Priyanka Mohan's Journey from Engineer to South Cinema Star: Celebrating Her Rise on Her Birthday!
Priyanka Arul Mohan is among the leading actresses from South India. Having faced many challenges at the start of her career, she is now continuing as a star heroine. She has earned a unique recognition for herself by acting alongside star heroes like Suriya, Dhanush, Nani, Sivakarthikeyan, and Jayam Ravi. Currently, she is catching everyone's eye by acting in 'OG' alongside Pawan. Today is Priyanka Mohan's birthday (HBD Priyanka Mohan), marking her entry into the 29th year. Let’s take this opportunity to learn some interesting aspects of her career.
Priyanka Mohan was born on November 20, 1995, in Bangalore, the capital of Karnataka, where she also completed her education, earning a degree in Biological Engineering.
Priyanka's mother is Kannadiga while her father is of Tamil descent, which made her proficient in both Kannada and Tamil.
During her engineering studies, Priyanka participated in several plays and acted in two or three commercials.
Priyanka revealed in an interview that her friends pooled money to make a movie with her during that time.
She clarified that her first Kannada film was 'Ondu Kathe Hella,' but she didn’t tell her family she was making the film.
After its release, her family was shocked to see Priyanka in the film but didn't say a word and instead encouraged her.
Despite her interest in acting, Priyanka never thought about entering films; she dreamed of securing a good job.
If she hadn’t entered the industry, Priyanka mentioned she would have been working in a reputable corporate firm by now.
Priyanka made her Telugu debut with 'Gang Leaders.' On her first day of shooting, seeing veteran actors like Lakshmi and Saranya made her very nervous.
She questioned her worthiness of acting with such accomplished actors and directly asked the director Vikram if he had made a hasty decision in casting her.
From a young age, Priyanka admired Suriya. She was thrilled to get a chance to act with him in 'ET.' After shooting, when Suriya sent her a gift, she excitedly posted it on Instagram.
Priyanka is known for her gentle nature, speaks very little wherever she goes, and has very few friends.
She admires actresses like Nithya Menen, Anushka, and Nazriya, and loves their acting, as she has mentioned on multiple occasions.
Unlike other actresses who might take off on vacations if there’s a shooting gap, Priyanka prefers to rest at home or engage in her favorite activities during her free time, occasionally going on trips.
Getting up early in the morning is quite challenging for Priyanka, and she admitted in an interview that she used to be very lazy about exercising in the early days of her career.
Priyanka is an excellent cook, especially of chicken dishes, which she claims to prepare very deliciously.
View this post on Instagram A post shared by Priyanka Mohan (@priyankaamohanofficial)
She emphasized that her day must start with a cup of coffee; without it, her day doesn't start at all.
Priyanka tries to be the same off-screen as she appears in films, preferring traditional roles over glamorous ones.
In Telugu, she has acted in 'Gang Leader,' 'Sreekaram,' and recently in Saripodhaa Sanivaaram,' and is currently acting with Pawan in 'OG.'
In Tamil, she has worked with Sivakarthikeyan in 'Doctor' and 'Don,' and with Dhanush in 'Captain Miller,' all of which were also dubbed into Telugu.

David Warner's Bollywood Dream: From Cricket Star to Telugu Movie Sensation?
Australian star cricketer David Warner, apart from being known for his cricket, has gained recognition as an actor on social media too. He has surprised everyone in the past by making reels of various dialogues and songs related to Telugu movies. Videos of him imitating heroes like Allu Arjun, Prabhas, and Mahesh Babu had become trending on social media previously. Recently retired from international cricket, Warner is said to be stepping into films, starting with a Telugu movie, as per the buzz online.
'Pushpa 2' in a Key Role!
In the pan-India film 'Pushpa 2', directed by Sukumar with Allu Arjun as the hero, news is swirling on social media that former Australian cricketer David Warner is playing a special role. A still involving Warner, surrounded by professional bouncers, is circulating online. In this photo, Warner, dressed in a white outfit, is seen stylishly holding a gun. Netizens speculate that this look is from 'Pushpa 2'. However, there's no confirmation from the makers of 'Pushpa 2' yet, but Warner's fans are hoping this news is true.
https://twitter.com/AuTelugu_Films/status/1837406285702074497
Sukumar's Plan?
David Warner has a special connection with 'Pushpa' (Pushpa: The Rise), starring Icon Star Allu Arjun. The song 'Srivalli' from this movie was a huge hit across India, and Warner had also made reels to it which went viral back then. Moreover, Warner had repeatedly mimicked Allu Arjun's signature style on the field, endearing him to the Telugu audience. Given this background, there's information that director Sukumar intends to leverage Warner's popularity in 'Pushpa 2'. If this is true, it’s a guaranteed chance to see Warner in 'Pushpa 2'.

https://twitter.com/AAAdmirersKL/status/1516976589069701121
Close to IPL
Telugu cricket fans respect Warner as much as they do Team India players. Warner served as the captain for Sunrisers Hyderabad in the IPL and even led the team to an IPL trophy win. This support from Telugu fans is substantial. Warner reciprocated by dancing to Telugu songs and quoting movie dialogues in his reels, thus becoming closer to the Telugu folks. He has often expressed his love for Hyderabad and its people, mentioning how much he misses Hyderabad. Many are hoping that Sunrisers Hyderabad will pick Warner again in the IPL 2025 mega auction.
Ad Shoot with Rajamouli
For a popular payments app CRED, Rajamouli and David Warner once acted together in a humorous ad. In the opening of the ad, Rajamouli asks Warner what needs to be done to get discounts on match tickets. Warner replies, "Raja sir.. if you have the CRED UPI app, you get cashback." Rajamouli responds, asking if it wouldn’t work with a normal UPI app, prompting Warner to ask for a favor to act in his movie, wondering what it would be like if Warner truly starred as a hero in his film. Imagining Warner in a Baahubali-like getup causing mischief and performing dance steps and dialogues, Rajamouli is momentarily frightened. This ad had gone extremely viral at the time. Watch it again here.

Devara Promotions: Are Devara Promotions Not Heading in the Right Direction? Is Tollywood Being Neglected?
The movie "Devara," directed by star director Koratala Siva and starring the 'Man of Masses' Tarak, has created a Pan-India buzz. Following a global hit like 'RRR,' Tarak's new film has been eagerly awaited by both his fans and cinema lovers. With the film set to release on September 27, the Devara team is busy with promotions. However, the focus on the North Indian market has led to dissatisfaction among the Telugu audience. So far, none of the promotional events for Devara have originated from the Telugu states, raising concerns that the Devara team is neglecting Tollywood.
Trolls on Chennai Promotions
As part of its promotions, the Devara team landed in Chennai on Tuesday (September 17). The event featured Tarak, along with actress Janhvi Kapoor, director Koratala Siva, music director Anirudh, and Tamil actor Kalaiyarasan. During this, Tarak expressed his desire to work with Tamil director Vetrimaaran, which although captivated the Tamil audience, left Telugu cinema lovers feeling slighted. Trolls are questioning why a star like Tarak would request a Tamil director to make a movie with him, suggesting he is diminishing his own stature.
Devara Team on The Kapil Sharma Show!
The Devara team has also been conducting back-to-back promotions in Mumbai, attempting to hype up the movie. As part of this, Tarak appeared on the very popular 'The Kapil Sharma Show Season 2.' Being a major Bollywood star, it’s almost obligatory to appear on this show, which has a fan base that transcends regional boundaries. Bollywood stars believe that appearing on this show greatly boosts their movie promotions. During the 'RRR' promotions, Rajamouli, Tarak, and Ram Charan had made an appearance on this show. Recently, Tarak revisited the show for Devara, along with Janhvi Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Saif Ali Khan. The promo, which also features Team India captain Rohit Sharma & Co, has been captivating. This episode is scheduled to stream on Netflix at 8 PM on September 21.

Tarak in Hindi Bigg Boss 18?
The Hindi Bigg Boss show enjoys significant popularity. With Salman Khan hosting the upcoming Hindi Bigg Boss Season 18, there is strong buzz that the Devara team will promote their movie on the show. Official confirmation from the Devara team is pending, but it is evident from the current strategy that Tarak & Co. are not missing any opportunity for promotions in the North. Bigg Boss 18 is set to stream starting October 4, by which time Devara will have already been released. It remains to be seen if the Devara team will participate in Hindi Bigg Boss.
Interview with Animal Director
Recently, the Devara team was interviewed by Animal director Sandeep Reddy Vanga. The chat session, which included Tarak, director Koratala Siva, Saif Ali Khan, and Janhvi Kapoor, was notably entertaining. Sandeep posed some intriguing questions to the Devara team, to which Janhvi and Tarak responded in their unique styles. Tarak mentioned that Devara is an action drama that will thrill the masses. Koratala Siva spoke about his long-standing friendship with Tarak, and the team mentioned that they had spent 35 days filming an underwater sequence. Janhvi claimed Devara would be the best movie in everyone’s careers. Sandeep playfully commented on the movie's runtime, and when asked how long it was, he said with a laugh that it was 3 hours and 24 minutes. Despite Sandeep Reddy Vanga being a Telugu director, the entire interview was conducted in English, which has left Telugu viewers unable to connect. Click the link below for the full interview.

Where Are the Tollywood Promotions?
Lately, the Devara team has been focused predominantly on Bollywood, believing that effective promotions there could translate into significant box office returns. Even the movie’s key trailer was released in Mumbai. There have been comments suggesting it would be beneficial to similarly promote the movie in Telugu, given Tarak’s star image and expected box office pull in Telugu-speaking regions. Compared to the promotions conducted in the North, there seems to be little planning for significant promotional activities in Telugu. Fans are surprised that young heroes Siddhu and Vishwak are interviewing NTR and Koratala, raising questions about the level of NTR’s engagement. There are criticisms that leveraging his close relationships with big names like Mahesh, Prabhas, and Rajamouli for interviews would have been more beneficial for Telugu promotions. The interview Rajamouli conducted with the 'Salaar' team is often cited as an example. So far, the focus on Bollywood in promotions has been strongly criticized for overshadowing efforts in Tollywood. How the Devara team will address this remains to be seen.

Venkat Prabhu Faces Backlash Over Telugu Audience Criticism After 'The Goat' Underperforms
The latest film starring Kollywood star hero Vijay, titled 'The Goat' (The Greatest Of All Time), released on September 5 and has been a massive hit in Tamil Nadu, even crossing the Rs. 300 crore mark with impressive overseas collections. However, the film seems to be facing strong resistance in the Telugu and Hindi markets. In this context, the film's director Venkat Prabhu responded, sparking a heated debate on social media.
'That's Why They Didn't Like It'
In Telugu and Hindi, 'The Goat' (The Greatest Of All Time) did not meet the expected levels of success. Mythri Movie Makers, a prominent production company, purchased the film for Rs. 22 crores in Telugu, but so far, it has only grossed Rs. 10 crores. Current circumstances suggest that even breaking even may be difficult. Against this backdrop, director Venkat Prabhu took to social media to express his views. He suggested that scenes related to Chennai Super Kings and MS Dhoni, which were highlights, did not resonate well with Telugu and Hindi audiences, which might be why the film underperformed in these regions. He also accused fans of the IPL teams from Mumbai and Bangalore of excessively trolling his film, attributing this to his known fandom of Chennai Super Kings. Venkat Prabhu's comments have become a hot topic on social media.
https://twitter.com/TheAakashavaani/status/1833133203697131918
Telugu Audience Fires Back..!
Telugu audiences are strongly criticizing Venkat Prabhu's recent comments. They are posting online that there are other reasons for 'The Goat's disaster performance in Telugu. Comments suggest that if the content is good, they support films irrespective of the industry. They remind the director of the massive success his previous film 'Maanaadu' had in Telugu, indicating that MS Dhoni also has a huge fanbase in the Telugu states, with stadiums filling up in yellow jerseys whenever a CSK match is played in Hyderabad. They are requesting that the actual reasons for 'The Goat's failure be investigated.
Reasons for the Flop in Telugu Are These!
Director Venkat Prabhu made 'The Goat' with a routine story where Vijay played dual roles as father and son. Despite the terrorism backdrop, it lacked the twists typically seen in agent films. There were no twists or turns in the story, and even the operations conducted by the hero lacked thrill. Additionally, unnecessary songs and Yogi Babu's comedy track tested the patience of the Telugu audience. However, the action sequences and the IPL track in the climax managed to generate some excitement.
Dhoni Said No!
'The Goat' featured many cameo roles. Sivakarthikeyan and Trisha appeared as guests, and India's former cricket captain MS Dhoni was also shown during the climax using IPL visuals. Director Venkat Prabhu originally intended to have a scene with Dhoni in the film, but since Dhoni did not agree, they had to resort to using IPL visuals. The 20-minute climax episode captivated cricket lovers immensely.
Furious Over Negative Reviews
Director Venkat Prabhu responded to the negative reviews of 'The Goat.' "People don't talk about the effort we put into making the film. Some intentionally post negative comments. We included references in the film not found in any other movie, all to celebrate every hero fan. The film wasn't made just for the guest appearances but was crafted to include everything audiences desire. We made this film for the audience, not the reviewers," he stated.

Telugu IPL Players: Telugu cricketers in Cricket from IPL's Inception to Present
[toc]
Cricket is the first sport that comes to mind in India, cutting across barriers of caste, religion, language, and region, and is embraced by individuals from every stratum of society. Cricketers are often idolized like celebrities, their popularity reaching stellar heights. The affection and admiration for cricketers representing Team India are immense. Icons like Sachin Tendulkar, M.S. Dhoni, Rohit Sharma, and Virat Kohli enjoy fan bases both domestically and internationally. The representation of players from the Telugu regions in such a pivotal sport has been on the rise. There was a time when the name of a Telugu cricketer would primarily evoke the memory of V.V.S. Laxman and Mohammed Azharuddin. Today, however, the scenario has evolved. Several young talents from the Telugu states are emerging on the national scene, with many already having earned recognition and success playing for India. This exclusive report by YouSay highlights the journey and achievements of these athletes in cricket.
Nitish Kumar Reddy
Telugu cricketer Nitish Kumar Reddy burst onto the scene during the 2024 IPL season. Playing for Sunrisers Hyderabad, Nitish has showcased exceptional skills in batting, bowling, and fielding. He has established himself as a dependable all-rounder, particularly shining in critical moments of the game.
Background
Nitish Kumar Reddy was born on May 26, 2003, in Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh, into a lower middle-class family. His father, Muthyala Reddy, was previously employed at Hindustan Zinc. Nitish began playing cricket at just five years old. Inspired by watching matches at the Hindustan Zinc company grounds and starting with a plastic ball, he was encouraged by his father to pursue cricket professionally. Early in his career, Nitish attended training camps at the Visakhapatnam ground and later joined the ACA Academy in Kadapa. With the support of former chief selector M.S.K. Prasad further developed his cricketing skills.
First Class Cricket
As an opening batsman in age-group cricket and a medium pacer, Nitish Kumar Reddy has shown considerable prowess. He played for the Under-19 B team, where he effectively displayed his cricketing skills. Nitish made his first-class debut during the 2019-20 Ranji season. Since then, he has participated in 7 matches, amassing one century and one half-century, for a total of 366 runs. In List A cricket, representing the Andhra team, Nitish has played 22 matches, batting in 15 innings and scoring 403 runs with an average of 36.63, which includes 25 fours and 21 sixes. His highest score is 60 not out. In the List A T20 format, he has played 14 matches, scoring 311 runs with a commendable average of 38.87 and a top score of 76 not out. Additionally, his bowling record in List A includes 14 wickets in 22 matches, with an economy rate of 5.81.
Turning Point
The selection for the IPL marked a significant turning point in Nitish Kumar Reddy's career. After his impressive performances in first-class cricket, he was drafted by the Sunrisers franchise in 2023 for a base price of Rs. 20 lakhs. Though he saw limited opportunities in his debut season, the Sunrisers had specific plans for him as a finisher in the following season. In a critical match against Chennai (CSK vs SRH), Nitish was positioned in the lower middle order and scored 14 runs off 8 balls, contributing to his team's victory. Encouraged by his potential, the Sunrisers management promoted him up the batting order in a subsequent match against Punjab. Taking full advantage of this opportunity, Nitish quickly scored a half-century, amassing 64 runs from 37 balls, which included 4 fours and 5 sixes, proving invaluable to his team. This performance notably enhanced his visibility on the national stage and became a pivotal moment in his cricketing journey.
IPL Performance
So far, in the IPL, Nitish Kumar Reddy has played 10 matches, scoring 239 runs at an average of 47.80 and a strike rate of 154.23, including two half-centuries. These statistics are all from this season. Though he played only two matches in the previous season, his bowling was limited. Reviewing his IPL bowling stats, he has taken 3 wickets in 9 matches, conceding 124 runs for 73 runs scored against him, with best bowling figures of 2/17.
Future Team India All-Rounder
There has always been a demand for pace all-rounders in Team India. After Hardik Pandya, the BCCI is on the lookout for a suitable pace all-rounder. Observers analyzing Nitish's batting style, variety in bowling, and dynamic fielding suggest that he is a suitable candidate for this role. Consistent performance in tournaments and maintaining fitness could soon see Nitish donning the Team India jersey. Sports experts predict that Nitish will evolve as a future all-rounder for Team India.

Tilak Varma
Another rising young Telugu cricketer seen as a beacon of hope for Team India is 'Tilak Varma.' After V.V.S. Laxman, there was a felt absence of a dedicated Telugu batsman in Team India, a void that lingered for a while. However, the emergence of Tilak Varma (Telugu IPL Players) has shifted that narrative. This young cricketer has demonstrated his prowess in the IPL and while playing for Team India, showcasing his capabilities not only in batting but also in taking key wickets occasionally with his bowling.
Background
Tilak Varma was born on November 8, 2002, in Hyderabad. His father, Namburi Nagaraju, is an electrician, and his mother, Gayatri Devi, is a housewife.

Tilak started playing cricket with a tennis ball at the age of 11 and received training at the Legal Cricket Academy in Lingampally.
First-Class Cricket
Tilak Varma made his debut for the Hyderabad team in the 2018-19 Ranji Trophy season. In that tournament, Tilak played 7 matches and scored 215 runs at a strike rate of 147.26, showcasing his potential. He also played well in the 2019-20 Vijay Hazare Trophy, scoring 180 runs in 5 matches. His performances in the Under 19 World Cup in 2020 and the Vijay Hazare Trophy in 2021-22 caught the attention of IPL franchises.
https://twitter.com/JioCinema/status/1782432666161123633
IPL Performance
During the 2022 IPL auction, the Mumbai Indians acquired Tilak Varma. Starting with a base price of Rs. 20 lakhs, he was ultimately purchased for Rs. 1.7 crores. In just his second appearance of that season, Tilak made a striking impact by scoring 61 runs off 31 balls. In the 2023 IPL season, he continued to impress by scoring 84 runs from 46 balls in a match against the Royal Challengers Bangalore. Over the 2022 season, Tilak participated in 14 matches and amassed 397 runs, maintaining an average of 36.09. His form persisted into the 2023 season, during which he played 11 matches and scored 343 runs at an average of 42.88. In the ongoing 17th IPL season, Tilak has continued his consistent performance, playing 11 matches and scoring 347 runs at an average of 38.56 and a strike rate of 151.53.

In his second T20, he scored his first half-century for India. Later in 2022, Tilak was selected for the Ireland tour and represented India at the Asian Games in China the same year. Based on his IPL performances, everyone expected Tilak Varma to be selected for the T20 World Cup, but unfortunately, he was not.

Mohammed Siraj
Mohammed Siraj is an outstanding fast bowler representing Team India from the Telugu states. Siraj, who faced numerous challenges at the start of his career, has quickly established himself as a bowler for Team India with his bowling talent. Currently, he is considered one of the top pacers in the Indian team, second only to Jasprit Bumrah in capability. It is no exaggeration to say that Siraj has also been selected for the upcoming T20 World Cup.
Background
Mohammed Siraj was born into a modest family in Toli Chowki, Hyderabad, on March 13, 1994. His father, Mohammed Ghouse, drove an auto for a living. Siraj did not receive any formal coaching during his childhood. He practiced his bowling at the local Eidgah Maidan. Possessing good pace and swing in his bowling, he was selected for the HCA Division League. His performance there led to his selection for the Hyderabad Under-23 team.
First-Class Cricket
Siraj showed his prowess in the Under-23 team and was selected for the Hyderabad Ranji Trophy team in 2016. He made a significant impact in the tournament, overwhelming opposition batsmen with his skill. Siraj’s bowling helped the Hyderabad team, part of Group-C, to reach the quarterfinals. Notably, he took 41 wickets at an average of 18.92 in that tournament. His performances earned him a spot in the Rest of India team for the Irani Trophy.
IPL Performance
Siraj’s exceptional performance in the Ranji Trophy paved the way for his IPL career. In the 2017 IPL auction, Sunrisers Hyderabad bought him for Rs. 2.6 crores. In that season, he played 9 matches for Hyderabad, taking 41 wickets, and became the highest wicket-taker for the team. However, after a less notable performance in the 2017-18 season, Sunrisers released him. In the 2018 auction, Royal Challengers Bangalore bought him for Rs. 2.20 crores. Since then, Siraj has been a key bowler for RCB. As of now, he has played 89 IPL matches, taking 86 wickets with an economy rate of 8.63.
Team India Performance
Following his IPL stint, Siraj was directly picked for the India-A team, where coach Rahul Dravid further honed his skills. In a one-off unofficial Test during the South Africa-A tour, he took five wickets (5/103). He performed commendably in matches against South Africa-A, Afghanistan-A, and New Zealand-A, representing India-A. These performances led to his selection for the Indian team for the T20 series against New Zealand in 2017. On September 17, 2023, in the Asia Cup final in Colombo against Sri Lanka, Mohammed Siraj took 5 wickets in 16 balls, demonstrating his prowess. He equaled the record of the legendary Sri Lankan bowler Chaminda Vaas by becoming the fastest bowler to take 6 wickets in ODIs. In that match, he also became the first Indian bowler to take 4 wickets in a single over, achieving a significant milestone.
