NTR Scared Of Babai Nandamuri Bala Krishna!
The war between Bala Krishna and NTR has reached to the peak and Bala Krishna is not ready for any compromise. Though there were recent reports in the media that NTR and Bala Krishna had an understanding and resolved their differences, the scene is actually quite different. One can see how tensed NTR is these days with the tweet fiasco he made on Monday night – by expressing his predicament about Nannaku Prematho’s release and later claiming his twitter handle was compromised.
Reality is the differences between Babai and Abbayi have further been intensified. In fact, Nandamuri Bala Krishna is no mood to excuse NTR, according to our sources. He reportedly told all the distributors of his movie Dictator not to buy Nannaku Prematho. Despite the fact they belong to the same Nandamuri clan, Bala Krishna and NTR never had a good relationship except for a brief period – just before 2009 elections.
Five years later their shaky relationship hit the bottom with the reports coming that NTR was going to support YSRC Party in 2014. Although NTR didn’t canvass for Jagan’s party and remained faithful to Telugu Desam Party in public sphere, Bala Krishna still nurses the grouse against abbayi and he has vowed to teach NTR a lesson. Sometime ago, Kalyan Ram who is very close to Bala Krishna tried his best to bring both NTR and Balayya together and resolve their differences but it reportedly didn’t work out.
NTR and Kalyan Ram, the brothers, in the recent times have become much closer to each other. Let’s wait and watch how this drama unfolds further or ends. Meanwhile, scared of Bala Krishna and his fans, the producers of Nannaku Prematho have now reportedly pushed their movie to January end.
Photo Feature: Perfect Body
We have won the coveted Miss Universe crown twice before in the past, with Sushmita Sen in 1994 and Lara Dutta in 2000.
It’s been fifteen years since any Indian beauty has been chosen to uphold the title. Now, all hopes of bringing the crown home again are set on Urvashi Rautela.
Urvashi, who is an actress, sure seems like a perfect mix of beauty with brains. At the recent Gown round at the Miss Universe pageant, she stunned everyone with her elegant appearance.
NTR Drops A Bomb On Fans!
Makers have been repeatedly saying that Nannaku Prematho will release for Sankranthi in spite of media buzz about the postponement. Every time media starts speculating about the film’s release being pushed from Sankranthi the makers came up with new posters or press notes claiming that the movie is scheduled for Pongal.
Posters or press notes cannot guarantee a film’s release though. Therefore everyone was eagerly waiting for the audio to be launched so that they can rest assured of the movie’s release. Sankranthi is just three weeks away from now and there is no news about Nannaku Prematho audio launch as yet. NTR bowed downed to the pressure from fans and finally broke silence over the release and audio launch.
NTR took to Twitter and said he has no clue about what is happening with the film. This is heartbreaking for Tarak fans that are so pumped up about the movie. “Fans have been asking the dates of Nannaku Prematho audio and movie release.i wish I knew when it is!i have no clue what is happening,” Tarak posted on Twitter.
NTR deleted this tweet after few minutes and posted it again after a while and deleted it again. Leaving no clues about what is happening with his Twitter account!
India Takes Up Students’ Deportation Issue With US
New Delhi: India has strongly taken up the matter of 14 Indian students being deported from the US where they had gone to join two universities. “We have seen reports regarding deportation of Indian students from San Francisco,” external affairs ministry spokesman Vikas Swarup said in a statement on Tuesday. “As per information available with us, the deportations have taken place due to denial of entry to these students by US immigration authorities,” he said.
“Air India has acted as per the advice of US authorities. We have strongly taken up the matter with the US government both in the US and in Delhi. We are closely following up the matter with the aim of resolving it at the earliest.” The 14 students reportedly went to take admission in Silicon Valley University in San Jose, California, and North Western Polytechnic College in Fremont, California. Air India, in an earlier statement, said it received a communication on December 19 from the US Customs and Border Protection agency that the two universities were under scrutiny and the students who arrived in San Francisco were not allowed to enter the US and were deported back to India.
“So far, 14 students who travelled on Air India flights to San Francisco have been deported,” the Air India statement said. “Students travel on a one-way ticket to the US and in the event of deportation, the student incurs huge expenditure to buy a ticket back to India on first available service. Further, seats are often not available on any airlines to travel back.”
On Sunday, Air India stopped 19 students headed for these two institutions from boarding its flight to San Francisco. “In considering the situation, as a precautionary measure and to avoid inconvenience, students booked for travel to take admission to these universities are not being accepted on Air India flights,” the Air India statement said.
Balakrishna Impressed With Prudhvi!
The year 2015 clearly belongs to comedian Prudhvi as he has gained good stardom this year with several hits to his credit. In Bengal Tiger, his role was the main asset and many cite he was the reason for its decent success. Such praise used to be reserved only for Brahmanandam but the senior comedian has failed to generate any laughs this year so far in any movies. So the alternative is Prudhvi.
Strangely, even Nandamuri Balakrishna too is reportedly impressed with Prudhvi’s comedy. In some of his past movies including Loukyam, Prudhvi did spoofs on Balakrishna’s movies.
Still, Balayya reportedly enjoyed Prudhvi’s performance and he superficially wanted him to play the lengthy role in Dictator. So Prudhvi is emerging as the number one comedian in Tollywood.
Naresh Skips Ghost For Mama
Sudden Star Allari Naresh is hoping big on this Friday’s release after he’s let down by a series of flops in the recent times. “Mama Manchu Alludu Kanchu” is hitting cinemas this Friday and that also happens to be Golden Jubilee film of this talented comedy hero. However, this is not supposed to be his 50th treat.
In a an exclusive chat today, Naresh shared that he has some other plans in mind before taking up this multi-starrer project as his 50th one. “Director Nageswara Reddy and me have decided to work on a ghost story. Much to our shock, many heroes are working on same line. So we’ve called off that film. Otherwise that would have become my solo 50th film”, said Naresh, without taking any names.
Of course, it’s not rocket science to decode. Inspired by 2008 Hollywood movie “Ghost Town”, movies like Surya’s Rakshasudu (Massu in Tamil) and Nagarjuna’s upcoming “Soggade Chinni Nayana” have crafted out similar stories. That’s the reason Naresh backed off.
Anyway, rather becoming ghost, Naresh turned a decent and fun loving Alludu along with ‘mama’ Mohan Babu to entertain audiences.
‘I’m Endorsing Being Your Fittest Self’
Mumbai: Parineeti Chopra has been in the news for having lost oodles of weight, but the actress says she is not in any way endorsing the idea of being thin. Instead, she feels that her trim figure is about endorsing fitness.
Ever since she stepped into the film industry, Parineeti was targeted for having a fuller figure. Did she decide to lose weight because of the brickbats?
“That (criticism) is absolutely bizarre. Being thin is a different thing, I wanted to have better stamina and control over my body,” the actress said here on the red carpet of the Stardust Awards. “I am not endorsing being thin, I am endorsing being your fittest self,” she added.
She is now happy that “results are showing”. “It’s good because ever since I’ve become an actress people used to talk about my weight in a different way. I wanted to work on my body and I got six to eight months to work on it,” the 27-year-old said. “I am glad the results are showing,” she added.
Bruce Lee Blame Game Should Stop
None needs to take the blame for whatever happened with disastrous verdict given by audience for ‘Bruce Lee.’ While some say Kona Venkat gave a miserable script, others say the same script is further deplorably handled by Srinu Vytla. Anyways, they two have already been in a blame game without pulling Mega camp into centre.
Now here comes a different version of campaign initiated in Film Nagar circles saying, Ramcharan and Chiranjeevi as the key players who ruined ‘Bruce Lee’ output by their ugly involvement into every portion of film during the production and post production. However, Mega sources revolted on this thesis quoting a fact that Chiranjeevi hasn’t even watched the first rushes of film keeping trust on Vytla and Kona.
It’s high time for all of the ‘Bruce Lee’ victims to stop this political play. All three of them, Charan and Vytla, Kona needs an urgent hit. Instead of making the issue much more critical, get busy with your respective projects and enjoy a break through. There’s nothing to help you in digging the tragic past.
Nagarjuna on Festive Advantage!
As explained earlier on Akkineni Nagarjuna had a wonderful strategy on mind while releasing the trailer of his upcoming film ‘Soggade Chinni Nayana’ eyeing to generate a positive buzz and develop the pre release market, the strategy has simply worked more than what Nag would have expected.
Now that trailer got superb response and everyone started to appreciate both the looks of Akkineni Nagarjuna, there is a subsequent hike in probability of this flick to hit the screens for Pongal. In fact, buyers are also heard on forcing Nagarjuna to pit this family entertainer against ‘Nannaku Prematho’ and ‘Dictator.’
Given the vast advantage Pongal season caters for movies of all genres, Nag would be on advantage with this wholesome family entertainer when the above mentioned two Nandamuri movies are meant for mass audience. Of course, there is no class and no mass when it comes holiday and festive season.
But, still family audience might prefer to enjoy Nagarjuna, Ramya Krishna, Lavanya Tripathi, Hamsa Nandini, Anasuya in a village backdrop than other costly backdrops hitting in the same time.
