She will be romancing Sai Dharam Tej is his upcoming project which will be directed by BVS Ravi. And in the other project, she will be romancing Kalyan Ram in his next to be directed by Puri Jagannadh.

If she manages to bag hit with either of these films, then she will definitely become a hot property in Telugu film industry. The actress is all set to make her Bollywood debut in a biggie. She has been roped in by actress Anushka Sharma for her production house’s next, Phillauri.

The makers of Phillauri are looking for a Punjabi actress. They are very impressed with Mehreen and immediately got her on board as they felt she is perfect fit for the role. If the film works out at the box office, she will get a pan-India image. But the immediate challenge will be adjusting dates for all this films.

Megastar Chiranjeevi okayed the remake of Tamil blockbuster, Kaththi for the prestigious 150th film. Vinayak who delivered a disaster with Akhil – The Power of Jua will be directing this film. The project was however put on hold after a story controversy cropped up.

Chiranjeevi wants to begin the project only after the controversy is resolved. On the other side, Chiranjeevi had started preparation for the role. It is emerging that the actor got himself enrolled in Zumba Classes so as to get his lost flexibility back as well as lose weight.

Zumba is a new age exercise regimen that combines Aerobics and Dance which aides flexibility as well as promote weight loss. The project may go on floors very soon as Chiranjeevi started preparation.

Kaththi starring Vijay and directed by AR Murugadoss was a blockbuster back then. But a writer from AP complained that it is his story which he narrated to the actor some time ago. But the project did not materialize for some reason.

Former Congress MP Undavalli Arun Kumar filed a Public Interest Litigation (PIL) in Hyderabad High Court questioning the Central Government on what grounds it honoured Media Baron Ramoji Rao with Padma Vibhushan award.

If High Court accepts the PIL of Undavalli, Union Home Secretary, Chief Secretaries of Telugu States and Ramoji Rao will soon receive Notices seeking their explanation on the charge. Few weeks back, Undavalli convened a press conference at Somajiguda press club to announce his action plan.

He raised the point, ‘How can Centre felicitate Ramoji Rao with Padma Vibhushan award when he was yet to receive clean chit in Margadarsi chit fund & other cases filed against him?’. Undavalli waged a war against Ramoji Rao during former Chief Minister late YS Rajasekhar Reddy’s tenure.

He moved court against the Eenadu Group Chairman for allegedly cheating people in the disguise of Margadarsi Chit Fund. With Mr.Rao receiving Padma honour, Undavalli is yet again appearing in media quite often.

As soon as the news of Baahubali 2 release date broke out, the word spread like wild-fire. While movie lovers and Baahubali fans across the globe are celebrating it, only a section of people apparently expressed mixed reaction.

The section in question is none other than die-hard fans of Prabhas. Yes, you heard it right. Prabhas fans are said to be upset with maverick director SS Rajamouli for slating the film’s release for as late as April 2017 which is more than a year from now.

As per the initial planning the second part of the film (Baahubali: The Conclusion) was expected to see the light of the day in Summer 2016.With Baahubali: The Beginning saw several release dates and caused delay, this in turn affected the sequel.

The announcement certainly has poured water on the hopes of many Prabhas fans who were eagerly waiting to see their favourite matinee idol in Baahubali followed by a mass film while Mirchi being the last. This is not all.

Also, many are raising doubt whether Prabhas would tie the knot before the release of Baahubali 2 or will he wait till the release of Baahubali 2. If he waits till April 2017, this would also put them off as they’ve been waiting to see Prabhas as pellikoduku (bridegroom).

And there’s another section of Baahubali fans who can’t wait up to 2017 to know the answer for pertinent question ‘Why Kattappa killed Baahubali?’

Telugu native Tamil hero, Vishal’s Kathakali was first in Sankranthi race and was later pushed to the Republic day weekend. The audio release event of the film was also held but the movie got postponed in the last minute.

The makers have cited some Censor issue for the postponement back then. But then there is no news about the movie release since then. Now the makers are planning to release the movie on March 18th. As of now, the date is free and will offer competition free breathing space for Vishal if every thing goes as per plan. The movie is a flop in Tamil Nadu.

The makers will very soon begin the promotions in Telugu. The movie is being directed by Pandiaraj in Vishal’s home production. The director claims the movie is based on a real life event. Catherine Tresa and Regina Cassandra are playing the female leads in this movie which has music composed by Hiphop Tamizha.
