Megastar Chiranjeevi is credited for taking dances in films to new heights with his signature grace in the 90s. He not just inspired tollywood but his contemporaries across all film industries to entertain fans with sterling dances. In the younger generation, we have several good dancers and picking the best among them is the toughest thing for any film buff. Now, a noted media house named ‘The Top Tens’ has come up with the list of best dancers in India after conducting an online poll.

In this poll, NTR Jr has been crowned as the best dancer in India. He secured 23 percent votes. Hrithk Roshan and stylish star Allu Arjun were ranked 2nd and 3rd with 22 and 11 percent votes respectively. Megastar Chiranjeevi, who has stunned everyone with his dances in his comeback film Khaidi No,150 was bestowed upon with 10th position.

Dance masters Prabhu Deva and Raghava Lawrence were ranked 4th and 5th respectively. Dancing divas Madhuri Dixit and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan secured 6ht and 9th positions. Ram Charan was placed at No.17.

Details like how many people participated in the poll, to which region they belong and whose fans they are etc. cant be elicited. Nevertheless, Nandamuri fans are elated and mega fans are not too pleased watching megastar and Charan at such low ranks.

The Superstar actress and reigning queen of Tollywood, Samantha Ruth Prabhu has stepped into a new spell in her career – as she’s engaged and would be getting married to Naga Chaitanya. Ever since her relationship with Chay popped out, the actress failed to gain Telugu offers for the reasons best known to all. There’s plenty of chatter about Samantha not getting any films.

However, she managed to put an end to that phase by agreeing to star in Sukumar-Ram Charan’s yet-to-titled project. The latest buzz in Tollywood circles is that Samantha will be teaming up with her to-be ‘Mama’ (father-in-law) Nagarjuna for an upcoming horror film- ‘Raju Gari Gadhi-2’. This is touted to be her first film agreement after engagement and second film with Nag after Manam.

The Akkineni actor is already part of the project, to be directed by Ohmkar, and with Sam coming on board, the film will certainly get bigger. For now, it is less known about her role in the film which would hit floors very soon. Some section of industry folks wonder whether Nagarjuna influenced the makers to have her onboard or was it completely their choice!

As things will get more clearer picture soon, definitely it’s going to be a tough task for Ohmkar to handle such a big star cast. The film, to be rolled out under PVP Cinema banner, has Thaman scoring music tunes and Diwakaran as cinematographer.

Chiranjeevi lending his voice for Rana Daggubati starrer Ghazi is known by now. And the latest is that the makers are planning to launch a new trailer of Ghazi with Chiru’s voice over. This new trailer will be unveiled on grand scale at Visakha Utsav 2017. On the second day of the Utsav, it will be unveiled among the large crowds and will see the attendance of Rana and the film’s producer, director.

Based on a crucial incident from the 1971’s Indo-Pak war, Ghazi is directed by debutant Sankalp and the film also features Taapsee and Atul Kulkarni in significant roles. With a run-time of 2.03 hours, the film is said to be a slick and racy war drama and happens to be India’s first-ever underwater drama. Matinee Entertainment and PVP Cinema are jointly producing this film in Telugu, Tamil and Hindi on Feb 17. Karna Johar’s Dharma Productions is releasing the film in Hindi.

Meanwhile, Visakha Utsav is launched on Friday by Union Minister M Venkaiah Naidu. The beach road is the venue for all the events. All necessary arrangements have been made.  With grand preparations and colourful lighting arranged for the utsav, the beach road wore a festive look.

The whole team of Ghazi is expecting to get a good mileage with this latest trailer having Chiru’s voice over being launched at Visakha Utsav.

Rangoon movie trailer has made people almost forget about her controversies and allegations in rumored affair with Hrithik Roshan. Kangana Ranaut did not step back with her version about affair with Hrithik and she stuck to her stand, but that is a different story altogether.

Here in the picture, Kangana Ranaut posed in her vintage attire, for a photo shoot needed for her movie Rangoon. One cannot miss observing her satin dress and sex looks from her ‘side’. Well, that’s just a sample and expect more from her in Rangoon soon.

Young hero Sharwanand’s Sankranthi release ‘Shatamanam Bhavati’ withstood the competition from Megastar and Balayya’s films but it had to exit from several theatres once Natural Star Nani arrived with his latest film.

It is known that Dil Raju is the producer of both Sharwa’s film and Nani starrer ‘Nenu Local’. He had earlier used his grip on theatres in major areas and secured prime theatres for Shatamanam Bhavati. Thanks to good content and Raju’s strategy, SB continued to rake in decent moolah until now.

However, many of the screens of SB have now been allotted for Nenu Local, applying breaks to its glorious run. Dil Raju had to make this choice to place his new film, Nenu Local in prime theatres.

SB has already collected close to Rs 30 Cr worldwide share and it was looking good to add a few more crores to its tally but Nani’s film has spoiled the chances of Sharwa.

Versatile actor Prakash Raj and choreographer Pony Varma’s son Vedhant turned 1 today. On the happy occasion, the excited mother took to social media and shared this adorable pic.

The little Vedhant has already started striking poses to camera it seems. Why not, he got the blood of Prakash Raj in him. Like Father, Like Son.

Gopichand is now officially Gautham Nanda. His upcoming actioner’s title in Sampath Nandi direction is declared as Gautham Nanda.

First look of the film is released today. Gopichand went for a drastic changeover and is appearing distinctively stylish. Sampath Nandi took maximum care in Gopichand’s exceptional character design. With those trendy costumes and funky casual hair style, Gopichand is sure to steal the hearts. A journey into the self, the movie tagline is also philosophically touching.

Gautham Nanda is a packed action entertainer bankrolled on huge budget by J Bhagavan and J Pulla Rao. Music composed by SS Thaman while Hansika and Catherine played heroines.

Sometimes, the kind of decisions our heroes take on particular scripts truly wonder and disappoint film lovers. That’s what we have to say about Pawan Kalyan’s Katamarayudu as well.

Ajith’s Tamil film ‘Veeram’ is a routine faction film where the hero changes his path for the sake of his love. Featuring Tamanna in the lead opposite Ajith, the film was a good hit at Tamil box office. Like many producers who bank on Tamil hits to rake in some immediate moolah, a producer got the film’s dubbing rights and brought it here as ‘Veerudokkade’.

Irrespective of such feat, the film’s remake is planned and somehow Pawan Kalyan has accepted to do it. Though they say that he has taken just the plot line but everything else is changed, none can’t believe it until movie releases.

What’s more pain is that, a TV channel is airing this dubbed version ‘Veerudokkade’ almost every week and all the family viewers are catching glimpses of it. Now that most Telugu cinema lovers are getting to watch this Tamil version of Katamarayudu, Pawan’s film will invite the brunt of comparisons from day one itself.

Whatever the reason maybe, Katamarayudu will not be a cake walk if masses fail to connect to it.

Malar! She is better known and liked by that name, though she is actually Sai Pallavi. Now this woman is most desirable according to a poll and results by Kochi Times, surpassing all the other beautiful heroines.

That’s is no surprise, because Malar literally stole many hearts with her lecturer role in Nivin Pauly’s Premam and is making her Telugu debut with Fidaa in Sekhar Kammula direction and pairing Varun Tej.

Looks like the most desirable woman is soon moving towards taking the top slot in Telugu filmdom too.

These is no doubt Nani has good market in the US but hardly anyone might have expected him to more than double his previous best with his latest release ‘Nenu Local’.

As per reliable trade reports, Nenu Local has raked in $161K from Thursday premiers. This number surpasses the previous best of Nani, $72K (Gentleman) by an unbelievable 125 per cent.

Nani is currently in the US and the news of the Natural Star attending the premiers might also have persuaded his fans to throng to the theatres, resulting in the highest premiere collections.

The film has received average to above average reviews and Nani will be in the US for another month. If he decides to attend a few more shows, Nenu Local could well become Nani’s second million dollar film.

Hero Gopichand’s upcoming action entertainer in Sampath Nandi direction is geared for first look release on February 4th.

Produced by J Bhagawan and J Pulla Rao, this high budgeted and technically top end project has Gopichand in a stylish makeover.

Makers have released Gopichand’s modish silhouette as pre look. Hansika Motwani, Catherine Tresa have played female leads while SS Thaman composed the music.

Dr. Rajasekhar, the versatile actor who acquired the image of an angry young man through such films as ‘Ankusham’, ‘Magadu’ and ‘Aagraham’, is one of the most loved all-round actors in the history of Telugu cinema. He is currently doing an action entertainer in the direction of Praveen Sattaru.

Titled as ‘PSV Garuda Vega 126.18M’, the film is produced by Jyostar Enterprises and presented by Shivani Shivathmika Movies.

Currently, certain action episodes are being shot in a crucial schedule in Bangkok and the same will go on up to Feb 15th.

The director, having made the critically-acclaimed ‘Chandamama Kathalu’ and the adult comedy ‘Guntur Talkies’, is out to unveil a stylish and suave Rajasekhar in this flick.

As the actor celebrates his birthday on 4th Feb, the film’s First Look was released by the makers, who are going to reveal more details soon.

Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma, who gives sleepless nights to celebrities with his razor sharp tweets, has targeted celebs of almost every film industry every once in a while. Mega family is the most affected victim of Varma’s satires on twitter.

In the last one month, all the three mega brothers have reacted to Varma’s comments on separate occasions. First, Naga Babu breathed fire on Varma during Khaidi No.150 pre-releae event. Usage of words like ‘Akku Pakshi’ is a testimonial of how frustrated he was with the ‘Siva’ maker’s tweets.

Later, during an interview, Chiru softly criticized Varma for degrading his own stature with such unnecessary criticism of others. Pawan Kalyan went a step ahead and commented that he wouldn’t deal with a person who claims openly of watching porn despite having a married daughter.

Now, mega daughter Sushmitha also has some strong words for Varma. She said that mega family laughs off RGV’s tweets over lunch and dinners. ‘There is freedom of expression in this country and anyone can say anything. But, those saying only negative things should be blocked from social media,’ she said firmly.

Although Sushmita said that mega family takes Varma’s comments lightly, their reactions explain how frustrated they all are. Varma has already retorted in his usual witty manner to Naga Babu and Pawan’s comments.Let’s see how Varma reacts to Sushmita’s fresh comments.

NTR doing a triple role in his next is common information. Tentatively titled as Jai Lava Kusa, Tarak would be playing as villain in one of the three roles.

However, the latest buzz is that there’s no heroine for the NTR’s third role that see him in negative role. Usually, heroes taking up roles with negative shades isn’t uncommon. Even Nani was last seen in such role in “Gentleman”. But usually, such roles turn out to be positive as the movie progresses towards the end.

But not even having a heroine opposite NTR’s bad role is something drawing suspicion and hinting that this could had been a full-length role with negative touch.

Meanwhile, two leading ladies Nivetha Thomas, Rashi Khanna have been roped in opposite NTR for the film.

Touted to be an adaptation of Ajith-starrer Godfather which also saw Ajith in three roles including a villain shade role, the moot question is how director Bobby would handle this project. As informed earlier, the film will be launched on Feb 10th and it will roll onto the floors from Feb 15th.

Tarak has now hit gym to shed his weight that he gained after Janatha Garage. After Jai Lava Kusa, NTR would team up with Trivikram Srinivas.
