      Iphone 16 Series: Introducing 5 Dynamic New Features Including Satellite Calling!
      Iphone 16 Series: Introducing 5 Dynamic New Features Including Satellite Calling!
      Mobile enthusiasts have eagerly awaited the launch of the Apple iPhone 16 series. The models were unveiled during the launch event on Monday night, September 9th. Along with the latest iPhones, Apple also released other products. According to earlier reports, the new iPhones have been designed with cutting-edge specifications. It is understood that all devices in the iPhone 16 series will incorporate the new Apple Intelligence system along with the A18 Bionic chip. Let’s now explore the features of the iPhone 16 series that are making waves on social media. Action Button The Action Button, introduced in the iPhone 15 series, continues in iPhone 16. Up to iPhone 14, devices had a mute or vibrate button above the volume rocker on the side. This was replaced with the Action Button in the iPhone 15 Pro models. This button allows you to activate the camera, turn on the flashlight, and switch focus modes, among other functions. You can also switch between ring and vibrate modes using this button. Special functions can be assigned to this button as well. Four Models The iPhone 16 series will be available in four models: iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro, and iPhone 16 Pro Max. These four models will come in storage variants of 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB. New Color Options: Gold After a long hiatus, Apple has reintroduced the gold color in iPhone 16 models. This time, they are also offering blue, green, black, and gold color options. Changed Design The design of the iPhone 16 will be similar to that of the iPhone 15 and 14, but leaks suggest some changes. It's said that the iPhone 16 will feature a vertical camera setup, resembling the iPhone 12 but with larger camera sensors. For those considering an upgrade, now might be a good time. Bigger Display Changes in the display of the iPhone 16 are also anticipated. Specifically, the iPhone 16 Pro Max is expected to feature a 6.9-inch OLED display, an increase from the 6.5-inch OLED display in the iPhone 15 Pro Max. Satellite Calling All Apple 16 Pro models will allow calls and messages to all countries without a SIM card, thanks to upgraded satellite connectivity, running on iOS 18. Apple Intelligence Another new feature in the iPhone 16 is Apple Intelligence, powered by the new A18 chip. This feature will be enabled in the iPhone 16 Plus, Pro, and Pro Max models alongside the base models. Apple Intelligence is expected to include features similar to ChatGPT. Longer Battery Life Battery capacities have been increased in the iPhone 16 models. The iPhone 16 Plus now has a 4006mAh battery, the iPhone 16 Pro has a 3367mAh battery, and the iPhone 16 Pro Max has a 4676mAh battery, which will allow the Pro Max variant to have a battery life of up to 30 hours. Titanium Design A standout feature in the iPhone series is the titanium design. The iPhone 16 series models have been introduced with a titanium design, making the phone significantly lighter and giving it a sleek, stylish appearance. Powerful Processor While the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus models were equipped with the A16 and A17 Bionic processors, all models in the iPhone 16 series will be upgraded to the A18 chip. Compared to the base models of the iPhone 15, the iPhone 16 base models are expected to be up to 7 times faster. No Camera Upgrade Like the iPhone 15 models, the iPhone 16 series will also feature a 48MP f/1.6 back camera and a 12MP f/2.2 front camera setup. Although there are no major changes in the camera, the megapixel count has been increased, which should improve photo quality in low-light conditions. Additional features like macro photography and special video capture capabilities are also expected. Frosted Glass Back Panel Previously limited to the Pro models, the frosted glass back panel has now been extended to the base models, iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus. This panel provides protection against fingerprints and other marks and lends a premium look to the phone. Higher Refresh Rate Apple has upgraded the display refresh rate from 60Hz to 120Hz, a welcome improvement that should make the iPhone 16 display appear even more premium and actionable. Faster MagSafe Wireless Charging Compared to previous models, MagSafe wireless charging in the iPhone 16 is expected to be faster. While the iPhone 15 offered an improved wireless charging experience with Qi2-based charging, it was somewhat behind compared to Android phones. However, reports suggest that the charging speed in the iPhone 16 has been increased. Previously, it took nearly two hours to fully charge an iPhone, but this time is expected to be significantly reduced. Prices? Apple has set the prices for the iPhone 16 series during the launch event. The iPhone 16 (128 GB) is priced at $799 (approximately INR 67,000), the iPhone 16 Plus (128 GB) at $899 (approximately INR 75,400), the iPhone 16 Pro (256GB) at $1099 (approximately INR 92,261), and the iPhone 16 Pro Max (256 GB) at $1199 (approximately INR 1,00,656). Bookings for the iPhone 16 will begin in three days, and purchases can be made directly through the Apple website or offline stores.

      #BoycottSaiPallavi Trends Over Army Comments as Her War Film 'Amaran' Releases; Bollywood PR Drama Exposed?
      Sai Pallavi's latest film 'Amaran' is set to release this Diwali as a festive treat for the audience. The film, set against an army backdrop, has kept Sai Pallavi very busy with promotions. During this period, some netizens have targeted her, calling for a boycott of Sai Pallavi's films on social media. The hashtag #BoycottSaiPallavi is trending nationwide. A video of her past comments, perceived as insulting to the Indian army, has been going viral on social media for the last three days. What Actually Happened? As known, the film 'Amaran' is set against an army backdrop. This has brought Sai Pallavi's controversial past comments about the Indian army back into the spotlight, causing the related video to go viral. During the promotions of the movie 'Virata Parvam,' Sai Pallavi gave an interview to a YouTube channel, discussing terrorism and violence. She remarked, "We view Pakistani soldiers as terrorists, and similarly, Pakistanis see our Indian soldiers as terrorists. They think we are harming them. Violence is no solution to any problem. Wars were fought in the past when there was no law. Now, there is no need for that." These comments have ignited fury among netizens. https://twitter.com/ViralVidox/status/1850064411202932830 Demand for Boycott In the same interview where Sai Pallavi allegedly disrespected the Indian army, she also made remarks that have been construed as offensive to Sanatana Dharma. This video too has gone viral, with netizens campaigning on social media for everyone to boycott Sai Pallavi's films. Nationalist and traditionalist groups are demanding a 100% boycott of Sai Pallavi's films, suggesting that since she favors Pakistan, she might as well make films there. They are criticizing her harshly, saying she is not really the national crush but a different kind of crush. A netizen has also demanded a boycott of her latest film 'Amaran' and even called for her removal from the upcoming Hindi film 'Ramayanam,' in which she is supposed to play Sita. There are demands for stringent action against those who speak ill of Sanatana Dharma. On the other hand, Sai Pallavi's fans are defending her, claiming her words are being twisted and unnecessary controversy is being stirred up. https://twitter.com/Bhav1212B/status/1850791387672801479 https://twitter.com/cinematicfreak0/status/1850791153928745098 https://twitter.com/devx_18k/status/1850791086458831193 https://twitter.com/Chhuparustam91/status/1850790246012653618 https://twitter.com/itz_meprabhat/status/1850787660815855924 https://twitter.com/itz_meprabhat/status/1850787660815855924 https://twitter.com/MissDD114/status/1850829733895737441 Sai Pallavi's Emotional Post Amidst these promotions for 'Amaran,' Sai Pallavi recently visited the National War Memorial. She paid tribute to soldiers who died for the country, posting photos of the visit on her Instagram. She added emotional words to these images, stating, "Before starting the promotions for Amaran, I wanted to visit the National War Memorial. I went there a few days ago. It is a sacred temple that holds details about soldiers who sacrificed their lives for us. I felt very emotional while paying tribute to Major Mukund Varadarajan and Soldier Vikram Singh." https://twitter.com/Sai_Pallavi92/status/1850571262755582363 Are They Deliberately Targeting Her? Recently, during the promotions for 'Amaran,' Sai Pallavi made interesting comments. She mentioned that someone from Bollywood, representing a PR agency, approached her promising to enhance her image. However, she rejected this offer, stating she had no need for such services. Now, accusations are surfacing that this is a targeted campaign to tarnish her image as she is about to make her Bollywood debut with 'Ramayanam.' There are significant comments urging her removal from the role of Sita. Discussions in film circles suggest that the Bollywood PR teams are deliberately targeting Sai Pallavi. https://twitter.com/bollywooddadi/status/1849561000456179910 Amar Jawan Biography The film 'Amaran', directed by Rajkumar Periasamy and starring Sivakarthikeyan with Sai Pallavi (Sai Pallavi) as the heroine, is set to release this month on the 31st, coinciding with Diwali. The movie is based on the life of the martyred soldier Major Mukund Varadarajan who fought against Pakistani terrorists. Sivakarthikeyan portrays the role of Mukund, while Sai Pallavi plays his wife Indu Rebecca Varghese. This emotionally charged film will be released across India in Telugu and Tamil. The trailer, filled with emotions, has captured the audience's attention. https://twitter.com/Siva_Kartikeyan/status/1839559422332346584

      Venkatesh’s Sankranti Treat: Hilarious Gun Mishap on Set, Big Box Office Clash Looms!
      Venkatesh’s Sankranti Treat: Hilarious Gun Mishap on Set, Big Box Office Clash Looms!
      Veteran actor Venkatesh is starring in the film Sankranthiki Vasthunnam, directed by the talented Anil Ravipudi. The movie features young heroine Meenakshi Chaudhary as Venkatesh's co-star, with Aishwarya Rajesh playing a significant second lead. Produced by Dil Raju, the film is set to release on January 14, 2025, as a Sankranti treat. Recently, the team held a press meet where director Anil Ravipudi shared an interesting incident from the film's shoot. "Accidentally Pointed a Real Gun" Tamil actor VTV Ganesh, who won the hearts of Telugu audiences with his single dialogue "Evarraa Nuvvu Intha Talented?" in Beast, plays a key role in Sankranthiki Vasthunnam. During the press meet, Anil Ravipudi shared a humorous yet nerve-wracking moment from the set involving VTV Ganesh. He recounted, "Ganesh sir asked me if I knew what a real gun felt like. Senior actor Naresh, who was on set, brought out his licensed gun. Without realizing it was loaded, I jokingly pointed it at Ganesh sir's head at point-blank range. Naresh panicked and immediately removed the bullets, explaining that even a slight touch could fire it. It was a close call. Ganesh sir, you must have a bright future, which is why you were saved that day!" Anil added that many such funny incidents occurred during the shoot. https://twitter.com/i/status/1859522147229573619 "That’s When the Industry Thrives" During the press meet, Venkatesh shared his thoughts, explaining that the team began production with the aim of releasing the film during Sankranti. He expressed confidence that the movie will resonate with fans and family audiences, offering them a fantastic festival watch. Venkatesh also extended his wishes for the success of Game Changer, starring Ram Charan, and Daku Maharaj, starring Balakrishna, both releasing during Sankranti. He remarked that the industry thrives when every film does well. Senior actor Naresh also praised Venkatesh, calling him one of the most versatile actors in India. https://twitter.com/i/status/1859522147229573619 https://twitter.com/i/status/1859522147229573619 Sankranti Hat-Trick Releases! The Sankranti season of 2025 is shaping up to be crucial for producer Dil Raju, who has three films lined up. Apart from Sankranthiki Vasthunnam, he is producing Game Changer, directed by Tamil filmmaker Shankar and starring Ram Charan, which is set to release worldwide on January 10, 2025. Additionally, he is distributing Daku Maharaj, a Balakrishna starrer directed by Bobby. Speaking at the press meet, Dil Raju expressed his confidence in all three films achieving great success. He also humorously commented about Anil Ravipudi, saying, "Anticipating competition from Game Changer during Sankranti, Anil cleverly titled his movie Sankranthiki Vasthunnam." https://twitter.com/i/status/1859522147229573619 70% Theaters Reserved for Dil Raju’s Films! With two direct releases and another film's theatrical rights secured, Dil Raju has already positioned himself strategically for Sankranti 2025.

      RC16: Ram Charan’s Wrestling Saga Begins with Divine Blessings and Star Cast Additions!
      RC16: Ram Charan’s Wrestling Saga Begins with Divine Blessings and Star Cast Additions!
      With Game Changer set to release during Sankranti, Ram Charan has already begun preparations for his next project, RC16, directed by Buchi Babu Sana. The film is expected to hit the sets soon, with a storyline centered around traditional wrestling. Ram Charan is currently undergoing a physical transformation to suit the role, while Buchi Babu has been visiting temples to seek divine blessings before starting the shoot. Recently, Buchi Babu was spotted performing special prayers in a temple in Mysore, drawing comparisons to ISRO scientists for his ritualistic approach. Just Like ISRO Scientists... The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) has carried out numerous successful experiments, but it is a tradition for ISRO chairpersons and scientists to seek blessings at temples before major launches. They visit Tirumala’s Sri Venkateswara Temple and perform rituals at Chengalamma Temple in Nellore’s Sullurpeta. Similarly, Buchi Babu’s actions remind many of these scientists. He has been visiting temples one after another ahead of the film’s shoot. Recently, Buchi Babu visited a Durga Temple in Kadapa with Ram Charan, placing the RC16 script before the goddess to seek blessings. He was later seen at Mysore’s Chamundeshwari Temple, praying for a smooth production and success. Netizens have started comparing Buchi Babu’s dedication to that of ISRO scientists. https://twitter.com/IamJagguBhai/status/1859820964600742352? https://twitter.com/IamJagguBhai/status/1859820964600742352? RC16 Shoot Begins On Friday, November 22, Buchi Babu visited Chamundeshwari Temple in Mysore and shared a photo holding the film’s script in the temple premises. He captioned it, calling it a very special day and stating that the much-awaited moment had arrived. With the blessings of Chamundeshwari Amma, the journey has begun, he added. This post confirmed that the regular shoot for RC16 began on Friday. Reports suggest the team has planned a three-day shoot in Mysore, filming scenes that do not involve the hero. Ram Charan is expected to join the shoot next week. https://twitter.com/IamJagguBhai/status/1859820964600742352? Jaggu Bhai Joins the Team The prominent production house Mythri Movie Makers is backing RC16. Veteran actor Jagapathi Babu has officially joined the cast, as confirmed by the makers. They shared a photo welcoming him to the project. This has sparked curiosity about his role in the film. Jagapathi Babu replied to the announcement with a "Thank you, Commando" message. Reports suggest he will play a character with negative shades, which aligns with hints in the recently released poster. Fans are excited, as Ram Charan and Jagapathi Babu previously delivered the blockbuster Rangasthalam, where they also played rival characters. https://twitter.com/IamJagguBhai/status/1859820964600742352? The Story of RC16 Buchi Babu Sana is said to be crafting RC16 around a unique concept with a village backdrop and traditional wrestling as the theme. The film is rumored to be inspired by the life of Andhra Pradesh’s legendary wrestler Kodi Rammurthy Naidu. Ram Charan is undergoing a physical transformation to suit the role, building a robust physique. Recently, he shared a photo with fans captioned "Beast Mode On," hinting at his preparations. Compared to his Game Changer look, Charan now sports a bulked-up physique, long hair, and a beard. Janhvi Kapoor is cast opposite Charan, with music composed by A.R. Rahman. Kannada actor Shiva Rajkumar is also expected to play a key role in the film. https://twitter.com/IamJagguBhai/status/1859820964600742352?

      Powerstar Pawan Kalyan’s Revenge? Cases Filed Against Celebrity Critics Amid Political Shakeup
      Powerstar Pawan Kalyan’s Revenge? Cases Filed Against Celebrity Critics Amid Political Shakeup
      After a decade into politics, Powerstar Pawan Kalyan achieved a significant victory in the 2024 Assembly elections. However, in the previous elections, representing the Jana Sena Party, he lost both constituencies he contested. The only MLA he managed to win later joined the ruling YSRCP government. This prompted fierce criticism from YSRCP leaders targeting Pawan. He also faced severe criticism from the Telugu film industry, especially from director Ram Gopal Varma and actor Posani Krishna Murali, who heavily targeted him. RGV even made a film trolling Pawan. With the coalition government (TDP-Jana Sena-BJP) in power in Andhra Pradesh and Pawan as the Deputy Chief Minister, it looks like some action may be taken on RGV and Posani, who were vocal critics. Serial Cases Against RGV On today's date (November 11), a case was filed against film director Ram Gopal Varma at Maddipadu Police Station in Prakasam District under the IT Act. He posted material during the promotion of the movie 'Vyuhm' that allegedly denigrated Nara Chandrababu Naidu, Nara Lokesh, Nara Brahmani, and Pawan Kalyan. The Telugu Desam Party's main secretary from Maddipadu Mandal lodged the complaint. Police registered the case and are conducting an investigation. Similarly, a case was also filed against RGV at Talluru Police Station in Guntur District for making indecent posts about Chandrababu, Pawan Kalyan, and Nara Lokesh. The vice president of the TDP's Farmers Division, Nutalapati Ramarao, filed a complaint today urging action against Varma. Consequently, Tuluru police also registered a case against RGV, who may soon be investigated. Imminent Arrest of Posani! Actor Posani Krishna Murali, known for his successful multiple roles in films, joined YSRCP after its establishment and campaigned for Jagan during the 2019 elections. After Jagan became Chief Minister, Posani was even more vocal than YSRCP leaders in targeting Pawan and Chandrababu. He faced accusations of character assassination in several press meets. Posani previously lashed out calling Pawan a mental case and alleging that the Mega family only formed parties for financial gains. He fiercely criticized them, leading to multiple lawsuits filed by Jana Sena supporters and women's groups, which were ignored while YSRCP was in power. Now, with the coalition government in office and revisiting old cases against those who insulted TDP and Jana Sena leaders, there's talk in AP political circles that Posani might be arrested any moment. Preparations for Sri Reddy's Arrest! Actress Sri Reddy, known for her support of YSRCP, had previously criticized TDP and Jana Sena leaders in her unique style during the last government's tenure. There were instances when she even insulted Pawan Kalyan's mother. With AP police now focusing on those who have engaged in character assassination on social media, Sri Reddy is also likely to be taken into custody soon. Various cases registered against her in different regions are being reviewed by the police. Recently, the actress released a video apologizing and requesting forgiveness from Chandrababu, Pawan Kalyan, and Home Minister Anita, pledging not to post any offensive content about them or their family members anymore. The video has become quite trending lately. Will Actions Be Taken Against Prakash Raj? Recently, a controversy erupted between Pawan Kalyan and Prakash Raj over comments related to Tirumala laddus and Sanatan Dharma. While Pawan spoke about Sanatan Dharma, Prakash Raj posed several questions on the same platform without directly naming him, using the hashtag #JustAsking. Pawan largely ignored these comments. However, Jana Sena workers and Pawan's fans are highly agitated over Prakash Raj's unrelated criticisms and are demanding action against him on social media. Currently, the AP police are revisiting old cases, and since no cases have been registered against Prakash Raj in any station, it's speculated that he might not face immediate actions.

      Prabhas: Prabhas-Anushka Pair Back in the Spotlight… Why?
      Prabhas: Prabhas-Anushka Pair Back in the Spotlight… Why?
      When it comes to the best on-screen pair in Tollywood, Prabhas and Anushka often top the list. Their chemistry has garnered a dedicated fan base, with fans frequently posting on social media wishing for them to get married. Though such rumors circulated for some time, they were eventually dismissed as unfounded. Currently, Prabhas is busy with Raja Saab while Anushka, also known as “Sweety,” is occupied with her film Ghaati. Recently, special posters were released on Prabhas’ birthday for Raja Saab and on Anushka’s birthday for Ghaati, sparking online discussions as fans noticed striking similarities between the two posters. With a Cigar in Hand… In Ghaati, where Anushka plays the female lead, she is shown in a rugged, intense look with blood on her face, smoking a cigar, surrounded by smoke. Interestingly, Prabhas’ recent Raja Saab poster also depicted him in a similar getup, holding a cigar in his mouth with a smoky effect. Fans have taken to social media, placing both posters side by side and tagging them as “King and Queen,” calling for a new film featuring the two together. https://twitter.com/subhaashiniii/status/1854377730575397055 A Fierce Anushka On Thursday morning, the makers of Ghaati released the first look of Anushka’s character, followed by a solid teaser in the evening. Unlike her previous films, Anushka appears more violent and intense, shown mercilessly decapitating someone while looking in a bus mirror. In the teaser, she is seen calmly smoking a cigar with blood-covered hands after the brutal act. This powerful role brings back memories of her impactful performances in films like Vedam and Arundhati, where she showcased her ability to take on strong, intense roles. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W5FkYULk3Ls All Hopes Pinned on Ghaati Anushka, once a leading star in the industry, is currently facing challenges in her career, with fewer opportunities alongside major stars. Although her recent film Miss Shetty Mr. Polishetty received positive feedback, it didn’t achieve the kind of success fans expected for her. Therefore, Ghaati is a crucial project for Anushka as she aims to re-establish her position in the industry. Similarly, Ghaati’s director Krish is also relying on this project for a comeback after the shelving of Hari Hara Veera Mallu. Prabhas’ Upcoming Projects Prabhas currently has a packed lineup of pan-India projects. Along with Raja Saab, he is working with Sandeep Reddy Vanga on Spirit, Nag Ashwin’s Kalki 2, Prashanth Neel’s Salaar 2, and Hanu Raghavapudi’s Fauji. He also has a special role in Manchu Vishnu’s ambitious project Kannappa. Recently, Prasanth Varma, known for HanuMan, reportedly narrated a story to Prabhas that he was highly interested in. Furthermore, discussions are ongoing for projects with Tamil director Lokesh Kanagaraj and Bollywood’s Rajkumar Hirani. With these diverse ventures, Prabhas’ career is on an unstoppable rise.

      'He's Seen Twice as Much Hatred': Trivikram's Powerful Defense of Vijay Deverakonda Goes Viral; 'Pelli Choopulu' Combo Returns!
      'He's Seen Twice as Much Hatred': Trivikram's Powerful Defense of Vijay Deverakonda Goes Viral; 'Pelli Choopulu' Combo Returns!
      Vijay Deverakonda, one of the most popular young heroes in Tollywood, enjoys unwavering fan admiration regardless of hits and misses. His rise to stardom was fueled by successful films such as 'Arjun Reddy,' 'Taxiwaala,' and 'Geetha Govindam.' However, he has been struggling with a lack of recent hits, with his last three films performing poorly at the box office. This has led to increased trolling and criticism. Recently, during a film event, director Trivikram made intriguing comments about Vijay Deverakonda, which have gone viral in Tollywood and on social media. "He has seen both adoration and hatred," At the pre-release event of Dulquer Salmaan's latest movie 'Lucky Bhaskar,' directed by Venky Atluri and set to release on October 31, Vijay Devarakonda and Trivikram were the chief guests. Trivikram praised the acting prowess of both Vijay Deverakonda and Dulquer Salmaan, calling them the great actors of this generation. He also mentioned his personal admiration for Vijay, stating, "Vijay has seen much love. But he has seen twice as much hatred. There's a line in Bal Gangadhar Tilak's novel 'The Night of Amrit' that says 'he is a great fighter.' This fits Vijay Deverakonda perfectly. Our boy is a true warrior." This comment has since become a sensation on the internet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhzeAy5OUl8 "Controversy if Khalnayak is called a flop," Vijay Deverakonda also spoke at the 'Lucky Bhaskar' pre-release event, making impactful remarks about director Trivikram. He reminisced about receiving his first paycheck from Sithara Entertainments, presented by Trivikram after the hit movie 'Pelli Choopulu,' during which Trivikram predicted his future stardom. Vijay called meeting Trivikram a significant moment in his life, expressing his admiration for Trivikram’s films like 'Manmadhudu,' 'Nuvvu Naaku Nachchaav,' and 'Jalsa.' He also stated that 'Athadu' and 'Khaleja' are among his favorites, and humorously remarked that he would fight anyone who calls 'Khaleja' a flop. https://twitter.com/oneindiatelugu/status/1850807211817369676 "Dulquer and Vijay Multistarrer," Vijay Deverakonda noted that he attended the 'Lucky Bhaskar' event for his "brother" Dulquer Salmaan. He reminded the audience of their collaboration in movies like 'Kalki' and 'Mahanati,' although they did not share scenes. He revealed that a director once considered making a multistarrer with him and Dulquer, and they even discussed the story together in Chennai, but the film never materialized. Vijay expressed hope that they might work together in the future, exciting the audience. https://twitter.com/ihsan21792/status/1850579970093129862 "Pelli Choopulu Combo Repeat," Vijay Deverakonda’s breakthrough film 'Pelli Choopulu,' directed by young director Tharun Bhascker, needs no special introduction for its success. However, the duo hasn't collaborated on another project since. Now, there's strong buzz about a new movie in the works under Tharun Bhascker’s direction with Vijay as the lead. It's said that Vijay has already heard the story and has agreed to the project, which will feature Tharun’s signature style of comedy along with action. Meanwhile, Vijay is currently involved in 'VD12,' an action thriller directed by Gowtam Tinnanuri. "Vijay’s Future Projects!" Vijay Deverakonda currently has 'VD12' and two other exciting projects in hand. After 'Family Star,' producer Dil Raju is set to produce another film with Vijay, to be directed by Ravikiran Kola. Additionally, director Rahul Sankrityan will direct another project featuring Vijay, set against a royal backdrop in the Rayalaseema region, with Rashmika Mandanna rumored to be the female lead. With news of another movie under Tharun Bhascker’s direction, expectations for Vijay’s future projects are high among fans.

      Celebrating #HBD Prabhas: 10 Lesser-Known Facts About the Baahubali Star on His Birthday!
      Celebrating #HBD Prabhas: 10 Lesser-Known Facts About the Baahubali Star on His Birthday!
      Pan-India star Prabhas has won millions of fans with his acting and his kindness. Particularly recognized for his role in 'Baahubali,' he brought Telugu cinema to a global stage. It can be said that the records created by Prabhas as a movie hero are unparalleled. Today (October 23) is Prabhas' birthday. As he steps into his 45th year, here are some intriguing details about his personal and film career for you. Average in Studies Prabhas was an average student academically. He wasn't the type to sit in class for long periods and looked forward to the drill period eagerly. He was known for skipping classes to play games. Forgetful Prabhas is somewhat forgetful. He shared in an interview that his friends used to call him 'Ghajini' since his school days. He recounted how he often forgot his pen during exams and would leave his book in one place and forget where it was. He has admitted that he has improved a bit since his childhood. 'You, a Hero?' At the beginning of his career, when Prabhas told a friend that he wanted to become a film hero, his friend laughed and said, 'You, a hero?' When he shared this with his family, they were initially shocked but later sent him to Satyanand in Visakhapatnam for training. After three months of training, he received the offer for 'Eeswar.' The Reason Behind the Darling Call Prabhas frequently uses the word 'Darling' to address his friends and close ones. He explained that he feels uncomfortable calling someone brother or 'anna,' which is why he prefers calling them 'Darling.' Noticing this, director Puri Jagannadh popularized this nickname through the film 'Bujjigadu,' and it became even more popular with the movie 'Darling.' Guest Roles The Rebel Star Prabhas appeared in a guest role in the Hindi movie 'Action Jackson' (2014) directed by dance master Prabhu Deva starring Ajay Devgn. In the song 'Punjabi Mast,' he danced alongside Sonakshi Sinha. Decades later, he is set to appear in a guest role in the movie 'Kannappa' and gave a voice-over for the movie 'Denikaina Ready.' Two Films with His Uncle The late actor Krishnam Raju was Prabhas’ uncle, and Prabhas entered the industry as his heir. Prabhas deeply admired his uncle and acted with him in films like 'Billa' and 'Rebel.' Prabhas often shares that these two films provided him with many sweet memories. Thrice With Each In his career, Prabhas has acted in the most films with two heroines, Trisha and Anushka, sharing the screen three times each. He starred with Trisha in 'Bujjigadu,' 'Varsham,' and 'Pournami.' With Anushka, he acted in 'Billa,' 'Mirchi,' and 'Baahubali.' The First South Indian Hero Prabhas was the first South Indian hero to have a wax statue at the prestigious Madame Tussauds in the 'Baahubali' getup. Following him, Tollywood stars Mahesh Babu, Allu Arjun, and recently Ram Charan have achieved this honor. If Not an Actor... Prabhas once expressed that working with the famous Bollywood director Rajkumar Hirani would be a dream come true. If he had not been an actor, he mentioned that he would have settled in the hotel business.

      Ananya Nagalla: Shocking Comments on Commitment in the Industry
      Ananya Nagalla: Shocking Comments on Commitment in the Industry
      Ananya Nagalla is one of the few Telugu actresses in Tollywood. She made her debut as a heroine with the movie "Mallesham" and has since been captivating Telugu audiences with her performances in a string of films, both as a main heroine and as a character artist. Her latest movie, "Pottel," is set to release soon. In light of this, the makers held a trailer launch event, which Ananya attended. After the trailer launch, a press meet was held where Ananya faced an unexpected question, and her striking response has gone viral online. What happened? At the trailer launch event of her latest movie "Pottel" in Hyderabad, the trailer was released by the well-known actress Samyuktha Menon. During the subsequent press meet, a female reporter questioned Ananya about the casting couch. "They ask for commitment before giving a movie chance to a heroine or an artist, right? What do you say about this? Have you ever faced it?" Ananya responded, "How can you say for sure that they ask for commitment? There’s nothing like that." The reporter continued, "But isn’t the commitment included in the signed agreement? That's what your industry friends told me." Ananya replied, "That’s 100% wrong. I have never faced such a thing. It doesn’t exist." https://twitter.com/tfpcin/status/1847262295266865248 You See Only the Negative: Ananya Ananya remarked that just like in life, there are both negative and positive aspects in the industry. She criticized the reporter for focusing only on the negative, calling the notion that opportunities are given in exchange for commitments "bullshit." The reporter added, "The industry people say there is one rate if you give a commitment, and another if you don’t." Ananya responded, "You’re saying this without any experience, but I am speaking from experience. There is no such commitment here." The video of this exchange is currently going viral online. Producer of Mallesham Fires Back at Reporter Netizens are upset over the manner in which the female reporter questioned Ananya. With the video going viral, "Mallesham" producer Venkat Sidda Reddy also responded, criticizing the reporter’s inappropriate question and posted a lengthy post about the precautions taken for Ananya’s safety during the shooting of "Mallesham." He condemned the reporter’s actions, saying it was completely unnecessary in a movie promotion event and praised Ananya for her apt response. Ananya thanked Venkat Sidda Reddy for his support in this matter. https://twitter.com/AnanyaNagalla/status/1847503625607680498 In-Flight Promotions by Ananya Ananya Nagalla starred alongside Chandra Krishna in the movie "Pottel," set for a grand release on the 25th of this month.

She distributed movie posters and leaflets to the passengers, urging them to support their film. The "Pottel" team also participated in this promotional event. A video related to this innovative promotion has gone viral, earning posts from netizens applauding Ananya's pioneering approach to promotions. https://twitter.com/wareymedia/status/1846883443424272530

      Sudheer Babu's 'Maa Nanna Super Hero' Takes Promotions to a Whole New Level with Clever Celebrity Cameos
      Promotions play a critical role in making a movie accessible to the audience. Effective campaigns generate massive hype and increase audience anticipation to watch the movie. That's why makers organize special events to promote their films, including audio functions, interviews, and social media announcements. This week, the movie "Maa Nanna Super Hero," starring young hero Sudheer Babu, is set to release. In this context, the movie team has initiated unique promotions that are garnering a special response. Netizens are wondering how such innovative ideas come about, commenting enthusiastically on these promotions. Crazy Promotions! Sudheer Babu, a notable young hero in Tollywood, recently appeared in the film "Harom Hara" and is now set to entertain with another movie. Directed by Abhilash Reddy, "Maa Nanna Super Hero" is scheduled to release on October 11. The movie team has unveiled unique promotions that feature celebrities unknowingly participating while taking photos, ensuring that the movie banner is visible. Young heroes like Varun Tej and Manchu Manoj, along with star director Sukumar, have all unintentionally become part of these innovative promotions, leading to notable online reactions. Netizens are amused, noting how cleverly the stars were involved, praising the simple and natural appeal of the campaign.

      Rajinikanth's 'Vettaiyan' Sparks Outrage: Telugu Fans Call for Boycott Over Title Controversy!
      Rajinikanth's 'Vettaiyan' Sparks Outrage: Telugu Fans Call for Boycott Over Title Controversy!
      Rajinikanth, a hero who has earned fans beyond linguistic barriers, enjoys a national following. Known for his style and dialogue delivery, Rajinikanth still drives fans wild. Naturally, the upcoming movie 'Vettaiyan' is creating significant buzz nationwide and is set to release grandly as a Dussehra gift on October 10. However, the movie's title has sparked severe outrage among the Telugu audience, leading to the trending hashtag #BoycottVettaiyanInTelugu on X. ‘Are Telugu Viewers Considered Inferior?’ The film 'Vettaiyan,' directed by T.J. Gnanavel with Rajinikanth as an encounter specialist, is titled in Tamil and was directly used in Telugu as well. This move has upset the Telugu audience, who question why the title wasn’t adapted to Telugu as 'Vetagadu,' despite the availability of an appropriate Telugu term. They feel slighted, asking if only Tamil deserves such respect and not Telugu. Netizens are actively calling to boycott 'Vettaiyan,' indicating a strong discontent with ignoring Telugu language preferences. https://twitter.com/thenaani29/status/1843888854568431666 https://twitter.com/Kadirodu/status/1843694483508211884 https://twitter.com/kannayyaX/status/1843899836732743696 https://twitter.com/Jyotheshkum/status/1843844509123391639 It's the same with those movies! Telugu audiences are known for supporting movies regardless of the language if the story is good. There are many instances where Tamil films that flopped in Tamil Nadu became super hits in Telugu. Previously, dubbing movies used to be given Telugu titles, and signs in other languages were nicely translated into Telugu. Now, they have stopped doing that and are releasing movies directly. Titles like 'Kanguva', 'Vettaiyan', 'Thangalaan', 'Raayan', 'Valimai' are being brought to Telugu with the same Tamil names, and Telugu audiences are severely criticizing this practice. They comment that proper Telugu titles could easily be given. It's clear that Telugu audiences will not support those who do not respect the Telugu language. No need for Telugu language? In the past, when Tamil movies were released in Telugu, directors like Mani Ratnam used to get Telugu dialogues and songs written to give the feel of watching a direct Telugu movie. We have seen well-titled films like 'Gharshana', 'Sakhi', 'Yuva', and 'Cheliya'. However, this practice has changed now. There is a lack of attention to dubbing and songs, and the essence of Tamil prevails. Even with titles, the care is minimal. Cinema analysts are surprised that even a star like Rajinikanth did not object to the title 'Vettaiyan'. Telugu audiences are complaining vehemently, wanting the revenue but not the language.

      Kali Movie Review: Prince and Naresh Agastya Shine in a Gripping Yet Flawed Drama
      Kali Movie Review: Prince and Naresh Agastya Shine in a Gripping Yet Flawed Drama
      Cast: Prince, Naresh Agastya, Neha Krishnan, C.V.L. Narasimha Rao, Mani Chandana, Kedar Shankar, Madhumani, Gundu Sudarshan, and others Director: Shiva Shesha Music: Jeevan Babu Cinematographer: Ramana Jagarlamudi Editor: Vijay Vardhan Kavuri Producer: T. Leela Goutham Release Date: 04-10-2024 The latest film starring Prince and Naresh Agastya is 'Kali', directed by Shiva Shesha. Neha Krishnan, C.V.L. Narasimha Rao, Mani Chandana, Kedar Shankar, and Madhumani also play significant roles. This film, developed with a unique concept, was released to the audience on October 4. Let's see how the movie is and whether it captivated the Telugu audience in this review. What's the Story? Shivaram (Prince) is a professor at a university who never refuses to help anyone. This quality endears him to Veda (Neha Krishnan), who falls in love with him and confronts her family to marry him. However, Shivaram's goodwill is exploited by his own family members, who conspire to take his property. Betrayed by his brother and uncle, Shivaram becomes deeply disillusioned and attempts suicide, wishing not to be reborn as a human. At this critical moment, Kali Purusha (Naresh Agastya) makes his entry. Just as Shivaram is about to commit suicide, Kali Purusha rings the calling bell and saves him. What changes does Kali bring into Shivaram’s life? What is the connection between Shivaram’s life and the era of Kali? To find out, one must go to the theaters. How Did They Perform? In a refreshing new role as Shivaram, Prince excels with settled acting. Even in scenes without dialogue, his expressions were enough to impress. He made an effort to define himself as an actor by intensifying the scenes. Naresh Agastya shone as Kali, captivating with his stylish performance. The film primarily revolves around these two characters. Neha Krishnan was compelling as Veda within the limits of her role. Other cast members also justified their roles. How's the Direction? Director Shiva Shesha made an attempt to convey that suicide is not a solution to problems and that it is the real problem through this film. Although he chose a message-oriented narrative, he did not neglect commercial elements. He made the story engaging by blending suspense and thriller elements effectively. The movie starts with Shivaram’s background, his family life, love track, and betrayal by family members. The director sped up the story with the arrival of Agastya as Kali. The way Agastya questions Shivaram and tries to show him his mistakes is appealing. The scenes that instill a will to live are spectacular, especially the interactions between Prince and Naresh Agastya. However, the story might feel dragged and centered too much around two characters, and the lack of comedy could be seen as a downside. Technically On the technical front, the music is a major strength. Jeevan Babu's background score notably elevates the scenes. The editing could have been sharper. The cinematography is good, and the visuals are rich. The production values are also high, befitting the film.

Govind Raju Produced by: Jyothika, Suriya Release Date: 28-09-2024 In the C. Prem Kumar directorial, starring Tamil star hero Karthi who previously delighted audiences with feel-good movies like '96', the film titled 'Meiyazhagan' in Tamil, has been brought to the Telugu audience as 'Satyam Sundaram'. Aravind Swamy plays a pivotal role in this film, which is notably produced under the banner of 2D Entertainment by Suriya and Jyothika. Released today (September 28), how does this film fare? Did it manage to impress the audience? Let's delve into the review. What's the Story Satyam (Aravind Swamy), hailing from Guntur, leaves his home and village due to property disputes and relocates to Visakhapatnam. After 30 years, a situation arises requiring him to return to his village for his niece’s wedding. Upon his return, Satyam reconnects with a relative (Karthi) at the wedding. Calling each other 'Bava' (brother-in-law), they bond over numerous conversations. Initially irritated by Karthi’s intrusive manners, Satyam eventually warms up to his affection and admiration. What turns does their journey take? How does Satyam rediscover himself through this journey? What is the nature of his relationship with the person he calls 'Bava'? Does he finally remember his name, or not? That forms the rest of the story. How Did They Perform Aravind Swamy perfectly embodies Satyam, taking us along on his journey through his remarkable performance. We feel every emotion that Satyam experiences, from his pain to his discomfort. Karthi charms once again with his innocence, captivating as a typical young man from a village showing boundless love. This role will be remembered as a highlight in Karthi’s career. Devadarshini, playing the wife of Aravind Swamy, delivers a commendable performance. Having previously only played comedic and supporting roles, she proves her ability to handle a role with depth with ease. Srividya, Rajkiran, and Jayaprakash, although in minor roles, significantly impact the story. The rest of the cast performed well within their roles. Direction The director, C. Prem Kumar, attempts to convey that for a person to live happily, the presence of a loving individual is as necessary as money and fame. The film starts intriguingly, showing why Satyam left his village. His return for a wedding, the introduction of Karthi’s character, his mischief, and the troubles Satyam faces with Karthi unknowingly, are all portrayed entertainingly. The director shifts the setting to Karthi’s home, where Satyam’s experiences are heartfelt and take the audience back in time. The mental turmoil Satyam goes through upon not recognizing Karthi adds weight to the narrative. The climax is also well-executed. The film, like a beautiful novel, successfully comes to life on screen, directed flawlessly by Kumar. The slow pace of the story and lack of commercial elements could be seen as drawbacks. Technically On the technical front, the background music adds an additional layer of allure to the story, with a continual melody that enhances the emotional depth of the narrative. The visuals are captivating, and the production values are high.

      Nandamuri Family's Support for Siddhu Jonnalagadda and Vishwak Sen: A Strategic Move in Tollywood?
      Nandamuri Family's Support for Siddhu Jonnalagadda and Vishwak Sen: A Strategic Move in Tollywood?
      Among the young Telugu heroes who have gained a good following among the youth, Siddhu Jonnalagadda and Vishwak Sen are at the forefront. Both these young heroes are currently riding high with a series of successes. Interestingly, they are receiving significant support from the Nandamuri family. Balakrishna and Junior NTR have been actively encouraging these young heroes, drawing attention by participating in their film promotions. While it is common for senior actors to support young talents in the industry, there seems to be a strong reason behind why Tarak and Balayya are backing Siddhu and Vishwak specifically. Let’s delve into the reasons behind this in this article. Getting Close to the Young Heroes Megastar Chiranjeevi has always been at the forefront in encouraging young actors. Now, Nandamuri Balakrishna and Junior NTR have joined this list. They are supporting young actors like Vishwak Sen and Siddhu Jonnalagadda. Recently, as part of a promotional event, Tarak conducted a special interview with these two heroes, along with director Koratala Siva. The interview garnered a lot of hype. Earlier, Tarak attended the success meet of a film starring Siddhu as the chief guest, where Vishwak was also present. Tarak created a buzz by taking photos with both of them. Recently, Balakrishna also met these two heroes, and they donated the amount they had announced for Vijayawada flood relief together with Balayya. Earlier, during the pre-release event of another film, Balakrishna praised Vishwak, calling them twins. Whenever there’s an opportunity, Tarak and Balayya are always seen supporting Siddhu and Vishwak. Is There a Master Plan? With many young heroes in the industry like Vijay Deverakonda, Adivi Sesh, Naveen Polishetty, Nikhil, and Kiran Abbavaram, there are speculations on why Balakrishna and Tarak are encouraging only Vishwak and Siddhu. There’s talk in the film circles that the industry is currently divided into two camps – Mega and Non-Mega. The Mega family has over half a dozen heroes, many of whom openly declare their admiration for Megastar. With this in mind, it seems the Nandamuri family is trying to create a group of their own by encouraging the upcoming stars like Vishwak and Siddhu, who have publicly expressed their admiration for the Nandamuri family several times, especially their fondness for Tarak. Tarak and Balakrishna appear to be keen on supporting them to form a group of their own. Competing with Allu Arjun! Allu Arjun has been supporting Vijay Deverakonda and his brothers right from the beginning. Their bond started with the film "Arjun Reddy" and has continued since then. Last year, Bunny attended the promotion event of a movie produced by Vijay’s brother. During a controversy involving the film "Baby," where Vishwak was caught in the middle, Allu Arjun’s indirect comments reportedly put a lot of pressure on Vishwak. However, with Tarak’s support, Vishwak managed to get through the issue. While Tarak and Bunny share a good friendship, it seems they are forming their own groups by supporting different young heroes individually, according to film analysts. Vishwak and Siddhu’s Upcoming Projects Vishwak is currently busy with two films. He is working on "Mechanic Rocky" directed by Raviteja Mullapudi, where Meenakshi Chaudhary plays the female lead. The film is shaping up to be a comedy-action entertainer, with its second song recently released. Vishwak is also acting in the film "Laila," directed by Ramnarayan, where he will be seen playing a female role. Apart from these, he is set to start projects "VS13" and "VS14" soon. On the other hand, Siddhu Jonnalagadda has three exciting projects lined up. He is working on "Jack" and "Telusu Kada." After these, "Tillu Cube" will also go on the sets.
