When Will Cherry Sing?

Only, a few people know that mega power star ram chran is a good singer. In his childhood, Cherry learnt classical music for four years. In fact, he wanted to show his singing talent in his debut movie itself. However, as per the suggestions of his near and dear, he dropped the idea of singing in the very first movie. Later, he said he would sing occasionally in his forthcoming projects. However, he could not make it. "Even though having no knowledge on singing, Chiranjeevi and Pawan Kalyan sing occasionally in their movies. Even his colleague, Jr.NTR tested his luck as a singer in his previous movies. Then, why can't Cherry try it for once?", question some of his close associates. We have to wait and see whether he will sing in his future projects or not. Currently, Ram Charan is doing three projects and they are 'Cherry'( tentative) in the combo of V.V.Vinayak, 'Evadu' in the combo of Vamsi Pydipally and bollywood movie 'Zanjeer'. Among these movies, Vinayak's movie is gearing up for Pongal, 2012 release. Cute actress Kajal Aggarwal is pairing up with him. Universal Media is the production house.

NTR to do The Remake of 'Saagara Sangamam'?

Long back, it was heard that Young Tiger ntr would do a movie in the direction of Kalatapaswi K.Viswanadh and the movie would give importance to classical dance. Well, having heard that gossip, many of ntr's followers welcomed that move by the ntr. Thereafter, there were no indications of ntr doing movie in the combo of K.Viswanadh. And now, again the news of the combo of ntr and K.Viswanadh was out and it was revealed by none other the great director K.Viswanadh himself.  Talking to the newsmen in one of his recent interviews, K.Viswanadh revealed that ntr had approached him recently asked him to do the remake of great actor Kamal Haasan's 'Sagara Sangamam'. However, K.Viswanadh said that it was risky doing the remake of this master piece. However, the duo had not kept their proposal on the shelves but the negotiations are still going on. Hope, the project will be worked out.

Charan has no time for Daddy!!

There is a big hurdle to cross, if Chiranjeevi Fans all over the World are to hear any happy news on the milestone 150th project. Every time when Mega Star appears before public for a Political or Personal meeting, the first question from media and Fans would be about the status of 150th film. Meanwhile, we hear of ramcharan cannot give the prestigious chance of producing this venture to any other makers and he wants to take the credit for his own. Now days, both father and son have become busy with their own professions. While Chiranjeevi is a Rajya Sabha with a set of prescribed duties for uplifting the position of Congress in State and Centre, ramcharan is also occupied doing three projects at once. This made the story and script discussions of 150th project almost to a halt. So, one can expect good news only when Cherry finds some time for his dad.

How is MG Different From Other Film's?

Mega Power Star ram charan's industry hit movie 'Magadheera' completed three years of its release on 31st July, 2012. The movie created innumerable records which are unbreakable even today. Among these records, the movie achieved a special record and surely, it is said that the rarest of the rare records. Going  by the details, as of now, Telugu industry has seen a couple of industry hits in its 81 years of history. Among these industry hits, no industry hit has crossed the previous industry hit with double the share margin except 'Magadheera'. In 2006, Prince Mahesh Babu's 'Pokiri' turned out to be an industry hit and collected a share of Rs.40 crores. 'Magadheera' collected a share of Rs.78 crores in Telugu version alone excluding audio and satellite rigthts. If Tamil and Malayalam versions are taken into consideration, the movie collected a total share of Rs.86+ crores excluding audio and satellite rights. If any movie in future wishes to level this record( double the share of 'Magadheera') the movie has to collect a share of Rs.180 crores. Will it be possible? Lets wait and watch.

What is Their Fate without Balayya?

The verdict is clear. Audiences are enjoying the characterization of balakrishna in ‘Uu Kodathara Ulikki Padathara’ while the major drawback is agreed to be the dull first half. In particular, first half an hour to forty minutes is treated as a non-stop torture where Manoj has gone over board showing his creative enthusiasm. For the moment, inner sources say collections are not that disappointing because except ‘Eega’ there is no big competitor in market. A better first half could have taken ‘UKUP’ to further high range of success. However, Manchu Lakshmi Prasanna also did her part efficiently leaving the audience spell bound in climax episode. For a perfect picture on whether ‘UKUP’ will land into safe commercial zone or end in deficits for Manchu family will be known only when new movies will hit screens this Thursday and Friday.

Shriya begs for 'Tamanna' Luck

Sexy babes shriya Saran and Tamanna have one feature in common for now and that is their association with director Sekhar Kammula. Before the happening of ‘Happy Days,’ industry and outsiders although know about Tamanna but this one particular film ignited the spark to milk beauty’s career in Kollywood. Of course, now she is ruling Tollywood too bagging very big chances besides top heroes. Tammu faithfully agrees of Sekhar being the ‘Lucky Hand’ to give much needed kick for her career. shriya Saran in ‘Langa Voni’ for ‘Life is Beautiful’ of Sekhar surely resembles Tammu of ‘Happy Days.’ However, the difference is Tamanna was a fresher and ready for exploitation in those days while shriya is into her last stages of career in these days. Yet, Sekhar has the magical touch of portraying his heroines in most beautiful way and shriya is hoping for a bit of luck with ‘Life is Beautiful’ to boost her market.

No to Chiranjeevi - Yes to Rajinikanth

Who can forget the words of rajamouli uttered during the release time promotion of ‘Eega’? He expressed inability in dealing with star heroes and is quite happy directing smaller ones like Nani. Later on, rajamouli even said of providing a story or script for Chiranjeevi’s 150th film but have no intentions or sufficient strength to direct the same. In no time, Jakkanna re-molded his words showing enough concern on directing Rajinikanth, if Super Star gives him a call. Success of ‘Naan Ee’ could have made the un-defeated director to spill some beans in order to attract Tamil audience and let us see what his statement was. ‘Rajini Sir appreciating Naan Ee is the most significant of all accolades. I feel like having won the most priceless award for the hard work. In fact, Rajini Sir is my childhood hero and is one whom I like the most. It is my dream to direct him. It is enough for me that he orders for a script and I don’t even need formal talks about taking the project forward.’ Let us see, when will Super Star give a call for rajamouli?

Rajamouli Came To Know The Fact !!

EEGA, an experimental movie by Rajamouli got an excellent reviews by Critics as well as superb openings at Box-office. After watching this movie trade pundits expressed their views that it might cross the collections of recent release GABBAR SINGH &  thought that No hero require to Rajamouli to score a Block buster. But things had changed now.

Earlier of EEGA release many of the critics thought that its a one time watchable & it may not get repeat audience and some didn’t agreed, praised Rajamouli as Telugu Nalon or some thing. But the audience of Telugu cinema was rejected and they need Hero to show directors story.

Coming to collections, First and second week was fully packed and coming to third week collections dropped enormously. And with this reason Rajamouli & his team are fighting against Piracy. But piracy is not main criteria, if the film is super hit no body want to watch it in piracy. Magadheera, dhookudu, Gabbarsingh are the examples. So Rajamouli tricks are not working here as Telugu audience needs Hero to see repeatedly …….

Charan opens up about quitting Twitter

Ram Charan quitting Twitter bandwagon all of a sudden after his marriage has become a big talk in Industry. Speculations have been made that the reason could be the intolerable comments from followers about Upasana. But the actor has few more reasons behind taking such tough decision.

In his recent interview, Charan revealed that he choose to stay away from Twitter as its invading his privacy and causing unnecessary problems. Sometimes followers force him to discuss issues that he don't wish to and they even misunderstand when he personally calls a hero and wish him on his birthday instead of positing a tweet by commenting he had differences with that hero and so he didn't wish him. To avoid such mess he opt to quit.

Few of his tweets have stirred controversy. His tweet on veteran director Dasari 'So called great directors ones are confined to only speeches and lectures on stage now-a-days. Its sad they can't move anything but their mouth' and the one after Jagan's arrest 'Finally Govt has proved its capability' had become a sensation and also drawn flak. Celebrities become a soft target ever since social media have been on the rise. It's not Charan alone, but many others including NTR, Sunil and few others has disbanded from Twitter in the past as it's invading their peace of mind.

Record Price for CGR in East Godavari

Power Star Pawan Kalyan's highly anticipated movie 'cameraman gangatho rambabu' is on sets now. It is learnt that the movie's rights for East Godavari area have been sold out to R.R.Film Distributors. 'Although, the exact price is not known, it can easily be more than Rs.2.50 crores', say the sources. This is said to be an all time record price for this area is concerned.  Milky beauty Tamannah is doing the role of 'Cameraman Ganga' in this movie and is pairing up with Pawan Kalyan.

The movie is gearing up for release on 18th October with record number of prints.

'Julaayi' failed with 'Pakado'

The much anticipated song of ‘Pakado Pakado’ directed by Trivikram Srinivas for the promotion of ‘Julayi’ isn’t getting the needed recognition. This is for first time director has gone for an experimental mode of promotional song shot lavishly on Allu Arjun and Devi Sri Prasad. Although the song was of rap style, audience expected too much of dance and energy from Bunny and DSP but unluckily it was simple and stylishly shot.  For the moment, ‘julaayi’ makers are screening the song not only in TVs but also on big screens where ‘UKUP’ and ‘Onamalu’ are currently running. Reports say, ‘julaayi’ might be a powerful entertainer but more than ‘Pakado’ it’s the first trailer which is more liked by public. Let us see, how will be the final product on August 9th.

In order to give a end to all these rumors, Pawan’s CgR first look will be released on 22nd August as birthday gift to chiranjeevi from Pawan Kalyan.

Sunny Leone Classes For Telugu Kids

Right now the fear of Sunny Leone is disturbing many families of Tollywood as parents are locked up in embarrassing moments due to her. They are said to be giving classes to their kids about this 'porn star'.

With the sexy romantic thriller 'Jism 2' of this red-hot porn star nearing a release, our TV channels are airing special shows to cash on Sunny's glamour. Even theatres in AP also started playing trailers of this movie. As media is continuously saying 'porn star', Telugu kids are now getting doubts that what does this mean.

'They know Mega star, Super star and rocking star. But this porn-star is a new term to them and they are forcing us to tell what does that mean', says a parent. He adds that there is no difference between Sunny Leone's skin-show and other top starlets of B-town, and there is no need to frequently describe her as 'porn star'.

However some parents are giving sensible answer to their kids to divert their minds. They are saying that 'porn star' means a beautiful foreign actress. Looks like, Sunny Leone became a syllabus for Telugu kids now. Who should be blamed?

Finally, Ileana justified her Rs.4 Cr...!

Slender beauty ileana has recently owned a swanky villa worth Rs.4 Crores in Houston, USA. In fact, the hot babe wasn’t able to get some leisure time to spend in the villa and her investment was going waste. The only reason for this was her continuous shooting schedules for three projects viz. ‘Devudu Chesina Manushulu, Julaayi and Barfee.’ Working for 9 months at a stretch without taking a break, ileana has finally got a break and she reached the US of America on July 4 to spend a very big holiday till this month end. ‘I even forgot my usual 10 days Christmas holiday occupied with work. Now, I am looking for a break and spending time with mother and sisters since they are my stress-busters,’ ileana said. Except her dad, ileana is chilling at home enjoying the home made food. She might be back in Hyderabad only by the time Allu Arjun is in to promote ‘Julaayi.’

Gopichand: One Movie - Two Openings

Aggressive hero gopichand and heroine Nayanathara’s combo flick ‘Jaganmohan IPS’ in the direction of Bhoopathy Pandiyan has already got the muhurat clap and completed the first schedule. Komara Venkatesh and Thandra Ramesh planned this as a bi-lingual action entertainer. Mean while story took a twist with Bhoopathy Pandiyan sent back to Chennai and shooting halted in between shelving the entire project.  Now, producers have ordered for a second press release for the same film and director Srivaas of ‘Lakshyam’ fame is roped in. ‘We liked the police story narrated by Srivaas. Currently the script work is on. We ill begin the schedule with Thaman’s music sittings in August and that will be the muhurat of opening. In a single non-stop schedule, total shooting will be wrapped up,’ said producers today. Looks like, the film is one based on a cop subject but there will be two opening muhurats.

Manchu Family's Big Mistake!!

The Tollywood circuit has many noted families and they are quite popular with their surnames. The likes of Nandamuri, Akkineni, Daggubati, Allu, Konidela tend to stand in the first list. Among them is also another family which has emerged strongly over the past few years. This is the Manchu family.

However, despite coming up with their best budgets and technology the Manchu family's home banner Manchu Entertainments has not been able to score a single success. The analysts say the biggest mistake here is their choice of directors. Apparently, each time the storyline and concept has been wonderful but they have failed in picking the right directors.

That is the key reason why movies like 'Mr Nookayya' and the latest release 'Uu Kodathara Ulikki Padathara' have failed to get the desired response. Now, all eyes are on their new venture 'Gundello Godari' which looks promising. Let us wish this project clicks and gives them the much needed success. 

Chiru Will Become CM Soon?

Though megastar Chiranjeevi had merged his erstwhile Praja Rajyam Party with the Congress party long ago, there seems to be no integration hearts of the leaders of both the parties yet.

While Chiranjeevi himself is trying to maintain his own group within the Congress party, his group leaders are making statements that are embarrassing for the party. Take for instance endowments minister C Ramachandraiah, an MLC from the Chiranjeevi camp. On many an occasion, Ramachandraiah expressed displeasure over the injustice meted out to Chiranjeevi group in the Congress party.

On Saturday, Ramachandraiah made a sensational statement saying the people were fed up with the present leadership in the Congress party and they desperately wanted Chiranjeevi to become the Chief Minister of the state.

“The day is not far off when Chiranjeevi will become the Chief Minister. He would provide a different leadership to the state,” he said.

Mahesh And Charan Don't Have It

Many thought that this year both Mahesh and Charan will come with two movies. Both planned with the same target and started their films. With ‘Businessman’ arriving in January Mahesh fans were sure that one more film is compulsory from Mahesh this year. ‘Seetamma Vaakitlo Sirimalle Chettu’ is arriving on September 28th was the announcement.

But shooting is yet to be completed. Industry sources say the film will not be ready for October too. If October passes then good season for reason is only Sankranthi according to producer Dil Raju. Being a multi-starrer and that too a family treat, he is reportedly feeling that January is the right time.

Similarly, Charan who planned to wrap up Vinayak’s movie and release it by Dussehra could not spare time. Working in three films simultaneously, Charan is unable to cater full time to any of them. So this movie has been removed from October race and is now looking at Sankranthi, as per sources. End result is, both Mahesh and Charan will not have one more movie this year and they have completed 2012 with one hit each.

Radhakrishna Is 'Samaikya Ugravaadi'!

The Telangana protagonists are fretting and fuming at the report carried by Andhra Jyothy Telugu daily on Saturday quoting union home ministry sources that the UPA government has decided against granting separate Telangana state and the same is being conveyed to the brief note to be submitted to new President Pranab Mukherjee.

The Telangana Advocates JAC stormed the office of Andha Jyothy in Jubilee Hills in the afternoon and raised slogans against its managing director V Radhakrishna.

The advocates took objection to the report which said the Centre would indicate to the President that the granting of separate Telangana state would lead to a lot of troubles geographically and also kick up water disputes between the regions; and hence, it would like to follow the sixth recommendation of the Justice Srikrishna Committee.

The JAC argued that the home ministry would not send any independent reports to the President, but would only brief about the issues without any recommendations.

“The report was part of the conspiracy hatched by Radhakrishna to sabotage the Telangana movement. He is a Samaikya Ugravaadi” (Integration terrorist),” the JAC said and demanded an unconditional apology from him.

Chiru ignoring his biz partner!

It has been nearly two and a half months since noted industrialist Nimmagadda Prasad has been arrested in the alleged illegal assets case of YSR Congress party president Y S Jaganmohan Reddy, being probe into by the Central Bureau of Investigation.

His arrest has disturbed the entire industrial climate in the state. Several VIPs and well-wishers called on him at the jail and extended their solidarity with him. Even top film stars like Akkineni Nagarjua, Mohan Babu and Vishnu called on Nimmagadda in the Chanchalguda jail. In fact, Nagarjuna went to jail for the second time on Friday, because he is a partner to Nimmagadda, while Mohan Babu described his arrest as the most unfortunate development in the industrial sector.

However, one person who did not visit Chanchalguda jail to call on Nimmagadda was megastar-turned-Congress MP Chiranjeevi. Everybody knows Chiranjeevi was a business partner of Nimmagadda Prasad in Maa TV. Though there were reports that Chiranjeevi had withdrawn from Maa TV network, he is said to be still having a minor stake in the network. If not as a Congress leader, Chiranjeevi should have called on Nimmagadda at a personal level. May be he thought he might have to face Jaganmohan Reddy in the jail.

Prabhas Career in Danger?

Young Rebel Star prabhas's cine career reminds us a snail's walk. His 'Rebel' movie has been on the floors for a long while for innumerable reasons. The director Lawrence is said to have the main culprit of the delay of the release of the movie. Next comes, the music director Thaman, who left the project in the middle of the shoot of the movie. Replacement of heroines is said to be the other reason for the movie's delay. At last, the movie is releasing in the month of September.  Meanwhile, prabhas's fans are getting embarrassed with the future project of prabhas in the combo of the director Rajamouli. Like his previous movies, if Rajamouli takes one or two years duration for the canning of the film, The project will be out only in the year, 2014. Even then, if the movie breaks the records of industry hit 'Magadheera', they may heave a sigh of relief. But again they are getting worried as Rajamouli has no industry hits so far except 'Magadheera'. The best option is prabhas should do one or two projects simultaneously along with Rajamouli's project so that he will always keep in touch with his fans and cine audiences

Can Puri get That Rare Record with 'CGR'?

As far as the present  generation directors are concerned, puri jagannadh and S.S.Rajamouli are the only directors to have given one industry hit movie each in their careers. puri jagannadh gave his industry hit movie  'Pokiri' in the year, 2006  Prince Mahesh Babu and Ileana were the star cast of that film. Later, 'Pokiri's full run records were broken by S.S.Rajamouli's 'Magadheera'. Mega Power Star Ram Charan and Kajal Aggarwal were the leading star cast of that movie. There after, no movie of tollywood has broken the records of 'Magadheera'. puri jagannadh has given the hits like 'Deshamuduru', 'Chirutha' and 'Businessman' after his 'Pokiri' while Rajamouli has given hits like 'Maryada Ramanna' and 'Eega'. However, none of the above movies crossed previous industry hit's records.  Looks like, puri jagannadh has rather better chance to break the all time records of tollywood, as he is currently directing Power Star Pawan Kalyan for 'Cameraman Gangatho Rambabu'. It is a known thing that Pawan Kalyan's 'Gabbar Singh' has almost come nearer to 'Magadheera' records and his craze is currently at its peaks among the trade circles. At this juncture, if 'CGR' gets hit talk, it is going to be a cake walk for him to cross all the records of tollywood through CGR. Subsequently, Puri might become the one and only director of tollywood to have given two industry hits among the present day directors. Will it be happened? Let's wait and watch.

UKUP's Shocking Songs

Balakrishna and Manchu Manoj starrer 'uu kodathara ulikki padathara' was released on 27th July and received mixed responses from the audiences. Most of the audiences are said to have shocked with the picturization of two songs in the movie and the details of those songs are as follows. PRATHEE KSHANAM NARAKAME: This was the first song of the movie. This song comes when Manoj wants to disclose his background to scare some of the comedians in the movie. Many violent scenes, bloodshed and horrible shots were canned in this song. 'Children will definitely, fear of watching this song', say the audiences. ABBABBA ABBABBA: If the above song was filled with full of violence, this song was shot in an erotic way. As many as six girls dance with him along with Deeksha Seth. Manoj appears in a tribal get up in this song and though they look natural, his gestures seemed to be awkward in this song

Mega Family Dominating Tollywood-2012

Celebrity families of Telugu industry are trying quite hard to entertain their fans with some stunning movies. But most of them are tumbling at Box Office due to lack of proper hits and due to poor number of releases. One family is giving a full ticket value for their fans this year.

First half of 2012 is finished already and second half is waiting for some more big-masala movies. Other than Mega family heroes, no other celebrity gangs of Tollywood are ready to give treat for the whole year. Already we have seen 'Racha' and 'Gabbar Singh' from power-heroes and they are ready with few more flicks for the rest of 2012.

Allu Arjun is coming shortly with 'Julayi' and this will be followed by Pawan's 'Rambabu'. Later, there is a possibility of Sai Dharam Tej's 'Rey' and Allu Sirish is gearing up with 'Gowravam'. On a whole, there will be six movies from mega heroes to enthral their mega fans, which is a sort of record for a celebrity-family.

Coming to Nandamuri heroes, only two films 'Adhinayakudu' and 'Dammu' are released so far, and there will be two more only. From Akkinneni family, there will be two movies from Nag and one from Naga Chaitanya probably. Daggubati and Manchu families are negligible from the race.

It is only Nandamuri family who are having as numbers of heroes as Mega family, but most of them are on the verge of extinction. We have to see which family of Tollywood can put up a fight with Mega-heroes now!

Balayya - Pawan - Nayantara - Tamanna

One might wonder how these four names are linked up as a heading. Yes, there is something common between these four persons now, other than the fact that they are star heroes and star heroines of Tollywood.

Nandamuri hero Balayya, Powerstar Pawan Kalyan, milky beauty Tamanna and ravishing seductress Nayantara are all playing a character related to media in their upcoming films.

We all know that Pawan and Tamanna are playing the roles related to TV channel in their upcoming 'Cameraman Gangatho Rambabu'. While Tamanna is a reporter, Pawan is said to be a secret reporter. Likewise, Balayya is also playing the role of journalist in his upcoming 'Srimannarayana'. After return to acting from a long break, Nayan is doing the role of documentary film maker in Krish's 'Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum'. Indirectly, her role is also a part of media.

All the time Puri Jagan is known for portraying media in a negative tone and this time he is sketching them as heroes. Balayya's film and Nayan's role are anyways media centric. Let us see how this filmy people will excel in the role of media-folks in the coming days

Puri Brings back 'Cowboy' Pawan

Long back, Power Star pawan kalyan was seen as 'Cowboy' in one of the songs from his super hit movie 'Badri'. The lyrics of this song goes on, 'Ye Chikitha'. Puri Jagannadh made his debut through this movie as a director. Later, pawan kalyan was again seen in cowboy get up in the song 'Neevalle..neevalle' from 'Annavaram' movie. Both these get ups indicate pawan kalyan's interest on cowboy get up. It is now heard that pawan kalyan will again be seen in cowboy get up for the movie 'Cameraman Gangatho Rambabu'. Currently, this song is being shot between pawan kalyan and Tamannah by the director Puri Jagannadh.  'Cameraman Gangatho Rambabu' is touted to be a message oriented satirical entertainer. Senior music director Manisharma is scoring the music of this film. The movie is produced by D.V.V.Danayya under Universal Media. The movie will hit the screens on 18th October.

Rajamouli on mission to make Prabhas a 'King'

At the time when all the Top Heroes in the Industry are more than happy to work with him, Rajamouli is on a mission to complete his prior commitments before accepting new offers. After the super success of Eega, this ace filmmaker has announced his next project with Prabhas putting an end to speculations. Will this film be another commercial potboiler in the lines of Chatrapathi or Will Rajamouli try to explore a new angle in Prabhas are the questions raised by the movie lovers. At last, Jakanna has given a hint on the subject of his upcoming film with Prabhas.

In one of his recent interviews, Rajamouli revealed his desire to make a film on our Kings with Prabhas in the lead. Saying that we have many captivating stories regarding our kings, he expressed his intention to show them in a new light. Although the script of the film is yet to be finalized, sources close to the director say the subject will be on the Kakateeya dynasty.

A macho hero in a role of a king is like icing on the cake. What would the fans of an actor want other than seeing their matinee idol in a special role. So, the admirers of Young Rebel Star can a expect a full meals from this celluloid wonder to be directed by Sure-shot Success Rajamouli!

Mega Demand in Maharashtra

Telugu Films have crossed the National boundaries faring extra ordinary at Box Office in overseas markets. However, here is a special request from one of our regular readers in Maharashtra explaining about the pity situation of Telugu Mega Fans in chandrapur district where Telugu films aren’t releasing these days. Though, commercials behind is unknown but the reader has provided enough clues on how movies all the way from ‘Gudumba Shankar’ till ‘Magadheera’ performed at Maharashtra BO. ‘After ‘Magadheera,’ there are no releases of Telugu films in chandrapur district. Chiranjeevi, Ramcharan, Pawan Kalyan have special craze and other heroes too possessed good market here. Our request to Telugu cinema Producers is to plan their new  releases in chandrapur district, Pune and some more areas of Mumbai too. We are crying here to enjoy Telugu movies on big screen. Please entertain us,’ writes Sai Charan Devarakonda from chandrapur district.

Mega Family on a National Mission

The only way to expand profits in film business is to gain as much as possible or the maximum market available. Telugu cinema some time ago was constrained only to Andhra Pradesh and few centers of remaining neighborhood states. But now, we are seeing a gigantic growth in film trade with Digital Prints crossing the oceans. In the same way, this is also the right time for regional cinema to expand the roots into National arena. Rightly, Mega family seems to be taking the lead in this standing as a front runner. Yes, we know that Chiranjeevi was one of the first heroes not only to raise the commercial bar of Telugu films but also to step into Bollywood doing hit projects like ‘Pratibandh’ and ‘Aaj Ka Goondaraj.’ Now, Pawan is traveling in the same line and is all set to rock Mumbai with a high budget flick under the production house of Konda Krishnam Raju. On the other side, ramcharan is already in Mumbai with ‘Zanjeer’ and of course proven his market in Tamil. Perhaps, Allu Arjun is considered a top star in Malayalam as his movies easily cross 1 Crore business. The newly coming Allu Sirish has also jointly targeted the Kolly and Tolly BO with ‘Gauravam.’ Do we require any more proofs to convince the expanding roots of Mega Family? They are on a mission to prove ‘Telugodi’ Stamina at higher levels and let us wish that they will be victorious. Coincidentally, Chiru's trials of entry into Central Cabinet can also be regarded as a part of this mission

Comedy on 'Dookudu' Collections

Director Bheemaneni Srinivas Rao has taken a route of targeting direct satires on all the so called records of Telugu films. Particularly, the kind of controversy created by the opening collections of ‘Dookudu’ is still remembered by all. ‘Sudigaadu’ starring Allari Naresh and Monal Gajjar in lead role has got the first trailer released and it’s a stomach breaking experience which is worth watch-able. Trailer starts off with ridiculing of ‘Dookudu’ collections intended to expose the truth. Even the kind of Telugu font (same as ‘Dookudu’) used by Bheemaneni to read their ‘Sudigaadu’ collection as Rs.350 Crores on first day is quite appreciable. Then ‘Sudigaadu’ trailer goes at a whirlwind speed attacking all the young star heroes. Looks like, they are having a safe hit film in their hands and Allari Naresh is of course always a minimum guaranteed hero.

Manchu Lakshmi takes up '30 crores' Challenge

Manchu family is eagerly waiting for this Friday to rise as their ambitious project Uu Kodathara Ulikki Padathara is releasing on that day. This is the biggest film ever made from Mohanbabu's banner. As per the producer, Manchu Lakshmi, the budget of UKUP is Rs 23,86,24,000. This doesn't include the prints and publicity cost. Also the interest for the finances is not added. The given amount is the cost of production of UKUP which includes post production expenses and remunerations.

This film was planned as a medium budget venture at the start. But with Balakrishna's inclusion they got the courage to double the estimated budget and are expecting to earn good profits from it. UKUP will have to make at least Rs. 30 crores to breakeven, which means it should score the biggest hit in entire history of 'Manchu' movies.

Lakshmi Manchu is confident that audiences would lap this film up as it falls in the league of Chandramukhi and Arundathi. They believe that Balakrishna could make the difference and make it a huge hit. As per the unit members, Balakrishna's role in this film would be like Rajanikanth's in Pedarayudu. His screen time is around 20 minutes and the impact of his character would be there throughout the second half.

If Jagan Becomes CM, What About Us?

Celebrity face of Telangana Rashtra Samithi has expressed a doubt regarding their position if at all Jagan become CM in 2014. TRS MP Vijayashanti has held a press meet today to condemn Vijayamma's dharna in Sircilla.

'If Jagan becomes CM, what about us? Our position in T-area will be miserable if YSR-C comes to power. That party is full of rowdies and gundas', Vijayashanti accused. The dynamic lady MP expressed fear that Telangana will be ruled by Rayalseema factionists if Jagan comes to power. In view of some the fights that happened today at Sircilla between Jagan party's cadres and TRS supporting students, Vijayashanti said this. 'To kill the T-cause, CM Kiran has joined hands with the Jagan during prez poll and this is their second step', she adds. The MP demanded YSR-C to declare their stand on Telangana.

TRS is fighting from the last 10 years and there is no development from their side to the region despite of huge fights and damages to property. Let TRS declare their stand about welfare of people first!

'Shivering Started In All Political Parties'

With TDP Supreme getting a breather in Supreme Court on the illegal assets petition filed by Vijayamma, he has started attacking his opponents to a maximum. Chandrababu has once again fired his best weapon, through which he wants to pin down everyone in 2014 general elections.

'With our BC declaration, shivering started in all political parties. None of the parties in the state has done such huge favor to the backward communities till date', stated Naidu. He advised all his opponents to stop criticizing Telugudesam and to come up with their plan for BCs. 'The declaration given by us is 100% possible and we will show all these blabbering opponents how we will bring our words to life', he stressed. As he got good opportunity, he has once again repeated all those quid-pro-quo accusations and failure of Congress in giving current.

Like a newly married guy wandering around his wife, Naidu and TDP are doing rounds around 'BC declaration'. Though there are many other issues in the state, it looks only this particular strategy is a safe bet for Cycle-walas. 

Mega Confusion: 150th Film Or Cabinet Ministry?

With state politics taking many interesting turns every day, Megastar Chiranjeevi is still sitting silent without any public appearances. Insiders revealed that he is struck at cross roads regarding his future.

Mega producer Allu Aravind revealed to some media persons the other day that Chiru is waiting for the Cabinet Minister post to start work on his 150th film. With Pranab's exit from cabinet, surely there will be a shuffle in the posts and Chiru is waiting eagerly. So, Megastar is quite ready for his 150th film but only waiting for the Minister post to start it.Seems like there is no connection between these two, but it is true.

They say that Chiru is struck with the fear that Congress might reject him off the post saying that he damaged the image of party by acting in films again. If there is no such feeling, then why such a huge delays to start that most awaited flick?

One would really wonder what Chiru will get with that Cabinet Minister post that lasts less than a couple of years. Maybe, only Allu Aravind can tell the importance of that post than his 150th movie!

Manoj to Steal the show in UKUP?

Given the kind of its visuals and the performances shown in the trailers of 'Uu Kodathaaraa..Ulikki Padathaaraa..', it is understood that Manchu manoj is surely going to steal the show. His terror striking performance, sadistic looks and athletic body appear he will create some sort of magic in the movie. Also much interest on the project is being generated to watch the movie at the earliest. Even though Balakrishna is doing a cameo with some of his trade mark powerful dialogues,manoj seems to have surpassed him as well through his interesting performance. Well, we need to see how well the movie has come out and we need to wait for five more days to know the result.  Deeksha Seth is doing opposite to manoj in this movie. Bobo Shashi is composer of the music. A set worth of Rs.6.5 crores has been erected to shoot major part of the film. Sekhar Raja  directed this movie on the banner Manchu Entertainments owned by Lakshmi Manchu. The movie is hitting the screens on 27th of this month.

Telugudesam Copies Chiru's Mega Idea

Finally, Congress leaders has got a point to attack Naidu about this 100 seats allocation to BCs. They say that this idea is in fact formulated by Megastar Chiru long back and implemented successfully.

'Chiru has allotted 104 seats to BCs during 2009 election on behalf of Prajarajyam. He is the only person in AP state to do such a big favour to BC voters', says Endowments minister C Ramachandraiah. He felt that Naidu has now copied this mega-idea and is promoting that as if it is his own plan. 'It is really a big joke to hear TDP people demanding all other parties to give 100 seats to BCs. We have already done that long back', the minister stressed. He added that Naidu is doing these gimmicks to divert the attention of people from T-issue.

Whatever it is, granting 100 seats for BCs means not a sure shot win for TDP and Chiru's case is best example for that. We have to see how this copy idea works for Telgudesam then.

Chiru's Gunman kidnaps Businessman !

Rajya Sabha member Chiranjeevi's gunman Sitaramulu was arrested for allegedly kidnapping a businessman to extort hidden treasure from him. Along with him, three more cops of AP Special Police were taken into custody on charges of abducting and harassment.

On July 11, the accused cops and another six members abducted the victim (Koneru Krishna) from his house in Pitlam of Nizamabad district and brought him to Hyderabad. The accused came to know from a person that Krishna has found a hidden treasure in Pitlam forest and he hid the huge quantity of gold at a secret place.

After abducting Krishna, they harassed him for the details of the place where the valuables had been stored. Unable to bear the torture, Krishna told them that the gold was stored in his house itself. The accused took him back to his residence thinking that their plan has finally paid off, but they couldn't find anything there. Angered cops began harassing him again and the neighbors came to the rescue of Krishna after hearing his painful shouts.

Sitaramulu is a member of Chiranjeevi's security wing. All the accused cops were suspended and sent to judicial custody for remand.

Charan Splits Mega Fans Into Two Groups

Everyone is getting these doubts due to Young Megastar's continuous acts to woo both the senior fans of his Dad and the young generation that admires him. Is he trying to create split like Seniors and Juniors is the talk of town now.

Ramcharan still believes the idea that remixes of his dad's popular chart-busters will help him achieve maximum success. He has already remade songs like 'Bangaru Kodipetta' and 'Vaana Vaana'  from Chiru's mega hits Gharana Mogudu and Gangleader. He is now gearing up to remix 'Subalekha Raasukunna...' song from Kondaveeti Donga for his upcoming film.

Apparently, 40+ aged Mega fans will connect to these remixes well, as the younger generation doesn't know the exact impact of those old hits in the 80's. While Seniors compare the new song with old song and enjoy, Juniors feel it more directly and this is what we call splitting of Mega fans. Hardcore Mega fans are saying that they don't feel any such difference, as they are enjoying all the acts taken up by Charan with heart but not logic.

Sources revealed that this remix song will be filmed in Kolkata on Charan and Kajal for VV Vinayak's movie.  The original song is composed by maestro Ilairaja and this remix will be done by young music sensation Thaman.
