Teja ki tata cheppina directorlu
Good news here. RP Patnaik is not poking his nose in others affairs. He is going to direct a film with new star cast and with a new producer.
Look at these people here, they have all worked in important posts and have been part of Teja’s team and are now on their own to make [...]
Promises are made to be broken
Teja is known for earning crores but he is also famous for paying peanuts to his associates. Okkappudu flats kooda konisthanu ani chepparanta. Nijam! Success vocchinaka he is shirking away the people who have been instrumental in giving him success. Poor RP Patnaik ki illu kooda ledhu, Teja did give him a Skoda. Paapam Kulasekhar ki [...]
JD malli adhe kitchdi?
JD Chekri quotes ee kaadhu, he’s equally good at lifting stories. Now he will be directing a bilingual of The Departed which won an Oscar. JD will play the villain’s role done by Matt Damon, Jagapati Babu will be found in the role played by Leonardo DiCaprio (the hero) and Raghuvaran in Jack Nicholson’s role.
Isn’t [...]
Mass comedy Vs Class comedy
Bhukailas is releasing on May 11th and Gundammagari Manavadu on May 5th. What’s interesting here is both the comedians have made a name for themselves in the market. It’s the battle of the equals now. There is no discrimination except for the fact Venumadhav is called a mass comedian and Ali a class comedian.
Hasyaspadam
Holding a variety quiz programme with all easy answers for the media but giving away a gift of Rs. 2000 to ten guys from some electronic channels only for the ‘winning anwers’ didn’t go well with some journalist brothers. Daantho media lo lokalokalu shuroo ayindhi. “Endhi bhai, vallakey icchindru ma vallaki iyyaledhendhi?” “Sorry choosukoledhu”, was [...]
A director’s insecurity
A director who is making a film with a big hero whose film bombed recently at the BO has roped in not so good technicians because he is very insecure; if he takes a good technician, he wouldn’t get the entire credit and he would have to share it with others. The film is the [...]
Krishna Vamsi eyes the moon
Krishna Vamsi is back to family entertainers. I found out that after Ninne Pelladutha and Murari his next one with Navadeep and Siva Balaji has been christened Chandamama. It sounds cool and soothing. Madhu Shalini and Angrita lend support to the lead guys. After this Vamsi will be reportedly doing Balakrishna’s movie. Kalyan who is producing [...]
Another rib-tickler from RK
RK is gonna be back with his new film “FM…. 100% Fun Aur Masti”. It will have Nova (of UK) and Payal of Calcutta as the heroines. While I keep you posted on that let me move over to Vishnu’s Romeo And Juliet which is touted to be inspired by Bunty Aur Babli. The filmmakers [...]
No more mommy’s around
Actresses have become very confident. They don’t tag their mum’s brother’s any longer to the sets. Even if they do most of them prefer to stay in the cool confines of the star hotels or guest houses. Heard their demands have become relatively less. Remember Satish, Sridevi’s brother who would demand petrol and kitchen money [...]
Chakri suffers from an inferiority complex?
After last year’s success of Devadasu, and this year’s BLBD, Desamuduru and Dhee we haven’t seen Chakri in many big projects and in projects that boast of big heroes. No one is giving him assignments and Puri Jagannath is giving him a chance now and then, not really consistently. Sources say that quality taggadame kakunda, [...]
Watch out for Naveen : Krishna Vamsi
The film editor must know how to tell a story, be politically savvy when working with directors and studio executives, and have a calm and confident demeanour. Lakhs of rupees worth of film and the responsibility of guiding the picture through post-production and into theatres rest in the editor’s hands. Scenes may have been photographed poorly [...]
Producers kadupu kodithe ela babu?
As we have already mentioned that Aditya Babu is going to produce a film with Ravi Teja and Raju Sundaram combo, there is yet another fresh news that he is going to produce another one with Sukumar (what a rapport they share!) as the director and the hero is not confirmed.
Wait inkoti vundhi with Prabhas which [...]
Replacement meedha replacement
Oka hero pellam exhibition kelli selects all the good and big things for her home and expects them to gift it to her. She forgets they have called her only for inauguration. Bonee cheyadaniki vocchi jebu lo bokka migilchindame. Look what this pellam does. She goes to a DVD store and picks up an argument, dabbulu kattanu DVD lo [...]
Aasa dosa appalam
It is not enough if you and I like a film immensely, it has to become a commercial hit, andharu maatladukovali, press meets petti lekkalu chepthe it can’t get into the success league. Well it is learnt that the two films (Samanyudu, Pellaina Kothalo) that Jagapati Babu worked in are not super duper hits. They are just average to [...]
Prabhas kaali na?
‘Sravanthi’ Ravikishore always had a soft corner for Sreenu Vytla. But after Dhee he seems to have made up his mind to make a movie with Vytla with nephew Ram as the hero. But Sreenu Vytla has already prepared a subject for Prabhas. Guess what, Prabhas is now not interested in Vytla’s film, he wants to work only with [...]
Tamil turf meedha Vishnu Dhee
Andhra Jyothy lo monna oka news item vocchindi. It is about a man Talangai Dorai who claims that the story of Dhee belongs to him and he sold the Telugu rights to Kona Venkat. After seeing the success of Dhee he says that the Tamil rights are in his kitty and is thinking of introducing Vishnu through Kona Venkat [...]
Vijaya Bhaskar loses his grip
I still can’t understand how anyone can term Sharwanand cute in Classmates. His face looked bloated and he didn’t match Kamalini at all. About the pairing, he looked years younger than her. The primary thing that went wrong with Classmates was the casting. The filmmaker should have kept his target audience in mind. One actor [...]
Bumper draw tagilindhi: Rajendra Prasad
Rajendra Prasad is truly excited about his crossover film, Quick Gun Murugan. He is currently in Mumbai and recollects how he bagged the project. “One person called Joseph who works for MTV called me one day and asked me if I’m interested in this international project. I told him, ‘Excuse me which Rajendra Prasad do [...]
You’d love to forget..Gnapakam
When you need hope, when you want to believe in the will of overcoming even the greatest obstacles, when you are looking for upliftment of spirit after Classmates, when you have nothing better to do on a saturday evening then, this is THE film which you shouldn’t be watching even in the privacy of your [...]
