Akhil Akkineni’s debut movie, Akhil is being dubbed in to Tamil as Surya Kavacham. Senior Producer C.Kalyan had bagged the Tamil rights of the film and is releasing it there. The theatrical trailer of Surya Kavacham was released yesterday there.

The Tamil theatrical trailer is different than that of the Telugu one and is of two minutes long. However the response for Tamil trailer is much better than the Telugu trailer. The Tamil trailer cut has all ingredients in it to attract the audience.

Its better if the Telugu makers release the same trailer in Telugu ahead of the movie release. Akhil is releasing on November 11th as Diwali Special. But Surya Kavacham may be postponed to a later date as Ajith’s Vedhalam and Kamal Hassan’s Thoongavanam is releasing at the same time.

The Spain schedule of Young Tiger NTR’s Nannaku Prematho is not happening any soon. The movie is already delayed by couple of months and a source in the movie unit tells us that Visa Problems for the unit is pushing the schedule.

The makers have rescheduled their plans now and are shooting more in Hyderabad. The portions that are planned for Spain are also being canned in Hyderabad now. The Spain schedule is now likely to happen after Diwali.

Nannaku Prematho is being planned for Sankranthi the next year. Rakul Preet Singh is romancing NTR for the first time in this film directed by Sukumar. Rajendra Prasad and Jagapathi Babu are playing important role in the movie directed by Sukumar.

Director Maruthi is a very delighted man after that super success of his recent directorial, Bhale Bhale Magadivoy. The young director is now working on the script of his next film with Victory Venkatesh. Besides that he is also coming back to production.

Earlier Maruthi produced few low budget film but most of them are high on sleaze and double meaning dialogues. He gave them a break after so much of criticism from critics. Now he is back to production once again.

He will be producing one more low budget crime comedy in debutant Muralikrishna’s direction. The movie is titled ‘Rojulu Marayi’ and has Drishyam fame Kruthika Jayakumar playing the female lead. She will be seen in the role of a girl who gets into complex situations.

There is a sudden shadow fell on Brahmanandam’s stardom as a key comedian who can change the result of a film single handedly. It’s the success which defines the very existence and non-existence of an artist or technician in film industry. Brahmi enjoyed a very long innings in industry as a ruling comedian. However, the recent disasters from him like ‘Bruce Lee, Sher’ have left him in deep chaos.

Apparently, both critics and common audience are expressing their discomfort watching Brahmi in stereotyped roles which are less entertaining more boring. At the same time, entry of young comedians is proving a bonus for producers and directors who are opining Rs.5 Lakhs per day call sheet on Brahmi can be a mere waste. ‘When we are getting two to three comedians at a time to fill the screen with artists, why to prefer Brahmanandam,’ questions a producer.

Anyways, Brahmanandam is losing the sheen. The utmost duty he can perform to bring back those good times for his career is to cut-down the remuneration. Of course, a solid hit for Brahmi can also change the way things are ruining his. Let us see, which will happen first?

Although, our young heroes may not have any personal egos or internal fights on Tollywood number game, thanks to a section of Fans who always keep this subject on fore-front whenever a new movie arrives from their respective heroes camp. If it is a Mahesh Babu film, then focusing Mahesh as Tollywood No 1 and if the case is with Pawan, the force becomes much stronger. Prabhas, Ramcharan, Junior NTR are also in the same queue.

However, here comes one more new addition to list in the form of Akkineni Akhil. Even before the first movie from Akhil has hit the theaters, Akkineni Fans groups on social media are trying to propagate their handsome looking young hero as No 1. For a debutant hero, this kind of a whisper is first time to signify the scale of pressure under which Akhil is entering into main stream heroism filled Tollywood.

Akkineni brand is obviously the crucial factor keeping Akhil in the main focus. Late ANR and Nagarjuna have been the most popular celebrities. Taking their legacy forward is a blessing and at the same time pressure building feature for Akhil in this early career stage. Better, the Akkineni scion stay away from such debates concentrating purely on building a strong footing for future career to flourish.

Director Maruthi is also familiar as producer Maruthi. More than directing his own films, he has the passion to produce small budgeted movies offering a break for all those artists and technicians waiting for a right opportunity. Maruthi produced a row of small films in association with his friends’ team. While success rate has been a matter of concern, Maruthi is no way going to stay away from this itch.

As per unofficial reports in film circles, Maruthi is soon going to produce a new movie titled as ‘Rojulu Marayi’ in debutant Murali Krishna direction with Kruthika Jaya Kumar heroine and central lead. Kruthika earlier was seen as Venkatesh daughter in ‘Drishyam’ and as heroine in ‘Vinavayya Ramayya.’

Away from his regular adult contented stories, Maruthi garnered a fresh new family image with ‘Bhale Bhale Magadivoy.’ Now, he is remaining so selective both on production and direction fronts. While a movie with Venkatesh is in direction list, ‘Rojulu Marayi’ is in his production chart. Well, the title appears to be apt even in Maruthi’s transformation.

Powerstar Pawan Kalyan never appeared to be a gadget freak or selfie lover. He always use his Twitter account too only for sharing something political related and is yet to post anything about even his films there. However a selfie taken by the Powerstar is out on internet.

Pawan Kalyan, Ali, Brahmaji and Gabbar Singh Srinu are in the selfie and the picture was released on to the social media by Brahmaji calling it as Gabbar Singh gang. The team is currently shooting a short schedule in Hyderabad and will fly to Gujarat for a major schedule towards the end of this month.

The team had finalized some very fine locales for the shooting there.The makers say the shooting will now go non-stop till completion as they plan Summer 2016 release for the film.

There are no words to describe the versatility Kamal Hasan shows with every film. In a long spanning career, Kamal always entertained innovative subjects with novel screenplay wherein his central characters have one or the other specialty to satisfy the zeal within him-self as an artist. ‘Vishwaroopam, Uththam Villain’ and upcoming ‘Cheekati Rajyam’ are pure experiments possible only from Kamal.

In the same stream, Kamal Hasan announced one of his new projects to be based on pure mythology with Ravana from Ramayana as central character. At a time when many directors and producers are opting to make films on Ramayana and Maha Bharatha, here comes Universal Star with the same idea. None other than Kamal himself will play the role of Ravana and title for this flick is tentatively finalized as ‘Lankeshwar.’

Undoubtedly, ‘Lankeshwar’ would be a multi lingual project to be undertaken on big budget. More details on cast, crew and other production details will be officially announced in next year as and when Kamal is ready with the script.

In this latest photo shoot, sultry Kannada beauty Raai Lakshmi raises the steam as she poses in a bikini top which exposes her voluptuous figure. The erotic damsel looks like a nymph in this picture. Her stoic expression just makes the picture perfect moment a total eye feast for beauty lovers.

Raai Lakshmi is currently busy promoting her soon to be released horror film Begumpet. The actress is also shooting for her Bollywood feature in a lead role, Julie 2, while she had already shot for a sizzling item song in Powerstar Pawan Kalyan’s Sardaar Gabbar Singh.

‘Prema than dhanamaaye’ is the translation or Telugu lyric for the line ‘Prem Ratan Dhan Payo’ in the upcoming Salman Khan starrer of the same name, director Sooraj R Barjatya’s “Prem Ratan Dhan Payo”. As the film gets released on November 12 in Telugu version also as “Prema Leela”, Salman’s Telugu fans are eagerly waiting for it.

And by the time releasing is inching closer, everyone is now worried about those songs. Because the previous Salman Khan and Sooraj Barjatya’s films Maine Pyaar Kiye and Hum Aapke Hai Kaun are huge blockbusters in Telugu as Prema Paavuralu and Premalayam, This time, the Telugu lyrics of the Hindi songs are so confusing, unclear and difficult to understand.

They are neither purely poetic and old Telugu kind, nor the modern day Telugu language everyone speaks. That’s why they are tough to understand for modern day music lovers, especially fans of Salman Khan here in two Telugu states. They say, it’s like a torture for these songs.

Recently some couple of big Hindi movies like ‘Happy New Year’ too dubbed their films into Telugu and released the local version on same day. Songs are big let down because of their poor lyrics, while in Hindi they are super duper hit. Seems like Salman committed similar mistake.

This cut-off mark is neither for budgets, nor for production time. Currently these three directors are making their trademark felt on Tollywood by their big ticket films and also their hefty remuneration.

Much before “Baahubali” released, it’s publicized that Rajamouli is demanding a pay check of 15 crores for his film. With Baahubali, he might have got more than that figure, some say twice that of 15 crore mark. Coming to VV Vinayak, reports have that he pocketed nearly 15 crores for “Alludu Seenu” and is repeating the same for “Akhil”.

As his films generally don’t fail at box office, for their commercial masala content, producers are not worried to pay him such a huge figure. Same is the case with Koratala Siva, who is just two films old. As his Mirchi and Srimanthudu are box office hits, he is said to clocking that mighty figure for Nannaku Prematho. Industry observers say, for super-star directors, 15 crore is the cut-off mark for remuneration.

With big heroes and directors charging nearly 15 crores, just the remuneration budgets itself are touching 35 crores per film. Guess why each film is requiring nearly 50-60 crores budget to get carved.

Akhil Akkineni’s debut movie, Akhil is all set for a wide release in Telugu States thanks to the absence of no notable release round the corner. However all is not well for the movie in Overseas. Akhil is already releasing there with Tuesday Premieres which will hit the movie openings there very badly.

On the other side, there is a theaters scarcity for the movie in Overseas. Three major films from India – Thoongavanam, Prem Ratan Dhan Payo and Vedalam releasing in the same week and occupying good number of theaters.

All those three films are confirmed for Diwali much in advance and so their distributors have booked theaters well in advance. Akhil which was confirmed in the last minute, is now struggling to have a good release there. We will have to see how it pans out for the debutante finally.

Against the diverse gossips floated earlier on about King Nagarjuna expressed his displeasure against few of the lower order VFX quality works prepared for Akkineni Akhil debut film ‘Akhil,’ here comes fresh reports that Nithin has tightened all the loose ends and showed outright first rate quality product to Nagarjuna yesterday.

This means, ‘Akhil’ is done with all the post production works including the VFX. By all probability, Censor copy would be screened before regional committee in next two to three days, if everything goes as per the plan. VV Vinayak is heard to have directed the film on lavish budget with superb technical values. However, Akhil is going to be the special attraction with fresh energy oozing.

Akkineni Nagarjuna’s extreme happiness watching final ‘Akhil’ copy would have boosted the morals of Akhil, Nithin and entire team for sure. Now, there are only few more days left for aggressive promotions to kick-off. Hope, they are on the target to multiply the existing hype. Obviously, this is the most excitement generating project for Diwali and a celebration is worth to begin.
