With only 2 days left for the release of Niharika’s silver screen debut Oka Manasu, mega fans are eagerly waiting for the film and the expectations meter is set high than the normal. Apparently, to match the hype and keep up the pace, makers said to have cut few portions of the film that appeared to be lag. It’s buzzed that the film is trimmed by 15 to 16 minutes and the unit is content after the final edit.

Insiders say that Oka Manasu would be on the lines of Malli Malli Idi Rani Roju but totally different from the Sharwanand-starrer. Niharika and Shourya will be portraying strong characters in this intense love story.Not long ago, even director Trivikram’s A..Aa went under scissors before the film’s release and the film’s fate at BO is common knowledge by now.

After films like Sardaar, Brahmotsavam bombed, makers seem to be focusing on the run-time as a last-minute effort to save their films. Let’s see whether Niharika’s on-screen debut too meet same fate as A..Aa or not.

Released in 2003, Power Star Pawan Kalyan’s directorial debut Johnny, even though flopped miserably, it was lauded for its martial arts episodes composed by Pawan himself. Especially, Pawan displayed his Aikido skills and enthralled his fans.Now, Pawan’s nephew Ram Charan is all set to showcase his Aikido skills in his ongoing film, Dhruva. Apparently, Charan hired an Aikido experience and trained hard to attain perfection in this Japanese martial art form.

Aikido is a defensive martial art form that largely consists of entering and turning movements that redirect the momentum of an opponent’s attack and defend oneself and the makers thought Aikido would perfectly suit Charan’s role of an IPS officer in Dhruva.

Currently, Charan is shooting for Dhruva in Kashmir as the schedule kick-started in the valley today. Once he returns, Charan is expected to train rigorously to master his moves in Aikido. Even for Bruce Lee, Charan underwent strenuous fitness regime. Let’s hope that all his hardwork will pay off for the Mega Power Star with Dhruva.
