Yesterday morning, senior actor and filmmaker Dasari Narayana Rao sparked off numerous discussions regarding the release dates clash between the two big films of this Dasara season and said that Rudhramadevi would have created box-office history had the next week’s release (read Bruce Lee) is delayed by one week.

This prompted the crucial man who is related to both Rudhramadevi and Bruce Lee, Allu Arjun. Allu Arjun garnered appreciation for his brilliant performance as Gona Gannareddy in Rudhramadevi. Now, he has become the real-life Robin Hood as he took his cousin Ram Charan’s side in these testing moments.

In his words, Bunny tweeted, “It is unfair to blame the producer of BRUCELEE for not moving their release date by a week. They have announced it long back that their release date is October 16th. RUDRAMADEVI was supposed to release on September 4th which they could not for many reasons. Knowing the release date of BRUCELEE the producer of RUDHRAMADEVI released it on October 9th with a hope that both films can run in the market simultaneously. Now it is unfair for anyone to blame BRUCELEE for overlapping.”

This once again shows how matured and sportive Bunny is. While he seemingly looks to be taking his family’s side, Bunny also cleared the air regarding Bruce Lee overlapping with Rudhramadevi, whereas the real scenario is quite opposite. Needless to say, Bunny’s explanation will put an end to the topic for now.

“Dictator” Balayya is busy with the shooting of this latest movie, and we hear that he is invoking the popular third heroine sentiment for this Sriwass directorial. Earlier in the past, Balayya used to have two heroines in each film and then there is a third heroine sizzling at least in one song. All those films have turned to be super hits.

In “Samara Simha Reddy” we have Anjala Zaveri and Simran in the leads, while Sangavi did a crucial role. Later in “Narasimha Naidu” he rocked screen with Simran and Preeti Jhangiani, while Asha Saini sizzled in a short role. Same is the case in “Simha” where Nayantara and Sneha Ullal are lead girls, while Namitha did a song-scene role.

Reportedly, Balayya is roping in a third heroine for “Dictator” too, and it’s none other than heroine Aksha Pardasany. Already the film has Anjali and Sonal Chauhan in the leads, while Aksha will sizzle in couple of scenes and a song.

Also with no film hand, this is going to be a big break for Aksha if she succeeds to woo youths with her newly achieved slim look.

Ace director Sreenu Vytla has made some startling comments today while interacting with media to promote his October 16th release “Bruce Lee”. As we said already, Sreenu Vaitla is a changed man post “Aagadu” debacle and his perspective about looking things got altered heavily.

Much before the release of “Aagadu”, Sreenu Vytla is said to have one big sentiment. In case if a film scores less, he will never repeat the main actors of those films. But after learning through Aagadu that nothing could save fate of film apart from content, Vytla says, “I’m not believer of sentiments now”. Especially when it comes to presence of Megastar Chiru and Nadiya in “Bruce Lee”, he rejected the idea of roping them in for sentiments.

As we know, Chiru-Charan’s first appearance together is for “Magadheera” and the film became an industry hit. And also all those films that have seen Nadiya (Mirchi and Attarintiki Daredi) are super hits at box office. “No, that’s not the reason why we roped Megastar and Nadiya. They are not a sentiment for me, but they are a requirement for the roles”, Sreenu Vytla confirms.

Cine lovers say, such requirements will become sentiments if the film scores blockbuster on October 16th. Blockbuster is the requirement here.

Writer Vakkantham Vamsi who was waiting on sidelines for NTR’s nod to become director finally got his nod. The project will be launched in late February or early March. However the movie will start rolling only in the second half of 2016.

NTR wants to complete the shooting of his next, NTR26 with Koratala Siva and release it before shifting his focus on to Vakkantham’s project. So the project may see light towards the end of 2016 or early 2017 NTR’s brother, Kalyan Ram will be producing the film on his NTR Arts banner.

Kalyan Ram who suffered a massive flop recently with Kick-2, is banking on this project to be back on success track.
