Actor-MP Chiranjeevi, who is in New Delhi to attend parliament, rushed to Hyderabad as soon as he got to know about the illness of film director and former union coal minister Dasaryana Rao who’s admitted to ICU in a private hospital in Hyd.

Suffering from severe infection in lungs and kidneys, Dasari is put on ventilator and a team of specialists are taking care of him. According to the medical bulletin released by the hospital, Dasari is on dialysis and being provided constant support. Doctors said that Dasari is responding to the treatment.

Dasari Narayana Rao would soon undergo a surgery in chest to control the infection. An update on his health condition would be stated by doctors after the surgery.

Mohan Babu is presently aiding Dasari in this crucial moment and taking care of him in the hospital.

Dasari was last seen as the chief guest for Chiranjeevi’s pre-release function. Dasari shares great bond with Chiru as the twain have worked for several films together and most of them have done well at the Box Office. On several occasions, Chiru said that Dasari is like his family member.

Pawan Kalyan is supposed to work for a film in latter’s production and both have announced sometime back but it hasn’t materialised yet.

This invited flak from Nandamuri fans. Despite heavy pressure from fans, none of the GPSK members have announced any Box Office numbers.

Now probably for the first-time nearly after 20 days long-battle, none other than the film’s lead protagonist took potshots at rivals, although indirectly.

Speaking at his felicitation by TSR, Balayya made some interesting comments and this is now becoming talking point in industry circuit since last night.

In the presence of film & political big wigs SS Rajamouli, Venkatesh Daggubati, Kavuri Sambasiva Rao, Daggubati Purandeswari & Venkateswara Rao, Jayasudha, Tamanna, Vishnu Manchu, Manchu Manoj and all the distributors of Gautamiputra Satakarni – Sai Korrapati, Nizam Sudhakar Reddy, Balayya said, “Everyone knows which film has collected more. But we’re neither interested in numbers nor in records. My fans will take care of them. They know where to place my films and make them stand at which position. Fans are everything to me.”

Though these comments seem to be made generally, but inner meaning is clear that Balayya took potshots at Chiru’s Khaidi No.150. Needless to say that Balayya has opened up the Pandora’s Box.

Alia Bhatt, who has the quintessential image of a cute actress, courtesy her innocent and beautiful face, has time and again proved that she can look as sexy as any of those ravishing sirens.

For a latest magazine shoot, Alia has confidently pulled off a seductive look by posing in a denim shirt, revealing her toned assets in a black lingerie underneath. The confident posture and her alluring expressions will no doubt slay beauty lovers.

In an industry full of sentiments and emotions, definitely anything that happens for the good will turn into a sentiment. Mega fans are right now boasting about one such sentiment that will happen to directors if they work this camp’s heroes.

Before Khaidi No. 150 happened, VV Vinayak was carrying the burden of Akhil’s disastrous performance at box office. An Akhil that stunned Akhil has taken down Vinayak emotionally for a while. But with Kaththi remake, he bounced back in time and should be thanking Megastar Chiru as well for the mega feat.

Similarly we have Harish Shankar worried with the unexpected fate of Ramayya Vastavayya at box office before Saidharam Tej’s Subrahmanya For Sale brought him into limelight again. He’s now working with another mega camp hero Allu Arjun on DJ Duvvada Jagannadham. Kick 2’s disastrous result has shown impact until Dhruva happened for Surender Reddy. Working on Ram Charan’s remake idea worked out big time for this stylish director and now he’s likely to direct Chiru’s 151st film based on freedom fighter Uyyalawada Narasimha Reddy’s story.

However Sreenu Vaitla didn’t took this mega golden touch as he delivered a dud like Bruce Lee with Ram Charan after giving a disaster like Aagadu with Mahesh. But if he proves with Varun Tej’s Mister, then maybe this belief of Mega camp giving hits to those directors whose last film is a huge flop, will be a ‘golden’ sentiment for sure.

Income Tax officials on Tuesday raided the office of Gautamiputra Satakarni producer Rajeev Reddy and the office of the film’s Nizam distributor Sudhakar Reddy. The I-T Department initiated the raids only sometime ago and the raids are presently going on simultaneously at First Frame Entertainment office near Filmnagar and Sreshth Movies office near Jubilee Hills checkpost.

The film released on Jan 12 opened to unanimous reviews all over and been faring well at the ticket windows. The state governments of AP and Telangana have waived off the Entertainment Tax to the film and this resulted in  good profits to distributors, producers.

Starring Balakrishna, Shriya Saran and Hema Malini in stellar roles, the film has done nearly 60 Crore share worldwide including 1.7 Million USD gross in US alone.

Meanwhile, it needs to be seen whether similar raids would be conducted on Khaidi No.150 that grossed Rs 150 Crore world-wide, or not.

Veteran Telugu filmmaker and former Union Minister Dasari Narayana Rao has been hospitalized earlier this morning. Reportedly, he is undergoing treatment for lung disease at KIMS hospital in Hyderabad.

A special team of doctors are monitoring the condition of Dasari in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Reports are emerging that his condition is stable now .

Team Gulte prays for the speedy recovery of the Telugu film industry’s legend.

The eagerly awaited project of Pawan Kalyan and Trivikram is finding itself in tricky situations one after another.

This project was was expected to go on floors by the end of last year itself. However, Pawan later decided to wrap up ‘Katamarayudu’ entirely by January and then move to Trivikram’s project. Needless to say, Pawan’s political stints are forcing the shoot of Katamarayudu go at snail pace, giving hints of March end or April commencement of shoot for Trivikram’s film.

If Pawan Kalyan’s political commitments are a worrisome factor for Trivikram, film’s producer S Radha Krishna and the star’s devoted fans, now joined him the busiest acterss of South, Keerthy Suresh, to cause further possible delays.

Responding to the rumors of reshoots for ‘Nenu Local’, Nani has revealed that the inability of Keerthy in allotting dates pushed his film from December to February. As Nani’s films are medium budgeted ones, he could withstand the delay but what if she causes similar delay to Pawan-Trivikram’s film?

Keerthy currently has a slew of projects in Tamil and Malayalam including Pawan’s film. Because of her busy call sheets, makers of her films are already rescheduling their shoots. Trivikram on the other hand has already invested a lot of time on this project and he might not like further delays.

Coming to Pawan’s film, not even the actor is sure of when he can attend the shoot, courtesy his political endeavors. Considering Keerthy’s busy schedules and Pawan’s double-duty, fans are worried of when the project would complete its shoot!!

Actor Allu Arjun has reportedly warned some female models at a Sangeet party. And that was neither at a pub nor at a party, but on the sets of his upcoming film ‘Duvvada Jagannadham’ (DJ), directed by Harish Shankar. Recently, the movie unit roped in few dancing models to shoot a Sangeet scene who reportedly irked Bunny.

The actor, known for cool and compose nature, lost temper at those models after getting irritated by their behavior on sets. Given the absolutely large and beautiful sets, erected to shoot Sangeet event for DJ, it would not have stopped the excitement of models who went into a frenzy with continuous photos, group stills and selfies.

Annoyed with their hullabaloo in between the shoot, Stylish star seems to have ordered the movie unit to make sure no single photo or selfie goes out of sets. Recognizing the fact that it could make more damage, he asked them not to allow mobile phones while the shoot is underway.

Considering the expectations and hype around DJ, Bunny is pumping in all the hard work which he does not want to get revealed, or leaked. Clearly, it shows his care and concern toward the film which is being bankrolled by Dil Raju under SVC banner.

It’s been four days SS Rajamouli released the latest poster from his magnum opus Baahubali: The Conclusion in four different languages including Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam and Hindi. As expected, the posters featuring the power couple Amarendra Baahubali (Prabhas) and Devasena (Anushka) have gone viral online cutting across languages.

However, critics and detractors online have been pointing out at couple of ‘silly’ mistakes in the third poster of the second part of Baahubali.

The poster sees Amarendra Baahubali and Devasena sporting bows and arrows and take aim. And the bows that Prabhas, Anushka carry are no ordinary ones but one that can shoot three arrows at one go. Well, this is fine.

Mistakes

* The arrows of Amarendra overlap on Devasena’s bow. Amarendra’s arrows in brown colour are seen overlapping on Devasena’s white bow in the poster. This is one glaring mistake being pointed out by netizens as they’re questioning how it could be possible when Devasena is standing in front of Amarendra.

* While the arrows of Amarendra are in equal length, the arrows of Devasena are uneven. Especially, the middle arrow of Devasna appears to be lengthy compared to the two other arrows. This is also being pointed out by a few curious, passionate Baahubali lovers online.

Since Rajamouli himself described the pose from an artistic sequence in the film, one is wondering how Rajamouli, who is well-known for his perfection and revered as Mr Perfectionist, missed such simple logics and failed to correct them before releasing out. One has to wait and see whether there would be any explanation from the Rajamouli himself or from his team.

Meanwhile, it can be recalled that even the first two posters – Amarendra Baahubali and Bhallaladeva – from Baahubali: The Conclusion weren’t received well. While many have said Amarendra’s poster from Baahubali : The Conclusion wasn’t on par with Shivudu’s poster from Baahubali: The Beginning, the poster of Bhallaladeva from the second part was ridiculed for his “cartoon”, “video-game” type costumes he wore.

Hope, Rajamouli would be extra conscious now onwards and make sure such mistakes won’t repeat again.

PS: The mentioned points are being circulated as mistakes on social media platforms and the views expressed here are elaborated from them.

Buyers who paid astronomical amounts for Sardar Gabbar Singh were in for a huge jolt as the movie failed miserably at the box-office.

Some of the buyers were so badly affected that they were not seen in public for a long time. To offset their losses, Pawan Kalyan and Sharat Marar had reportedly promised the buyers that they would be given Katamarayudu for a low price.

Now Katamarayudu is almost complete. But Sharat and Pawan are said to be looking for new buyers.

Hearing about this, the old team who were promised Katamarayudu met Sharat and reminded him of his and Pawan’s promise to them. But Sharat said that they (buyers) could not afford the rates of Katamarayudu.

Against this backdrop, an argument was also said to have taken place between the buyers and Sharat Marar. Hopefully, the Jana Sena chief would stick to his word in politics at least.

Shraddha Kapoor, who is reeling under the impact of two disasters, ‘Rock On 2’ and ‘OK Jaanu’, is apparently saying goodbye to her team of managers and even looking for a fresh new PR agency to give her career a facelift.

Our sources tell us her father, industry veteran Shakti Kapoor will perhaps look into her professional matters, like so many other star dads.

Incidentally her next film ‘Half Girlfriend’ is slated for a summer release. And those who have seen a sneak peak say it could well be the film to restore some of Shraddha’s lost glory.

Apparently she’s looking lovely as the Delhi girl who wins baseballer Arjun Kapoor’s heart. Renewed energy and fresh ‘management’ tricks could just be that what this actor needs.

Fans are deeply upset over the delay in the release of the teaser of Pawan’s Katamarayudu. The teaser, which was originally planned for Jan 26 release, has been deferred due to the special conditions in Andhra Pradesh where youth were prepping up for a Jallikattu-type silent protests at RK Beach in Vizag.

Taking note of the situation, producer has announced that the teaser has been postponed without announcing the fresh date. The situation is no different even after the issue is over as AP government, cops foiled the protest.

Even four days after the issue, there’s no clarity on when the teaser would be out. Fans on social networking sites are expressing their angst & curiosity and asking producer Sharrath Marar to release the teaser.

“The teaser for #KatamaRayudu  will be released soon. Will announce the date shortly. Thanks for the support,” tweeted the production house.

This tweet has further disappointed the fans who’re waiting for the teaser as they expected at least a date confirmation if not the teaser.
