Nagarjuna new look for Next Movie


King Nagarjuna is experimenting a new look for the item number in his forthcoming action flick Bhai. He is looking totally different with new hairstyle and costume. Nag hasn't tried this kind of look before in his long career.

Brazilian Model and Bollywood Actress Nathalia Kaur is doing the item song opposite Nagarjuna. Item song is shooted in two different locations, at Bangkok and in the Annapurna Studio. 

Veerabhadram of Sunil's Poolarangadu fame is directing this action entertainer. Richa Gangopadyay is the female lead for the first time opposite Nagarjuna. The movie is expected to release in the second half of this year.

No Tamil Version of 'Shivam'

No Tamil Version of 'Shivam'

Much spoken about debut of Mahesh Babu into Kollywood with Krish directed 'shivam' may not turn true in reality because of various production and direction constraints. As of now, the fresh update is Krish has zeroed upon Sonkashi Sinha as heroines besides Mahesh in this project which is expected to go on sets by later half of this year. In this regards, 'Lots of support from the south for my Telegu debut.Really looking forward to it... Feels like Dabangg dj vu debut with superstar,script I couldnt refuse,capable and intelligent director! Shoot starts later this year.Its going to be a great journey,' Sonakshi Sinha wrote on her micro blogging page.
With 'Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum,' director Krish has definitely fallen into the row of mass loving directors even though his intellectual sense is well mixed here and there. It is to be seen whether, Krish will continue his experimental and intelligent cinema style or roll out a pucca commercial entertainer.

Prabhas To Touch Rs.10 Crores

Prabhas To Touch Rs.10 Crores

As we were repeatedly mentioning on the actual commercial potentiality of prabhas has not been tapped till now by any of our directors, finally it is Koratala Siva who seems to have believed in it. Collections of 'Mirchi' are wondering many trade analysts not just because this flick is going to be the highest grosser in prabhas career but also because of the way overseas audience are showering their love for Young Rebel Star. After Pawan Kalyan and Mahesh Babu, the new heartthrob for Telugu NRI public is prabhas.
By any chance...if 'Mirchi' touches Rs.40 Crores mark, we might see an enormous hike not only in the craze of prabhasbut also in his remuneration part. Currently, he is considered as one of the affordable personality for both higher medium and top range producers taking Rs.5 to 6 Crores per film. Now, there is every chance of proportionate rise in his fee structure as 'Mirchi' established a new mania. Let us see, where will his new numbers land in? As of now, only Mahesh and Pawan are into the zone of Rs.10+ Crore cheque takers.

Director Using Heroine in All Angles

Director Using Heroine in All Angles

Beauty alone cannot be the qualification for a heroine to succeed in film industry. Even without so gorgeous looks, one can survive in Tollywood with their extra talents and best example industry sources are quoting is about colors swathi. Yes, the young girl who rose to fame from small screen circuit doing some chat shows is now faring very well in movies. After 'Ashta Chemma,' she did not have any good hits to mention in specific yet producers and directors are ready to cast her.
'Swamy Rara' of Nikhil and Swathi is ready to release project directed by debutant Sudhir Varma. Being so energetic and able to speak fluently on any subject, director is known to have used the natural flair in Swathi to drive many scenes in the film. In fact, Swathi has become the face of 'Swamy Rara' from the very day of launch and on the audio release stage too, she took the burden of entertaining guests. Not just alone as heroine...Swathi's talents are tapped fully by Sudhir Varma in all the angles.

Spicy Sentiment for Sexy Heroine!

Spicy Sentiment for Sexy Heroine!

She has the material and some efficient directors are needed to explore it. We are speaking about sexy Bong babe richa gangopadhyay whose stay in Tollywood is taking many twists and turns. As a solo heroine, she never enjoyed a good hit so far. Even then, directors and heroes are safely betting on Richa due to non-availability of dates of other top babes and the affordable remuneration. If 'Mirapakay' was the decent success she has tasted long ago with Raviteja, now 'Mirchi' with Prabhas is the second hit registered by her.
Co-incidentally, both the flicks have similar title with original meaning of 'Spiciness.' In 'Mirapakay,' she was the first heroine and in 'Mirchi' also the screen time of Richa is equal or even above the Anushka who comes only in second half. Surprisingly, directors who have a plan to rope in Richa for their future projects might continue the 'Spicy' sentiment before picking their movie titles.

What Happens If NTR Joins Them?

What Happens If NTR Joins Them?

Last year, it was the turn of Mahesh Babu, Pawan Kalyan and Ramcharan to come back strongly into the Number Game of Tollywood. Inspite of their huge hits at BO, still the fight to acquire Number One Crown is wide open. Those who has the talent to show versatality by sustaining with continuous hits, he will have more chances of sitting on the top seat left empty after exit of Mega Star. Now, 2013 has proved finally lucky even for Prabhas as 'Mirchi' is passing towards the range of decent hit with highest gorss numbers in the career of Young Rebel Star.   
Amidst this kind of stiff competition between young heroes. definitely one man we are missing to see in the middle is junior ntr. Yes, director Srinu Vytla's 'Baadshah' is the film which is already generating enormopus hype and it could be the project which will bring Tarak into game. What happens, if NTR joins the bandwagon of top hits of 2013?

'Baadshah' Release in Troubles

'Baadshah' Release in Troubles

Firstly, the budget of 'baadshah' is over hiked from Rs.30+ to Rs.50+ Crores with lavish foreign trips, rich settings and lengthy schedules. Producer Bandla Ganesh was unmoved even though 'baadshah' was burdened heavily production wise. Now, the fresh Income Tax Attacks on Bandla Ganesh in last two days and Officers questioning him on the imbalance in accounts is going to have an adverse effect on the release of 'baadshah.'
In fact, 'baadshah' was actually planned to stand in Pongal race but was postponed for better reasons. If Ganesh is further screwed on advances to Ramcharan & Koratala Siva along with finances for 'Iddaru Ammayilatho' and 'baadshah,' the first film which will have to bear the brunt in release date will be that of Tarak. Few more days from here on, we might get a clear picture on whether Botsa will use his influence to save Ganesh and 'baadshah' or will stand inert?

Mahesh Going his Childhood Days!

Mahesh Going his Childhood Days!

Everybody knows Prince mahesh Babu. However, a few people know master mahesh Babu. mahesh was seen in couple of films as a child artist. He was quite active in his roles and he maintained the stardom even at that age as a child artist. Interesting feature from mahesh Babu as a child artist is that he was a good dancer. However, as a  hero, maheshis not such that  great hero comparing with many of his contemporary star heroes. 
It is now learnt that mahesh is eyeing on doing some extraordinary dance movements so that he could grab the new section of audiences, who are fond of dances in movies. If the gossips are to be believed, he will be coming up with some amazing dancing steps in his new movie in the combo of the director Sukumar. Prem Rakshit master is doing the choreography of almost all the songs in this movie. Devi Sri Prasad is scoring the music of the film. The movie is a product of 14 Reels Entertainment.

'Ongole Gitta' Crushed by Dil Raju & Co

'Ongole Gitta' Crushed by Dil Raju & Co

How bad a movie might be, at least two weeks of run at main theatre will be 101% possible outcome for an energetic hero like Ram. The situation seems to be very different for 'ongole gitta.' Of course, movie might have secured a flop talk from day one but this cannot hamper the minimum of two weeks screening in Hyderabad main theater. What we are seeing is 'ongole gitta' does not have any theater in famous center of RTC X Road, Hyderabad due to the monopoly of exhibition market in the hands of Dil Raju and Co.
Inner sources are gossping that 'ongole gitta' is distributed by Rao-San Films, comparatively a new entry into distribution business. When their chances of growing in market are high due to strong financial muscle, Rao-San can be a threat to big hands in industry anytime in the future. So, 'ongole gitta' is pushed out of many screens in no time and Rao-San is crushed with iron foot. Now, god alone knows what's the actual truth behind the scene.

Who is Producer Behind 'Gabbar Singh'?

Who is Producer Behind 'Gabbar Singh'?

Is bandla ganesh babu a Binami to any major Political personality? If Yes, then who is he? While some media reports claim Minister Botsa Satyanarayana as the hidden man behind all the investments made by Ganesh in different high budget films, some other leaders in TDP are forcing the the Kiran Kumar Reddy Government to conduct a through investigation and bring all the men behind Bandla's investments.
'As Ganesh made a film like 'Gabbar Singh' with Pawan Kalyan, there may be Chiranjeevi or his brother Pawan Kalyan also as his secret investors? Politically influential people are exerting pressure on Income Tax department to keep everything as confidential. Ganesh was not a born rich. He acted as side artist and suddenly became a producer investing Crores of Rupees. Where does this money came from? Why is Ganesh openly showing the respect and love for Botsa? Government has to act stiff,' TDP leaders demanded.

Whose on For 'Mirchi' Remake?


One more formula movie in Tollywood is raking good collections at BO. 'mirchi' is again surviving on the power of stardom and Prabhas could be the first man to enjoy this positive commercial response after a severe blow of 'Rebel.' When ever we have a god hit in Telugu...all the eyes starting from neighborhood Chennai to distant Mumbai fall upon the subject. Inner reports from film circles say that none other than Salman Khan is taking a look at the macho action of Prabhas and the script of Koratala Siva to analyse on the possibilities of remaking the same in Hindi.
There is loads of action and sweet romance of hero with two hot heroines in 'mirchi.' So, the same formula can even be a better option to suit the tastes of Tamil audience. Yet, it is to be seen who will come forward from Tamil Nadu to take in this old spice.

Director Made Trisha To Do That

Director Made Trisha To Do That


In the long span of career acting besides all top heroes, Trisha is restricted only to glamor roles. In fact, the beautiful actress has also maintained good constraints in exposing and never do we see vulgarity from her side. Away from all these, for the first time Trisha is doing some high voltage action episodes for 'rum' of MS Raju. Initially, neither Trisha nor the producer-director were ready to disclose the details of movie. As the shoot is progressing now in Dubai, Trisha is pouring the excitement on social networking describing the attempts of her daredevil stunts.
'My first action sequence ever. I am thrilled. Although the shots are risky, I have not rehearsed any stunts so far. Vijayan master is helping me on sets to ensure that I perform well. It is a refreshingly different experience. Day1-Action begins...Vijayan master on a roll.. Swerving cars twisty lanes and me at the wheel...Phew phew,' Trisha says.

That is Bellamkonda Suresh

That is Bellamkonda Suresh

More than securing the hits and flops, producer bellamkonda suresh is developing a strong brand of own by promoting his son Sai Srinivas as hero in the direction of VV Vinayak. Apart from 'Jabardast' getting ready for a release in next one to two weeks, there are three new ventures of Bellamkonda ready to gon sets in three days starting from February 13. This is a strong coincidence which also shows the excellent planning sense of Bellamkonda.
On February 13, we are to see Junior NTR and Santosh Srinivas flick 'Rabhasa' to begin the shoot. On February 14, it is Manchu Manoj and G. Nageshwar Reddy's entertainer to have the muhurat. Then on the following day of 15th, Bellamkonda's son Sai Srinivas and VV Vinayak's untitled action project will take off. In less thana week from then, 'Jabardast' will hit the screens on February 22. Great going Bellamkonda Sir...

Now, 'Mirchi' into Contorversy


Looks like, every film in Tollywood has got its own share of controversies...may it be a commercial or artistic flick. In the recent past, we have witnssed 'Cameraman Gangatho Rambabu, Denikaina Ready, A Woman in Brahmanism, Bus Stop' getting deep buried in one or the other form of troubles. Now, the fresh news is about 'Mirchi' starring prabhas and Anushka in leads under the direction of Koratala Siva is entangled in a controversy with a protest led by Arekatika Porata Samithi.
Agitators attacked the main theater of Sandhya in RTC Cross Roads protesting against the penning of words like like Katika and Kasayi by writer cum director Siva. Although Police intervened in middle to disperse the crowds, the protesters called this as an insult for their community and work. They demanded producer to immediately chop off those words before the matter gets worse. Let us see, will this issue end here or becomes a headache to makers.

Who is Excited More With 'Mirchi'?

Who is Excited More With 'Mirchi'?

While prabhas could be man to enjoy the success of 'Mirchi' to the most along with debutatnt director Koratala Siva, one more man who is feeling so happy with it is film maker SS Rajamouli. Yes, directing a star hero who is just arriving with a strong hit always gives a positive energy. When the budget of 'Baahubali' and its multi lingual nature is taken into account, Jakkanna and his team will be upbeat with prabhas coming back into his best form with a mass hit like 'Mirchi.'
In the same flow, Rajamouli has left on location hunting and is traversing through Satya Mangalam forest areas to find deadly places where action scenes will be shot on Rana and prabhas. As script works are into final stages, music director Keeravani expressed his anxiety to begin the work for 'Baahubali.' So, 'Mirchi' has really set in the good pitch for prabhas's next.

'Mirchi' Effect on Bandla Ganesh

'Mirchi' Effect on Bandla Ganesh

The hurriedness shown by producer bandla ganesh babu to reserve Koratala Siva as director for his next production venture with Ramcharan as hero seems to have invited the attention of Income Tax Officers. While, Ganesh Babu's existing venture of 'Baadshah' is shaking the trade pundits for risking almost Rs.50 Crores of budget on Junior NTR, there is also 'Iddaru Ammayilatho' of Puri Jagannath with Allu Arjun also made on a decent budget. If Rs. 80 to 85 Crores is the least spending we anticiupate from Ganesh on these two, the official announcement of Ramcharan-Koratala Siva venture yesterday has welcomed Income Tax sleuths to attack the mighty producer's house and office today.
Sources say that, Ganesh just wanted to cash upon Koratala Siva's winning fame of 'Mirchi' to add some excitement and momentum to his new project. But, this one has misfired and the effect was adverse.

Young Hero's D-Bond with Anushka

Young Hero's D-Bond with Anushka

The sturdy personalities of Daggubati Rana and anushka are getting great recognition in the film community. When both of them are seen independently, they are just awesome. If such tall and solidly built actors join hands to fill the big screen with their presence, we expect excellent and authentic chemistry to work out. Yes, we are to see Rana to getting into a Double Bond with anushka with the two projects of 'Rani Rudramadevi' and 'Baahubali.'
If one is the historic representation of Kakatiya dynasty from the view point of Gunasekhar, the other is a folk story format of unbeaten director Rajamouli. While 'Baahubali' has got the starcast fixed some time ago, now Rana is the new entry into 'Rani Rudrama Devi' playing the character of a Chalukya King. Apparently, Rana is quite engaged with pre-production training sessions getting himself ready n fit for both the roles. Great going Rana.

Dasari Appreciated Cherry?

Dasari Appreciated Cherry?


It is a common thing that whenever Dasari speaks, his tongue slips. He usually criticizes the heroes from the mega family. More particularly, he targets Ram Charan. He was the chief guest of one of the movie functions recently. He as usually made a comment on Ram Charan. Strangely, it appeared rather an appreciation than the criticism. 
As per Dasari's comment, "TELUGU CINEMA IPPUDU RECORDING DANCE LA CHUTTOO TIRUGUTHUNDI". Let us adopt this dialogue to Ram Charan. Dasari indirectly said Ram Charan does recording dance lu. And Telugu cinema is revolving around him. That means, Telugu cinema has accepted Ram Charan as the best. Finally, Dasari's advisers say before criticizing anybody, he has to check it twice whether it is a criticism or a blessing.

No Compensation Please

No Compensation Please

Telugu audience and distributors have lost the trust on maniratnam films from some time. Although, he is a wonderful technician who can make audience spellbound with special story telling formats and extraordinary technical skills, current trend in Telugu films is domainated more by entertainment zone. So, 'Kadali' is for sure a mis-fit and no wonders the movie too flopped like a disaster sinking with no trace in just one week. However, the movie faring very weak even in Tamil Nadu has come like a shocker for many.
Having got the distribution and exhibition rights of 'Kadal' for whopping prices just depending on the brand of Mani, nowthey are to see almost 70 to 80% of loss in their investments. When such distributors approached Mani for compensation, the director has put it straight that he is no way responsible as the project was sold to other big parties on MG. Now, there is no way left and distributors have to bear the brunt.

Pawan Kalyan Multi Mega Starrer Film

Pawan Kalyan Multi Mega Starrer Film

Writer turned Director Koratala Siva has a bunch of real good subjects to test on star heroes as his mettle is now proved with 'Mirchi.' Entering into big league with this commercial hit, top producers and top heroes are queued up for his dates. As reported earlier, Bandla Ganesh Babu of Parameshwara Arts has paid the advance to Siva for his second assignment and the ground work has already begun. Meanwhile, the Income Tax attacks on Ganesh Babu aren't expected actually. 
Latest we hear from our close media sources is Siva-Ganesh combination will be a pawan kalyan-Ramcharan multi starrer and is expected to go on sets by second half of 2013. Although, Ramcharan is unofficially announced as hero of this venture by media friends but the name of pawan kalyan is hidden. Film nagar sources are murmuring alot on this powerful flick while Siva having enjoyed a bit with 'Mirchi' success is on with multi mega starrer script work. Stay tuned for more updates on this because Ganesh alone can make such project to happen because of his close relationship with Pawan and Cherry.

Two Movies - One Time Agreement

Two Movies - One Time Agreement

In the long span of kamal hasan's career as an actor, director and producer, never did he face such heat as what was experienced in the case of 'Vishwaroopam.' Made on a budget of nearly Rs.100 Crores, finally it is faring well all over India and abroad ranking extra ordinary collections. However, Kamal has took enough care while negotiating with Muslim religious group heads not to see any hurdles for the sequel of 'Vishwaroopam 2.' The agreement made will be valid both for first and second parts. 
'As the movie is doing fine after many hiccups, I am happy to announce the sequel. 'Vishwaroopam 2' will be launched in next few days and will release with in this year or for the most by year end. I would ensure of no delays in release of this new film because I am preparing the ground for a while,' Kamal said. Wish that, 'Vishwaroopam 2' will stand upto the raised quality bar of 'Vishwaroopam.'

Mahesh Babu Fans Begin to Shiver

Mahesh Babu Fans Begin to Shiver

101% sure...Mahesh Babu is the best and most handsome hero of Tollywood who can mesmerize ladies and pull them to theatres even on first day of release. But, he seems to have struck with the same image from long time with no improvement in mass following. The recent release of 'Seethamma Vaakitlo Sirimalle Chettu' has further made a strong inference that Mahesh is Magent to attract Ladies and his Mania is on all-time top.
However, entry of prabhas has changed the calculation. Huge turnouts of ladies (especially college going young batches) at 'Mirchi' theatres and tickets teared off in bunches show that prabhas is all set to become a strong contender for Mahesh Babu in near future with both these heroes fighting in same audience zone. If Mahesh is killing the babes with handsome looks, the manliness of prabhas with towering height is leaving them sleepless. Let us see, who will become the actual 'Darling' to rule their hearts in future?

Prabhas Saved His Family & Friend



Prabhas Saved His Family & Friend

Before the release of 'mirchi,' there were many apprehensions on how the film would fare at BO because there was hiked budget and producers being the first timers, Fans were also worried on whether there will be a repitition of 'Rebel.' Luckily, masses seems to have liked the movie and the Fan following of Prabhas has come to light saving this project by a big way. Even now, one does not know what is actual budget of 'mirchi' but positive weekend collections are sure to keep distributors and exhibitors in profits.
'I kept on warning my close friend Vamsi and cousin Pramod not to risk anything more than my market stamina. But, they have gone for a lavish spending to give a rich look. They have released on deficit,' Prabhas said before the release. Now, 'mirchi' has saved both friend and family members of Prabhas.
