Whats wrong with Srinu Vaitla?

0
Some how or other, director Sreenu Vaitla is finding it tough to handle the cinematographers of his movie as he changed them twice within a span of 2 months for his latest movie, Badshah.
When the film’s shooting began in Italy in July, Andrew (of Kandireega and Ullasanga Utsahanga fame) was the cinematographer. However, Sreenu was not comfortable with him and dropped him after the Europe schedule and roped in cameraman Jayanan Vincent (of Gabbar Singh fame).
Jayanan had worked for the film’s Bangkok schedule and worked for few days and Vaitla dropped him too from the project and had roped in another cinematographer R D Rajasekhar into this project.
Sreenu has had problems with cinematographers in the past too. He had a big fight with his cameraman Prasad Murella during Dookudu after the completion of 70 percent of the shoot. He then replaced him with another cameraman K V Guhan. Until differences cropped up between them, Prasad Murella was Srinu Vaitla’s trusted cinematographer.

Lyrics: Kandikonda,Praveen Lakma,Chandrabose

Art: Nagendra Prasad
Editing: Gowtham raju
Cinematography: Surender reddy
Music:Chakri
Producer: Ramesh Puppala
Story-Screenplay-Direction: Ravi Kumar Chaavali
CBFC rating: ‘A’
Release date: 30-08-2012
Story: Sreemannarayana (Balakrishna) and Swapnika(parvati Melton are journalists who works for two different channels and there is always competition between them for covering Breaking news. Sreemannarayana gets engaged to his maradalu Bhanu(Isha Chawla). Sree’s father fights for the welfare of Poor farmers and raises crores of rupees as fund (Jai Kisan) to help them. The amount gets robbed and Sree is arrested in that Scam. How Sree comes out of it is what the remaining story is about.

Performances
: Balakrishna is good both in dances and performances. He delivered neat performance. Parvati Melton looked odd in the zero sized skinny shape. Isha Chawla is okay with mass appeal. Kota Srinivas rao, Jaya Prakash reddy, Supreet and Suresh suited to the villain roles. The Comedy track is weak. Art work and editing is neat. Cinematography is good. The story is single threaded and the screenplay is okay. The Direction is good in parts. The Production values are good.
Analysis: Balakrishna has come up with a mass flick in the Combination of Ravi C. Kumar who earlier delivered a hit with political drama “Samanyudu”. This time he combined his films (Victory and Samanyudu) and churned out a new one (Real estate + Scams). Balakrishna is okay as journalist but the track with Parvati Milton appeared to be forced (for the sake of masses). Isha Chawla is okay in the traditional attire and the combination scenes with Balayya, Parvati and Duvvasi Mohan were enjoyed well by the masses. Parvati Melton looked odd in many frames in that skinny look. Audience couldn’t bear her in the initial scenes/Songs with her eyes popping out.
The remaining supporting cast is okay and they have done their job well. The story line is thin; it’s a simple revenge formula with a social responsibility added to it. The Director could have inserted a couple of threads and made it big on the canvas. The movie appeared one directional after the intermission. There is no strong opposition. The action episodes are okay. The fight Sequence shot in Malaysia with Supreet is okay,
Art work and editing are okay. Cinematography is good.
Music by Chakri is below Average with weak background score. The Songs are well picturised on the screen. A Couple of songs are shot in Malaysia. The Choreographers should be appreciated for coming up with different themes and concepts. The comedy track with M.S. and Krishna Bhagwan is a not so appealing. A Good entertaining Comedy track could have helped more. Dialogues by Ghatikachalam are good.
The fate of the film solely depends on how it gets received at the B, C Centers.
Plus:Balayya, Mass Elements
Minus: comedy, unidirectional orientation in second half

Verdict:
Routine Revenge Mass Flick, can Skip it if you are not so interested

Saif Ali Khan as Gangster Charles Sobhraj

0
Saif Ali Khan who is confined to Choclate boy roles till now is trying to give realistic tinge to his career. He is going to reprise the role of notorious gangster Charles Sobhraj in a movie directed by Prawaal Raman.
Sources close to Saif tells us, Saif was not keen on playing Sobhraj per se. “Saif loved one portion of the film, namely Sobhraj’s escape from Tihar jail. It is one of grandest jailbreak sagas in the history of convicted term-servers. Only that aspect of the film has now been taken forward and the script is now completely rewritten to suit Saif’s personality.”
We hear the film now accommodates some terrific action sequences. The makers are planning to shoot the film entirely on location at the Tihar jail in Delhi.

Pawan Kalyan and NTR appreciated Sudigadu

0
Bheemaneni Srinivasa Rao’s Sudigadu created a rage with pre-release hype due to innovative publicity designs and trailers. The movie was released last week and is a super hit. According to the director, audiences are frustrated with the cliches they see in regular commercial films and he had banked on those frustration levels by playing satires on cliches. That worked well in the film which contained spoofs on several commercial movies.
But the stars reportedly have taken it sportively. Pawan Kalyan, NTR, Rajamouli and Seenu Vytla have specially appreciated the satires and wished Bheemaneni.
Bheemaneni’s last movie was Pawan Kalyan’s Annavaram.

Damodar Rajanarasimha –The Dark Horse

Many political analysts and even leaders from congress party expressed surprise when Damodar Rajanarasimha was made Dy CM post. Many felt he will be the rubber stamp with no power or authority what so ever available. However much to the surprise of all he using his telangana background quickly started showing his power stamping his authority on day to day functioning of the govt. He even started functioning not hand in hand but parallel to CM Kiran signifying his rivalry to all. He never showed his ambitions of becoming CM but many feel he is working to achieve his goal and is chanelising all his energies to fulfill his ambition soon.
He is developing close relationships and contacts with Congress High Command at center and made many visits to Delhi marketing his leadership qualities and trying to get proactive image in the eyes of High command which is not at all satisfied with the performance of CM Kiran. Unilke PCC Chief Botsa Satyanarayana and MegaStar Chiranjeevi who expressed his desire of becoming CM in media interactions, Damodar is playing his cleverly and close to his chest.
Many feel with his calm and cool nature he is fast emerging as the dark horse for the CM post in volatile and fluid political situation in Andhra Pradesh state. So one need not be surprised on any development in favor of Damodar.

TDP treated-TRS thrashed

Comgress Party’s and its Govt’s dual standards are exposed in broad day light while dealing with the protests of various political parties on increase in power tariffs and double increase in power cuts. The main opposition party TDP has been going hammer and tongs on power issue that is the burning topic in the state to derive full political mileage out of it. Its legislators even went right into CM’s office and sat on dharna and even when police entered they escaped from them. Its firebrand leader Nannapaneni Rajakumari even went up to the terrace and tried to jump from there to attract media attention. When all this happened,the police and the Govt remained mute spectators with out taking any action.
However when TRS tried to stage protests on the same issue its leaders are arrested and were not even allowed to stage a peaceful march. TRS leaders especially Harish Rao fumed at Congress Govt for its double standards and even questioned why TDP is treated in a honorable manner even when they broke law and order and why TRS is thrashed when it did not cause any problem. He even said that it showed the nexus of TDP and Cong and even its apathy towards people of telangana. He ven questioned why its minister Danam Nagender who abused top police brass and MIM leaders who assaulted police were spared.

NDTV-Sakshi poll nexus

0

Ever since NDTV started screening its opinion poll on finding the mood of the nation in the run up for next general elections in 2014, those who are getting positive findings started hailing the channel while those who are getting negative feedback started blasting the channel. While opinion polls need not be taken seriously some parties take it seriously and conduct their own internal surveys so that they can rework on their strategies.
However opposition party TDP and ruling Congress in Andhra Pradesh instead of doing the same started blasting NDTV and its chief Prannoy Roy for his survey predicting Jagan emerging fore runner in the run up. TDP even went ahead and demanded apology or else warned to go to court. These parties bone of contention is NTDV has business understanding with Jagan’s media Sakshi and even trained its employees. They allege that as such the survey can not be impartial. He even demanded Prannoy Roy should comeout in open and reveal how much he received from Jagan, whether 20crs or 30crs. Parties even alleged that Jagan is managing even local news channels funding them and helping them in their operations.
While that was TDP’s contention, Congress says Jagan is managing media with his surveys and is playing mind games sending signals that since he is sweeping polls, if his cases are diluted he will be supporting them after next elections.

NTR ‘s mind games on Balakrishna !

0

Nandamuri family has many heroes and most prominent among them are Natasimha Balakrishna and Young Tiger NTR. Both never crossed each others’ ways and both have their own fan base and have their own style. More recently however they had some misunderstanding with TDP going ahead with its bandh call on day of Young Tiger NTR’s Dammu and later coming with negative smses from Balakrishna fans asking people not to see the film as he is not Nandamuri hero.
However now it seems that both have forgotten their rivalry as NTR is following Balayya in his film career. Balakrishna recently did a special role for Collection King Mohan Babu’s son Manchu Manoj in ‘Ukodatara Uliklpadatara’. The role got immense craze for the project and the film and the film received huge openings on the day of its release. Now according to reports NTR is also enacting the same act and the buzz is he will be doing a powerful cameo in Manchu Vishnu’s ‘Denikaina Ready’.While some say it is happy for the future of TDP and Nandamuri family many feel Young Tiger NTR is not that kind of person to forget the insults meted out to him by Chandra Babu or Balakrishna.
They say that he is playing witty mind games on Balakrishna and want to prove with a powerful role in Vishnu’s film that he is better star than Natasimha Balakrishna. He is already set sights on taking Babu-Balayya duo politically with backdoor politics.

Power Star is No trend setter ?

0

Millions of mega fans and movie lovers applauded and cheered Power Star Pawan Kalyan’s dialogue as ‘Gabbar Singh’ that he will not follow any trend. He will set a new trend and will in turn be a trend setter for others to follow. This dialogue along with many others received tremendous applause in form of claps and whistles. However recent developments show that he is no trend setter but tamely follow others. Currently he his treading in the path set by Prince Mahesh Babu.

Power Star is currently turning ‘Cameraman Gangato Rambabu’ under Puri Jagannath’s direction. Expectations on the film are soaring as this is his new flick after his super success of ‘Gabbar Singh’. The film makers planned to release the film’s first look teasers on Mega Star Chiranjeevi’s birthday. However for some reason they couldn’t do it and now they are planning to release them on a grand scale on Power Star Pawan Kalyan’s birthday on September 2nd.
Many are surprised why Pawan is following Prince Mahesh blindly rather than be a trend setter. Prince Mahesh got his latest film ‘Seetamma Vakitlo Sirimalle Chettu’ firstlook and teasers on his birthday and on his father Super Star Krishna’s birthday. These acts of Pawan Kalyan are leaving his fans searching for answers when confronted by their rival fans.

King Nagarjuna to tame Simha !

0

King Nagarjuna celebrated his birthday yesterday in a grand manner. He has achieved many milestones in his distinguished career. He is the only actor in tollywood who has keen eye for creative, innovative upcoming talent and encouraged them to the core. He entertained mass and class movie lovers equally with his selection of different genre of films.
On his birthday he expressed his desire to star in a mythological film like evergreen classic ‘Mayabazar’. This came as surprise for many and they feel that Nag has set new horizons to scale on his special occasion. Many who were following his statements cite that for long he has been referring to ‘Sri Rama Rajyam’ music and songs while speaking about ‘Shirdi Sai’. This left many wonder because Keeravani tuned for his hit films ‘Annamayya’ and ‘Ramadasu’ and he could have compared ‘Shirdi Sai’ tunes with them.
His reference to Natasimha Balakrishna starrer Sri Rama Rajyam and his wish to star in mythological film like ‘Mayabazar’ with all stars show that he has decided to tame Simha. Till now he has stayed away from competing with any of the top tollywood stars and it has to be seen how successful King will be in his attempts to tame Simha. Everyone knows Simha is powerful in mythological films and movie lovers are of impression that no one can scale his heights.

Tapsee’s love for Young Tiger !

0

Pretty Punjabi Kudi Tapsee using her charm is getting lot of offers from tollywood film makers casting a magic spell on them. However she is saddened that all her films are disappearing without allowing her to stamp her class on silver screen. Now it seems she has decided enough of glamor treat and is showing her love for Tiger. Many may be misled by this title and they will be in wild dreams imagining something between this tempting beauty and Young Tiger NTR.
However there is nothing cooking between them and Tapsee is expressing her love for ‘Lady Tiger’. She is none other than yesteryear actress Vijayashanthi, who amazed all with her action packed breathtaking stunts. Many started making fun of her and were seen passing comments that she won’t be coming anywhere near Vijayashanthi in enacting expressions or stunts.
Tapsee however says that Lady Tiger Vijayashanti is her role model and she will one day become Tigress of Tollywood. It has to be seen when Tapsee’s wish will be fulfilled and how movie lovers receive Tigress Tapsee. Many wonder whether Tigress Tapsee makes people scared of her or fall in love with her. Currently she is featuring in Gundello Godari and Shadow in telugu.
