She and Jiva have said to lent their voice for the Tamil version of the movie, Neethane En Ponvasantham.

Pawan Kalyan lends his voice again
The much-awaited film of the year, ‘Gabbar Singh’, is full of special elements. One such thing is a song sung by Power Star Pawan Kalyan. It may be recalled that Pawan has sung for a couple of his films in the past. But as of late, he is not interested in any other department except acting.
However, after much thought Pawan agreed to lend his voice for ‘Gabbar Singh’. Music composer Devi Sri Prasad, who has made many actors sing in his films, is the man behind this mission. DSP convinced the actor by saying that fans would expect something special from this particular song which comes at a crucial juncture in the film, So if he could lend his voice then it will be an ideal treat for his admirers.

Chaitu and Samantha Share ‘M’ Desires
Generally if desires of two persons match, then there is a tendency for them to move closer. Something like that is happening with our young birds in the tinsel town now.
Naga Chaitanya and Samantha are coming up with their next venture ‘Autonagar Surya’ very soon. Already, we’ve seen their perfect chemistry in ‘Ye Maya Chesave’ and one can expect them to take it to next level with Autonagar Surya. Interestingly, both the young actors share ‘M-Desire’ that is making them glue to each other much. Till date, both these stars haven’t done a perfect mass-masala role in their careers. While Chaitu tried it in ‘Bejawada’, Samantha limited mass characterization to some songs only.
It is heard that in Autonagar Surya, both the young stars are doing an out and out mass role as lower middle class people of Vijayawada slums. With a passion for mass in hearts, their chemistry has come out rocking, reveals a unit member. Let us see how they enthrall people with this film.
Final Twist: Anuskha Joins ANR!
Though a lot was heard between these hot babes and King Nag, surprising they share a close rapport with ANR and Missus Nag. Rubbishing all the rumors in tinsel town, our curvaceous Arabian horse joined the big team back.
Legendary actor Akkineni Nageswara Rao’s Platinum Jubilee Celebrations in acting career has become stage for this hot heroine’s rejoining. Anushka, graced in a simple salwar as usual, sparkled on stage bonding with all the family members of Akkineni. Though she avoided going close with Nag, she spent most of her time cuckooing in the ears of Amala Akkineni.
Even on-stage, ANR has given a special hug to this ravishing siren very publicly. Sources say that though there is a tiff with Nag, Anushka don’t want to strain her bonding with Amala and ANR. Who knows, she may get booked for Nag’s upcoming movie after finishing ‘Shirdi Sai’ and everything goes well then!
Raviteja comes face to face with NTR
Few days ago there was talk that Raviteja’s Daruvu movie release has been postponed indefinitely due to heavy competition. But the makers of Daruvu released a press statement that their film is going to release on time without fail. As per the producer Daruvu will be released on May 4th. That means it will be released exactly a week after NTR’s Dammu is released.
Dammu is going for an all out release with more than thousand theaters on its first day. Although it is releasing so big, it is impossible to collect all its costs in one week. So Dammu will need another week without much competition to enter the safe zone. But Raviteja is not going to take the back step as of now.
With so many biggies lined up for release in May and June, Daruvu makers feel that May 4th is the ideal date to release their film. This clash can affect Dammu as well as Daruvu. Let’s see if D and D come to an agreement and maintain good gap to the benefit of each other.
Allu Sirish takes away Chaitanya’s ‘Gouravam’
Well, it’s official! One more hero is arriving from mega camp. Allu Aravind’s younger son Sirish has decided to take up acting career. He made this official on his personal blog and admitted that he is undergoing training as an actor. Sirish decided to make debut in Tamil at the start. But the latest news says that he will be making debut with a bilingual.
If the sources are to be believed, Sirish will be making debut with Gouravam movie directed by Radha Mohan. This film was actually planned with Naga Chaitanya in Annapurna banner. But as per the grapevine, Radha Mohan was upset with few things and moved away from the project. Incidentally Allu Aravind heard the same subject and is reportedly impressed.
If everything goes well, Sirish will be making debut in Telugu and Tamil with Gouravam film. Earlier Sirish planned to remake Chaitanya’s 100% Love in Tamil, but he has replaced Chaitanya in Gouravam. Official announcement regarding this is awaited though.
Racha blockbuster @ Ram Charan’s dedication
After doing record business over the first weekend, Racha continued to impress on Monday too. The collections on the fifth day are as good as third day, which indicates that Racha is going super strong at the box office. At this rate Racha will break first week record (AP and India) of Businessman by a very good margin.
Luckily, for Racha there is no major release in this week. Adhinayakudu was postponed to 19th of April and therefore Racha will still remain the first choice film for audience even in its second week. Added to that tenth class exams are over now and students and their families will throng to the theaters to catch the latest blockbuster.
Racha is being benefitted by superb timing of release, which would have not been possible if Ram Charan didn’t take the risk. Charan was injured during the last phase of Racha shooting and the film’s release looked almost impossible at one point. But Charan has completed Singareni Undi song by taking painkillers. His dedication ensured the film’s release on time and Racha attained blockbuster status with the help of the long weekend and summer holidays.

Actress charges Rs 36 lakhs per 5 minutes
Bollywood beauty Priyanka Chopra was paid Rs 36 lakhs to turn spiritual for 5 minute. If you can’t believe this, read the story below.
“This life which was given by the God is very beautiful, as I have two hands, I can walk, I can talk with you and I can hear you. God has given to me everything because he thinks I’m his child. Coming to here and sitting on this stage reminded me of this words after a long time. For that, I thank you,” said Priyanka, while speaking at the event.
Hearing Priyanka’s words if you come to a conclusion that the hot beauty turned spiritual, then you are mistaken. The organisers have paid for her every word and for her every minute stay at the event. For this event, Priyanka came straight away from the airport and she was accompanied by her father. She pocketed Rs 36 lakhs for a 5 minute appearance at the event.
However, Piggy Chops avoided the media after sensing that they might question about she getting pricey. In the past, we have seen many celebs charging money for their presence at events, weddings and other promotional activities. But, Priyanka has taken this to a next level by charging the staggering amount per 5 minutes. Who hates having money?
‘Chiru-ness Vs Charan’ In Long Run!
While magnum opus ‘Magadheera’ unveiled the striking performance him, ‘Racha’ proved that he is a stupendous extension to his father, megastar Chiranjeevi. But, can this ‘Chiru-ness’ help him win accolades in the coming future is the question.
Chiranjeevi’s mannerisms are the ones that bowled out fans after his spectacular dances and fights. Likewise, Charan also started to adopt those mannerisms in ‘Racha’. However, he hasn’t tried anything new, but simply carbon copied his dad’s work from movies like ‘Gangleader’ and ‘Gharanamogudu’. In delivering punch dialogues, walking crazily and while talking with villains, it’s Chiru we feel rather Charan. Critics are saying that in the long run ‘Chiru-ness’ may not help him grow in terms of a star-hero as people are bored with such ‘mass’ gestures already.
But, fans are denying this, saying ‘We’ll be happy if Charan continues as an extension to Megastar. He has already proved his mettle as an actor. So, let him now do his dad’s stuff to enthrall us’. As long as story supports the film, any characterization suits these star-kids well for the kind of fan-base they have.
Biggest weak link of Gabbar Singh
Pawan Kalyan’s Gabbar Singh is raising expectations with even a ten second teaser. Recently released teaser about the audio release has clicked with Power fans. Pawan’s dance and his expressions are instantly liked by his fans and followers. However there is one weak link that is worrying them. That is none other than the heroine of Gabbar Singh, Shruti Haasan.
Two shots of Shruti were shown in the teaser and she looked very odd in the village belle attire. Besides, her makeup is awkward in those scenes. Pawan fans are hoping for the best and praying that Shruti looks better on the screen. As far as fans are concerned, they are hoping Gabbar Singh to be a blockbuster and they don’t want any weak link to mar the film’s success range.
Shruti has been termed as the ‘iron leg lady’ as all her films she starred in were ended up as flops. Therefore Pawan fans are a little bit worried about her ‘luck’ factor to affect the fate of Gabbar Singh. Nowadays heroines are playing big role in making a film super hit. Hence, Shruti should be on the list of Gabbar Singh’s highlights but not among the drawbacks.
Luck favoured me : Akkineni Nageshwara Rao
“I am the luckiest man in the world,” said veteran actor Akkineni Nageswara Rao, who was jointly felicitated by TSR Kala Parishat and Telugu filmdom at a star-studded function held at Shiplakavedikda on Monday, for completing 75 years as an actor on film and stage.
Attributing his success to luck, he said he believed in hard work to overcome the struggles he faced at varied phases of an illustrious career. “Maybe luck favours the brave, and I should thank my mother who allowed me to be an actor from the age of nine, since I wasn’t good at studies and did stage plays before getting into films,” he said.
His biggest luck, he says, was having filmmaker Bhalaramaiyah spot him at a railway station. “That changed my destiny,” ANR said, expressing his thanks to those present for their support. Chief Minister N. Kiran Kumar Reddy, who was the chief guest on the occasion, said, “It’s an impeccable achievement. I enjoyed watching his movies from childhood and I would like to see more of his films.”
Rajya Sabha member T. Subbarami Reddy, who jointly organised the event with the Telugu film fraternity, and who has known the actor for 40 years, felt that ANR deserved the Bharat Ratna “for his memorable acting career and for being a great human being, also having a sharp mind”.
