Gopichand says Mogudu is a dream come true project

Actor Gopichand revealed that he has been waiting to work with Krishna Vamsi for 10 years. The actor who made his debut with “Tholi Valapu” admitted that he had only approached two directors for work. One he said was Krishna Vamsi and the second one was Teja. While Teja gave him “Jayam”, his desire to work with Krishna Vamsi had to be kept on hold for 10 long years.

Speaking about his experience Gopichand said, Krishna Vamsi was like an institution and there was no limit to the knowledge that can be absorbed while working in a Krishna Vamsi film. He also said that he is yet to come across a director with such amazing knowledge of music, lyrics and song picturization. Gopichand said Mogudu will have a strong emphasis on family and relationships and will be a movie that will have an instant connect with the audience. Mogudu is slated for a November 4th release.

Mahesh In Alluri Seetarama Raju But Not In Khaidi

All of a sudden Ram Gopal Varma declared on twitter that Khaidi is going to get remade. Many have shocked reading that. In fact Puri Jagannath also tweeted in support of RGV’s tweet. The major shock point was it was announced that Mahesh Babu is going to portray the title role.

But when enquired, finally it was ruled out as a gossip. And now, Mahesh Babu is busy with 'The Businessman'. And he has 'Seetamma Vakitlo Sirimalle Chettu' as his next project. So it is out of question to see Mahesh Babu in Khaidi.

But many are feeling that it would be nice to see Mahesh Babu in the remake of 'Alluri Seetarama Raju' if happens. Yes, that is really a good idea indeed.

So, it sounds sensible to see Mahesh Babu in 'Alluri Seetarama Raju' but not in 'Khaidi'. And Khaidi can be remade. If at all, with Ram Charan only, and there can be no other substitute.

Trisha upset with Mahesh Babu Rumors

Top actress Trisha may not be hot anymore as many young heroines are ruling the roost. But Trisha is still not down and out as she is the only choice for many films with senior actors in the lead. Recently a wild rumor made rounds about her stating that she would play elder sister-in-law (vadina) to Mahesh Babu in Seetamma Vakitlo Sirimalle Chettu movie.

Venkatesh and Mahesh are playing brothers in this film and Trisha is rumored to play Venkatesh’s wife in it. Trisha acted opposite Mahesh in Atadu and Sainikudu movies and playing an elderly role to him will definitely lower her image.

Trisha who came to know about these news reports is shell shocked and deeply upset. "How would I play an elderly role to Mahesh with whom I have done two films as a heroine? Right now I am enjoying the best phase of my career and these rumors have shocked me like hell," she told. Gone are the days when heroines played mother and sister roles to the actors with whom they danced around. On a side note, Trisha would be mighty pleased to bag a role opposite Junior NTR who is almost ten years younger to Mahesh!

Secret behind @ Dookudu 50 Days Function

Producers of Dookudu are planning to conduct fifty days function of the movie in a grand way. The venue is fixed in Vijayawada and the unit of Dookudu is expecting a huge crowd. Mahesh Babu is generally against public functions although he participated in few like Okkadu silver jubilee function.

For Dookudu even the star is showing keen interest as he is extremely happy with the film being a humongous hit. He wanted to share his joy with his fans. But the sources from film nagar say that there are few hidden agendas in conducting this function in such a grand manner. Dookudu makers claim that they have surpassed Magadheera all time records but the trade analysts contradict with it.

Even though few shows are being aired by various news channels stating that Magadheera record was broken, people are not believing these claims. The producers of Dookudu haven't released any collections info regarding this. Hence, they are banking on word of mouth to make people believe that Dookudu is a bigger hit than Magadheera.

They will state that Dookudu has broken Magadheera on the fifty days stage amidst lakhs of fans and film buffs and so that they will get the maximum mileage from the media too. Right from the day one the hyped collection figures of Dookudu have been in circulation with a sole aim to beat Magadheera. But the fact is that Dookudu will end with more than fifteen crores short of Magadheera in its full run going by the trend.
