Photo Feature: Sizing up Sonakshi
Sonakshi Sinha has upped her glam quotient a lot since we saw her in Dabangg. She is increasingly getting stylish and extremely gorgeous.
From sporting some really funky wear to keeping it chic, Sonakshi’s done it all and with great ease. It also works in her favour that she always keeps her perky, cheery and no-holds-barred personality in mind before choosing an attire.
Now how many in the industry can boast about that. So when we saw the recent Vogue cover of Sonakshi Sinha, we were left gaping. She has outdone her previous Vogue stint with this one.
Nithin Offers 1 Cr For Her!
Rakul Preeth Singh is riding high in Tollywood at the moment with many biggies in her kitty. She is the heroine in NTR, Ram Charan and Mahesh Babu’s next films.
Despite the demand, Rakul Preeth Singh hasn’t yet hiked her pay check. Her attractive price tag is one of the main reasons for her to bag these many big projects.
Rakul is eyeing the number one spot with high profile projects on hand. It would be extremely difficult for mid range heroes grab her dates at this point.
As per the buzz from film circles, Nithin is trying to rope in Rakul Preeth Singh for his next project. Rakul will have to squeeze in dates between the biggies to adjust dates for this one.
Nithin is aware of Rakul’s demand in Tollywood and is offering 1 crore for her. This is more than double to what Rakul is charging at the moment say sources.
Interestingly Rakul was supposed to do a film with Nithin earlier. Nithin replaced Rakul with another heroine after that movie was shelved. Now he is willing to pay eight figured salary if she agrees to team up with him.
Deepika Madly In Love?
After her breakup with Ranbir Kapoor, it took some time for Deepika Padukone to get back to normal. Though she did date Siddharth Mallya for a brief while, nothing came out of it.
Rumors then surfaced that Deepika was dating her ‘Ram Leela’ co-star, Ranvir Singh. But many felt that this was just a gimmick to promote the movie. Apparently, Deepika and Ranvir really are in love.
The duo is reported to be living together in Mumbai and Deepika is not losing out on even a single opportunity to praise Ranveer to the skies.
She also says that Ranveer is hotter and more sensible than Ranbir Kapoor.
But knowing Ranbir Kapoor, this statement would not make much of a difference as he is the sort of person who tends to take such things in his stride. And he also has Katrina Kaif on hand to keep him busy.

Boyapati clarifies about Bunny’s Title
For the past few days, media was abuzz with the news that Stylish Star Allu Arjun’s next under the direction of Boyapati Srinu is titled ‘Radham’ (Chariot). However Boyapati today clarified on the title. “Radham is not the title in consideration for the movie. All these are baseless rumours.
We have a powerful title for the film and it will be revealed at appropriate time”, said the director. Mega fans are very much disturbed at that not so attractive title for the movie and reportedly kept on flooding Boyapati’s office and Geeta Arts office for the change in the title.
So, this clarification from the direction should pacify them. Bunny is currently on a summer vacation to foreign country with family and then will begin his next. Boyapati Srinu will be directing the film which will have its regular shooting from May 15th.
The makers are planning to complete the film in non stop schedules and plan its release for Sankranthi 2016. SS Thaman will be scoring the music and Geetha Arts will be producing this flick which is touted to be an action oriented Love Story.
Currently the hunt is on to finalize the two heroines of the film. It would be interesting to see how Boyapati presents the stylish star Allu Arjun in an action avatar.

Taapsee Joins ‘Live-In Relationship’ Club
Recently, Nithya Menon surprised everyone by speaking out in favor of live-in relationships.
“What’s wrong in i?” questioned Nithya. Now she played the role of a girl in a live-in relationship in her latest flick ‘Ok Bangaram’. So, she might have said that to promote her film.
But Taapsee Pannu has also come out in support of such relationships now.
“I think it makes sense. Two people can live together as long as they are fond of each other and then go their separate ways once the magic is over. Why get married and then quarrel for the rest of your life” says Taapsee.
These heroines will do well to remember Rajnikanth’s dialogue in the movie ‘Baba’. ‘Aadadi gadapa daatithe chedipothundi, mogadu gadapa dataka pothe chedipothadu.’
Bobbili family warning to Jagan?
The voices of dissent is not only growing louder in the YSRCP in Vizianagaram district over the possible entry of former PCC boss Botsa Satyanarayana into Jagan’s party soon, but sources say that his entry may be proving costly to Jagan with reports that Bobbili rajas have warned to snap ties with the party.
They are all set to join BJP or TDP, both of whom are reportedly wooing them ardently. There are speculations in north coastal Andhra that the ardent followers of Bobbili rajas namely Bobbili MLA Sujay Krishna Ranga Rao as well as his brother Baby Nayana, who had lost therecent Lok Sabha election against Ashok Gajapati Raju includingsenior leader Penmetsa are pressurizing leaders in informing theirdissent to Jagan.
Sources say that while Botsa enjoys support from the East and West Godavari leaders of YSRCP, opposition to his entry is only becoming stronger due to the anti—Botsa groups in Srikakulam and Vizag districtas well which are joining hands.
The Bobbili brothers had to quit Congress due to severe harassmentfrom Botsa, who seems to have created many hurdles in terms of development works at their strong hold constituencies and hence they joined Jagan. But now with news that bête noire is joining Jagan, the cadre and leaders have given an ultimatum to Jagan.
Not Pawan, but his family questions TDP
Power star Pawan Kalyan who launched his Jana Sena Party amid muchhype had once stated that he is here to question in case TDP or BJP doesn’t perform well after winning the mandate in 2014 elections.Except for sudden hype which dies down and occasional tweets, PK isyet to get down to business.
The saga of special status for AP has been dragging on with no end insight even after Centre hinting that doors are more or less closed for AP. Although TDP can pull out of NDA, Chandrababu doesn’t want to sacrifice other benefits because of this issue and hence there is astrategic silence all the time.
Now rather than PK, his elder brother and mega star Chiranjeevi has been questioning Chandrababu Naidu. Presumed to be politicallyinactive, Chiru sprang a surprise at Congress meeting and severallycriticized Chandrababu for not quitting NDA over special status issue.
He also mentioned how Naidu had threatened to walk out of NDA in 2002 when BJP was refusing to axe Modi as CM after Godhra riots. Chiru questioned that when Naidu was able to issue threats for that issue, why not a serious stand over special status. Well, Chiru has fired not just one but many questions.
Chandrababu stops salary of GHMC Commissioner?
How can it possible? Can AP Chief Minister able to stop payments to Hyderabad Commissioner? It can possible in case of Somesh Kumar. He is working for Special Officer and Commissioner for GHMC. Somesh Kumar is considered to be part of AP cadre in division of IAS officers by the Prathyusha Sinha Committee. This could not make happy for 1989 batch IAS Officer Somesh Kumar.
Disappointed Somesh had approached CAT (Central Administrative Tribunal) for seeking justice. CAT took some time in taking the final decision. Somesh Kumar fate will be finalized within two days. AP Chief Minister CBN took the decision to stop the monthly payments to the IAS Officers who are not willing to work for AP even after division confirmed by Prathusha Sinha Committee. If this is true, Somesh might not get his April month salary.
On other hand, TRS workers are also not happy with the style of functioning of Municipal Commissioner. The property tax drive boomeranged in GHMC and High Court also slammed Somesh attitude in the regard. Someh made his mark of administration in Hyderabad and creates the belief among the people that he is strong for Telangana. It will be problem for him to mingle with AP cadre, if CAT not approved his plea.
Ram Charan commiting a big blunder
Mega Power Star Ram Charan is a minimum guarantee hero in industry. He some how is breaching the minimum 40 Crore share every time even with average films. The biggest secret behind this success is Ram Charan’s Planning. He always make sure that his films release during Festival season so that they cash in the holidays. Similarly he planned his next in the direction of Srinu Vaitla on October 15th.
The date is chosen to coincide with the Dussehra holidays for students. Schedules are drawn perfectly so that the movie makes it for October 15th. However some thing went wrong. Ram Charan after completing the first schedule suddenly went to Bangkok for Marshall Arts training. As a result one major schedule planned in Hyderabad is totally missed. The next schedule of the movie will begin in May first Europe.
Three songs of the movie will be canned there. Due to the missing out the second schedule, they say the movie releasing for October 15th is very difficult. In such case Ram Charan may have to release it in the dull November-December season or hold it till Sankranthi 2016 release. Since Srinu Vaitla’s film attract maximum number of family audience, holiday season is the best bet for Ram Charan.
Releasing in any other time except Dusshera or Sankranthi will be very risky. If Charan opts for November or December release, it will be a big blunder for sure. Kona Venkat and Gopimohan who deserted Srinu Vaitla for Aagadu are back again in the team with this project. Thaman is composing tunes.
Trade: Mindblowing Craze for Ganga

Finally Senior Producer and distributor, Dil Raju came to rescue of the film. He cleared all the decks before the release of the film and is releasing the film on May 1st. Usually the craze of a film decreases when it encounters financial problems.
