If there is any actress who not prefers pay packet but characters she’s playing, it is none other than Anushka Shetty. And the three variations she has shown in the same year, need a pat on the back. Firstly Anushka has gone playing a old aged woman with rustic makeup and worn out look in Baahubali.

That shocked everyone. Later in Rudramadevi movie, she sported a terrific warrior look. Like a queen on one side and like a male-prince on other side, she excelled as Rudramadevi and Rudradeva in the historical drama. Later on, she stunned everyone with her over-fat look in Size Zero.

All these variations of Anushka. shown in last 4-5 months are just stunning audiences. Which other heroine would have done such feat if not Anushka, though all these looks took 3 years for her to get into making and get going.

Talking straight, on the face, is one quality Manchu kids would have got inherited from their dad Mohan Babu. Taking this straight talk to next level, other day Vishnu spoke about a senior heroine’s bikini looks. “No matter how many present generation heroines don swimsuits, none can beat that bikini look of Ramya Krishna garu in the past. Her looks and charms are amazing.

This is a compliment for her”, said Vishnu, at the music unveiling function of his latest production venture. What if his wife Viranica sitting in the audience feels uneasy about these compliments? “My wife knows that I had a crush on Ramya Krishna garu. No worries”, Vishnu replies.

Both Ramya Krishna’s bikini looks and Vishnu’s straight forward revelations are stunning. While Ramya’s look is unbeatable, it takes much guts to talk like Vishnu at a public event.

Bruce Lee’s disastrous result was clearly visible during the pre-release business of Kona Venkat’s home production Shankarabharanam, admitted by the writer himself. Kona said that distributors and producers lost trust on him to an extent.

However, Kona quickly disassociated himself from Bruce Lee and said that Sreenu Vaitla didn’t use the scenes written by him. In a recent interview, Kona was asked about the failure of Akhil, for which he was also associated.

But Kona was quick to clarify saying that one can’t brush Akhil’s failure onto him since he was only a dialogue writer for the film and had no say in the film’s story or screenplay as they were written by another writer. The writer also said that he will have to prove himself with Shankarabharanam’s success since his reputation is in danger.

Superstar Mahesh Babu is not only admired for his acting skills on the screen, but millions of his fans also love him for the kind of spotless and a genuine person he is in his real life. In his decade-long married life, there has been no single controversy regarding Mahesh, which speaks volumes about his commitment and loyalty towards his wife Namrata and his family even after being such a huge star.

In his latest interview to a national media house, the interviewer wondered how Mahesh could remain a loyal husband to Namrata for 10 years. Mahesh’s answer was simple. He says that he does not have the energy (to have flings outside marriage). Mahesh also said, “I don’t think mature men will be not loyal to their wives. Men who are not loyal to their wives are foolish.”

“All the women think I am good looking and that’s fine, but going beyond that I don’t think so,” said Mahesh when asked about his heroines flirting with him on ad off the sets. Mahesh feels that the thoughts of not being loyal to his wife Namrata do not occur to his mind as he is married and has children, which, according to him, is the most beautiful life, apart from his commitment towards his work.

Talking about what he likes the most in Namrata, Mahesh said, “the one thing I like about her the most is that I am myself with her. I don’t have to say something to her to make her happy.” That’s speaking like a true husband and a man.
