Hindi ‘Heroine’ Is Telugu Heroine’s Story!?

0
Bollywood is now on the spree of looking South, whether it is to get remake rights or inspiration for original stories. After ‘Dirty Picture’, one picture that is creating vibes in the tinsel town is Madhur Bhandarkar’s ‘Heroine’.
Unlike Silk Smitha’s life story, there are stories of some talented and glamorous Telugu heroines that are more pitiable. One among them is the story of veteran actress Kanchana. This Telugu woman is an air hostess before she turned to films in the 60s with forcing from her parents. From performance oriented de-glam roles to sexy glam kick, she played a variety of roles with versatility. Later in her career, she suddenly disappeared from the tinsel town after her own parents took her complete hard earned wealth.
She fought a legal battle for years and donated the whole property she had won in court to Tirumala before retiring to a simple life in a small apartment. Sources revealed that Mahdur’s ‘Heroine’ draws inspiration from this story and later on added few more twists by mixing the real story of another gorgeous diva, Sridevi. Ravishing actress Kareena Kapoor is playing the lead role in this movie after Aishwarya Rai opted out due to her pregnancy.

Deeksha Seth upset with Ravi Teja

0
Though it is not discussed in the open, the cine folks reveal that most of the heroines bag offers in big heroes projects only through high recommendation from the male lead. Till recently, it was being gossiped that Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja was doing all he can to promote the enchanting seductress Deeksha Seth.
However, it is now heard that Deeksha is miffed with Ravi Teja. Well, the buzz is that she has not been getting her due attention like before and sources say Ravi Teja seems to be focusing on the milky thigh beauty Taapsee. As it is, Deeksha has been trying hard to make her presence felt as she has not scored a single hit so far.
But sources close to Ravi Teja quashed all this as a rumour. They revealed that the Mass Maharaja is in his own tensions as none of his films have been working at the box office so where will he have the time to promote other heroines. Let us hope this is true and all is well between Ravi and Deeksha.

Dammu comes out as Violent Sentimental Drama

0
Jr.NTR’s much awaited movie of the season, Dammu, has hit theaters today and here goes the first day first show talk.
Punch dialogues and high range emotions are part this much hyped movie as expected by the audience. NTR’s comic timing, dialogue delivery and songs to some extent, make fans go merry. But, the film lacks an overall appeal with predictable plot and not so interesting screenplay. Director Boyapati carried the whole movie with emotion sans logic. Like NTR says in the movie about his fights, ‘Arachakam’, it is doing the same thing with normal cine audience. Many scenes remind us of Rajamouli’s Simhadri and Chatrapathi sequences but lack a full throttle impact. On the other hand fans are jubilant for this mass ‘Adbutham’ created by Junior and Boyapati. It is whistles and claps across all theatres in AP on first day.
Collections of this movie depend entirely on fans and masses, while family audience may not evince interest for this violent sentimental drama. For more analysis of ‘Dammu’, read our review!

Lakshmi Manchu! Good Producer Or Actor?

0
Say it her style of uttering Telugu dialogues or giving animated expressions, Lakshmi Prasanna Manchu has her own style in many ways. A debate is going on in Film Nagar whether she will become a good producer or an actor!
Lakshmi has that prowess to deliver stunning performance and that is witnessed through Irendri character in ‘Anaganaga O Dheerudu’. Anyways, being a celebrity’s daughter, one can get opportunities easily and if ‘hits’ fall in place, career will automatically escalates. Coming to her production ventures, these are the days any person can produce films if they have enough bucks in their pockets. They say producing a few chat shows and films is not a big deal, but distributing the movies and planning their release timing is the thing one should look out.
Moreover, Lakshmi failed in this aspect, as none of her production ventures including ‘Nenu Meeku Telusa’ and ‘Jhummandi Naadam’ failed to recover investments despite getting a decent talk. Currently she is acting in Maniratnam’s ‘Kadal’ and ‘Gundello Godari’, while the latter one is her production venture too.

Ram Charan wishes All the Best Jr NTR for Dammu!

0
Well, if you have thought that Ram Charan attending NTR’s Badshah launch was just a coincidence and then driving NTR to Charan’s home is pure formality, think again. Why because this friendship is not a formal one. Ram Charan proved that Tarak (NTR) is his best friend by wishing him luck for Dammu movie on social networking website, Twitter.
“Wishin my friends tarak and trisha.. All the best!!! I heard tarak’s performance was intense. GRT goin guys..,” Ram Charan tweeted to Nandamuri fans delight. It came in as a surprise to mega fans even. They have heard of Chiranjeevi appreciating NTR and Mahesh Babu on their successes. But this is entirely a new experience.
This is even surprising as Charan’s recent movie Racha took digs at Nandamuri heroes ‘thigh-slapping’ habit. NTR has hit his thigh hard in the movie Dammu too. Let’s not dig into that anymore and should happily welcome this change in this generation heroes. Hope Charan and NTR do a film together soon.

Lawrence taking Dil Raju’s help in selling Rebel !

0
The name of Lawrence is doing rounds in Film Nagar from a long time for his ‘paithyam’ regarding Prabhas’ upcoming movie. Despite of breaking the coconut, the film is taking more and more days for completion.
Lawrence is saying each shooting day as the last day for the shoot of ‘Rebel’, but the movie is still not completing. A unit member revealed that the movie will take at least a month more to complete. Recently, Russian fighters are roped in to film a climax fight. Lawrence took this decision after seeing ‘Racha’ fight with Chinese fighters, the source adds. With the fear of distributors running away from this big budgeted movie for the exorbitant price quoted, Lawrence is now using Dil Raju.
This mega producer of Tollywood is made to bag the rights of ‘Rebel’ for Nizam, with a belief that other distributors will blindly follow him to buy this dance master’s product. Insiders say that Dil Raju lost his credibility after selling ‘Oh My Friend’ at a hiked price and his magic won’t work for Prabhas. Anyway, we have to wait till July to know the reality of ‘Rebel’ and Lawrence.

Let us see what magic Isha and Parvathi babes do for Balayya at Box Office.

The rift between Mega family and Nandamuri families is well known but all these differences could not stop Allu Arjun watching NTR’s Dammu. That too on the second premiere in Dubai on the opening day. Allu Arjun is in Dubai to shoot songs for his latest movie, Julayi. Even though, he shot for the entire day, he made it free to watch the movie. He sat through the entire movie composed even though fans went on a rage to the high voltage scenes in the movie.
Few Telugu people there tried to take his opinion on the movie. However, he left the theater silently after the movie with out speaking to any one.

Karthika, the daughter of yester year actress Radha made her debut in Telugu with Josh. However, the movie did not help her career in any form. Finally, she managed to get a break through a dubbing movie, Rangam and bagged a chance to pair up with NTR in Dammu. However, people who watched the movie are seen commenting that she has no future in Tollywood given her over height and heavy personality. Even her facial beauty is also not too appealing. Currently, she has no offers in hand. However, she had performed decently in some good scenes she was offered.
Lets see if she manages to make a living here.

Sachin had reportedly accepted the offer and thanked Sonia Gandhi and PM Man Mohan Singh meeting them personally. Sachin had reportedly accepted the offer and President had approved his nomination.

Jr.NTR’s Dammu Movie Review – 3/5

Rating : 3/5
Movie: Dhammu
Starring: Jr NTR,Trisha,Karthika
Director: Boyapati Seenu
Producer: K.S.Rama Rao
Music: M.M.Keeravani
Release Date: 27-04-2012

Story

The story begins with a flashback about the rivalry between two families in a village. Suman (Vasi Reddy) family and Nasser family involve in killing each others family members for dominant power in village. In this regard, Vasi Reddy family members gets killed and this makes Nasser an village head for the next 25 years. Coming to the present, Rama Chandra (NTR) is adopted by Veera Durgam (Kota Srinivasa Rao) family of Vasi Reddy and is named as Vijaya Dwaja Simha. How does he win the hearts of the village people and put an end to the violence in village forms the crux.

Performances

Jr.NTR is outstanding in his role as usual by giving his cent percent. NTR has rocked as an allrounder with his fights, dialogue delivery, dances and in emotional scenes. NTR’s entry is powerful and is a treat to his fans. He is ferocious in his expressions in action episodes which makes it interesting. He has done full justice to the mass role. Boyapati elevated NTR’s image to the maximum.

Trisha looked a bit old but she was shown in a hot and sizzling avatar and she has done a decent job. Karthika is ravishing and her dances are quite impressive. But both the heroines had no scope for performance rather than showering praises on male lead. And the actresses did not make a good pair alongside NTR.

Suman is decent, Nazar and Bhanupriya fit their bill perfectly. Venu is surprisingly good; Abhinaya is impressive, Ali, Brahmanandam, Ahuti Prasad, Kota Srinivas Rao and others are adequate.

Technical Analysis

Arthur Wilson’s cinematography is on top notch with each and every frame looking quite colorful and rich. Keeravani’s music is good but the songs are badly placed with forcible situations. The Background score is the real asset for the film. Keeravani once again entertained with a good job in Re-Recording. Dialogues are penned keeping masses in the mind and yet again the political dialogues are forcibly placed. Boyapati’s direction is good while the screenplay could have been better. Ram-Lakshman’s fights are good. Choreographers failed to utilize such a tremendous dancer like NTR.

Analysis

Dammu, as the title suggests is an out and out mass entertainer. Boyapati despite coming up with a routine story, he has incorporated good commercial elements to entertain the fans to the core. Right from the introduction to the end, Dammu is totally NTR’s film and Boyapati tried to elevate his image and the Young Tiger totally rocked the screens.

On the flip side, director failed to reach the high expectations with routine story and bad screenplay. Few of the dialogues are vulgar and might keep the families away. Politics based dialogues are forcibly placed but it hints that NTR might soon step into Politics. The quite popular Ruler song has been badly place which is a disappointment.

Excessive violence, lengthy dialogues will be liked by particular sections like masses while it might keep away class audiences. The first half of Dammu is good with entertaining elements and the interval block is extremely good while the second half is high on emotional scenes and action sequences and the climax is decent.

Final Verdict

Dammu is powerful emotional entertainer and a tailor made script for NTR!!! Despite routine formulaic story, Boyapati manages to keep you glued!!!

‘Iron Leg’ Tag Worries Hot Heroines

0
In an industry where ‘success’ matters a lot, two heroines are unable to digest the tags they are branded with. Touted as ‘iron leg’ beauties, these two starlets are taking tips from seniors to get rid of that image.
Sexy sirens Tapsee and Shruti Hassan have some hyped starts to their career, but never escaped from the clutches of flops thereafter. ‘Vaastadu Na Raju’, ‘Veera’ and ‘Mogudu’ are part of Taapsee’s Tollywood journey after she got acclamations for her glamour quotient in ‘Jhummandi Naadam’. One needs no explanation regarding the fate of those flicks at BO. While there is a hit titled ‘Mr.Perfect’ amidst them, the credit went to Prabhas and Kajal’s chemistry.
Coming to Shruti Haasan, her ‘7th Sense’, ‘Oh my friend’ and latest disaster ‘3’ needs no introduction to tag her as iron leg. Both the hotties are going to face acid test with upcoming ‘Daruvu’ and ‘Gabbar Singh’. Wait for few more weeks to see whether they will become ‘golden’ legs or remain iron.

Hot Anchor debut in Tollywood !

Tollywood is one place that always looks for sexy-figures out there to rope in. This sexy anchor has currently joined the lists of some enthusiastic producers from the tinsel town.
She is Archana Vijaya, a VJ who is scorching small screen with her vociferous voice and titillating skin peeks. Archana is currently the face of Sony TV for the ongoing IPL cricket matches’ Extra Innings T20. The bong babe has heated the cine circuits with her steamy photo shoots in two piece bikinis and cleavage shows. With a wild sex appeal, she is surely waiting for the right opportunity to shine on silver screen.
Telugu industry earlier gave such chances to Bipasha Basu with ‘Takkari Donga’ and Priyanka Chopra debut chance with ‘Apuroopam’ (unreleased). Cine observers say that she is not a girl of star-heroine material but got the right curves to become a perfect package. Who will be that fortunate producer to use the erotic aura of this sexy beauty remains to be seen.

According to few folks, the other day when the shooting of ‘Gabbar Singh’ has taken place at Annapurna Studios, an interesting thing happened. An old woman came running to Pawan seeking his support for the sake of her ailing daughter who is on hospital bed. Sources revealed that Pawan gave her a cheque of 50,000 rupees immediately and called Apollo Hospital to admit the girl and treat her with his expenses. While the whole unit looking at the scene kept their faces high and proud for their hero’s mighty acts, Pawan looked quite normal. Later it is revealed that the lady is none other than ‘Paavala Syamala’, who acted as Sangeetha’s mother in the film ‘Khadgam’. This incident is an example of Pawan’s love for social service and his concern for the poor and needy.
Though the authenticity of this story could not be checked, fans are over whelmed with the mighty acts of their favorite hero in ‘real’ life.
