Will Tollywood Welcome Back This Actress?
When the yesteryear heroine Raasi made a splash in the media with a special photoshoot with her little daughter recently, many were left wondering about her appearance all of a sudden. The cat has been let out finally. Rao is making her comeback to Tollywood in an important role.
As per the buzz, Raasi has been chosen for a crucial role in Naga Shaurya’s upcoming romantic family entertainer titles, Kalyan Vaibhogame. While her role is still under wraps, one would wonder what kind of roles would the popular actress fit in, since she outrightly made it clear that she is not game for mother roles in her second innings.
In Tollywood, actresses those fall into Raasi’s age group would usually get mother or sister roles and even aunt roles at times. Going by the way the kind of scripts our filmmakers are coming up with for female actors, it would be doubtful if Raasi would be offered a fullfledge woman centric role. Let’s hope that this beautiful actress will make a successful journey in her comeback.

Telangana’s new vote bank-Settlers?
During Telangana movement, supporters of Telangana and those who started fighting for the state branded seemandhra people as settlers. At that time all political leaders of Telangana and even various organisations made many insulting comments on andhra people calling them names and branding them as robbers who encroached their lands and robbed their jobs.
When questioned politicians and others changed tune saying their fight is against only Andhra politicians and not against people who made Hyderabad and Telangana their home. However things did not change as even after the formation of Telangana, parties started coining the insulting settlers word forgetting the fact no where in the country and in no other state the word settler is used against anyone.
The political parties in Telangana are ignoring the fact that Indians can live anywhere and in any state and they don’t need any permission from political parties and governments. Though people from other states are residing in Telangana, political parties started discriminating against seemandhra people calling them as settlers.
Now with GHMC elections fast approaching all parties started using the word settlers and try to make them as brand ambassadors and vote bank of Telangana.Though many people asked parties not to use settlers, parties are not heeding to them and some to derive political benefits formed settlers unions.
