Heard Chiru had a operation and is recuperating. He is supposed to be suffering from back pain for a long time. He was advised to go through the operation before the campaign begins.

Proof kaavalanta

MPs ni kontunnaru ante Manmohan Singh proof ekkada ani aduguthunnaru?
My friend just came back from calcutta. This is the first time she visited it and said the city needs to be dumped once in a bath tub.  Hyd emaina takkuva? It was never so dirty. No more clean and green. Ye govt ki unde advantages [...]

Prabhas most loved

There were some scenes in Chakram that revolved around kids and Prabhas. The few days that the shooting took place, the actor spent his own money and gifted the children with chocolates and spent time with them, giving them individual attention. Even today the kids recall those moments and are all praise for him.
The hike in [...]

Feet are for prostrating

A director cum producer who loves having yes men around him once gave an interview to a vernacular journalist. Poor man, he lacks tact, diplomacy like me. Copy word to word published in his mag. Actually there was nothing wrong that the director spoke. He just lauded the film he was releasing as a great [...]

I can’t take tensions: Sneha Ullal

Sneha Ullal is prompt in answering her SMs. No assistants, No PR managers. “I’m very particular about that, the last time I hired one I goofed up on the protocol and they were actually doing my interviews.

Happy Birthday Surya

Ee roju Surya birthday. Talking to TCP, the actor cum director says Pavan kalyan does not play a dual role in this film. But is Surya working in the tamil version of Puli? “That only time will say!” he replies. A low profile man he likes to keep to himself and as usual this birthday [...]

TV9 getting despo

The film chamber, the producer’s council and entire industry should ban this TV9. All actors should collectively decide not to appear on this channel or stop supplying film info and content for unnecessarily giving publicity to M.Krishna. Telugu film industry is one place which doesn’t have a slurred reputation in the form of actor’s associating themselves with the mafia. [...]

Hare Krishna

Malli modhalaindi. Now Krishna says EVV tea kootu pettadaniki kooda panikiraadu. Looks like the triplets are conjoined at birth…..oka cinema story raayocchu. Three characters separated after surgery. KAP, MK and M. One has an irresistable urge of dropping names and thinks he is next to God. The other like Ram in “Hare Ram’ can’t see intelligent [...]

Nothing special

Why do producers ask krishna Vamsi to choreograph songs for them? He composed one on jagapati babu, Anushka, Bhumika in one film and then two songs in lakshyam (for free) and then one on kaveri Jha. All his songs are beginning to look alike. Same sand dunes, women in transparent skimpy clothes running on the [...]

Movie Review - Hare Ram

Hari and Ram are born as conjoined twins to Chandramohan and Sita. After surgery, the doctor (Ranganath) tells the parents that one of the child will grow up with a slight abnormality and they will have to live with it. It takes just a few minutes to realize that it’s just not their birth that [...]

Plus for the hero, minus for the heroine

This can’t be a co-incidence. Why do most industry men don’t tuck their shirts in? Especially directors. There is an unwritten rule in TFI that if you are lurking in and around the sets when the shooting is on, and you are found with your shirt tucked in, you could in all probabilities hurt the [...]

Demystified

Every actor or a director tries to look different or they have their own style of dressing. Veda doesn’t go out without her long earrings, some prefer to wear only white. I always wanted to know why Kodi Ramakrishna ties a cloth around his forehead. i met a ‘filmi’ person recently and he provided an [...]
