Even Ravi Teja’s Bengal Tiger was pulled out of competition. Except for Rajugari Gadhi no other movie in the market is doing well at the moment. Only Tripura is the straight film that is releasing in this week. So ground is totally clear for Akhil to cash in on the hype and expectations.

However he is going to face a hurdle in the form of Salman Khan’s Prem Ratan Dhan Payo/Prema Leela (Telugu Dubbed) that is releasing on November 12th, just a day after Akhil hits the marquee. Expectations on Salman movie are pretty high because of his recent form plus Rajshri Productions and Sooraj Barjatya factors.

Salman and Barjatya have done wonders at the Telugu box office with their Prema Pavuralu (Maine Pyar Kiya) and Premalayam (Hum Aap Ke Hain Kaun) that were runaway blockbusters. Of course the third film in their combo, Hum Sath Sath Hain failed to repeat the magic. However Prema Leela cannot be written off as a mere Hindi dubbed flick.

It has the potential to take on Telugu biggies if it clicks like Prema Pavuralu and Premalayam did.

Bollywood box-office emperor Salman Khan is awaiting the release of his forthcoming film Prem Ratan Dhan Payo this Diwali, which will also release in Telugu as Premleela on 12th November. The macho star has been promoting the film aggressively and in a latest interview, he spoke at length about his personal life, marriage and girlfriends.

While talking about the film’s director Sooraj Barjatya, Salman said that Sooraj loves and dotes on his wife and that he is 100% loyal to his wife. “I am not the loyal types. The capability of meeting this one girl and then spending the rest of your life happily ever after with her is a concept that I have only read of and heard of,” Salman said explaining the reason behind him not getting married until now.

The actor also said that he is not romantic at all because he is a practical person. The Dabangg star further stated that he hates candlelight dinners as such private moments led all his girlfriends to talk about marriage which then led to fights and arguments at the end of the dinners.

Salman, who is rumored to be dating his Romanian girlfriend Lulia Vantur, told recently that he will get married within a year.

While critics were not much impressed with Raju Gari Gadhi, the movie struck a chord with the mass audiences in B and C Centres.The movie now became most profitable venture for both the producers and distributors. More than 12 Cr is expected to rake in by the end of its total run.

Now anchor turned director Ohmkar Annayya is planning a sequel to his super hit movie to cash in on the craze that the movie has got.

Like Lawrence did the Kanchana series, Ohmkar is planning similar movies in the horror comedy genre.

Ohmkar’s directorial capabilities are yet to be improved but he has proven that he can create comedy that can connect with mass audiences.

Hence the producers who backed him for this movie have asked him to go ahead with the sequels.

Alia Bhatt is the ‘Alice In Wonderland’ heroine of Bollywood, thanks to her historic faux pas on Karan Johar’s show.After goofing up big time and becoming the butt of jokes, she did a series of totally hilarious spoofs to make up for her zero knowledge of current affairs.

Anushka Shetty’s Size Zero, which was supposed to hit the theatres on Nov 27, might be postponed. With Ravi Teja’s Bengal Tiger too slated for release on same day, makers of Size Zero are mulling over to defer the film. Since November is not a season for films, producer PVP don’t want to clash with any big-ticket film as it’d affect profits of both films.

Given that Bengal Tiger has ensemble star cast like Ravi Teja, Tamanna, Rashi Khanna and movie is being directed by Sampath Nandi, producers of Anushka don’t want to slug it out with it. Apart from Bengal Tiger, another small-ticket film Kumari 21 F is likely to release on same day.

All these said to be pushing PVP to postpone Size Zero. However, trade wants Anushka to come into race as the film’s audio launch generated good buzz and postponing the film now would be a wasted opportunity. So far, nothing has been decided yet. Let’s wait and see whether Fatty Anushka fight with Bengal Tiger or not.
