Hot property
Uttar Pradesh lo Amar Singh oka pedda mansion konnadanta. He then revealed that it was infact a belated wedding gift for Ash-Abhi. The name of the huge mansion is Aishwarya and this is supposed to have co-incided with the opening of the school in UP named after Aishwarya.
Producer gives a piece of his mind
We must have seen emperors sitting on a throne, chewing paan and then spitting it in a decorated pot carried by their assistants. This actor who plays villain’s role in telugu films has an awful habit…he travels in an AC car, chews tonnes of betel leaves and spits it in a box he carries with him constantly. [...]
Appudu Ippudu
Ee cinema vaalu enni saarlu public lo appear ayyi speechlu isthe antha expose avuthunnaru. Their ratings fall with every appearance. I feel those days were better when the electronic media wasn’t developed so much, when the actors valued their privacy, when they thought even appearing on television would rob them of their enigma. People would [...]
Prawns thinte paapama?
This incident happened ages back, old news I guess but it’s for those who don’t know. An actor got drunk and came back to his hotel. “food readyaa” ani adigaadu. The make up artiste said yes. Carraige open chesi chooste royyalu takkuva ga unnayi. The assistant was questioned and he must have lied that he didn’t touch. [...]
Awardaa, aatavastuva?
I saw the Cinemaa Awards, it was conducted very well …the little girls rendering those songs was a very beautiful sight. But what I honestly felt was that Tarak was trying to outsmart Chiranjeevi by returning the award to him on the pretext of taking Shoban Babu’s name. He might have had immense respect for [...]
A candid expression
I had been to a TV channel this morning and found a few telugu newspapers. While I was going through them I stopped at Jayasudha’s snippet wherein she was talking about Shoban Babu and referred to him as the only good looking man in the industry those days and wound up her quote not before mentioning that [...]
Morning Show Muchatlu - Aatadista
It was Aahuti Prasad who stole the show in Chandamama and here it is Siva Prasad who becomes the saving grace. But for him, the film would have ended up with an egg on it’s face. The plot is so silly and non sensical, the romantic angle so juvenile and under developed that you fail [...]
A complete planned life
I have read so many interviews of film personalities and other celebrities and everytime I came across the line….that I keep my personal and professional life separate…I find it difficult to believe and something told me that the lines are purely for the ‘effect’. But somehow I wanted to believe that it’s true in the [...]
Morning Show Muchatlu - John Appa Rao 40 Plus
Kuchipudi Venkat has written the story, dialogues and even produced this film. It was much awaited one because apart from being termed as Krishna Bhagwan’s first film as a hero, it is a come-back film for Simran who was on a sabbatical after her marriage and motherhood. Also the hero plays a double role, but [...]
Aataditchina Bonala Shankar
Siva Prasad who acted as a Bonala Shankar as a villain did a commendable job. Despite a weak script, cinemani nettukuntoo votchaaru. He is basically a megalomaniac in Aatadista, and can’t tolerate a young fellow shaking his pride. His potshots at the media…like, ‘no comments’ ‘kandistunnanu’ ‘chattam tana pani taanu chesukuntu pothundi’ ’simham laanti vaadini nannu [...]
What an answer!
Shweta, the actress who worked in Kasauti Zindagi Ki participated in the dance competition for couples. TV lo votche Nach Baliye II kosam the wife and hubby duo are said to have purchased SIM cards for relatives and friends to up the SMS votes. Adigithe she said, “everyone wants to win and we have done what [...]
A damp squib
The glamour quotient was missing at Mohan Babu’s b’day function at his school in Tirupati. Contrary to the speculation by the media and the film industry that he might announce his political plans, the actor confined the programme to a purely academic concern. The programme which lasted for more than five hours was a damp [...]
Will RGV make a comeback?
Ramu, Satya tho aagipoyaada? No one here knows what’s happening with Factory. If it’s still churning films then Sarkar Raj, Zabardast and Leelai could be amongst the list. Actually Company Satya kante better film but it doesn’t get rated because Satya mundhu votchindi. We do have his person JD Chekri giving us Homam soon. Inka [...]
Those loony movies…
While watching Premabhishekam..veediki cancer ledhu, I noticed the heroine all dressed like Sridevi with two ponies, a tight skirt, and an overcoat over the top. Poor Venu Madhav he did his best to recreate the film but it all ended up as an extended mimicry show that you see on the television. Heard he is [...]
Celebs love themselves unconditionally
Ye endaku aa godugu patte politicians, actors mana industry lo chaala mandi unnaru. We should ignore celebrities except when they are doing what they are celebrated for doing: acting, speeches, playing cricket et cetera. Skill does not confer moral, political, or intellectual discrimination. If a celebrity is not celebrated for doing anything but being a [...]
No one is above the law, raids to continue
The volunteer disclosures by the film stars is not going to solve problems. Now that they have paid, the stars have now exposed themselves and are suspects, will be probed into the coming days..bcoz it’s evident they have much to hide and less to pay. A scribe on the telly said that there is no relation [...]
Players or products?
Stung by the accusation that he was using his presence at the Twenty20 matches to promote Om Shanti Om, SRK in his inimitable style became a master of one of the leagues. There has been many a debate on this, some called it a rape of the game and others felt that instead of auctioning [...]
Pani paata leni agitations
I still see no sense in some people creating trouble for Jodha Akbar in some parts of north india. Cinema mana entertainment kosam, it’s a creative medium and would be nice if people start treating it as a source of history.
I remember very vividly that the ‘telephone’ song in Bharateeyudu was shot in Sydney but [...]
but ut no this man took his own sweet time to take the site seeing trip with RGV. i dont believe RGV has come...
