“Parannageevi” is a counter web movie from Pawan Kalyan’s fans to defame Ram Gopal Varma since the maverick filmmaker made a satirical movie named “Powerstar” on their matinee idol.
While Ram Gopal Varma’s “Powerstar” doesn’t go beyond what was shown in the trailer, this movie turns out to be even worse.
The director of “Parannageevi” lacks the intellect acumen. Hence, the satirical dialogue hovers around the ‘level of Jabaradasth’ program.
In a no-holds-barred manner, “Parannageevi” hits out at Ram Gopal Varma depicting him as a womanizer, a filmmaker who practices casting couch, a person with no moral values. But the film with a runtime of 40 minutes doesn’t have a story or a proper screenplay to speak of.
Director Nutan Naidu should have worked on the script if he intended to give a befitting reply to RGV.
Sample these dialogues to understand at what low the makers stooped to paint him as a lecherous man
– “Lift kavalante velu ettali…character kavalante emi ettalo telidaa…”
– Vodka naa peg loki ravali, figure naa pakkaloki ravali’,
– “Tupaki pelchadam rakapoyina Tutalu matram pakkanundali”
– “Nenu vodka tagutunnappudu…women pakknaa unnappudu nijame matladaatanu”.
Shakalaka Shankar who essays the role of RGV is in the usual self. Kathi Mahesh appears as a film producer. Lakshman as RGV’s assistant is okay.
The uninspiring writing, poor directorial skills, and incoherent sequences of “Parannageevi” make Ram Gopal Varma’s ‘Powerstar” look like a far refined movie than this.
Beyond projecting RGV as a womanizer, the film achieves nothing. Of course, that was the intention of the makers.
Bottom-line: Substandard

Parasakthi advances release to avoid Telugu Sankranthi box-office rush
These days, while finding a release date in the Tamil circuit has become relatively easier, securing a slot with strong positioning at the Telugu box office is proving to be increasingly difficult. In that context, Tamil hero Sivakarthikeyan’s upcoming film “Parasakthi” has reportedly advanced its release date—and the primary reason appears to be Telugu market constraints rather than Tamil competition.
Originally scheduled for a January 14 theatrical release, Parasakthi, directed by Sudha Kongara and starring Sreeleela as the female lead, is now planned to arrive in cinemas on January 10. With all the songs already released and aggressive promotions underway in Tamil, the makers seem confident that an early release works in the film’s favour.
Interestingly, the team doesn’t seem overly concerned about clashing with Tamil superstar Vijay’s “Jana Nayagan”, which is also expected to release around the same time. The bigger concern, trade sources say, is the packed Telugu box office during Sankranthi. If Parasakthi were to release on Sankranthi eve, finding theatres in Telugu states would be nearly impossible.
This Pongal season, Telugu cinema is expected to witness a heavy festive lineup, with at least five major films targeting prime screens. Big names like Chiranjeevi, Prabhas, Ravi Teja, Sharwanand, Naveen and others are already in the race, with distribution deals locked well in advance. Naturally, Tamil films are finding it hard to secure space.
Trade circles also point out that Telugu producers and distributors are no longer aggressively chasing big Tamil films, which further explains why the makers of Parasakthi opted to advance the release date.
