Kolaveri Di fame music director Anirudh Ravichander became one of the most sought after composers in Kollywood in short span. He is now foraying into Tollywood with Nithin and Trivikram Srinivas combination film A..Aa (Anasuya Ramalingam vs Anand Vihari).

The young and sensational composer is said to be charging Rs 1.5 crore for the film. This shocking remuneration makes him highest paid music director in Telugu. This is really surprising, Trivikram shares good affiliation with Devi Sri Prasad, nevertheless he picked Anirudh instead for a change.

While Tollywood’s top composer DSP gets around Rs 1 crore, SS Thaman is paid nearly 60 to 80 lakhs for a film. Young music directors like Anup Rubens and Mickey J Meyer charge 50 lakhs or less. Although, makers of A..Aa have brought in Anirudh since music plays key role in the family entertainer.

In fact, Anirudh was original choice for Ram Charan’s next arrival Bruce Lee-The Fighter. But, he was replaced by Thaman owing to unknown reasons. Some say, huge demand from Anirudh made him out of the project.

Curiously, most of the Tamil films of Anirudh were musical hits. He is good at rendering peppy as well as melody tracks. This young man is expert in providing soothing background score. It is to be seen whether he puts in the same dedication for Telugu cinema too.

When it comes to public appearances, there is no doubt that celebrities are closely observed by media and enthusiastic fans. But this paparazzi and fan frenzy often gets overboard, thereby creating embarrassment and discomfort to the stars.

In one such incident, it was Tollywood’s Megastar Chiranjeevi’s turn to become the victim of over enthusiasm of a ‘diehard’ fan at a filmy event recently. Apparently, this fan was following Chiru wherever he goes and was constantly trying to approach the Megastar despite the presence of his security men.

But Chiru, who is otherwise very loving towards his fans, finally lost his cool when the so called fan again tried to approach him just as Chiru was stepping in his car after concluding an audio launch function recently.

Chiru warned the fan telling him not to stalk him all the time and even scolded him. It is high time for fans to realize that they should leave their favorite stars in peace at least in some moments.

The upcoming Nadigar Sangam (Actors’ Union) election in the Tamil Film industry will take place on 18th of this month.

He stated with reference to Vishal, “What is wrong in demolishing the Nadigar Sangam building and leasing it to SPI Cinemas to build a theatre?  What have you done for the Nadigar Sangam to raise questions about it? Where were you when the deal with SPI cinemas was signed? Why didn’t you object then?”

Simbu further stated that they want Nadigar Sangam to be united and for that Sarath Kumar panel is ready to withdraw from the elections.Sarath Kumar’s wife and veteran actress Radhika questioned Rajinikanth Kamal Haasan stating for their silence over the elections. Urvashi, director Bhagyaraj and his wife Poornima were also present at the press meet.
