One year and half ago. Illeana had no hits in hand. Tollywood had almost written her off. She had a string of flops to her name. Rechchipo, Saleem, Nenu Naa Rakshasi, Snehitudu, Shakti all are films that sank without trace.
Then she signed Julayi and DCM. A lease of life shall we say. She did not attend any promotional event related to the film. Illeana even absconded from the audio function of Julayi.But when she needed to work hard on her diminishing career, Illeana was least bothered.
Howeve, the actress, who is all set to debut in Bollywood with Shahid Kapoor’s Barfi, says that Hindi films will be her priority for now. “Like any debutante trying to make a mark in a new industry, I have to give it the importance it needs,” she says.

KCR not for Telangana

0
When ever telangana is referred to they invariably remember TRS and its chief KCR. Many might have fought for telangana but everyone will agree in unison that KCR is the main person to get national recognition for Telangana. However recent developments lead to suspicion that KCR himself is not for telangana. Many of his rivals on innumerous occasions alleged that KCR is not interested in the formation of Telananga but is interested in minting money by turning on and off the T-moment. Some others allege that KCR will turn Telananga into family fiefdom and will give the people of the region family rule which they detest.
During one week or so focus of National media is once again turned to Telagana and many political parties , T-MPs from Cong gave representation to PM Manmohan Singh. While meeting CPI, PM said there was no consensus on political parties regarding Telangana and the same was reiterated to T-MPs. Even TDP chief Chandra Babu is presently in Delhi, trying to gauge the mood of political parties on Telangana formation. When so much is happening one would expect KCR to be in thick of action. However he is seen no where, with even his predictions of T-Signals from Center turning false.
When media asked whether any developments can be expected on Telangana during his visit to Delhi, he calmly said that he is out to attend Parliament Session and not to discuss on Telangana. This shows that KCR is not for telangana.

‘Goan Queen’ turning ‘Flop Queen’

0
The moment one hears about Goa they will be invariably reminded of gogreous beauty Ileana. She was once hailed as the Greek Goddess of Tollywood. Many men lost their sleep over her slim waist beauty while women and even her beautiful co stars started envying her. Whether her envies worked against her or not no one can find out but this gorgeous ‘Goan Queen’ is fast turning out to be a ‘Flop Queen’.

Eversince she made her debut with ‘Devdasu’ she made men cutting across all age groups as her devdas’ and the moment ‘Pokiri’ came many became mad of her. Her magic reached unproportional heights with Jalsa and Kick. Men used to feel that they need not look for other means to get ‘Kick’ but one glance at Ileana would be sufficient.
Now it seems all those beautiful days are bygones and will be only sweet memories as after ‘Kick’ she scored a flop ‘Sixer’. Her films ‘Rechipo’, ‘Saleem’, ‘Shakti’, ‘Nenu Na Rakshasi’, ‘Snehitudu’. ‘Devudu Chesina Manushulu’ and ‘Julaayi’ disappointed all movie lovers and virtually broke the hearts of her die hard fans. Her films in other regions are also not performing well with sandalwood flick ‘Huduga Hudigi’ disappearing from the radar. She is banking on ‘Barfee’ in Bollywood. Apart from her flop films Tollywood film makers complain that she turned extremely arrogant not participating in the promos of the films.

YSR Book to ‘Book’ Cong

0
YSR soul KVP.Ramachandra Rao who is having immense clout at Cong High Command is launching a book on YSR which includes a collection of YSR’s experiences during his landmark ‘Padayatra’ which bought back Cong to power bringing back lost glory to the party. Ever Since his sad demise, there were lot of political developments with Sonia forced to send YSR son Jagan packing to jail. However Jagan gained such immense popularity that he will win hands down even if he is in jail.
Congress dual policy of claiming YSR as their leader and his son as a corrupt traitor did not find any takers. It is still in dilemma as it paid heavy price by making its leader Shankar Rao file case against Jagan. Now even when some leaders like V.Hanumantha Rao and Dharmana Prasadarao advocated to erase the memories of YSR, its high command and most of the leaders including ministers are all set to attend the launch of YSR book which will surely ‘Book’ Cong.
Buzz is PM Manmohan read the invitation with keen interest and ministers Raghuveera Reddy, Anam Ramnarayana Reddy, Vatti Vasantha Kumar, Geetha Reddy, Sabita Indira Reddy, Viswaroop, Ponnala, Danam, Ahmadulla, Manikya Varaprasad who turned YSR baiters after his death will also be present at the launch. Sunitha LakshmaReddy, DK,Aruna will also make it to the function.

VH waging a lone battle

0
Congress’ old war horse V.Hanumantha Rao more popularly known as VH or Hanmanna seems to be waging a lone battle against YSR. This self proclaimed Sonia and Rahul loyalist is not bothered even if he is insulted by them. Many of his juniors were made CM while his BC candidature was thrown in dust bin by Sonia. However he is not unduly petrubed and says strengthening of the party in state is his top priority.
He says currently the party is in dire straits in AP and one should find out YSR and Jagan’s coverts in the party who are working against it. He is calling for brainstorming session but his desperate cries is falling in deaf ears of High Command. He is making all arrangements for the meet at Hyderabad even though his repeated requests and representations with CM Kiran and APCC chief Botsa for a time bound action against Jagan’s supporters is cold shouldered.
He is advocating for removal of YSR name from the party and stoppage of chanting of his name. He says any reference to YSR will ultimately help YSRCP getting free publicity. But many feel he is waging a losing battle as even high command and many of the leaders claiming YSR and his schemes as Cong Party leader and its brainchild. It has to be seen how successful VH will be in his attempts.

Babu to become Cong CM?

0
Everyone knows TDP supremo Chandrababu Naidu is a keen strategist. Had it not been Telangana, he would have made optimum use of Cong weakness and by this time would have become CM of Andhra Pradesh. In the runup for 2014 assembly and Loksabha elections Babu struck chord by promising 100 party tickets to BCs thus igniting a discussion among various political parties. More recently he even went to Delhi to get the approval from various national parties on the issue. He is keen on reviving the dead Third Front to boost up his sagging political parties.
Babu’s maneuvors also found chord with state Cong leaders who feel that Babu would make better CM for AP as Cong has no chance of coming back to power. They in their private discussions feel that Babu won the hearts of BCs and even SC/STs in backward classes. They feel that Babu is a dynamic leader and AP will prosper under his leadership. Not only that Cong MPs Gutta Sukhender Reddy, Balaram Nayak, Komati Reddy Rajagopal Reddy met Babu in TDP office shocking all parties and political analysts.
Babu is making waves even though poll surveys predicted blank for him. Some Cong MPs feel that if TDP and Cong fight elections together, they will wipe out YSRCP of Jagan. However some say that in that case both will draw blank. However MPs are of the opinion that Babu is a fighter and even after so many set backs is fighting like a soldier with strong determination. They hail his moves of stemming the flow of BCs, SCs and STs towards YSR party.

Simha’s specials soon

0
Stars always look for new things to increase their span of acting as and when age catches up. Tollywood has four stalwarts who ruled the industry for quite some time. They are Megastar Chiranjeevi, King Nagarjuna, Victory Venkatesh and Natasimha Balakrishna. While Megastar handed over his mantle to his son Ram Charan Teja, brother Power Star Pawan Kalyan and nephew Stylish Star Allu Arjun. Even King Nagarjuna apart from doing different kinds of roles already groomed his son Naga Chaitanya and is even preparing ground for the launch of his another son Akhil. Victory Venkatesh is also trying different roles. Now comes Natasimha Balakrishna who with his spectacular stunts, daring dances and powerful dialogues shakes the silver screen and makes box offices mint money.
However with age fast catching up it seems he is looking for a changeover as he already announced his entry to politics where he is all set to continue his bitter battle with Megastar Chiranjeevi. He is also grooming his son Mokshagna for a magnificient entry on tollywood silver screen. Apart from that he is now setting a trend by starring in special roles in upcoming films. He recently starred in a sensational special role in Manchu Manoj’s ‘Ukodatara Ulikipadatara’ and is getting ready for a grand role in Nara Rohit’s upcoming venture. So one can expect many more specials from Simha.

Secret of ‘Annamayya’ success

0
Tollywood has seen many devotional flicks in recent times. Many film makers tried their best to give genex movie lovers a grandiose treat of yesteryear devotional flicks but met with little success. Film makers even stopped making mythological and devotional films for the fear of getting compared with the earlier superhits. It is a known fact that none of the genex stars can enact even one percent of yesteryear stalwarts performances. When Nandamuri Balakrishna starred in ‘Sri Ramarajyam’ many movie lovers compared it with Tollywood’s greatest hit ‘Lava Kusa’ and gave it thumbs down. Though the film bagged awards at international film fests movie lovers after watching both ‘Lavakusa’ and ‘Sriramarajyam’ felt that ‘Lavakusa’ is incomparable.
Balakrishna earlier starred in ‘Pandurangadu’ and ‘Srikrishnarjuna Vijayam’. However both failed to attract the attention of movie lovers. Even when Nagarjuna starred in ‘Ramadasu’ it did not get the attention as much as ‘Annamayya’ which got stupendous response. This made many wonder what was wrong with all these flicks. There is nothing wrong in the flicks but all the flicks are remakes of earlier hits and invariable movie lovers were forced to analyse the stars performances with yesteryear greats thus affecting the end results of the films which was not the case with ‘Annamayya’.
Till Nag and Raghavendra Rao teamed together to come with ‘Annamayya’ none of the film makers thought of making a film on Annamayya and Nag in that way saved of getting compared with earlier stalwarts. So annmayya went on to become a sensational hit. Now even Nag’s Shirdi Sai is getting compared with Vijayachander’s Sai Baba Mahatyam and is effecting the end result.

Will Taman turn the tide?

0
Since last year and the start of 2012 Taman has been creating a sensation with his musical tornadoes. However it seems he is now facing rough tides with other music directors stepping up the heat. It all started with Melody Brahma Manishama shocking all turning Mass Brahma in Mega Power Star Ram Charan Teja’s ‘Racha’. Then Devi Sri Prasad who was shockingly silent the entire previous year suddenly decided to create a tsunami and with ‘Gabbar Singh’ he showed all other music directors their place and made all his critics who started writing him off aware of his stature.He did not stop there and already scored stylish music for Stylish Star Allu Arjun’s ‘Julaayi’. Even Keeravani is not lagging behind as he struck back with ‘eega’ and is spellbounding all with his devotional tracks in ‘Shirdi Sai’.
Now focus is shifted to Taman and many are left to wonder how he will sail through his music in these rough tides. It is not that he is talented but will he be able to tackle the enormous pressure. He started off well with ‘Dookudu’ and then was on song with ‘Business Man’ and ‘Dookudu’. Thaman is all set to strike back once again with big ventures like Nayak, Balupu, Gauravam, Badshah.
