Post the superb success of ‘Pandaga Chesko,’ there is nothing like positive news to praise the golden leg Rakul Preet Singh. The disaster results in ‘Kick 2’ and ‘Bruce Lee’ have left Rakul in a shock because she immediately needs a strong break to re-approve her glamour and acting talent.

Currently, Rakul Preet has two projects queued up with Allu Arjun and Junior NTR. Here comes sensational news that she is also getting ready to sign a Varun Tej movie in Gopichand Malineni direction. The film in sports backdrop will have Varun Tej in a newly designed characterization and so is heroine Rakul.

As Gopichand earlier worked with Rakul, he thought it would be easy to rope in her. He might soon narrate the story line in brief before taking the final nod. Apart from star heroes, Rakul should also work with heroes in initial stardom stages and Varun can be a best choice. If at all, ‘Loafer’ turns out a surprising hit at Box Office, then it is a reverse situation and Varun will be lucky for Rakul.

Late Kondavalasa Lakshmana Rao’s first movie is widely said by media people as ‘Avunu Valliddaru Ishta Paddaru’ in Vamsy direction. The dialect and dialogue of ‘Aithe Ok’ made him so popular but truth is, this is not the first film for Kondavalasa. One of his close friends, highly talented artist Sivaji Raja shared some surprising news regarding Kondavalasa’s film introduction with ‘Kallu’ movie.

‘Kallu’ is a neo realistic film made on lives of blind people, directed by MV Raghu. ‘Unlike many channels promoting ‘Avunu Valliddaru Ishta Paddaru’ as first film assignment for Kondavalasa, this is not so. We both made our acting debut in ‘Kallu.’ I can still remember those days when Kondavalasa appreciated my looks in the film. Whenever we both met at different occasions, we used to rejoice our ‘Kallu’ moments,’ Sivaji Raja said.

Directors like Vamsy, EVV Sathya Narayana and SV Krishna Reddy gave continuous support for Kondavalasa. In a span of less than 12 years, he completed 300 films which is a great achievement. Definitely, Tollywood misses you sir.

Soon after the break-up of engagement upsetting Trisha’s personal life, here are row of offers for her in professional field providing lot of respite. If reports from Chennai are to be believed, Trisha bagged a very big project when Bollywood bombshell Vidya Balan rejected the proposal.

Trisha Krishnan will pair up with Dhanush for an untitled flick under Durai Senthil Kumar direction. Important issue is; Trisha’s character will have negative shades something in flavor of Ramya Krishna as Neelambari in ‘Narasimha.’ Although, Durai wanted Vidya Balan into the team but she could not adjust the call sheets due to pregnancy reasons. Dhanush plays dual roles of two brothers in this political thriller. While Shamilee is heroine for younger Dhanush, it is heroine Trisha for elder Dhanush character.

In fact, Dhanush and Trisha were planned to work for ‘Aadukalam’ long ago. Later, equations changed and she could become a part of that one. We need to wait and see, how great the petite Trisha will cash on this antagonist role showcasing the versatility. This is a rare opportunity and hope she accepts the challenge.

Nikhil’s Shankarabharanam was postponed for the second time in a week. The movie was first planned for November 11th release and then pushed to 20th and now they have pushed it to December 4th. Kona Venkat had announced that they are postponing the film to faciliatate long run for Akhil.

The trailers and audio of the film have got good marks for the film so far. Nikhil will be seen as a rich NRI guy who lands in Bihar for some reason with his friends. Sapthagiri comedy is said to be the major highlight and Anjali is seen as a lady don in the film. A new comer, Uday Nandanavanam is directing the film.

Nikhil is on a high with back to back hits after Swamy Ra Ra and Karthikeya. Kona Venkat has given story and screenplay. Kona had already revealed that the movie is a crime comedy with a Bihar backdrop and some incidents that he faced earlier this year have also acted as inspiration for few scenes.

The promotions of Akhil Akkineni’s debut film, Akhil were resumed after the makers have announced the new release date of the film. Akhil will be placed for censor tomorrow. The Regional Censor Board in Hyderabad will decide up on the film certification after watching the movie.

Akhil is releasing on November 11th as Diwali Special. It is known that the movie scheduled for Dussehra is postponed due to some error in the Graphics work. Now that the correction work is complete. Nagarjuna had seen the first copy of the film the other day and finalized the release date.

Mass Masala director VV Vinayak is wielding megaphone for this film. The movie is a hot cake in trade and is witnessing never before business for a debutant. Akhil had done prerelease business worth 47 Crore which is the highest ever for a new comer in the history of Telugu cinema.

Naga Chaitanya is attempting the remake of Malayalam blockbuster, Premam. The film is titled Majnu and will be directed by Karthikeya fame Chandoo Mondenti. The film will have its launch on 30th November and the film will start rolling immediately a day after its launch.

Naga Chaitanya will complete the shooting and dubbing of his next, Saahasam Swaasaga Saagipo by then. Majnu will be shot extensively in the exotic locales of Visakhapatnam, Rajahmundry, Goa, Europe, Pollachi and Araku.

Shruti Hassan, Rakul Preet Singh and Anupama Parameshwaran are the heroines as per the rumour mills. Buzz is that Nagarjuna will be seen in a little cameo while Victory Venkatesh will play the hero’s father in the movie. More details of this project later.

‘Size Zero’ from early on is publicized as a message based film with entertaining treatment offered by director Prakash Kovelamudi and his wife Kanika Dhillon. In the initial stages when this story or idea is conceptualized, they never had an idea of making this project on big scale. Prakash approached Prasad V Potluri with story and the prestigious banner PVP Cinema found that the line has more capacity for commercial exploitation.

‘PVP made this film so big because we had a small idea and they made it look very fat, big,’ as said by Prakash at a recent meet. When names like Anushka, Arya and Sonal Chauhan arrived into the casting team, apparently the focus became wider and today ‘Size Zero’ is one more awesome project for which Telugu audience have been waiting for release.

More than the budget and scale of artists present, K Raghavendra Rao would surely love to see his son established as a commercial director forwarding his legacy. New ideas always have a special market and hopefully, Prakash Kovelamudi will gain the needed attention and respectable recognition with this hilarious flick.

If the debut film ‘Mukunda’ hasn’t done anything great or boosted Varun Tej’s cinema career, definitely ‘Kanche’ has put the young hero into altogether a different league. At a time when established heroes are also distancing from experimentation on new lines, Varun has done it with tremendous ease in very early career stages with all the support from dad Naga Babu and director Krish who were key members behind the screen for ‘Kanche.’

Now that ‘Kanche’ crossed half million mark in Overseas trade, this is a good sign for Varun Tej to develop separate market outside India. ‘Kanche’ result is obviously going to reflect a positive effect on Varun’s upcoming project ‘Loafer’ in Puri Jagannath direction. Although a tentative release date for this project is yet to be declared, sources say there are decent numbers of business calls received by producer C Kalyan.

If ‘Loafer’ succeeds in winning the respect from masses and especially Mega Fans, it would be a great achievement for Varun Tej. Looks like, the young hero had a perfect sketch to exploit on Overseas and domestic trades in parallel. ‘Kanche’ and ‘Loafer’ are sure to take his image by long way.

It has been speculated that Anushka would tap her feet with Stylish Star Allu Arjun for a special song in his upcoming film ‘Sarainodu’. But the latest snippet says that no one has approached Anushka from the production team of the movie for the special song.

On the other hand, heroine Anjali is likely to be roped in for the special song in ‘Sarainodu’. Having impressed with Anjali’s looks and her performance in ‘Shankarabharanam’ trailer, the makers of ‘Sarainodu’ have reportedly decided to opt for the cute and chubby Anjali for the song. More details on her special cameo are awaited.

Rakul Preet Singh sizzles opposite to Allu Arjun in this out and out action entertainer. Thaman is composing the music of the movie. The movie is being directed by Boyapati Srinu, who is riding high on the success of ‘Legend’. The movie is being produced by mega producer Allu Aravind on Geetha Arts. The movie will hit the screens in the month of February.

As his ‘Pataas’ got the first super hit of the year status, Nandamuri Kalyan Ram’s latest offing ‘Sher’ was thought to be recording decent numbers at the box office. The movie carried negative talk on the release day. Yet again, it was expected the movie would get respectable collections.

In spite of the positive vibes prior to the movie’s release, ‘Sher’ has reportedly ended up faring around Rs.3 crores in full run world wide. These numbers have naturally left big shocker to everyone especially Nandamuri fans.

Natasimham Nandamuri Balakrishna’s exclusive fans, in fact, promoted the movie aggressively with a couple of flexes, banners and hoardings installed in many centers of AP and Telangana. Eventually, all of their attempts have gone futile. ‘Sher’ has been starred by Sonal Chowhand as a female lead. Mallikarjun has directed this action and comedy entertainer.
