Famous Five to join YCP soon?

Share

jagan

We are not talking about the characters in a Enid Blyton novel but the five prominent people in Congress during the YSR regime considered to be loyal to YSR.

They are: 1. KVP Ramachandra Rao 2. Undavalli Arun Kumar 3. Harsha Kumar 4. Konathala Ramakrishna and 5. Vatti Vasanth Kumar.

The date and time would be fixed soon and needless to say, this would give a huge boost to the YSRCP which is badly lacking in the presence of seniors.

All these five are capable of hitting back in equal measure at any criticism by TDP and are dyed-in-the wool politicians.

KVP of late has been upping the ante against TDP over Polavaram and daring Naidu for a public debate on the same.

Undavalli is unofficially with the YCP already and Jagan is seeking his advice on various issues. The rest of the names are also equally significant in their respective constituencies and State politics.

Nandamuri Balakrishna’s 100th film Gautami Putra Satakarni has been riding on high expectations from day-1 of shooting. Director Krish and story added more hype to the film, which was finished in just 79 days.

Yes! While many filmmakers are finding it hard to finish off production in short time, director Krish wrapped GPSK in just 79 days, all thanks to his outstanding pre-production work. Having known about the scale of this film, even Baahubali director Rajamouli has expressed shock, wonder and appreciated the remarkable planning of Radhakrishna Jagarlamudi.

Now that the film is in cinemas and getting applauded by everyone, the director is being praised for bringing up an historic genre with so much of art work in such a short time – so, he’s literally made the impossible possible in Tollywood.

Apparently, this accomplishment by Krish also put an end to many questions and doubts about making a film of such degree in such short time with so high quality.

Gautamiputra Satakarni will not just stand as an exemplary on these lines, it will now lesson and leverage the big directors and actors on how to pull out a quality movie so quickly.

Jagan should train under CBN?

War of words are going on for long time between the ruling TDP party and opposition YSRCP. It is known that CM Chandra Babu Naidu and opposition leader Jagan Mohan Reddy have been fighting bitter battle for supremacy to win the 2019 elections.
Ruling TDP started concentrating on developing Rayalaseema and targeted Kadapa, the bastion of Jagan Mohan Reddy.This triggered war of words between TDP and YSRCP leaders. Jagan Mohan Reddy sometime back accused Chandra Babu and his government of leaving Rayalaseema people suffer in drought.
Taking strong exception, Deputy CM KE.Krishna Murthy speaking to scribes said situation in Rayalaseema is worst due to the plundering natural resources in the region by the former’s father, former chief minister Late Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy.
He went on to add that  “Such accusations cannot hold much water. The truth is that former Chief Minister Late Y.S.  Rajasekhara Reddy squandered the resources of the government by giving mobilisation advances to contractors who did not take up projects. Instead, all of them thrived in Bengaluru by taking up real estate projects”,
He asked Jagan instead of being a dissenter, undergo training under Chandra Babu Naidu and become responsible leader. He warned if not people will teach him another fitting lesson to Jagan handing over crushing defeat.

For the first time in his entire career, Nandamuri Balakrishna has got record openings in United States. Usually, Balayya’s films get average openings and the rush gradually increases if the film has good talk else it’d fall flat.

But his magnum opus Gautamiputra Satakarni has proved to be other way around. Teaming up with Krish, film being landmark 100th film and proper promotions since the beginning have all garnered fruitful result.

In what can be a first day record for Balayya, GPSK has grossed USD 367K from 117 locations.

This cemented the hopes of fans and with positive reviews, the film is expected to clock in good numbers in US in its full-run. Let’s see.

Hammayya, Mass Director Anipinchukunnanu: Krish

Director Krish and Balakrishna’s historic epic Gautamiputra Satakarni opened to positive reviews all over. Krish, who worked on the film extensively without any break, is said to be relieved with the thunderous response to film.

Seeing the public euphoria, Krish got emotional as well excited. He shared this with very few media friends outside the theatre. Placing his hands on shoulders of media person, relaxed Krish said,” Hammayya, mass director Anipinchukunnanu!”

This was his first reaction of Krish after seeing GPSK at a theatre in Hyd. He said ‘At Last, I Proved as Mass Director’.

Krish had a tag of sensible filmmaker. Be it Vedam or Gamyam or Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum or even Kanche, Krish has been branded as class director. But for first time he collaborated with star like Balayya for a prestigious film. He was under immense pressure. But Krish did finest job as he elevated heroism quotient. He has shown Balayya on the top.

Right from the beginning to the film’s end, there are several portions where mass elements have been handled well.

Weaponless Balayya fighting with opponents is one of the many key highlights. How Balayya fights with his hands, legs stand out.

With this, Krish has finally proved to be a mass director.

Meanwhile, Krish is relieved but not relaxed as he headed to Vijayawada since AP CM Chandrababu Naidu going to watch the film at special show tonight.

Sankranti is not only popular in Andhra Pradesh for Bhogi fire, rangolis, traditional dances, bull fights but also kite flying. Many regard sankranti as festival of kites and especially in Hyderabad, people start flying kites one month before sankranti.

Now many are wondering what is PM Modi’s note ban’s connection with kite flying. It is known that PM Modi’s sensational decision banning 500,1000 notes affected all sections of people.

Inside talk is even kite making and manja business in the old city,Hyderabad had taken a beating. Wholesale dealers in kites,Mahboob Aziz patang house in Kali Kaman categorically claimed that his sale has dropped by 75 percent this year, solely due to demonetisation.

Modi’s demonetisation drive became so popular that even many kites came showing PM Modi with banned notes. These kites are becoming extremely popular with the buyers. They are enjoying the creativity of kite makers just like they enjoyed the creativity of Ganesh idol makers during Vinayaka Chaviti festival.

Khaidi No 150 Just Falls Short of Baahubali First Record

Megastar Chiranjeevi’s Prestigious 150th film, Khaidi No 150 had a rocking start at the box office on its release day. The movie had registered some very huge numbers in all the areas across the globe. In several areas, the all time records were rewritten setting up new benchmarks for films to come.

The Boss is Back euphoria is similar from Anakapalle to America. The movie has collected $1251K from its Overseas Premieres. It was a whisker away from All Time Record for Overseas Premieres. Baahubali – The Beginning holds the record having collected $1382K from its Premieres. But still, the performance is just phenomenal and unbelievable.

The movie has to get to 2.5 Million Dollars Gross for the breakeven mark and that should not be difficult given the decent Word of Mouth. Some mega fans even expect the movie to get there by this weekend itself. Anyways, Khaidi No 150 stunned everyone with the first territory itself.

Sorry Balayya ! 'Gautamiputra Satakarani' SHOULD STAY BELOW 'Khaidi No 150'

chiru-balayya

We have the next big release ‘Gautamiputra Satakarani’. Chiranjeevi who took Box-Office by storm by releasing ‘Khaidi No 150’ a day earlier has clearly dominated Balayya’s ‘Gautamiputra Satakarani’.

Now, trade sources feel that ‘Gautamiputra Satakarani’ can’t even come close to ‘Khaidi No 150’ as premiere shows itself minted $1 Million with ease. It also became the highest grossing South Indian movie ever by pulling down ‘Kabali’.

So, ‘Balayya’ should be happy with the second place and he must be content with getting positive reviews and good word of mouth alone. Such a humongous record cannot be shattered easily. Let’s see how far ‘Gautamiputra Satakarani’ is going to fare at the Box office in coming days.

Sushma warning to Amazon & its officials

sushma

Union Minister for External Affairs, Sushma Swaraj has always been rhetoric and very responsive to all the queries and concerns of people through her Twitter account. Be it in making tough decisions or lending a helping to those in need, she had always delivered in a convincing way.

As soon as a user on Twitter wrote to the external affairs minister that global e-commerce giant Amazon is selling Indian flag doormats in Canada, she was quick to respond furiously on this issue. Having learnt about this through a photo tweet, Sushma immediately directed the Indian ‘High Commission in Canada’ saying, “This is unacceptable. Please take this up with Amazon at the highest level.”

Angered Sushma also tweeted, “Amazon must render unconditional apology. They must withdraw all products insulting our national flag immediately. If this is not done forthwith, we will not grant India Visa to any Amazon official. We will also rescind the Visas issued earlier.”

Not just the Indian minister, the infuriated Twitterati also took a swipe against Amazon and demanded an apology. It remains to be seen how globally popular Amazon will respond to Sushma Swaraj’s tweet.

GSPK is victory of Telugu people: Balakrishna

Hyderabad: Telugu movie “Gautamiputra Sathakarni” was released in both Andhra Pradesh and Telangana on Thursday with actor Balakrishna claiming that it has received unprecedented response from all sections of people. The popular actor termed this as the victory of Telugu people.

He, along with female lead of the movie Shriya, director Krish and other members of the unit watched the premiere show at Prasad Imax theatre here.

Balakrishna said the film was being appreciated in Telugu states as well as abroad.

He was all praise for Krish and the producer for completing the historical movie in just 79 days.

He was confident that “Gautamiputra Sathakarni” will go down in the film history as one of the landmark movies. He said he was feeling proud to do a role which his father and legendary actor N. T. Rama Rao wanted to play.

The actor said his lifetime wish was fulfilled with this movie.

“This success has increased my responsibilities,” he said.

Gautamiputra Sathakarni was a ruler of the Satavahana Empire in present day Deccan region.

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu, who is the brother-in-law of Balakrishna, will watch the movie in Vijayawada later on Thursday.

The Telangana government has exempted the movie from entertainment tax. Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao had announced this last week when Balakrishna met him.

The epic movie was released a day after megastar Chiranjeevi’s 150th movie “Khaidi No 150” hit the screens. This is Chiranjeevi’s comeback movie after nearly a decade.

Owaisi questions KCR's secret?

MIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi is known for belligerent views when it comes to problems faced by the muslims. He may not have solved the problems of the muslims in reality but he and his party poses as if they are the saviours of muslims.

Owaisi brothers remain close to the parties in power and enjoy the fruits of power weilding iron like grip in old city. Of late MIM is aggressively attacking the ruling TRS party and CM KCR after KCR decided to support PM Modi on demonetisation.

Owaisi this time chose to question KCR government’s secret. Firing on all cylinders he questioned why Telangana government failed to table the Bhaskara Rao Commission report on Mecca Masjid firing in legislative assembly .

Taking on KCR government on twitter he posted “The Telangana govt should place report on 17 when Assembly meets why is it being kept in wraps as some sort of “State Secret“ .

Speaking to scribes he said “Though the TRS government was not in power then, the facts have to come out.The purpose of the commission of inquiry would fail if people are not told of its conclusions, whatever they may be. Action taken reports should be there. The people have a right to know.“

Owaisi’s counsel, SR.Mahajir, renowned lawyer said “The police version was false. And people must be held accountable.“

CBN twitter hacking a political stunt?

People are left wondering whether the news of AP CM Chandra Babu Naidu’s twitter account getting hacked is a mere political stunt. It is known that reports came out that AP cyber crime investigating wing started investigations after getting an alert from CMOs office about the twitter account of Chandra Babu getting hacked.

Couple of days back tweets praising Natasimha Balakrishna’s Gautami Putra Satakarni came out from Chandra Babu’s twitter account. This shocked everyone as already huge controversy erupted with AP cops denying permission to Mega Star Chiranjeevi’s 150 film Khaidi No 150 pre release function at Vijayawada.

When cops denied permissions for benefit shows too, mega fans cried foul saying the ruling TDP government started playing politics showing undue favours to Balakrishna’s Gautami Putra Satakarni as Chiranjeevi happened to be the MP from rival Congress party.
Controversy increased with AP government giving tax exemption to Balakrishna’s Satakarni while sometime back denied the same to Gunasekhar’s historical film Rudramadevi. Many felt that Chandra Babu’s son Lokesh used his dad’s twitter account to promote his uncle, father in law Balakrishna’s film Satakarni.
Now after the dual stand got exposed, they enacted a political stunt claiming that the account has been hacked.

Naidu's Coverts In Sakshi?

sakshi

Looks as if we are back in the age of Chanakya! Sources informed us that there is credible information to prove that at least 15 journalists in Sakshi owned by YS Jagan Mohan Reddy are working indirectly for Chandrababu Naidu.

In other words, they are now coverts of Naidu. Their job is to tone down any adverse reports against the government, inform Naidu beforehand of any negative news unearthed against him or the TDP so that they are prepared in advance and do everything possible within their means to protect the interests of the TDP!

Now the issue has been brought directly to the notice of YS Jagan and we can definitely expect a few heads to roll!

What Is This Chandrababu Naidu?

chandrababu-naidu_cdk_505_051614091401-1

When YS Jagan asked people to vent their anger on Chandrababu Naidu with slippers, he was thoroughly rebuked by the ruling party leaders and political analysts for having used unparliamentary language.

But today, TDP MP JC Diwakar Reddy is using vulgar language against YS Jagan in the presence of the Chief Minister himself.

Instead of making an effort to curtail him, the Chief Minister is merely smiling and thereby prodding Diwakar Reddy on. This has happened twice now. How can the TDP lament over the language used by YS Jagan and then encourage something similar in a more extreme form?

Where will this lead to? And the sad part is that Diwakar Reddy would probably keep on at it until his brother is given a cabinet post or something. And the TDP will not give him one because they might fear that JC would stop his criticism after the post is given.
