Mumbai: City police today claimed to have busted an international prostitution racket with the arrest of three persons and rescued a young woman from Uzbekistan and a small-time Telugu actress-cum-model here today.
The trio, who worked as pimps, was arrested outside a five star hotel in suburban Santacruz today, police said.
According to police, they had received a tip-off that a flesh trade, involving young female foreigners and Indian actors, was being operated in the city.
Posing as customers, the cops approached the three agents, identified as Lalgeeta Nunnumandal, Ganesh Neeromandal and Samshad Ahmed Khan.
"The accused said they have foreign as well as Indian women working for them. They charge anything between Rs 50,000 to Rs 60,000 for a foreign lady and Rs 40,000 for an Indian woman," D R Gamore, inspector at Vakola police station said.
As the deal was struck, the accused called the cops, taking them as their customers, near the posh Grand Hyatt hotel at Kalina at 2 am today.
"The three agents, along with two women, arrived outside the hotel and were waiting for us. We went to them and arrested the agents before rescuing the females," Gamore said.
Indian woman is an actress-cum-model, who hails from Andhra Pradesh and has acted in several Telugu films, while the foreigner was identified as Uzbekistan national.
"The woman from Uzbekistan does not understand English. The Indian lady introduces her friend as a Russian to the customers. The two were sent to remand home, where they would be counselled before sending them to their respective homes," Gamore added.
Junior NTR and politics are going hand in hand these days. The reason for that was the speculation about Junior planning to support TDP. Whether that is happening or not, the latest update is that he is planning to become ‘MLA’. However, this is not for politics but for a pure family entertainer.
Apparently, director Harish Shankar who has a project with Junior is reportedly working on coming up with a title. This is ‘MLA’ otherwise known as ‘Manchi Lakshanaalunna Abbai’. So, it has nothing to do with politics and the title seems to be almost finalized. For now, Junior is busy with ‘Dammu’.
After that, he would be working with Srinu Vaitla for a new movie and this would be followed by the film with Harish Shankar. The director from his end is currently busy with the shaping up of ‘Gabbar Singh’. What remains to be seen is how well this ‘MLA’ will score at the box office.

‘Cameraman Ganga Tho Rambabu’ is the new title for pawan kalyan’s film to be directed by Puri Jagannath. Apparently this monarchic director fresh from the success of ‘Businessman’ has got this peculiar movie name revealed for teaming with Power Star. Being honest for the efficient platform provided by Pawan for Puri with ‘Badri,’ it’s time for him to give something in return and this could be the project.
On the other side, when title matters the most in present day filmy world…pawan kalyan playing Photo Journalist in title role as Ram Babu is great to hear. Nevertheless there is some sort of criticism flamed up on how Pawan agreed to take up this kind of a funny title. Absolute, acceptable truth behind is that, when pawan kalyan is the hero…who cares about title and nothing is the matter.
No.1 Hero of the season, Superstar MaheshBabu is creating sensations with each passing day. Here is another gossip that is now beating the ears of people in Film Nagar.
A film with a director like Puri, Sreenu Vytla and the one and only Rajamouli is always big news. With Mahesh doing two films back to back with Sreenu Vytla and Puri Jagan, the only one remained now is Rajamouli. According to grapevine, Rajamouli has already given nod to direct Mahesh Babu in a big-budgeted movie. Some are saying that it will be a period flick like MAGADHEERA as Mahesh hasn't done any such role till date.
Even if it is a MAGADHEERA or a VIKRAMAARKUDU, Rajamouli's taking-brilliance will surely places Mahesh in a much better position. As per the talk now, Mahesh is next to Superstar Rajnikanth in terms of business and a film from Rajamouli will may match him with Indian Superstar Rajni. Let us wait for the big-day of this movie's announcement. Stay connected!
As Mahesh Babu came much closer to the NO. 1 position by delivering back-to-back superhits, the discussion has started about whether Ram Charan will succeed or not in occupying the top slot, left by his father.
In fact, most of the indications are not in favour of the Charan. Even the Industry biggies were saying that the 3-film old actor is no match for Chiru in any way.
"Now it lookslike, Charan is just imitating Megastar. But the fact is that he could never become Chiru. He should come out of the shadow of his father by trying something different and innovative. Orelse, No.1 position will remain as his unfulfilled dream forever," a renowned producer said under anonymity.
"Chiranjeevi's passion for cinema is unmatchable. Even after so many years in the Industry, he still gets excited while hearing to a script, feels tense on the first day of shoot and gives his 100 percent for every shot. That's why, he ruled the Industry for decades. Chiru had an aura around him and no other actor could replace him," said an top director.
Hope Charan learns from his mistakes and fulfill his wish to become the NO. 1!!!
