Trivikram Srinivas is a proven director and an established brand here in Telugu market. From the stages of a successful writer with peculiar flavor, he grew into a star director delivering continuous hits.

As soon as Trivikram wraps up ‘A… Aa’ and Suriya is done with ’24, Singham 3,’ an official statement from them is expected.

Generally, heroines around the country die to romance with Mahesh Babu at least for one movie. Such is his immense charisma among girls. However, one might not be aware of even Mahesh having some sort of interest towards acting with a particular heroine and it happens to be Bollywood star heroine, Deepika Padukone. Speaking at a recent conversation, Mahesh Babu put his thoughts out on Deepika. ‘My all time favorite actress was Sridevi till some time ago. But now, she is Deepika Padukone.

What a brilliant actress she is? I watched her recent performance in ‘Piku’ and left stunned. She is of course beautiful. When she acts like that, combination of beauty and performance can be lethal,’ Mahesh said. Sometime in the past, Deepika also expressed similar views about Mahesh Babu. ‘He is my best friend in South,’ Dips shared. Well, enough of your vice-versa appreciations. A combination of both of you can be so delightful. Let us see, is this possible for AR Murugadoss film to start in middle of next year.

Vicky Donor starring Ayushmann Khurrana and Yami Gautam was a film about Sperm donation and it was a blockbuster back then. Madhura Sreedhar planned to remake this film in Telugu under the name of Dana Karna but that never happened.

Finally the 2012 film’s remake is going on floors now in Telugu. The film will begin later this month and will have Sumanth playing the lead role. A new comer Mallik Ram will be wielding megaphone for this project.

It is said that Nagarjuna is the opinion that this project will work wonders for Sumanth and so his Annapurna Studios brought the remake rights of the movie. Sumanth hopes that this remake will bring a big break to his career.

The growth of Sunil from the stages of a supporting artist cum comedian to a bankable hero is just because of the continuous hard work and don’t-give-up attitude. Sunil enjoyed a commercial hero image with super hits of ‘Maryada Ramanna’ and ‘Poola Rangadu’ is so special with Sunil having developed six packed abs for a climax fighting sequence.Later on, ‘Mr Pellikoduku’ also had a similar climax episode and Sunil ripped off shirt one more time but not for complete acceptance from audience.

This could be the third time Sunil’s well chiseled body will be explored on screen for the untitled film currently under production mode in direction of Vamsi Krishna Akella of ‘Raksha’ fame.Direct shot this high-voltage fight sequence recently in Vizag involving 100+ high weight body builders rounding Sunil composed under action choreography of Ram-Laxman. As we all know, Priyanka Chopra’s cousin Mannara Chopra is female lead in the film, produced by Sudharshan Reddy of ‘Prema Katha Chitram’ fame.

Superstar Mahesh Babu is undoubtedly the most desirable man and is as a dream boy of many girls including some top actresses. But Mahesh revealed who is his most desirable actress today in an interview to a National Newspaper.

“My all time favourite was Sridevi but now it’s Deepika Padukone. She is brilliant. I was stunned by her as an actress in Piku. She is obviously beautiful, but when you can also act like that, it’s a lethal combination,” Mahesh Babu said.

We have seen several rumours in the past of Deepika Padukone may be chosen to pair up with Mahesh but that did not materialize. It will be treat for fans if that happens for Mahesh’s next with AR Murugadoss as they are already looking to bring in a Bollywood beauty.

An English Newspaper today published a report that Mega scion Sai Dharam Tej and Regina Cassandra are looking at each other. Both of them acted together in Pilla Nuvvu Leni Jeevitham and Subrahmanyam for Sale.

It is said that the beautiful actress is a frequent visitor to Sai Dharam Tej’s other film locations now. It is also told that Sai Dharam Tej is recommending her to the producers of his other films too.

But his recommendations are not accepted as their pair will get boring on screen since they already appeared together twice. We will have to see if some clarity will emerge on this from Mega camp about their intimate relation!

The commercial blockbuster of ‘Rachcha’ bought the underlying talent of Sampat Nandi in dealing a mass hero. He might have had big dreams to direct big films and star heroes but Sampat took the platform from scratch by dealing a concept based film ‘Yemandi Ee Vela’ with relatively shorter casting of Varun Sandesh and Nisha Agarwal as his first directorial assignment.

The passage to reach Chiranjeevi and Ramcharan for ‘Rachcha’ was so unfortunate and he did not leave the opportunity to go-off. The calculated screenplay and Mega Power Star charisma churned the Box Office with Rs.45+ Crores to shoot up Sampat’s position, all of a sudden into top director’s list. So, ‘Yemandi Ee Vela’ and ‘Rachcha’ have left Sampat on the verge of doing a hat-trick.The big gap occurred between ‘Rachcha’ and ‘Bengal Tiger’ might not be countenanced but this happened for the well being of Sampat as he is well-nigh to become a rare hat trick director. Distributors market in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh are gleeful with ‘Bengal Tiger’ first copy thanking Sampat for relieving them from recent disasters. So, here are advance wishes to Sampat on securing the hat trick.

Hero Raviteja and director Sampat Nandi is a massive and crazy combination struck well with the Telugu cinema market. Despite Ravi having a flop ‘Kick 2’ as his last film, the name and fame of Sampat Nandi as a director with perfect judgment in catching the pulse of mass audience has done the trick for ‘Bengal Tiger’ hitting the screens on December 10. As per the early trade reports from close circles, ‘Bengal Tiger’ producer KK Radha Mohan is happily enjoying the table profits sitting relaxed during these tense pre release moments completing business of all the areas. To be more specific, Radha Mohan is promoted as a high budget film producer with ‘Bengal Tiger’ after successfully proving his caliber in medium and small budgeted movies. So, this is early break for him in understanding the complexity around high budgeted films.

The market buzz says, ‘Bengal Tiger’ amassed Rs.34 Crores of pre release business from all the distribution rights (inclusive of satellite) which has put Radha Mohan in nearly 5 Crores early profits. Depending on the scale of performance at Box Office from December 10, there are positive speculations for him to further prosper. All in all, ‘Bengal Tiger’ is creating tremors in Telugu cinema trade market which is of course a tremendous indication on growing craze for Raviteja as Mass hero and Sampat Nandi as ultimate mass director.

Tollywood witnessed movies of various genres released this such as folklores, historical, social, action entertainers, romantic entertainers and horror thrillers. Altogether, 15 to 20 movies could be termed as hits/ safe ventures for the buyers. Interestingly, audiences preferred watching horror and horror comedies rather movies of other genres this year. Very good number of horror films hit the screens and three among them scored super hits.

Anchor Ohmkar’s ‘Raju Gari Gadhi’ was an unexpected big hit of Tollywood in Horror Comedy genre. Raghava Lawrence’ ‘Ganga’ had been the biggest dubbing hit of this year. And lastly, ‘Mayuri’, which was made with a shoestring budget, turned out to be a shocking hit at the box office. The successes of these movies have given inspiration to other filmmakers to produce more number of horror entertainers.
