Viewing pornographic content has been decided as one of the contributors to the crime against women by the special committee constituted by Telangana CM KCR. With such a strong recommendation, the government of Telangana has taken a stand to block all the obscene material freely available on the Internet. CID was given the job of identifying the porn stuffed websites and Facebook accounts a couple of weeks back.

After some extensive research, CID has come up with a list of 1500 websites and 5000 Facebook Pages that’s promoting explicit content and submitted the report to Home Ministry department of Telangana. As the Internet Service Providers need a clear directive from DoT [Dept of Telecommunication] to ban a particular site, Home Minister Naayini Narasimha Reddy has forwarded the extensive list to Central Government on behalf of Telangana government.

Though there were many cases/recommendations like these recorded in the past, the ban wasn’t imposed until now. We need to see if Telangana government can succeed in doing so.

Nandamuri Balakrishna’s Lion opened to bad talk this morning. The movie released in approximately 900 screens all over the World. The film should do at least 25 Crores to become a break-even for all the involved parties. Experts say that buyers in some areas can achieve break-even with some good publicity.

However both the heroines of the film – Trisha and Radhika Apte deserted the film. Trisha intimated the makers that she would not come to the promotions as she do not want to take any questions from the media regarding the breakup with Varun Manian after engagement. She told sorry to them so as not to keep herself in awkward position by facing such questions.

On the other side, recently Radhika Apte’s clip from an international film got leaked on to the web. The actress was seen lifting her top and showing her Pu**y to a man in that clip. She is now avoiding Lion promotions so as to avoid questions regarding that clip.

Tamil actor Simbu has the image of a playboy after being involved in relationships with Nayanthara and Hansika.

Hence, no one was surprised when Simbu and Hansika parted ways. But Simbu who is now doing a film with Gowtham Menon revealed some interesting things.

“It was Hansika who left me and I was very depressed because of that. The last couple of years have been very tough for me. I haven’t had a single release and my financial position was so terrible that I had to ask my mother for my daily expenses,” said Simbu.

He further added that things were looking up again and hoped that the current movie with Gowtham Menon would change his fortunes for the better. This then is Simbu’s version of events. Wonder whether this is the truth or he is just trying to gain some sympathy.

We shall know if Hansika responds to his statements.

The success of ‘Oohalu Gusagusa Laade’ propelled Naga Shourya into the limelight and he can thank Srinivas Avasarala, the director for it.

The young hero is getting some good offers and currently has two films on hand: one being made by Multi Dimensions banner and the other in the direction of Nandini Reddy.

His latest movie ‘Jaadugadu’ is also due for release in which he has played a mass character for the first time in his career. Against this backdrop, Naga Shourya convened a press meet to which he invited the media and apart from speaking about ‘Jaadugadu’ also requested the media to support him in his career.

“I am a small hero and just now progressing in my career. Your support will be invaluable to me,” said Naga Shourya.

Puri Jagannadh had just completed the shooting of his next, Jyothi Lakshmi in under 50 working days. Every one are amazed by his speed. The ace director now bagged a bumper offer to direct Chiranjeevi’s 150th film which will go on floors from September.

Since the movie is more than 4 months away, Puri is planning to complete Varun Tej’s film or Nithin’s film before the epic film. Besides these three projects, Puri the other day announced that the script for his third film with Mahesh Babu is locked.

Sources close to Puri Jagannadh say that the director is likely to complete these four projects in less than 2 years of time which makes it six releases in 2 years for Puri. This speed is envy to any of the leading directors in Telugu today.

Nandamuri Balakrishna’s just-released Lion has many surprises in offering and the important one is that his film, for the first-of-its-kind, has shown and dealt with impressive set of technological advancements. Be it dealing about hacking which plays pivotal role in affecting CCTV footage and intrusion of TV channels broadcast or tracking the whereabouts of protagonist using GPS technology by villain Prakash Raj (Bharadwaj in the movie) or talking about security firewalls and protection of high-profile data, Lion has it all when it comes to dealing with latest technology.

Considering the actor has great fan base among masses, usually his films would be loaded with high-octane action scenes and noxious doses of violences with a lot of blood shed. But the Legend star moved on from his forte and tried to befriend tech geeks.

At the same time, Balayya also made sure to include masala – which his fans expect from him – in the movie. Punch-liners, over play of action sequences, sentiment and entertainment are the factors that Balayya didn’t give it a miss in Lion. With the blend of both traditional and non-conventional elements, Balayya’s Lion has something to offer for all set of audiences. That’s Balayya for you folks.

Actor Nandamuri Balakrishna had a sleepless night on Wednesday (May 13), a day before the release of his latest offing Lion. According to the inside sources, the actor was in Vijayawada and had travelled all the way to Hyderabad as he wants to promote his just released Lion.

“Balayya had sleepless night. He spent a lot of time in travelling and looked strained a bit. But he’s not worried about his sleep. He was more excited about the release of his 98th film Lion. He was as excited as if it was his first film,” said the source. He added that Balayya came to his house, took bath and offered prayers to God before leaving to a theatre in Hyderabad where the premiere show was being screened.

As soon as Balayya entered the theatre, crowds were seen welcoming their favourite matinee idol with cheers, whistles.  Slogans like “CM Balayya” and “Jai Balayya…Jai Jai Balayya” from fans were deafening. Balayya greeted the crowd in his trademark style and left the theatre without disturbing the crowd further. Considering that this is Balakrishna’s 98th film and first film after taking reigns as public representative (MLA) of Hindupur, huge hype has surrounded the film.
