Adhinayakudu Gets a weak reception
After going through endless turmoil under production and post production, Adhinayakudu finally got released on Friday. Despite raising curiosity with political dialogues, Adhinayakudu didn’t open big at the box office.
However, Adhinayakudu got better openings compared to Balakrishna’s Parama Veera Chakra. The talk and reviews for this film are not encouraging though. Balakrishna fans like it but other sections of audiences are not pleased with the content.
This is an age of entertainers and only such movies are doing well. Hence, Adhinayakudu which is high on politics and family drama isn’t getting the attention of entertainment seekers.

Aishwarya Rai @ Past, Present And Future
One of the key reasons why India has always stood apart from the rest of the world and respected was due to the Indian women. They stood as the embodiment of motherhood, a devoted wife, a successful professional, a perfect daughter and a great friend. In one line, many from the other parts of the world consider an Indian woman as the complete woman. However, things have changed drastically and today, such values and principles hardly matter to many of them.
However, that has not darkened the shine of the image of an Indian woman and the reason for that is, there are still those exceptional ladies who know how to complete the essence of life. One among them is Aishwarya Rai. It can be said that after Hema Malini, Sridevi, Madhuri Dixit, it is Aish who shot to iconic national fame. All are beauties forever and they grab attention even today though they have passed their prime. Even today, they are known in every nook and corner of the country and also in many parts of the world.
The important thing to note is even after their retirement they grab attention. Now, the common point is all are classical dancers except Sridevi. Hema Malini is still fit with practicing dance even at the age of 63 years and Aish has proved to be a complete woman. Personally and professionally she has proved to be a successful individual. The likes of Madhuri, Sridevi, Hema fulfilled all the conditions to become complete women.
Even Aish has got something like that. Going forward, many are saying that if she is planning to have more kids she should continue to be at home and go for the second child. But if she thinks Aaradhya is the first and last child, now is the time to cut down her weight and eventually shape up to make a comeback and give a few decent performances.
All in all, she has met all the criteria to be called as the perfect Bachchan Bahu. On the career front, she can do few decent roles and TV shows and grow big as another icon to reckon with and most importantly, set an example to many women of this nation.

Puri Fans @ Blasting DCM Critics
The first look of 'Devudu Chesina Manushulu' is out and everyone is busy doing their job including praising and criticizing. Some pot shots are anyway meaningless and here is answer for them from Puri's fans.
Some critics went on blasting Puri Jagan for using the 'naamam' of Lord Balaji in the title and the sexy pose of Ileana beside it. They felt that this is an insult to the sentiments of Hindus. Now, our director's fans are rolling out on the floor laughing for these comments. According to them, most production houses from Tollywood are named with Gods names. These banners produced various films ranging from action to sentiment, mass to b-grade genres.
All the time, a God's photo is imprinted on the posters of most films that showcase heroines at their sleaziest best. So, what happened to sentiments at that time is their question. Indeed, the production of these raunchy hot movies starts with a 'muhurtam' pooja. These guys have a point it seems!

Sangeetam Srinivasa Rao, who directed the original, will be directing the sequel too. Music of the film is by Manisharma and cinematography by Jayanan Vincent. Balayya played dual role in the original, one as a modern day youth and the other as Sri Krishna Deva Raya. It will be interesting to see how many roles Balayya will be playing in the sequel and how it would shape up. The regular shooting of the film will start from August this year.
