0
Cong senior most Minister in Union Cabinet, Kishore Chandra Dev fired a letter missile both against CM Kiran and PCC chief Botsa Satyanarayana to Cong President. He in his letter blasted the ways of both Botsa and Kiran. It is known that he compared Botsa as mafia and liquor don while CM Kiran inefficient and inept. However Kishore neither accepted nor denied whether he wrote any letter but he only said that he wrote a note and not letter to Sonia.

But political analysts who are watching the developments say ongoing war between CM Kiran and Union Minister Kishore Chandra Dev took an ugly turn. Kishore long time back dashed off a letter to CM Kiran and AP Govt using his special powers to stop bauxite mining in tribal regions of Visakhapatnam. In the same time Kishore differed with Jhanjhavati Project along with Thermal Project in Komarada,Vijayanagaram. He was of the opinion that bauxite mining will increase naxal problem in the area.

Though CM Kiran is against cancellation of bauxite mining, work did not start there. However another Minister Satrucharla Vijayaramaraju questioned Kishore over the issue supporting CM Kiran. Cabinet Ministers also are peeved at Kishore’s letter and are planning to put united face. Kishore’s comments on Botsa who hails from same region also sent shock waves in Cong. Now Both Kiran and Botsa may be complaining soon against he minister.

Heroes hunt is on

Heroes hunt for success is on in Tollywood. Irrespective of the result of their previous flicks, all heroes whether star or small, are already getting ready in their success hunt. Star heroes always have films in their hands no matter the result of their earlier films. The craze and demand for them among movie lovers and film makers never reduce. Politicians say peoples’ memory is short and this may be implied even to film industry. Fans memory is also very short and the moment their hero’s new film is announced they forget the result of the old film and wait eagerly for the new release.

Balakrishna,Venkatesh,Pawan Kalyan,NTR,Naga Chaitanya,Gopichand, Raviteja, Rana etc couldn’t mesmerise movie lovers with their last releases. Now they are keen to delight viewers and erase bad memories among them. Balakrishna after Simha deviated from his strengths and did ‘Ukodatara Ulikipadatara’,’Srimannarayana’ but failed to attract viewers. Similar is Venkatesh who failed in ‘Chintakayala Ravi’,’Nagavalli’,’Body Guard’. Balakrishna is making his moves carefully while Venky is starring in Shadow and Seetamma Vakitlo Sirimalle Chettu.

Nagarjuna’s son Nagachaitanya failed in Dada,Bezawada and is now trying his luck with Autonagar Surya.He is even starring in Vettai remake.even NTR couldn’t shake Box Office after Brindavanam with his expectations getting belied with Oosaravalli and Dammu. He is planning to become Badshah with his next venture. Raviteja scored string of flops and now all his hopes are pinned on Sar Ochcharu.  Gopichand is also planning to come out of flops with Jackpot. His Wanted and Mogudu bombed at box office. Rana after Leader is looking for hit with Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum. Ram is also trying to change his luck as his Endukante Premanta failed. Vishnu scored a hit and Manoj is waiting for a hit while Kalyan Ram is planning to prove everyone wrong with Om.

December good time for small films

0
Making of small films is an enigma. Taking a low budget film is one thing and getting it released is another thing. It is an ordeal to come out of the entire process successfully. Because small film makers will not find any buyers,distributors and even theaters won’t be available for screening that easily.

Film makers of high budget films with high profile star cast, top heroes book record number of theaters even before the release of their film resulting in non availability of theaters for small films. It is a different matter that top heroes films get postponed continuously for some or the other reason. Even when a low budget film is running successfully with decent collections theaters will take off the film if a top hero film is about to release. So small films, its star cast,producer,director and technicians will not get their due recognition.

However the sucess of Ee Rojullo,Oka Romantic Crime Katha,Mem Vayasuku Vachcham,Bus Stop changed the scenario a little bit with distributors getting ready to release small films. Analysts say december is the good month to release small films as the month may not see the release of star heroes films. They advocate that with careful planning if a small film is released in december, it can achieve success.

Balakrishna following Pawan Kalyan?

0
Natasimha Balakrishna till recently been busy shooting for his films but suddenly there was no news from him and many fear that he may call quits even before he completes three more films and score a century before making his dream political entry. In the mean time there are rumors going around in film nagar that Balakrishna is contemplating a powerful political entertainer much before the general elections so that it would boost his chances increasing his support base among fans and people for him and his party TDP.

As such he is keenly analysing Maratha tiger Bal Thackery who breathed last couple of days back. It came as surprise that Maharashtra state accorded him full state honors though he did not enjoy fruits of power. Entire political fraternity, business class and bollywood dignitaries paid rich tributes to him. Thousands thronged showcasing the love and affection for him. 

However many feel that Balakrishna is treating Power Star Pawan Kalyan’s way and if he is not careful then he will be burning his fingers. Pawan and Puri got inspired by MNS chief Raj Thackery who got separated from Bal Thackery and who spewed venom on Biharis and north Indians invoking maratha pride. They included this concept in their film Cameraman Gangato Rambabu but it boomeranged on them triggering a huge controversy. Balayya must be careful before he dwell on these kind of subjects.

Mohan Babu’s moral ground crumbling

0
Collection King Mohan Babu always prides himself of being strict,disciplined,principled and boasts that he has mould himself on the lines of Nataratna NTR who is renowned for his principles and punctuality. He says in all his institutions he never asks caste or creed from those who come seeking admission. He is however notorious for slapping and dragging his daughter when she tried to marry a person of her choice who happened to be from different caste.

When his darling daughter Manchu Lakshmi was cast in maverick director Ram Gopal Varma’s Dongala Mutha, buzz was that he warned Ramu with dire consequences if he shows his daughter in undignified manner. Now it seems his moral ground is fast crumbling with Manchu Lakshmi all set to do an item number in Maniratnam’s prestigious venture Kadal. Kadal features Kartik’s son Gautam and Radha’s son Tulasi. Lakshmi is playing an important role in the film.

Sources reveal that she will be seen in character with negative shades and to the top of it she will be dancing to a special song. Though Lakshmi denied doing item number already the news created sensation. Mohan Babu is already courted controversies and he may not wish to enter into another controversy so soon.

So in December Andhra Pradesh is all set to witness huge exodus from various parties.
 
Many leaders are in touch directly with YS.Jagan and if not other top leaders in YSRCP. Some also are in touch with TRS chief KCR. In a surprising development even in telangana region many leaders are favoring to join YSRCP rather than TRS. While KCR himself is planning to shift to Nalgonda constituency this time, many from Nalgonda are planning to join YSRCP. Former Minister and MLA Komati Reddy Venkatreddy, his brother Bhuvanagiri MP KOmatireddy Rajagopal Reddy and their supporters MLAs Lingayya, Balu Nayak are all set to join YSRCP.

Buzz is even Guttasukhender Reddy, Nagarkurnool MP Manda Jagannadham is also planning to leave Cong. However he is yet to decide whether it should be YSRCP or TRS. TDP’s chittorr MP Siva Prasad who praised Jagan along with other leaders will be joining YSRCP. When many contacted YSRCP leaders they made it clear that it would be better for them to take decision quickly and strengthen YSRCP rather than join in the last minute to get tickets for the next elections.

Rahul ready with AP formula

0
Congress Prince and PM in waiting Rahul Gandhi has taken serious note of Andhra Pradesh slipping out of the party’s hands. He realised that to gain power at Center and realise his dream of becoming PM, winning Andhra Pradesh is important. The state played key role in Govt formation at Center by sending more than 30 MPs on both occasion thanks to the dynamic leadership of YSR.
The death of YSR created a huge vacuum which Cong thought of filling with its own select few leaders ignoring the popularity of his son YS.Jagan. However it did not pay dividends and even after sending Jagan to jail, dissent in the party did not reduce.

Rahul set up committees and even sent his trusted observers to state but various factions and groups started fighting in front of them itself. Rahul now plans to come to the sate and guage the situation first hand rather than bank on reports. Buzz is he is ready with AP formula and sources reveal that it is similar to the one he implemented in UP. His close aides are of opinion that though it failed in UP, the same formula will work in AP and cite reasons that except for TDP ruling the stae for some time, only Cong was in power. However Rahul will be eating humble pie if he underestimates the power of Jagan.

0
MIM sent shock waves to Cong High Command at center by withdrawing its support. When high command thought that everything would be sorted out through discussions and immediately sent its leaders and even Governor Narasimhan went on record stating that MIM did not send withdrawal letter, Owaisi immediately met Governor along with his MLAs and put an end to all the speculations.

When media asked him how could he over night accuse Cong of being communal after aligning with Cong and previously with TDP, he said for 14 years he has seen both Cong and TDP and now he and his party came out of 14yrs long exile just like Lord Rama. Many are shocked as he was comparing himself to 14yrs of his association with that of exile of Lord Rama in Ramayana. Everyone knows his hatred towards hindus so it came as surprise to many.

0
Strange are the ways of Cong. Even though Cong High Command imposes its rule and selects and appoints CM in various states, party is never short of rebellions. They say internal democracy while others say Cong High Command itself encourages various groups to keep those in high places on tenterhooks so that they don’t nourish thoughts of acting independently or deviate from the wishes of high command.

As such no state in the recent past has seen such turbulence than Andhra Pradesh. CM Kiran has the blessings of Cong High Command as it specially selected him for the top post. Similar is the case of APCC chief Botsa Satyanarayana. However leave alone cabinet even small local leader is not considering Kiran as CM. They are openly commenting about the change of guard.

Now according to latest and reliable information Cong senior most Minister in Union Cabinet, Kishore Chandra Dev fired a letter missile both against CM Kiran and PCC chief Botsa Satyanarayana to Cong President. He in his letter blasted the ways of both Botsa and Kiran. It is known that he compared Botsa as mafia and liquor don while CM Kiran inefficient and inept.
