Seetayya’s war cry

0

TDP founder NTR’s son Harikrishna for long tried to take over the party, thus liberating it from the iron clutches of Chandrababu. However he failed in his mission and sometime back he even left the party to start his own Ana Telugudesam. But his move did not find support from people and he had to bite dust and patch up with Babu, who sent him to Rajya Saba as MP.Seetayya as he is lovingly known as started waiting for the opportunity to strike at Babu and the mistrust between them is there for everyone to see. Harikrishna along with his son NTR is trying to wrest control over the party, but Chandra Babu roped in his brother Balakrishna to counter him.

Naidu gradually stopped giving importance to him and more recently rumors flew in that Harikrishna is sick and suffering from serious illness. Much to the shock of Harikrishna, Balakrishna visited his constituency. A hurt Harikrishna said he is not sick but hale and healthy. When asked who were behind the rumors, he said some vested interests are trying to divide wedge between him, Balakrishna and Naidu.This shows that all is not well for Hari in the party and the mistrust between Babu and him reached a point of no return. It is an irony that Harikrishna who instigated all to revolt against his father in support of Naidu is out of favor with him.

“I really had to live my character. From the tiniest details like the kind of kumkum and alta, to my mannerisms, it has been an exciting journey.

Also, the controversy that Darshanji and I got embroiled in in our personal lives made the team grow stronger as a family, ensuring we worked harder.” The actress added.
She also added that “My equation with Darshanji hasn’t changed. We remain friends, just as we used to be. He’s helped me a lot, especially for this film, since the dialogues were in old Kannada. We’ve worked on three films together and I do respect him a lot,” she states.

Revolutinary director R.Narayanamurthy planned to open the eyes of the Govt and rulers with his film ‘Peoples War’ highlighting the fight of farmers against Sompet power plant. The film is up for release tomorrow. It is a well known fact that the film is inspired by real life incidents which highlights the peoples struggle and tribulations due to blind and adamant Govt. He in many of his interviews said that the film is peoples fight against the policies of Govt and will open the eyes of the Govt.
It seems Govt got the message as censor board started waging a war on ‘Peoples War’. They asked Murthy not to mention ‘sompet’ in his film. He was ultimately forced to change the name to ‘Someswarapeta’. Similarly he was forced to insert disclaimer at the start and end of the film stating that “This film is a work of fiction and does not refer to real life characters or incidents. Any resemblance is a co-incidence.”. To the top of it Censor Board awarded U/A certificate for the film. The censor board has also told Narayana Murty that there should not be any references to GO Nos. 1107 and 1108, concerning the Sompeta project.Powerless Narayanamurthy had to agree to all the suggestions Censor Board to get his film released.

0
Many films in Tollywood may not win awards or attract the attention of other regions. But there are many tollywood films which proved inspiration to B-Town and their top stars reviving the career of many. Bollywood which previously look down south films as ‘sambar-avakaya’ films started appreciating the creativity and are competing with each other to bag the remake rights of successful films. TOp to stay in the list is Salman Khan who after his Dabang success is starring in ‘Kick’. This is the remake of Mass Maharaja Raviteja’s ‘Kick’. Sallu Miya regained his form with Prince Mahesh Babu’s ‘Pokiri’ which he remade it as ‘Wanted’.
Though Amir did not remake a telugu film, his ‘Ghajani’ is a remake of Surya starrer. Even action hero Akshay Kumar who till now used to star in malayalee remakes like ‘Hera Feri’, ‘Bhool Bhulaya’, ‘Bhagam Bhag’, ‘Hey Baby’ and “Katta Meeta’, scored a stunning hit with ‘Rowdy Rathore’ a remake of tollywood superhit ‘Vikramarkudu’ starring Ravi Teja.

Srikanth becomes Mega Brother

0
Everyone knows family hero Srikanth is the die hard fan of Mega Star Chiranjeevi. He fulfilled his dream of acting with Chiru, by making his presence felt when he shared the screen presence with Megastar in ‘Shankar Dada Zindabad’ and also in its sequel. Now much to the delight of Srikanth none other than Power Star Pawan Kalyan announced in full public gaze that Srikanth is one of the mega brothers.
The incident happened during the spectacular launch of Srikanth starrer ‘Devaraya’ audio launch. Recollecting his association with Srikanth, Power Star said Srikanth shares extremely good relationship with Megastar Chiranjeevi and Chiru always refers to Srikanth as his brother during his conversations with him. Pawan said Srikanth is like mega family member. This will be surely honey to Srikanth’s ears, as any person would be delighted to be associated in some form or the other with Mega Family.
Srikanth said Pawan used to be secluded and calm even in mega functions while he used to land at the venue and celebrate the occasion with full fervor and frenzy. He said he never expected and had his own doubts on Pawan gracing his film ‘Devaraya’ audio launch as Pawan did not even celebrate ‘Gabbar Singh’ success. However he delighted all making the function a grand one with his presence.

‘Damarukam’ on mission ‘Eega’

0
Tollywood Jakkana creation ‘Eega’ might have signed off on a high note from silver screen across the world but everyone knew the lasting impression it created on movie lovers. Still people and kids rave about ‘Eega’ and many have already made up their mind to watch the film’s 3D version as and when it hits the screens.
In the mean time King Nag is coming with powerful ‘Damarukam’ in hand along with Anushka and he says his mission is to erase ‘Eega’ memories from the minds of people. Speaking at the audio launch he said that ‘Damarukam’ will erase ‘Eega’ from the memories of movie lovers. He said ‘Damarukam’ special effects will be thousand times more better and extravagant than ‘Eega’ which set the trend for others to follow.
One wonder why Nag with his ‘Damarukam’ is targeting ‘Eega’. Many feel since he spoke about Damarukam on a high note it wont be the fault of movie lovers if they start dissecting each and every scene of Damarukam with that of Eega before passing their judgement. Expectations will increase enormously with may or may not work in its favor. It has to be seen whether ‘Damarukam’ will be successful on its mission ‘Eega’.

Dharmana puts CM in a bind

0
Minister Dharmana Prasada Rao who tendered his resignation to CM Kiran following inclusion of his name in CBI charge sheet in VANPIC case is putting Kiran in a mind. Kiran did not accept the resignation for the fear that if he accepts Dharmana’s resignation then he should follow the same rule in case of other ministers who are facing some allegations and court proceedings. However Dharmana, seeking solace on moral high grounds stopped attending cabinet meetings. Ghulam Nabi Azad, the state incharge tried to solve the issue asking him to attend cabinet meets as CM Kiran did not accept his resignation.
Here Dharmana showed his keen political acumen and demanded Ghulam Nabi Azad, as statement from CM Kiran refusing his resignation on the whole issue so that he can start discharging his duties. But CM Kiran feels that since he did not accept his resignation, it shows that he believes that Dharmana did not commit any mistake. Kiran is of the opinion that if he issues a statement that Dharmana did not make any mistake, and in future if CBI moves ahead to arrest him, then it will be a severe jolt to the Govt which he can not afford to at present.
In the midst of all this CM Kiran decided to send notice to Dharmana seeking his explanation on the CBI letter which sought CM’s approval to proceed against him. If he sends the note, this will be first in the history of entire India, that a minister has been asked to explain. Normally explanations are sought from Govt officials by sending notices to them.

Janareddy jumbling T-Box !

0
Congress leaders will try some thing or the other to gain recognition with Cong High Command and be in media limelight. This time Panchayathi Raj Minister Jana Reddy is jumbling the T-Box in the hope of solving the T-Puzzle much to the delight of Madame Sonia. Noticing that TDP is getting ready to come with a fresh letter on Telangana and TRS and its chief getting ready to reignite T-fire, Jana Reddy decided to come up with his own love letter on Telangana.
Cong T representatives are of the opinion that seemandhra representatives pressurising High Command is weakening their status in telangana region and feel that their unity should be an example for T representatives. So Jana decided to take the initiative and is planning to fly to Delhi after Assembly session.
They are planning to send a letter to Sonia explaining ground realities and this time Jana himself took the initiative to get the signatures of various Ministers. He even asked T Forum convener Baswaraj Sarayya to get signatures of some more ministers. While he is successful in getting Dy CM Damodar Rajanarasimha’s signature,Hyderabad ministers Mukesh Gowd and Danam Nagender are not keen on signing the letter. It seems now Jana is back to square one and one has to wait and see what results Jana’s T jumble will get.

Chiru forgets Pule ?

0
Mega Star Chiranjeevi who during the grand launch of his Praja Rajyam included stalwarts like Jyothi Rao Pule and promised social justice to all sections of people, later conveniently forgot him as it did not catapult him to CM chair. Now he is enjoying the comforts of Rajya Sabha MP seat. He is busy attending dissent meets.
Govt already planned to install Jyothi Rao Pule’s statue but till now even after Pule’s anniversary in April, it did not materialise. Cong which promised to give seats to BCs , couldn’t get Pule’s statue installed. BCs are up in arms and are furious with the acts of the Govt. Till now only V.Hanumanth Rao’s felicitation of Pule, collecting funds from various sections of people, is the only saving grace.
Many feel that Chiru instead of delivering speeches or speak like novice at each and every meet, can get his act together and help in installation of statue of Pule, which will be tribute to the great leader who strove for the benefit of the poor in his entire lifetime. It has to be seen whether Chiru has enough time to pay attention to all these trivial issues. Chiru is busy trying to get one or the other post of prominence for him.

Telangana ‘Vidroham’ or ‘Vimochanam’

0
Come September 17th, entire region of telangana will be burning with the debate whether the day should be celebrated as ‘Vimochanam’ or protested as ‘Vidroham’. This is the same day on 1948, when Indian Army on the orders of Iron Man of India, Sardar Patel marched to liberate the Nizam state from the clutches of Nizam who vowed his allegiance to Pakistan and whose army created a web of terror in the minds of people.
However some telangana people including TRS chief KCR, says that Nizam developed the state and razakars were only few which he could have tackled had he been given some time. They say Indian army annexed the Nizam state and so on this day protests should be held across the state branding the day as ‘Vidroha Dinam’ as from that day onwards telangana people lost their freedom.
But many feel that the atrocities committed by Nizam and his army ably supported by private armies called razakars, can not be pardoned or washed off by people like KCR. Many say that the day should be celebrated as ‘Vimochana dinam’ as Indian army liberated the region from the clutches of Nizam’s heinous rule thus presenting them freedom. They ask for the Govt to celebrate it officially just like Maharashtra and Karnataka Govts are doing. It has to be seen what will be the stand of Govt on the whole issue.

Milky Beauty’s ‘Love Signals’ to Prince

0

Milky beauty Tamanna after casting her mesmerizing spell on mega family heroes in tollywood seems to be eying Prince charming Mahesh Babu. Tamanna is on high luring Stylish Star Allu Arjun in ‘Badrinath’ before seducing Mega Power Star Ram Charan Teja in ‘Racha’. She is currently romancing Power Star Pawan Kalyan in ‘Cameraman Gangato Rambabu’ . In the process even Megastar Chiranjeevi expressed her desire to romance her if he gets a chance. Such was her beauty that Bollywood action hero Ajay Devgn also expressed his wish to romance her and duly cast her in the remake of ‘Himmatwala’ setting the tone for her debut in Bollywood.
There were reports that Tammu rejected Prince Mahesh Babu’s film to sign her next film with Bollywooc Chocolate Boy Ranbit Kapoor. This they say after director Salim Akthar contemplated of slapping a legal case on the actor. However Tammu says “I am not doing any other Hindi film other than Himmatwala (with Ajay Devgn). I haven’t turned down Mahesh Babu’s film. When such rumours appear in the media, I don’t take them seriously. I guess rumours are a part and parcel of actors’ lives now.”. It has to be seen how Prince Mahesh receive Tammu’s new found love signals.

CBN at cross roads

0
It seems Chandra Babu Naidu and his party TDP is at present at cross roads and any decision will have severe impact on its future. CBN who ruled the state for record 9 years is also creating a record of sorts by becoming the longest serving opposition leader in the state. If future decisions on poll alliances, promises and actions to achieve are not taken in careful consultations then TDP may totally be wiped out of the political map of the state.
The problem with CBN is none of his promises and actions are instilling confidence in his party leaders, cadres leave alone general public. Many times he came up with brilliant ideas like fighting on Babli or BC reservation issue and many other things. He is even promising heaven in the hands of people but they are not convinced as he lost his credibility due to his flipflops on various issues most importantly on free power to farmers and on telangana issue.
CBN plans to come out with clear cut ideas and decisions in the next few days in the run up to elections. He is planning to write another letter on Telangana so that there wont be any ambiguity on his part. However his hands are tied and though he grandly announced that he will be on 117 day pada yatra, many wonder how he will tackle cross fires on his party from various quarters. Unless until he earns the faith and confidence of people, all his decisions will not provide any respite for him or his party.

Mega Star’s disappointment on rare defeats

0

Chiranjeevi after making his debut became a phenomenon with in no time with his daring, dashing and dynamic heroism on silver screen. His breathtaking dances, powerful dialogues and stunning stunts became talk of the town and no one was able to match his performances. He became supreme hero and super star enjoying immense mass following.
However even the invincible mega star tasted rare defeats at the hands of his contemporaries and a tinge of disappointment could be felt in his interactions with media. While he lavished praises on King Nagarjuna on his performance as ‘Shirdi Sai’, Mega Star very well know he did not have the kind of devotional hits which King Nag enjoys in his career. Nag has ‘Annamayya’ and ‘Sri Ramadasu’ and now ‘Shirdi Sai’ which any actor would love to trade for parting all their success name and fame along with it.
Similar is the case with Balakrishna who featured in mythological films like ‘Sri Krishnarjuna Vijayam’, ‘Pandurangadu’, ‘Aditya 369’, ‘Bhairava Dweepam’ and crowned all this with mega venture ‘Sri Rama Rajyam’. Chiru will be surely disappointed in his heart of hearts that why film makers did not come with creative and mythological roles to him. He can only draw solace in his ‘siva tandavam’ dance with Meenakshi Seshadri in Apadbandhavudu and Lord Shiva role in Arjun starrer ‘Sri Manjunatha’.

Kodandaram-Up in Arms

0
Prof Kodandaram is like last action hero who used to launch full length battle cry at the mere signal of TRS chief KCR. Though many feel that KCR is the chief architect of KCR, without the wherewithal of Kodandaram who has powerful students of OU campus backing him, KCR couldn’t have achieved the enormous success he achieved. However after tasting success, KCR started ignoring Kodandaram and now he is at his wits end as to what to do, running from pillar to post in Delhi knocking the doors of all and sundry.
Kodandaram however evolved a keen strategy and agenda and after participating in program organized by Kishan Reddy of BJP in Delhi, he is back in action. He announced that he will be starting all out agitation from 30th of this month if something doesn’t come out on telangana. Knowing Kodandaram and his extremist student wing, anything can be expected of him and he already warned that for all untoward incidents starting from 30th, Govt will be held responsible.
By all means Kondandaram is Up in Arms and has already given a ferocious battle cry. It has to be seen how Cong Govt at center and state will deal with the situation and what will be the reaction of KCR and his party TRS on the whole issue.

Jagapathy Babu takes on Vikram

0
It requires guts to take on versatile star Vikram who also won national award for his acting in ‘Siva Putrudu’. When all stayed away from locking horns with him, family hero Jagapathy Babu chose to take on Chiyan Vikram that too in his own film. The incident happened at the audio launch of bilingual film ‘Siva Tandavam’. The film celebrated its audio in a grand manner yesterday at Taj Deccan, Hyderabad in the presence of top tollywood celebrities.
While speaking on the occasion Vikram said when he compared his role with that of Jagapathy Babu he fell in love with the role enacted by Jagapathy Babu. He said Babu is the real hero and he is proud to have worked and shared the screen presence with him. He showered praises on the film makers for the film. Jagapathy Babu later speaking at the function said he don’t care about his role and bother about the roles others are playing in the film. This is virtually direct reference to Vikram. He went on to say duration and length of the role doesn’t matter for him and what ever comes in his way, he will do wholeheartedly putting maximum effort. This stunned all and one couldn’t get the chance to guage the feelings of Vikram. The film directed by AL.Vijay has the music of GV.Prakash Kumar.
