Mahesh No.1 Hero Confirmed!!!

Advent of Chiranjeevi into Politics leaving film industry has apparently created the vacancy for No.1 chair in Tollywood. There are numerous names revolving in entire Andhra Pradesh with hot discussions going around for whom to be declared as the next No.1. Dedicated Fan bases for every celebrity family made the situation much more turbulent.
Whether Mega or Nandamuri or Ghattamaneni…Hero from which family has the worth to replace Chiranjeevi?

‘Tollywood is populated with so many talented young heroes and fight to reach the top is still going on. May be, we have to rent this No. 1 Seat on seasonal basis. If Ramcharan attempted on it for the first with ‘Magadheera,’ other heroes like mahesh babu is leading the race today with ‘Dookudu’ and Junior NTR with ‘Oosaravelli.’ Consistency is the key which none of our heroes seems to have learnt. If ‘Businessman’ rocks more than ‘Dookudu’ added with other heroes falling back in the contest, may be we get a clear winner in mahesh babu based on instantaneous calculations and projections. Let us see as 2012 will become so crucial,’ said a senior film analyst.

Sruthi Hassan Walkout from NTR Dammu

Junior NTR Dammu is left in dilemma with Shruti Hassan walking out of the project citing call sheet problems. Shruti Hassan was zeroed in for NTR, Boyapati Srinu film Dammu long back and she had even shot few scenes for the film. Then why did she walk out of the project?

Shruti Hassan's dates given for Dammu have gone wasted as NTR wasn't available at that time. NTR Junior gave away the dates given for Dammu to Oosaravelli to ensure its release for Dussera. Hence, Shruti Haasan's dates were wasted and now she is busy with other assignments and couldn't give bulk dates for Dammu.

Shruti tried her best to not to walk out of Dammu, but the packed schedules planned for this film in the next few months, didn't help the cause. Shruti is right now busy with Gabbar Singh and Tamil movie 3 and therefore wished Dammu team good luck and walked out. Now the team of Dammu have to find a suitable heroine and it will surely take some time as all the top rated heroines are busy at the moment. 

Ileana lost her Charm

Ileana, the hourglass beauty, who was in news for wrong reasons in the recent past is now waiting for her biggest South Indian film, Nanban (3 Idiots remake) to release to regain her position. Ileana is doing the female lead in this film directed by Shankar in which she is paired up with Vijay. This movie is going to have simultaneous release in Telugu and Tamil for Pongal.
 Ileana has been on the top in Tollywood for almost five years, but she is facing severe competition from Samantha, Kajal and Tamanna at the moment. She is not 'fresh' anymore as our audience always craves for change, especially with heroines. Ileana is aware of this and she is trying to look young and fresh to compete with the new stars.
She has been working out vigorously to look at her slimmest best which seems to have affected her physique. Ileana who was at her voluptuous best in the films like Kick and Jalsa, is looking skinny and ultra lean in Nanban. This lean look didn't do any good to the actress and the onlookers say that it is giving an aged look to her. Hope Ileana puts on some kilos before it is too late.

Mahesh Private Party for Srinu Vaitla

Mahesh Babu scored a blockbuster hit with Dookudu and celebrated the success with Srinu Vaitla at Swanky Hotel in Mumbai.The party was in honour of Vaitla, for directing the record-breaking hit Dookudu. Apart from directors Ram Gopal Varma and Puri Jagannath, hotshot Prabhas also joined the low-key celebrations.

The talk at the three-hour long party was mostly about figures of Dookudu. Director Srinu Vaitla was in a joyful and proud mood. However Ram Gopal Varma and Puri Jagannadh complimented Mahesh and Srinu Vaitla for this huge success. Even Prabhas praised the director and the star host enjoyed the "much-needed" break, amidst the hectic shooting schedules of The Businessman.
The Businessman crew and Mahesh Babu have scheduled their shoot at Goa for Climax Scenes. RGV came up with shower of praises on Puri Jagannadh for Businessman, and the expectations on the movie got doubled after Dookudu success.

Chiranjeevi is nothing infront of Mahesh Babu @ RGV

Stay calm ! Do not jump into any bigger conclusions as yet. Here is the story for you.Puri Jagannad is planning to remake 'Khaidhi' casting Mahesh Babu.He wrote a scriptfor the movie.This script was presented to Ram Gopal varma.As usual varma cameup with a sensational tweet , comparing both characters in Old and New Khaidhi. He tweeted "Jagan cheppina mahesh characterisation tho compare chesthe
kodandarami reddy chiranjeevi characteriztion is nothing".(Kodandaramireddy Chiranjeevi's character is nothing compared to Puri's jagannad's Mahesh characterization ).

He also tweeted "Ee rojuna nenu vinna mahaa adbhutamamaina news mahesh poori jagan combinationlo chiranjeevigaari qaidi ni remake cheyyabothunnarani". He praised Business man in another tweet "Ippude poori jagan mahesh businessman lo konni scenes choosaanu ....idhi dookudu kaadhu jumpudu kaadhu idhi double jumpudu". So this comparison ignited the heat between both camps.We have to stay tuned to find out whether this project will be materialized or not.If it does we cannot wait to see Mahesh playing Chiranjeevi's Khaidhi role.Though comparisons are inevitable, Visual treat for audience is guaranteed.

NTR follows Chiranjeevi, Nagarjuna

Young Tiger NTR is all set to expand his news channel Studio N with new features and programmes. It is heard that NTR started all the work four months ago and is spending lakhs of money on it. He formed a team and they are working on this project.

The channel offers 24/7 entertainment and will also screen movies on it. Initially, the team has decided to buy the dubbing films followed by Telugu films. Now-a-days, to acquire the satellite rights of a Telugu film one has to spend over Rs 5 crore on it. But, with a star like NTR as the director, it seems to be an easy task for this channel to bag the satellite rights of any film.
Earlier, Chiranjeevi and Nagarjuna have entered the Television market through Maa TV and now it looks like NTR is following them. Way to go NTR.

Ram Charan Racha first look details

Ram Charan’s upcoming film Racha shooting is going on at a brisk pace. The makers are aiming for Pongal release and hence they have been working for long hours to ensure that the film is complete in time. Tamanna is the heroine in this film and Rangam fame Ajmal is playing the villain.

Sampath Nandi who directed withYemaindi Eevela is directing this film. Ram Charan plays an out and out mass role in this movie. The film’s first look will be unveiled in November and the audio is expected to release in December. Manisharma is scoring the music for this film.
Ram Charan, who tasted a flop with Orange, is making sure that Racha doesn’t disappoint his fans and masses. Mega Supergood films is planning an aggressive promotional campaign for this film.

Dhoom type stunts in Ram Charan Racha

As per latest reports, Mega Power Star Ram Charan’s forthcoming mass entertainer Racha will have high octane action episodes on the lines of Bollywood film Dhoom. It is learnt that Allan-Amin who earlier worked for Dhoom series, Race and other Bollywood films are composing action episodes for Racha.
Recently, the film has completed its schedule in Goa where the unit have shot a race scene on Ram Charan and villain ‘Rangam’ Ajmal.  According to our sources, the scene came out really well and will look super stylish on screen. Ram Charan is donning an out and out mass role in this film. Sampath Nandi is directing the film on Mega Supergood Films banner.
The makers are planning to release the film on January 26.

Srinu Vaitla sensational comments on Jr NTR, Nani

Srinu Vaitla’s latest film Dookudu not only earned him success but also arrogance, says the industry sources. The reason behind this is the director’s sensational comments on Young Tiger NTR and budding star Nani.

The incident happened at the success party of Dookudu which was held on the birthday of Srinu Vaitla recently. It is learnt that, the director, in inebriated state has made few comments on NTR’s height and Nani’s stardom. Nani, who worked as an assistant to Vaitla for Dhee is also present at the party. When questioned, the director tried to attack the actor. As a result, a heated argument took place between them and others intervened to control the situation.
The fans of NTR are fuming at the director and demanding an apology. Looks like Vaitla has spoiled his career on his own. According to our sources, Vaitla is already under the scanner and will face an action soon or later.

'Khaidi' Remake @ Mahesh Babu

One of the most talked about and regarded blockbuster of Tollywood history is ‘Khaidi’. This is the film that brought stardom to Chiranjeevi. With the remake culture becoming somewhat rampant, it is now heard that ‘Khaidi’ is gearing up for a remake and that too with some really interesting names surrounding it.
 Gossip mills reveal that the film will have Mahesh Babu in the lead. Added to that, this would be directed by Puri Jagannadh. Though there is no official confirmation on any of this, the very piece of news has caused quite a stir in the filmnagar area and they are trying to confirm it.
 Whether it is true or not, many say “The very idea of seeing Mahesh stepping into the shoes of Chiranjeevi is a thrilling feeling. And with Puri’s unconventional style of narration, a totally new flavour will develop. While the head says this project looks unlikely, the heart wants the project to materialize.”

Serial Kisser Facing Serious Problem Everywhere!

He is perhaps one of the most fortunate heroes in Indian cinema who got to have intense smooching scenes with every heroine of his film. Apparently, this was meant to be a sentiment of the directors and producers who worked with him that if there is no smooch then there is no success.

As expected, he came to be known as the serial kisser. He is none other than Emraan Hashmi and now he has been facing a typical problem. It is heard that wherever Emraan has been going for his shooting, it is getting disrupted due to crowds thronging to have a look at him.
 The makers are reportedly mentioning that the shooting schedules are getting extended by an extra day or two. On the other hand, they have to hire extra bouncers to keep the crowds away but the serial kisser's mania has been uncontrollable. That's Emraan Hashmi for you folks.

The Businessman = Double Dookudu!!!

If this is to be believed then it is double good news for Mahesh fans who have already been riding high on Dookudu success. Mahesh Babu next film The Businessman will be equal to double Dookudu it seems. This is not the statement given by some 'darina poye danayya', but it is the gut feeling of maverick director Ram Gopal Varma.

RGV had the privilege to watch few scenes from Mahesh Babu, Puri movie The Businessman and the director is so excited about the scenes that he said "Ippude poori jagan mahesh businessman lo konni scenes choosaanu ....idhi dookudu kaadhu jumpudu kaadhu idhi double jumpudu".
Ram Gopal Varma seems to have high regard of Puri Jagannadh that he promotes his films without fail. He promoted Nenu Naa Rakshasi and Bbduddah movies in the similar fashion, but they were just ordinary films for the standards that Puri has set for himself. So RGV's feelings might not always turn out to be facts. Hold on until The Businessman strikes!

Why Mass Maharaj decreased his Speed?

Mass Maharaj raviteja is known industry as fast completer of projects. Without fingering into any department, he takes up those subjects which enthrall the audience full fledged with his regular mass mannerisms. Right now, he is creating a new record of his own with the film ‘Nippu.’ Never in the recent past raviteja has taken this kind of big gap of nearly nine months between his successive releases.

Ever since the disaster of ‘Veera,’ the logic of Ravi to accept a film with proved director Gunasekhar and producer YVS Chowdary is hailed as impressive but there are widespread rumors prevailing on the film related to illegitimate delays happening. Meanwhile ‘Nippu’ is gossiped to have got the release date of January 6. Even then, the time gap between ‘Veera’ and ‘Nippu’ is a new record as for raviteja’s speed is considered. Well, Ravi alone can answer as why there is such a sudden decrease in his speed.

Ranbir in Hindi Oosaravelli?

according to reports, Ranbir Kapoor is the one most likely to play the role. Ranbir has already seen Oosaravelli several times and he is keen to essay the role. If he is confirmed then the interest would then turn on to the heroine. Tamanna's name is being considered along with several others.

Kajal crawls back to Tollywood!

kajal agarwal committed a big blunder by belittling the Telugu film industry in her eagerness to make it big in Hindi. With her Hindi films dream fading she is now desperate to resurrect her career in Telugu. As of now Kajal has just one film in Telugu in hand – the mahesh babu starrer film The Businessman.

kajal seems to have realized her mistake and she is now desperate to come back to Telugu. She is reported to have signed up for a film with Ram Charan. She is also being considered by director krish to cast her opposite rana in his new film. We have to wait and see if Kajal will succeed in regaining her lost glory in Telugu.
