After making her silver screen debut with Sumanth starrer Boni in 2009, beautiful Kannada actress of Punjabi origins, Kriti Kharbanda, got a huge break with Powerstar Pawan Kalyan’s Teen Maar. However, the movie’s disappointing box-office result did not help Kriti’s career in Tollywood, even though she appeared in films like Mr. Nokayya, Ala Modalaindi, Ongole Githa, Om 3D etc.

Kriti is currently acting in Ram Charan’s upcoming action entertainer, Bruce Lee. In the film, Kriti grabbed a plum role as she plays Ram Charan’s sister. The movie’s success might well change Kriti’s fate in Tollywood. Now, in a strange coincidence, Kriti has just signed yet another film titled Bruce Lee in Tamil.

This Tamil Bruce Lee has the young and happening music director turned actor GV Prakash Kumar as its hero and Kriti plays his romantic interest. Yesterday, the film was launched formally and Kriti is that rare actress who is acting in two films that share the same title. Even more, Kriti replaced Nayanthara in the Tamil Bruce Lee and this film’s box-office hit will catapult her into the big league.

Doting Dad. Caring brother. Aged grandpa. Dreaded villain. Sincere police officer. And more. That’s the list we could write when we have to talk about the roles being performed by Prakash Raj all these days.

With Prakash getting busy, in demand, and more costlier, what anyone thinks about is a better replacement for him. For years, Telugu industry hasn’t found one, but it seems like talented actor Rao Ramesh is arriving as one. This year we have seen him in movies like S/o Satyamurthy and Pandaga Chesko have seen him in small yet impactful roles.

But the real punch has come from him through his father-in-law act in “Cinema Choopista Maava”. He’s simply superb with diction, expression and body language as a doting dad and an egoistic uncle.

And the other day’s release “Subramanyam For Sale” saw him delivering fantastic comedy in a small-time villain role. Just five scenes and he has blown minds. From then the talk has started, Rao Ramesh is the prefect replacement for Prakash Raj. With more than a dozen films in hand, no doubt he is.

Young Tiger NTR is back in the city after a strenuous two months schedule in London for his Nannaku Prematho. The actor reached Hyderabad last night and headed straight to his home. He will be staying here for two weeks and will then fly to Spain. The schedule there will begin from October 10th and it will go on for 20 days.

Entire shooting part of the movie will be completed by the end of the Spain schedule. The movie is on track for January 8th 2016 release as Sankranthi Special. The makers are planning to release the first look teaser of the film for Dussehra. Rakul Preet Singh is romancing NTR for the first time in her career.

BVSN Prasad is producing the film under his Sri Venkateswara Cine Chitra Banner. Devi Sri Prasad is the music composer. Young Tiger NTR will be called Abhiram in his next, Nannaku Prematho. Rumours say the actor may be seen as an Interpol Officer in the movie.

Postponements seem to be not evading Rudharama Devi. The movie was already postponed quite a good number of times until now. The makers have confidently said the movie is releasing on October 9th. However there are doubts on that release date too.

According to the buzz in the social media, financial issues have come back haunting the movie once again and now it may postponed to Sankranthi the next year. If it is the case, the trade and audience will totally lose the interest on the project.

However the makers remain tight-lipped about it. Allu Arjun is roped in to the project for the role of Gona Ganna Reddy to increase some hype. Catherine Tresa will pair up with Allu Arjun in the role of Anamika Devi.

Guna himself is producing the movie and had roped in some top class technicians on to the project. Maestro Ilayaraja is the music composer. Thota Tharani has erected all the sets for this historical film.

Days after cinematographer Jayanan Vincent walking out of Pawan Kalyan’s most anticipated Sardaar Gabbar Singh, now it’s the turn of none other than the lead actor Pawan Kalyan to walk out of the sets of the film.

Although the exact reasons for Pawan’s walk out are not yet revealed, the grapevine is that the differences between Pawan and director Bobby (alias KS Ravindra) could possibly be the reason. Pawan is reportedly upset with Bobby ever since Jayanan issue took place. Jayanan is senior technician and Pawan’s close aide.

He worked with Pawan for films like Badri, Theenmaar, Gabbar Singh, Gopala Gopala. In fact, Jayanan was the cinematographer for Bobby’s maiden directorial Power as well. However, things between duo go out of hands and Vincent decided to quit from the project due to Bobby.

Apart from this, it’s heard that Pawan is also not so happy with KS Ravindra. Sources in the know revealed that Pawan walked out of the sets indicating the same. Looks like, all is not well. Ever since Sardaar Gabbar Singh, franchise to blockbuster Gabbar Singh, has been announced, the film is in news for all wrong reasons.

The movie has been delayed for long time. First director Sampath Nandi was sacked followed by heroine Anisha Ambrose. Now reports have it that Bobby might be dropped from the project as well. It’s need to be seen. Let’s wait and see.

After impressing everyone with his sensible act as a child actor in numerous films, Tarun soon turned a hero with the blockbuster Nuvve Kavali in 2000. The film transformed Tarun into a lover boy overnight with incredible female following. He then went on to score good hits with films like Priyamaina Neeku, Nuvvu Leka Nenu Lenu etc.

However, most of Tarun’s films started bombing at the box-office and then came a huge slump in 2009, after the release of Krishna Vamsi’s Sasirekha Parinayam. Tarun went off the arc lights and set up a swanky pub in a posh area in Hyderabad. Many industry people thought that Tarun took a wide decision of stepping into his own business.

After a 4 year long wait, Tarun made an unsuccessful comeback with three films, Chukkalanti Ammayi Chakkanaina Abbayi , Yuddham and the Srikanth starrer Veta, which released in the last 2 years. Now, Tarun’s latest movie has been launched this morning, with industry biggies like Suresh Babu, Dasari Narayana Rao gracing the muhurtham event.
