Films like Geetanjali, Ganga and the recent Rajugari Gadhi have turned out to be big hits. These films can be made on a shoestring budget and doesn’t need great script to click with the audience.

Now many young directors are coming up with horror comedies as it proves to be the safest bet for low budget movies.

Maruthi’s New Title Reminds Of His Old Days

November 5, 2015

Director Maruthi surprised all by directing Bhala Bhale Magadivoy which even got a U certificate. The film did well at the box office and it was well received by the critics too.In the past, Maruthi debuted with semi-adult films which dealt with subjects concerning the youth of today.

However, in the name of change, he touched upon subjects that would give ample scope for double meaning dialogues and situations. And towards the end, he would have one minute long dialogue about how such behaviour was wrong. Well, that’s how he got commercial success and that was how he was known in the industry too. However, his style went too far and films like Love You Bangaram could not get poster charges. So, he changed track and made Bhale Bhale Magadivoy.

Now, he has announced another film titled Rojulu Marayi and the film is being directed by one of his assistants. The film will deal with issues concerning present generation and it is targetted at the multi-plex audience says the director. So, if one puts two and two together, then it feels as if Maruthi is once again making a film that is similar to his old films. Though Maruthi is not directing the film, looks like his assistant too is following the same genre. We will keep you updated !

Reddy Plans Separate Rayalaseema State Agitation !

November 5, 2015

Political speculations are rife that veteran leader from Rayalaseema region and senior YSRCP leader M V Mysoora Reddy is planning to launch ‘Separate Rayalaseema State’ agitation soon.There are rumours that Mysoora is planning to quit YSRCP and float his own party named “Rayalaseema Rastra Saadhana Samiti” along the lines of Telangana Rastra Samiti (TRS) launched by KCR which successfully achieved separate Telangana State last year after fighting for 13 years in United Andhra Pradesh. If these reports are to be believed, Mysoora is all set to launch his own party on November 21.

There are rumours that some Congress and YSRCP leaders of Rayalaseema region met Mysoora at his residence in Hyderabad on Wednesday and discusses plans on launching separate Rayalaseema movement on the ground of present TDP government headed by Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu was focussing entire development on “Amaravathi” capital city near Vijayawada and neglecting all other districts.

They vowed not to allow this to happen since it would result in loss of education and employment opportunities to people of remaining Andhra and Rayalaseema districts like it happened in Hyderabad when then TDP government headed by Naidu launched all development programmes and projects only in Hyderabad.

It is learnt that the meeting was attended by senior Congress leaders from Rayalaseema region such as Kotla Suryaprakash Reddy and Shailajanath. Plans are being devised demanding creation of separate Rayalaseema State with seven districts including Nalgonda in Telangana, Nellore and Prakasam in Andhra and four districts of Rayalaseema.

Fact Sheet: MIM and the Dalits

November 5, 2015

The new strategy of the MIM in order to project itself as a developmental party and not a communal one is to give tickets to Dalits and make them contest the elections.By this act, the MIM hopes to convince the general public that it is pro-poor and concerned about development rather than communalization. But this in fact only appears to be a well-thought out strategy.

In India, the primary targets for conversion have always been the Dalits as they have been at the bottom rung of the social ladder. The majority of converts to other religions have been Dalits for obvious reasons. Today, cohesion with the Dalits would help the MIM to channelize their frustrations (that of the Dalits) against the ruling establishment and other political parties. For all their so-called talk of development and standing up for the rights of the minorities, is it not a fact that the Owaisi brothers are filthy-rich while their Muslim brethren in old city sink further into poverty and misery?

The Dalits may feel that in the form of MIM, they have a genuine interlocutor for them but at the end of the day, they are just a bulwark for the MIM against other parties and organizations, principally the RSS. And the biggest challenge for the RSS is that despite their best efforts to consolidate all the Hindus under one single umbrella, the caste system continues to remain the biggest stumbling block.

In fact, it was this point which was raised by Dr. Ambedkar too with respect to reconversion to Hinduism.
“If you reconvert a person to Hinduism, what caste will he be given? Hindus are born in a caste and die in a caste. So, what will be the fate of these converts? Given that casteism is the basis of Hinduism, there is no way for these converts to gain an identity for themselves in the Hindu social ladder.” Whatever be the solution to the query posed by Dr. Ambedkar, the situation is certainly working out to the advantage of the MIM.

She took the mike to answer on Salman’s behalf, giving a glimpse of her trademark brazen honesty. “I will answer that question. I think it will be better if I answer that question…

The daughter of actor Anil Kapoor then went on to bring the focus back on the Sooraj Barjatya’s directorial, which brings a story of love and family values on the big screen. “I think we should rest what we have to say at this point and talk about PRDP which is a film about love, tolerance, brothers and sisters,” said the “Khoobsurat” actress. Meanwhile, Sonam is excited for “Prem Ratan Dhan Payo”, which hinges on importance of family. It will release on November 12.
