Ever since hero Nani’s new film’s title has been confirmed as ‘Jai Balayya’, speculations were rife that the movie deals with Nani’s favouratism on Natasimham Nandamuri Balakrishna, Balakrishna’s movie collections and fans wars as the main theme of the movie. It was also heard that Nani essays the role of a die hard fan of Balakrishna from Ananthapur.

However, Hanu Raghavapudi, the director of the movie, has revealed that ‘Jai Balayya’ would basically be a love story. Although it appears there is no connection between the favouritism and love story, it remains to be seen how can the director link both the genres of the film.

14 Reels Entertainment is producing the movie. As of now major portion of the talky part completed and a couple of songs are left to be shot. The movie is likely to be released soon.

Young Tiger Ntr is in a hurry. As his ongoing project ‘Naannaku Prematho’s shoot is about to be wrapped up soon, he is getting readied for his next project ‘Janatha Garage’. It is being said that Ntr will would join the shoot of ‘Janatha Garage’ within ten after ‘Naannaku Prematho’s shoot is wrapped up. The movie’s release date has been zeroed on August 12.

‘Janatha Garage’ will be directed by Koratala Siva, who is reported to have prepared a bound script for the movie. The movie, which got its formal puja done recently, will go on floors on January 8. Devi Sri Prasad will compose the music of the movie. Shurthi Haasan is likely to be roped in as the heroine of the movie. Mythri Movie Makers is the production.

‘Naannaku Prematho’, on the other side, gets its shoot wrapped up by this month end. The movie has been scheduled for release on January 13. This Sukumar’s directorial venture has Rakul Preet Singh in lady lead’s role.

It’s been long time since Power Star Pawan Kalyan’s Sardaar Gabbar Singh related content is out. The last time, the film’s first look teaser hit online was on Pawan Kalyan’s birthday. And we know how many sensations the short video, where Pawan Kalyan was seen simply walking along with a horse, had created. The Power Star is set to provide another short meal for his fans.

As per a buzz, Sardaar new teaser will be released on January 1st as New Year treat for mega fans. This time, fans will get to see more of Pawan Kalyan. Music director Devi Sri Prasad will certainly elevate the sequences in the new teaser with his mesmerizing background score.

Sardaar shooting is progressing at snail pace. The film supposed to release for the coming sankranthi is postponed to summer, due to delay in production works. Presently, shooting is happening in Gujarat and they are canning important sequences on Pawan Kalyan and other lead cast.

For the first time, Kajal Agarwal is romancing Pawan Kalyan and Raai Laxmi will be seen as second fiddle. Directed by Bobby, Sardaar is expected to be mass action entertainer in the lines of the first installment- Gabbar Singh.

As some analysts speculated, latest industry hit of ‘Baahubali’ hasn’t got that potential to be remembered for ages unlike many other industry hits of Tollywood. Had the movie be shown with full of heroism apart from scintillating VFX, it could have been remembered ever by the audience. However, the makers have just wished to make it a visual extravaganza pumping in huge bucks for visual grandeur.

On the other hand, ”Baahubali’ has not been considered for important film festivals and music awards by Apple iTunes. Considering all these odds, the makers seem to have decided to keep in touch with the audiences in various means to get ‘Baahubali 2’ hyped to the core like ‘Baahubali’.

That’s why, ‘Baahubali- The Beginning’s pics, which were captured during the shoot of the movie in Bulgaria, have been leaked on net. It would be better the makers to take ‘Baahubali 2’ to sets at the earliest such that they could give regular updates of the movie.

Producer C Kalyan is teaming up with director Ram Gopal Varma. RGV’s next will be produced by Kalyan and the film’s pre-production work is presently going on at blitzkrieg speed. Kalyan himself confirmed the news.

While both Kalyan, RGV are known for their strong personalities and carved a niche for themselves, the duo’s collaboration is setting tongues wagging in tinsel town. What’s more shocking is that the movie will be a socio fantasy film on the lines of yesteryear classic Pathala Bhairavi.

RGV had tried several genres in his career spanning over 25 years in the film industry. From horror to crime to romance, he did it almost all.

But RGV shunned away from doing socio-fantasy film so far. Varma, who usually loves to make realistic films, is trying to break that image and probably wanting to try socio-fantasy. The film’s lead cast, crew are yet to be finalised.

The phenomenal blockbuster of India’s biggest motion picture Baahubali is still reaping the benefits for its director Rajamouli and lead actor Prabhas. While both Jakkanna and the Young Rebel Star are now national icons thanks to the success of Baahubali, the two stars have also found their names included in the Forbes India 2015 Celebrity 100 list for the first time.

In the latest Forbes India celebrity rankings, Tollywood’s numero uno director SS Rajamouli secured the 72nd rank with a yearly earnings of a whopping 26 crores. Meanwhile, Prabhas clinched the 77th position with total earnings of 24 crores in the year 2015.

Rajamouli’s money wise rank is 30, while his fame wise rank is 84. Likewise, Prabhas’ money wise rank is 33 and his fame wise rank is 88.

While Rajamouli earned such a huge amount by just directing and providing screenplay for Baahubali, Prabhas, who was rumoured to have been paid a bomb for Baahubali, further increased his back balance by signing his first brand endorsement deal with Mahindra and Mahindra for a whopping paycheck.

Is Mega Power Star Ram Charan going to be ‘Rakshak’? According to the inside buzz, Ram Charan’s new film’s titled is being considered as ‘Rakshak’. Since Ram Charan sports the role of a cop in the movie ‘Rakshak’ is said to be an apt title for the movie. An official announcement has to be made by the producers of the movie.

Tamil blockbuster film ‘Thani Oruvan’ is the original version of this remake film. Kajal Aggarwal is likely to romance Ram Charan in this action entertainer. Surender Reddy will direct the movie. Mega Producer Allu Aravind and NV Prasad are likely to produce the movie as a joint venture.

Aadhi and Jeeva of famous Hip Hop Tamiza music album are likely to render the music of the movie. The movie’s regular shoot will kickstart in the Sankranthi season next year while the movie is expected to hit screens in mid 2016.

There are several ways to know the talk of the movie. Mouth talk is said to be the most powerful talk of all the talks. However, with the emergence of web media, ‘Rating’ system to know the talk of the movie has come into force.

Meanwhile Telugu people, who got settled in the Us (NRIs), have a complete faith on the ratings given by the web media for movies and it has become a common practice for them watching movies based on the ratings given by online web media hoUses.

As far as AP and Telangana are concerned, people of all sections who belong to all castes and religions are seen. In contrast, very few sections of people who belong to very few ‘groups’ are seen noticed in the Us. This factor also is affecting the opening collections of the Telugu movies in the Us. There have been many instances movies recording super hit collections in in the Us in spite of it being bombed in India. Reportedly, it is known that the audience of Us are gradually learning their setbacks in picking out a right movie to watch it. A welcome change from the Us audience!

Digangana Suryavanshi was evicted from Bigg Boss 9 house on Monday. Her fan Aaliya Khan, from Bangladesh, was upset that the decision was taken based on audience’s vote and attempted to end her life. Aaliya is currently being treated in a private hospital. Digangana has been trying to get in touch with Aaliya’s family to know her condition.

Digangana got to know about this suicide attempt through social media. ‘Plz pray for Aaliya Khan! She’s battling for life!’ posted Digangana on her Twitter handle. Digangana whose work includes TV serial Veera, said that she is proud for coming out of the house with her dignity intact, and very proud of her fans who have constantly supported her.

Digangana was the youngest contestant ever on the controversial reality show Bigg Boss. The 17-year-old used to command record votes every week from her wide fan base. However, this Monday, Bigg Boss makers introduced a twist whereby a contestant was eliminated based on the votes of those present inside the house.

As we know, Naga Chaitanya’s new movie ‘Majnu’, which is going to be the remake of Malayalam blockbuster ‘Premam’, is currently on sets. It is also a known news that saucy seductress Shruthi Haasan reprises the role of Sai Pallavi’s from the original version of the movie.

Meanwhile, Shruthi Haasan’s pic from ‘Majnu’ has been leaked on net. Shruthi is likely to enthrall the audiences with her natural looks in simple cotton saris. She plays the role of a lecturer as per the story in the movie.

Anupama Parameswaran and Rakul Preet Singh don other lead actresses roles of the movie. King Nagarjuna is likely to do a cameo role in the movie. Chandu Mondeti is directing this romantic entertainer. Naga Chaitanya’s upcoming film ‘Sahasam Swasaga Sagipo’ is gearing up for release soon.

The Brahmi atom bomb, failed to explode yet again. Other day’s release Bengal Tiger has seen bigwigs like Brahmi, Posani and Prudhvi trying to make audiences laugh with their punches and satires. And that gave a clear picture of what’s going wrong with our comedy legend. In Bengal Tiger, almost all the scenes are written with full josh and proper punches for 30 years Prithvi.

Every single line written for him generates laughs no matter what the emotion is. Same is the case with Posani, as his Sastry role became another key pillar for movie’s first half. When Brahmi entered in second half, except his name ‘Amalapuram Pal’ aka ‘Amala Pal’, there is nothing afresh.

Probably director kept zero focus on Brahmi, thinking that his cutout alone would do. Voila!! If Brahmi is backed by crisp writing like it happened in the case of Prudhvi and Posani, then his role will work with double impact. Else, directors will fail him again and again. This year Brahmi has seen many such failures.

Only Ram Gopal Varma could daringly talk about guns and thighs, as his autobiography is arriving very soon. As this director has showcased those two most of times in his films, why he’s writing a book on it in particular? Ramu confesses, “I love thighs, of many actresses; also many problems are associated with them.

I picked thighs and then guns, because those two are the most powerful elements that scare and drive people”. As part of a TV show, a group of girls and boys have questioned our maverick director a series of Qs about his book.

Replying to another one, where a girl asked why did you wrote about Sridevi’s thighs, not about any hero’s thighs, Ramu said, “Men have to like woman’s thighs and vice versa. Girls have no respect for thighs, that’s why they are not writing books on men’s thighs.

But I’ve immense respect, so I wrote a good book”. Other interesting thing is, when quizzed about which God he will prefer if situation demands him to make a ‘bhakti-rasa-chitram’, he minced no words. “I would make a film on Ganesh, because he looks cute”.

Mega hero Ram Charan is silently going ahead with the remake project of “Thani Oruvan”, which is being produced by his uncle Allu Arvind and directed by Surender Reddy. There used to be much buzz about this project until Charan was spending his holiday in USA but there is nothing much heard about it once he’s back.

So, what’s happening? Grapevine says that Ram Charan is busy finalizing the cast while Surender Reddy is giving final touches the script. As the original version portrays Jayam Ravi in a serious tone and villain Arvind Swamy in a cool vibe, that is going to be altered for Telugu version.

Charan’s character will have couple of comedy scenes as well along with friends characters and romantic track with heroine will be developed to a new level such that there will scope for songs unlike the original.

There are reports are heard about title. Some sources stated that “Rakshak” is the title under consideration for this film, provided with the fact that the movie is all about a sincere police officer saving people from organised crimes.

If big heroes like Venkatesh and Mahesh are busy signing multi-starers once in a while, then what about small budgeted heroes? Only Allari Naresh used to dominate in this club, but now Vishnu Manchu is getting ready to enter that zone. For an upcoming film, which happens to be remake of a Punjabi movie, Vishnu is teaming up with youngster Raj Tarun.

And for this small-budgeted multi starrer film, an ensemble star cast is being picked up. Coming to heroines, we have Hebah Patel repeated for Raj Tarun, while their first offering Kumari 21 F is still running to good crowds in theatres.

Who is getting paired with Vishnu? Even Vishnu will be repeating his current film’s leading lady if reports are to be believed. Though “Sarada” is not yet released, we hear that our Manchu hero is giving heroine Sonarika Bhadoria an immediate chance through his next movie. It’s interesting that both Vishnu and Raj Tarun are repeating heroines.
