Rajamouli going against the Trend!
In early years, there used to be a minimum of six songs in a movie. Gradually, the quality of music delivered by our music directors is on a decline and the songs in most films are usually becoming cigarette and loo breaks for audience.
And so, to make the audience more involved, the film makers are even opting for decreasing the number of songs. There are movies where the songs are only five or even less. However Rajamouli had shocked every one by revealing that there will be eight songs in Baahubali album which is against the trend.
The audio release event of the movie will take place on May 31st. The theatrical trailer of the film will be released on the same day. Both the Telugu and Tamil versions of the audio are going to be released on the same day by Lahari Music.
Narendra Modi’s Letter to Mohan Babu!
It is known that Manchu Manoj’s wedding took place as grand affair on Wednesday in Hyderabad. Several biggies of films and politics made their way to the wedding. Mohan Babu family traveled length and breadth of the country inviting all the VIPs to the last wedding of the generation in Manchu family.
They have even invited Prime Minister Narendra Modi. However owing to his busy schedule, Narendra Modi did not attend the wedding and so he wrote a letter to Mohan Babu and his family which carried his wishes to the newly married couple.
Mohan Babu is delighted at the respect bestowed by Modi. “He is a busy man and need not even remember our invitation. However he still remember us and wrote a letter. He did not reach such great heights for no reason”.
Hidden Secret Inside Mahesh’s Shirts
Look at Superstar at all of his recent public outings on official functions, then one thing will be pretty clear.
Mahesh Babu turns up in either a light-shaded grey color shirt or slips himself comfortably into a greyish blue colored shirt. Sometimes a silver coloured shirt that is slightly navy-bluish, while other times it is a simple self-patterned blue shirt. You got it clear. Other than those bluish-grey shirts, Mahesh is not wearing any other colour.
For being a crazy super star with brand endorsements in the likes of star Bollywood heroes, and for becoming the numero uno star with stunning box-office figures in his hand, Mahesh could rope in world-class designers to style him.
However, it is the same bluish-grey shirt and blue jeans all the time. This has become a curious case for fashion critics to study. What’s that unknown secret Mahesh carries behind this attire?
During family outings Mahesh is seen donning colourful tees and shorts too. Only at official functions, most recently at Manchu Manoj’s wedding, he’s following this dress code. Some people found out that Mahesh is following this dress code post the birth of his son Gautham.
Is there a piece of astrologer’s advice to dress in that colour? Does any numerological calculations are there to wear only bluish-grey shirt? Or should we say that it is Mahesh’s style statement?
Tough to decode this hidden secret behind Mahesh Babu’s shirts until the horse speaks for itself.
Pic Talk: Top Journalist Points Gun At Lalu Prasad Yadav
For a program titled “Aaj Tak Manthan” which is aimed to discuss about the pluses and minuses of 1 Year of Narendra Modi led BJP government, former Bihar Chief Minister Lalu Prasad Yadav is the chief guest today afternoon.
Hosting the show is none other than highly acclaimed Indian journalist and news anchor Rajdeep Sardesai. He was associated with CNN earlier and how he’s working with Headlines Today, an India Today group’s channel.
Showing the kind of warmth that senior politician and this senior journalist shares, here is a picture that stunned everyone. Calling Lalu as an old infighting partner, Rajdeep pointed his index and middle finger combined as a gun’s barrel and pointed it against Lalus face.
He says “Gun without a license to kill”. Lallu is known both for his scandals and tyranny than his service to people, while Rajdeep for his upright journalism. This is surely an epic picture of sorts as our top journo killed Lallu many a times virtually in his TV shows.

English Songs In Baahubali Movie??
Are there English songs in Rajamouli’s 100+ crore spectacle Baahubali? If we have to go by the tracks list of “Baahubali: The Beginning”, we have to say that there is an English song for sure. As we need to wait until May 31st to find out more about this song, let’s see why this discussing popped up.
All in all Baahubali Part I album consists are eight songs written by many lyricists including Siva Sakthi Dutta, Chaitanya Prasad, Ramajogayya Sastry, Ananta Sriram, Inaganti Sundar, Noel Sean and Aditya. Some of these lyricists are widely popular and some are just familiar to audiences. But one name is going to give everyone a break of sorts in their thoughts.
Yes, it’s Noel Sean. Popular as actor, anchor, singer, RJ and rapper, Noel is known for writing English lyrics for many movies. Most recently Noel was seen as an actor in Sai Dharam’s “Rey” where he has done a negative shaded character, while he wrote English lyrics for a song in Rajasekhar’s Gaddam Gang.
After acting in Rajamouli’s Eega as Nani’s friend, what’s this guy doing in the lyricist team of this epic war film? Did Rajamouli made him write any English song related to Europeans who attacked Baahubali’s Mahismathi Kingdom? Or Noel tried his hand at Telugu lyrics for the first time? Anyway, Baahubali is not going to have those modern day Telugu lyrics but of poetry and medieval-age styled language.
UK Embassy disappoints NTR big time!
We always think that our star heroes are invincible and they can get every thing and any thing in the World. But it is not always true. Here is an example. NTR liked the work of Cinematographer Richard Prasad very much in Swamy Ra Ra and Dochey.
He intentionally brought him on board for his next, Maa Nannaku Prematho directed by Sukumar. Every thing is set but in the last minute Richard Prasad’s Visa was rejected by UK embassy. The Visa application was rejected twice now for some unknown reason.
As time is running out, the makers have replaced Richard Prasad with Vijay Chakravarthy who previously worked for films like Bommarillu, Parugu, Oy, Mr.Perfect etc. The film will now start rolling from June 3rd.
A 70 days marathon schedule is planned there. The makers are planning to release the film for Sankranthi 2016 at any cost.
After Mahesh And Akhil, Bunny Goes National
Brand endorsements are not new for film stars and our Telugu superstars are no different. From megastar Chiranjeevi to Akhil who is yet to debut, all of them are much favoured when it comes to top brands. However, till recently, the ads with big companies were restricted only to Telugu language and were not promoted elsewhere.
But Mahesh became the first Telugu superstar to break this tradition when his Thums Up ad was not only in Telugu, but also in Hindi at the national level.
And close after him, Akhil got the opportunity when he was part of the Titan ad, where he was cast along with Kalki. Of course, he managed to make an appearance on the national canvass even before he debuted as a hero.
And now, Bunny who has just had a back-to-back hit with Race Gurram and S/O Satyamurthy and has been having a good run at the box office for quite some time has got the opportunity to be part of the national scene.
Right now, he is seen in Glamour bike ad on national television. Incidentally, the ad is being aired during breaks in between IPL matches and it goes to show the success of Allu Arjun in recent times.
Behind The Scene: Double-Speak CM?
KCR says that there is going to be absolutely no compromise when it comes to acquiring land from OU, for constructing houses for the poor. But at the same time, he wants the Congress Party to compromise.
The Congress is constructing a Party office at Bhimrao wada in Hyderabad and land has already been allotted for this purpose. Obviously this will inconvenience the residents there and they took the matter to KCR’s notice.
KCR said that he would take the issue up with the Congress and ask them not to disturb the residents of Bhimrao Wada. He said that his government would allot land elsewhere to the Congress for their Party office.
Why can’t KCR display the same flexibility in dealing with the OU problem?
Why disturb only OU lands specifically for his projects when there is plenty of land available elsewhere.
T Formation Day turning into Black Day?
When Andhra Pradesh was bifurcated to form separate state of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, many Telanganites erupted with joy. Many who believed TRS chief KCR’s statements that Telangana will be turning into Golden Telangana after separation with the creation of jobs, improved facilities to people, gave thumping majority to TRS..
Students are now conducting intense protest marches and started burning the effigies of KCR. With KCR vitiating the atmosphere, branding them as ‘bachchagallu’, blood of the students is boiling red hot.
They warned that if anyone tries to snatch away lands belonging to Osmania University, consequences will be completely different. Many feel that Telangana state formation day may witness Black Day protests.
That Lucky Guy Who Guarded Aishwarya’s Gown
Initially timeless diva Aishwarya Rai Bachhan has disappointed onlookers with her dresses at the ongoing 65th Cannes Film Festival, but not anymore. As she walked in the monochrome colored designer gown crafted by Ralph and Russo, the whole of Cannes went gaga discussing about her dazzling ensemble and that flash of her well-toned leg that is peeping out.
As Aish flaunts her perfect curves, it’s impossible to carry the ruffled wavy bottom of her gown all by herself. That’s why one of her chauffer (car driver) helped her in carrying the clustered attire. Probably after looking at the way he’s helping our married siren on the red carpet, will men not feel jealous of those acts? Definitely they say this guy is the luckiest on the planet, anyway only after Jr Bachhan.
Meanwhile Aishwarya is enjoying her stint at Cannes as she revealed the first look of her flick “Jazbaa”. Very soon she will be coming back to India to finish pending work on her comeback project.
