Do You Love Chiru? Pawan Will Like You!!

pk

From a long time, an interesting question is being asked in political and film circles about Pawan Kalyan and the kinds of persons he likes. Of course he loves honest and credible persons, and always treats his well-wishers with utmost respect. But the point here is, if someone has too much of love or hate for other mega heroes, especially Megastar Chiranjeevi, will Pawan like them?

In the wake of political differences erupting between Pawan and Chiranjeevi, and the younger brother walking a separate political path, many think that hating or criticising Chiranjeevi will bring them closer to Pawan Kalyan. But that’s not true. According to some information, the Janasena president will also like those persons who don’t love his ideologies. But if someone likes Chiranjeevi truly and heart fully, then Pawan loves them to the core.

Actually when an person approached Pawan to join in his team, he has expressed his liking for Pawan’s ideas but also confirmed that he’s not his fan, as he’s hardcore fan of only Chiranjeevi. And for that reason, Pawan immediately took him into the job. During many occasions, Pawan flaunted his love very openly for his brother.

Recently at Sardar Gabbar Singh audio launch event, he expressed how he used to admire his big brother and what the true love inside his heart is for the Megastar. For such a hardcore fan of Chiranjeevi, really other hardcore fans will be good friends, isn’t it? That’s what happening with Pawan Kalyan.

Meanwhile Pawan’s loyal team of employees are different from his political team right now. To become part of his political team, not only love on Chiranjeevi, but huge understanding of people’s issues, knowledge on contemporary politics and compassion to serve the needy are needed.

No Morning Shows for Singam 3

surya

After seeing several release dates, finally Suriya’s most awaited Singam 3 is set to hit the screens today. But unfortunately, the film’s screening has been stopped in many parts of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana due to deadlock over distributors and producer.

Apparently, most of the distributors haven’t paid advances to the producer so producer decided not to screen the film in their regions. This led to great shock to Singam lovers who have booked tickets in advance. In many multiplexes too the early morning show has been cancelled as producer decided not to give the key.

Now the fate of matinee shows is hanging in balance. It’ll be screened only if distributors pay the advance amounts to producer. Malkapuram Siva Kumar, who is releasing the film in Telugu, is apparently adamant on the advance amount and strictly instructed distributors to pay the advance monies first.

Hopefully, the deadlock would be end by afternoon. Let’s wait and see.

Following Naga Chaitanya, actor Rana Daggubati too purchased a new bike targeting the promotions of his new film. Although Rana didn’t buy out a sports automobile, the one he’s taken definitely has some history to it. Yes, the Baahubali actor also says he’s feeling very proud to take a ride on it. Why? Read on…

Rana, who’s campaigning his upcoming bilingual film Ghazi, is busy channelizing it through various ways. Touted as the first underwater film in India, Ghazi showcases the 1971’s war-at-sea between Indian submarine S-21 and Pakistan’s ‘Ghazi’. With a view to promote the film, Rana picks up a new bike – Bajaj ‘V’ – The Invincible. Bollywood’s Mr. Perfectionist Aamir Khan also owns a Bajaj V bike.

So, what’s so historic about it? – The metal used for making this motorcycle has been taken from 1971’s submarine INS Vikrant. Post the expiration of INS lifetime, Bajaj has taken it up to forge two wheelers with its powerful metal. ‘As I wanted to treasure India’s great history I came across over last one year, I decided to buy this bike and I am proud of it,’ said Rana, whose film is scheduled to hit screens on 17th February.

Directed by Sankalp Reddy, Ghazi has Taapsee and Kay Kay Menon playing other significant roles. PVP Cinema rolled out the movie in collaboration with Matinee Entertainment.

NTR's Biopic – 'I Am The Hero'

ntr

After Balakrishna Nandamuri has recently announced to be planning a film on his legendary father NTR Sr, discussions have begun on how people like Chandrababu Naidu, Lakshmi Parvathi etc. will be portrayed in the biopic. Now, Congress leader Nadendla Bhaskara Rao, who tried to usurp the CM chair from NTR in 1984, has sad that his character should be portrayed as a hero in the film.

Nadendla, who was made the finance minister in NTR’s cabinet when the Telugu film legend swept the 1983 elections, had pulled a coup on NTR in 1984. Although Chandrababu Naidu hatched similar conspiracy behind NTR, he showed it to people in a convincing manner. Nadendla however remained a black spot in Nandamuri and TDP circles.

Nadendla has now claimed that his character must be shown as hero in NTR’s film as he was the real founder of TDP. He accused Naidu as the real villain in NTR’s life and warned that if he was shown as a villain he would come in front of media and reveal several hidden secrets that could damage the reputation of NTR Sr. He also warned to reveal some key details about NTR’s life if Balakrishna appraoches him.

After Lakshmi Parvathi issued similar threat, Nadendla’s warning has come as another shocker to Baalyya and Co. Amidst all these controversies, it would not be easy to take this biopic onto floors.

Because, there’s no need to thank you after the film’s release.” Nag hinted that the movie would do the talking after its release.
