Gopal Varma is in tandem with these claims. “Don’t know what which rakshas did nd why God killed him but I thank both for giving me opportunity to see girl next door in wet clothes” (sic) tweeted Varma on Sunday night, though he deleted it by Monday morning. Whether these words are hurting anyone or not, surely they are revealing how few mindsets are still working.

At the bottom line, these Holi bashes are just turning events where sick-minds keep ogling at assets of women who are wet in white clothes. Especially these bashes with heroines are getting attention for the same. That’s a truly dark side!!

Critically acclaimed director Krish has made diverse films in his short career. After making his debut with a Road film and successfully helming a historical film in his latest attempt, Krish is reportedly planning to try out something new again.

Media reports suggest that Krish has registered ‘Chora’ title under his First Frame Entertainments banner. Going by the title, it may be a heist film or anther periodic film from this unpredictable director. For now, nothing is finalized and we need to wait for some more time to get details.

After proving himself with GPSK as a potential director to helm big projects, Krish wanted to make a socio-fantasy with senior hero Venkatesh. The project however was shelved in discussion stage itself. There was even talk of Krish directing Akshay Kumar in a Bollywood film but no official confirmation has come out in that regard.

KCR Turning Out To Be A Hitler!

Telangana Rashtra Samithi president and chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao is gradually turning out to be another Hitler for his opponents, if his plan to introduce a legislation to throw his critics behind the bars is any indication.

This was pointed out by Telangana Congress MLC Ponguleti Sudhakar Reddy on Monday.

He described the “Prove or Perish law” proposed to be introduced by the Telangana Government as a “draconian law” aimed at stifling the voice of the Opposition.

Speaking to the media at the Assembly Media Point, Sudhakar Reddy said that such an Act thought of by KCR exposed his feudal and Hitlerism mentality.

It also exposed the fear psychosis of the chief minister about his administration being exposed for all its omissions and commissions, he observed.

Ponguleti declared that the Congress party would not be cowed down by such unconstitutional and undemocratic measures of the TRS Government and would continue to strive and expose the misdeeds of the present regime.

Now, whose seat is Nandyal anyway?

Share

bhuma

It has been a tradition in the Andhra Pradesh politics for several years that if a sitting MLA of a political party dies, the other parties will not field their candidates in the by-elections to enable any of the members of the deceased MLA elected unopposed.

Though this was violated in Telangana, it is still being followed in Andhra Pradesh. So, it is expected that the same tradition is followed in the case of Nandyal assembly seat, which has now fallen vacant with the sudden death of sitting MLA Bhuma Nagi Reddy due to heart attack on Sunday.

However, the tricky question now is which political party should stake claim for the Nandyal seat? Bhuma got elected on the YSR Congress party ticket, but shifted his loyalties to the TDP only last year. Yet, he continues to be a YSR Congress party MLA technically as per the assembly records.

As such, the Nandyal seat belongs to the YSRC. Bhuma’s son or daughter should contest on YSRC ticket and all the other parties should not field its candidate to see that he or she gets elected unopposed.

But, going by the TDP leaders’s point of view, Bhuma was a TDP MLA for all practical purposes and was even tipped for the cabinet berth. So, his family members should contest on the TDP ticket and all the other parties should not field their candidates.

So, whose seat is Nandyal? YSRC or the TDP? Well, it is better leave it to Bhuma’s family, rather than fighting on technicalities and traditions. For now, it looks like contest is inevitable in Nandyal with both the parties sticking to their guns.

Charan's No Parking & Speeding Fines

It is undeniable that people follow celebs and take inspiration from them. If a celeb takes the initiative of a good cause, it will surely send a positive message across the society and this is the reason why govt. ropes in celebs to endorse its initiatives. But, what kind of message people will get if celebs themselves are found to have indulged in unlawful deeds?

In order to ease the administration, the govt. has started putting data of every registered person including of the celebs in its various e-domains. Taking this as an advantage, some miscreants are unearthing data of celebs and spreading it on social media if they come across even a slight aberration.

Among other celebs, Ram Charan’s traffic fouls have now been unearthed by these miscreants. As per this data, Charan was fined by traffic police on as many as five occasions and he is yet to pay the penalty amounts. He was fined after his Black Range Rover was caught overspeeding on Outer Ring Road (ORR) and found parked at no-parking places. Irrespective of whether the mistake was committed by Charan or his driver, name of the actor only got into police records as he is the owner of the vehicle.

When private information like this comes into public domain, the image of any celeb gets endangered. It may also send a wrong message to masses. It is the responsibility of celebs to lead people in lawful path.

There used to be a time when people have no idea about their favorite celebs’ private life except their silver screen image. Nowadays, the lives of celebs have become like open books. With the advent of technology, celebs have become soft targets for opportunistic miscreants who keep searching for new means to malign their image. With a massive image in public at stake, celebs now need to more careful than ever regarding their data on e-platforms.

OMG! It's Balayya After Katamarayudu

Class music director Anup Rubens, who surprised everyone by bagging a mass entertainer as big as Pawan Kalyan’s ‘Katamarayudu’, has reportedly signed to score music for another big project, Balayya’s 101st film to be directed by Puri Jagannath.

From a combination as massy as Balakrishna Nandamuri and Puri Jagannath, one would expect full mass songs. If not Devi Sri Prasad, at least Thaman was expected to be brought on board for this project but Puri opted for Anup.

One can’t downplay Anup’s talent but his rise to stardom is attributed to his class compositions. Although he has scored for powerful films like Katamarayudu and NTR’s Temper, he is yet to be recognized as a potential composer for mass movies.

Puri, who is making a powerful action entertainer starring Balayya, however kept his faith in Anup after having been impressed with his earlier collaborations in ‘Heart Attack’, ‘Temper’, and ‘Ism’. This will be the first time Anup will be scoring for a Balakrishna starrer.

Anup’s work for Katamarayudu is nonetheless receiving applause from Pawan fans so Nandamuri fans might not be too worried regarding #NBK101.
