    Mr. Bachchan Vs Double Ismart: Who's the Winner in Day 1 Collections?
    Mr. Bachchan Vs Double Ismart: Who's the Winner in Day 1 Collections?
    On August 15, marking Independence Day, blockbuster films hit the screens. 'Double Ismart' by the Ram-Puri combo and 'Mr. Bachchan' by the Ravi Teja-Harish Shankar team greeted the audiences. Alongside them, Tamil star Vikram's 'Thangalan' and NTR's brother-in-law Narne Nithiin's 'Aay' also made their presence felt in theaters. While the films starring Ravi Teja and Ram received mixed responses, Vikram's and Narne Nithiin's movies garnered positive talk. But which film took the lead in day one collections? Which movie raked in the highest earnings? Let’s find out in this report. Double Ismart's Collections! 'Double Ismart,' directed by Puri Jagannadh and starring Ram Pothineni, garnered a divided response but still managed to pull in impressive numbers. The film reportedly earned Rs. 12.45 crores (GROSS) worldwide on its opening day, as officially announced by the makers. They even released a special poster to mark the occasion. In the states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana alone, the film collected over Rs. 8.35 crores, as reported by trade circles, with an additional Rs. 4 crores coming from the rest of India and overseas. With the long weekend, there’s potential for further increase in its collections. Mr. Bachchan’s Scenario! 'Mr. Bachchan,' the third collaboration between Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja and creative director Harish Shankar, carried high expectations until its release on Thursday, August 15, but received mixed reviews. Nevertheless, it managed to gross Rs. 5.3 crores worldwide on its first day, with Rs. 1.8 crores coming from the premiere shows held on August 14, as stated by trade sources. The film faced significant trolling right from the first show, which reportedly affected its collections. However, given the long weekend, recovery isn’t ruled out. Bhagyashri Borse starred alongside Ravi Teja, marking her debut in the Telugu film industry with this movie. Thangalaan Tops! 'Thangalaan,' starring Tamil star hero Vikram, topped the release day earnings among all the films, collecting a massive Rs. 26.44 crores (GROSS) worldwide, as officially declared by the producers. The film has been especially well-received even without a North Indian release yet, drawing universal acclaim. It is set to release in the North on the 30th of this month. 'Thangalaan,' performing well in Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam, is expected to achieve significant box office numbers by the end of this weekend, with Vikram's performance being widely praised. Aay's Good Collections! 'Aay,' the second film by NTR’s brother-in-law Narne Nithiin following the success of 'Mad,' captivated audiences again with its village backdrop love entertainer. The film brought in positive talk on its first day, with trade circles estimating that it grossed Rs. 2 crores. Made on a budget of Rs. 8 crores, the film’s appealing opening day collections have left the film unit in high spirits, anticipating profits by the end of the weekend.

    Unpacking 'Mr. Bachchan' Movie Review: A Blend of Action, Comedy, and Romance
    Cast: Ravi Teja, Bhagyashri Borse, Jagapathi Babu, Sachin Khedekar, Shubhaleka Sudhakar, Kishore Raju Vashisht, Satya, Chammak Chandra, and others. Director: Harish Shankar Music: Mickey J. Meyer Cinematography: Ayananka Bose Editor: Ujwal Kulkarni Producers: TG Vishwaprasad, Bhushan Kumar, Krishnan Kumar, Abhishek The latest film featuring Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja under the direction of Harish Shankar is titled "Mr. Bachchan." Bollywood beauty Bhagyashri Borse stars as the heroine. Following the blockbuster "Mirapakay," the expectations for "Mr. Bachchan," another Ravi Teja-Harish Shankar combo, were sky-high. Trailers, teasers, and promotional images significantly raised expectations. The movie was released on August 15th as an Independence Day treat. How was the film? Did it meet expectations? Did Ravi Teja score another hit? Let's find out in this review. What's the Story? Income Tax Officer Mr. Bachchan (Ravi Teja) is an honest man. He becomes the target of wrath from his superiors after raiding a corrupt tobacco trader, leading to his suspension. Afterwards, Mr. Bachchan returns to his hometown, Kotipalli, and falls in love with Jikki (Bhagyashri). Just as he's preparing to marry, he's called back to his job. His next assignment is a raid at the home of MP Muthyam Jaggaiah (Jagapathi Babu), a man even officials fear. How did Bachchan conduct the raid in Jaggaiah’s home? What challenges did he face there? How did Bachchan and Jikki's love affair turn out? How did the elders agree to their marriage? Ultimately, what does Mr. Bachchan achieve? This is the rest of the story. How Did They Perform? Ravi Teja appears very powerful as Mr. Bachchan, dazzling with his unique style of comedy and reminiscent of the Ravi Teja of the past. He marked his presence in both action sequences and emotional scenes, showing versatility adapted to the situations. Bhagyashri Borse charmed with her glamor, especially shining in the songs. Jagapathi Babu fully justified his role as the antagonist. Comedian Satya entertained with his comedy, especially in the first half. Sachin Khedekar, Tanikella Bharani, Gautami, and Praveen also performed well in their respective roles, fitting perfectly within their character limits. How's the Direction? Director Harish Shankar attempted to show through this film the benefits to society when an Income Tax Officer works with integrity. He well-crafted the character of Mr. Bachchan and its related scenes. The love track between Ravi Teja and Bhagyashri Borse was a strong point of the movie. It played a crucial role in engaging the audience in the first half, along with Satya’s comedy. The climax leading up to the raid on Muthyam Jaggaiah's house and the subsequent action-packed scenes turned the narrative engaging. However, the magic of Harish’s direction faded somewhat in the second half. The entire second half revolving solely around the IT raid lessened the intrigue. A more interesting build-up between the hero and the villain's mind games would have been advantageous. A stronger portrayal of the villain’s role could have elevated the film to another level. Technically Technically, Mickey J. Meyer was the first hero for this film, providing catchy tunes suitable for the narrative. Songs like "Reppalu Dappulu," "Jikki," "Sitara," and "Nallanchu Tella Cheera" were a feast for both ears and eyes. Ayananka Bose's cinematographer was captivating. The production values were high. Plus Points - Ravi Teja’s performance - Love track - Comedy, Dialogues Minus Points - Second half - Some boring scenes Telugu.yousay.tv Rating: 3/5

    Directed by Harish Shankar and starring Ravi Teja, the film 'Mr Bachchan' was released on August 15 and initially met with massive criticism. Harish Shankar’s direction was heavily criticized, leading to a significant backlash at the box office for 'Mr Bachchan'. With hopes of captivating the OTT audience, the film was recently released on streaming platforms. However, even OTT viewers are wielding criticism, reigniting a wave of trolls on social media platforms. Continued Mockery on OTT! 'Mr Bachchan', which had high hopes pinned on it by mass Maharaja Ravi Teja, faced a dismal performance at the box office. Directed by Harish Shankar with Bhagyashri Borse as the heroine, the movie has been a monumental flop. However, since September 12, the film has been available on Netflix and has been released in Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, and Kannada. Yet, it has not been well-received on OTT either, failing even to secure a spot in the Netflix top 10 trending list. Surprisingly, a film featuring star hero Ravi Teja has garnered minimal views, causing a stir among Netflix circles. Few who watched the movie on OTT are adding to the trolls online, deterring potential viewers. Severe Trolling! Some scenes from the movie 'Mr Bachchan' have left netizens astonished. Director Harish Shankar is being criticized for how certain scenes were executed.

Moreover, dance steps performed by Ravi Teja with Bhagyashri Borse in the songs are being likened to adult content, causing further controversy. The songs are also criticized for being irrelevant and forcibly fitted into the scenes. Even though the Hindi version 'Ride' was a hit, director Harish Shankar is facing backlash as 'Mr Bachchan' didn’t meet expectations. A netizen posted that they couldn’t watch the movie for even an hour and stopped watching after just half an hour. https://twitter.com/nenuneneh/status/1834511822277234953 https://twitter.com/BalaRTCultFan/status/1834481953619542526 https://twitter.com/koppalapn/status/1834462816470007925 https://twitter.com/IamanMCA/status/1834453046287630562 https://twitter.com/Dynamic_boy_7/status/1834439289717096574 https://twitter.com/BunnyJashu3/status/1834299241700757520 Plot Income Tax Officer Mr. Bachchan (Ravi Teja) is an honest man who faces wrath from his superiors for raiding a corrupt tobacco trader.

    Bhagyashri Borse's Meteoric Rise: From 'Mr. Bachchan' Flop to Starring with Ram, Dulquer, and Vijay Deverakonda!
    Young beauty Bhagyashri Borse's name has recently been echoing in Tollywood. Despite her first Telugu film Mr. Bachchan failing at the box office, her performance received praise. Recently, she joined a pan-India project with Dulquer Salmaan, proving that her popularity remains intact. Now, she has bagged another big offer, leaving everyone surprised.

Naveen Yerneni and Ravi Shankar are producing the film under Mythri Movie Makers. Ram has pinned a lot of hopes on this project, as he has not delivered a solid hit in a while. His previous films, Red, The Warrior, Skanda, and Double iSmart, were disappointments at the box office. With RAPO22, the energetic star aims to deliver a hit that will delight his fans. On the other hand, after the failure of Mr. Bachchan, this film's success is crucial for Bhagyashri Borse as well. https://twitter.com/DQsWayfarerFilm/status/1833013939837276196 Unshaken Popularity Despite a Flop Bhagyashri Borse's name trended significantly during the release of Mr. Bachchan. Ever since her selection as the lead actress, she has been grabbing attention on social media. When the first song from the movie was announced, her visuals left fans mesmerized. However, with the unexpected failure of Mr. Bachchan, all expectations took a hit. Facing such a drastic failure with her debut film, she slowed down her social media presence. Recently, she proved her popularity hadn't waned by being selected as the heroine in Kaantha. While working on that film, she surprised everyone by bagging another exciting opportunity alongside Ram. https://twitter.com/DQsWayfarerFilm/status/1833013939837276196 Pan-India Film with Dulquer Bhagyashri Borse is starring opposite Malayalam actor Dulquer Salmaan in the film Kaantha, directed by Selvamani Selvaraj of Neela fame. The project was announced on Dulquer’s birthday, and a pooja ceremony was held a few weeks ago. Bhagyashri, dressed elegantly in a saree, attended the event, earning praise for her looks. Fans took to social media to congratulate her on bagging such a significant opportunity. The film is jointly produced by Wayfarer Films and Spirit Media, with Rana Daggubati playing a key role. https://twitter.com/DQsWayfarerFilm/status/1833013939837276196 With Vijay Deverakonda Too Bhagyashri Borse is also playing the female lead in VD12, a film starring Vijay Deverakonda and directed by Gowtam Tinnanuri. She is actively participating in the shoot, where Vijay is reportedly playing a police officer. The film is said to revolve around a police constable's journey to becoming a mafia leader. Produced by Sithara Entertainments and Fortune Four Cinemas, the film will have music composed by Anirudh Ravichander. Additionally, there’s speculation that Bhagyashri might star opposite Natural Star Nani in a film directed by Sujeeth. https://twitter.com/DQsWayfarerFilm/status/1833013939837276196 Is Bhagyashri in Love? Rumors have surfaced suggesting that Bhagyashri Borse might be in love. A previous Instagram post of hers, saying "Love happens without any warning," went viral. Sharing a bouquet gifted by someone close to her, she added a love symbol to the post. She carefully avoided revealing the person's identity while sharing pictures of snow-covered valleys and sunsets. Subtle hints like two birds in a photo sparked speculations about her love life. Fans flooded social media with posts speculating that the actress might have found someone special. https://twitter.com/DQsWayfarerFilm/status/1833013939837276196

    Weekend Collections: Heading Toward Disaster for ‘Mr. Bachchan’ and ‘Double Ismart’... NTR's Brother-in-Law Dominates 4-Day Collections!
    To coincide with Independence Day, several big films hit the screens on August 15. The movies 'Double Ismart' featuring Ram and directed by Puri Jagannadh, and 'Mr. Bachchan' starring Ravi Teja and directed by Harish Shankar were among the releases. Additionally, the Tamil star Vikram's 'Thangalaan' and NTR's brother-in-law's film 'Aay' also premiered on the same day. Prior to their release, the films of Ravi Teja and Ram generated massive hype. However, post-release, they failed to meet expectations and disappointed in terms of collections. On the other hand, 'Thangalaan' and 'Aay' received positive reviews and are doing well at the box office. Let's take a look at the 4-day collections of these four films and see which one is leading the pack. Disastrous Collections for Mr. Bachchan! Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja, paired with actress Bhaghyashri Borse, starred in the latest film ‘Mr. Bachchan,’ directed by Harish Shankar. This action entertainer, released on August 15, failed to impress the audience as expected, resulting in dismal first-day collections. It grossed only ₹5.3 crores worldwide. The second day brought in ₹1.75 crores, and the third day saw similar figures. By the fourth day, the movie's collections had dropped from crores to lakhs, grossing only ₹65 lakhs worldwide. As a result, ‘Mr. Bachchan’ managed to collect just ₹7.50 crores in its first four days. Double Ismart Collections Headed for Disaster! The second film from the energetic star Ram Pothineni and director Puri Jagannadh combo, 'Double Ismart,' is the sequel to their previous blockbuster 'Ismart Shankar.' The film, which features Kavya Thapar as the lead actress, opened to decent figures, grossing ₹12.45 crores worldwide on its first day. However, negative talk quickly spread, leading to a drop in collections. The second day saw the film gross just ₹2.25 crores worldwide. Over the next two days, it managed to bring in ₹1.5 crores and ₹1.9 crores respectively. In total, 'Double Ismart' collected ₹16 crores in its first four days. Thangalaan's 4-Day Collections South Indian star Vikram's 'Thangalaan,' directed by Pa. Ranjith, also released on August 15. The film, produced by K.E. Gnanavel Raja, received positive word-of-mouth on its first day, grossing ₹26.44 crores worldwide. Over the Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, it continued to perform solidly, bringing its total four-day worldwide gross to ₹65 crores. The fact that it achieved this level of success without even releasing in the North has garnered widespread praise. 'Thangalaan' is set to release in the North on August 30. With positive talk in Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam, the film is expected to continue its strong box office performance this week. ‘Aay’ Moves Into Profits! NTR’s brother-in-law Narnne Nithiin starred in the latest film 'Aay,' which was released on August 15. Despite competing with big films, ‘Aay’ stood its ground and garnered positive talk. The film has been performing well at the box office. On its first day, it grossed ₹2 crores and maintained that momentum on the second day. Trade sources reported that the film earned ₹1.20 crores on the third day and increased to ₹1.46 crores on the fourth day. With total collections of ₹7.20 crores in its first four days, 'Aay' became the first Independence Day release to enter profit territory. From here on, all earnings are expected to be pure profit, according to trade experts.

    "Box Office Battle Brews as 'Double Ismart' and 'Mr. Bachchan' Vie for Independence Day Release"
    "Box Office Battle Brews as 'Double Ismart' and 'Mr. Bachchan' Vie for Independence Day Release"
    With Icon Star Allu Arjun's "Pushpa 2" moving away from its August 15 release, a major showdown was expected. Ram Pothineni's "Double Ismart," directed by Puri Jagannadh, was then set to premiere on that date. Since no other film had claimed this slot, it seemed "Double Ismart" would enjoy a solo release. However, in a surprising turn of events, Ravi Teja's "Mr. Bachchan," directed by Harish Shankar, also targeted the August 15 slot, igniting a significant box office battle. Recent industry developments have raised doubts about whether director Puri Jagannadh is lagging in this competition. Rumors are circulating that he might be anxious, leading to a noticeable lack of promotions for "Double Ismart." Promotions... Depressions? As August 15 approaches, the "Mr. Bachchan" team is aggressively promoting their film, conducting successive press meets to drum up audience interest. In contrast, the situation with "Double Ismart" is starkly different. Puri Jagannadh and his team have not held a single press meet nor started any promotions yet. Normally, promotions significantly impact a movie’s opening success, and the lack of crucial promotions for "Double Ismart" has left industry analysts puzzled. With "Mr. Bachchan" now racing towards the same release date, questions are being raised about whether Puri Jagannadh has lost his edge. This has led to speculation about the potential reasons behind his concern, especially considering the critical importance of this movie for both hero Ram and him. The Unyielding Bachchan Team! It seems that the "Double Ismart" team tried everything to avoid a clash with "Mr. Bachchan" on Independence Day. There are reports that they requested the Bachchan team to delay their release, which was apparently declined. In this context, "Double Ismart" producer Charmme recently blocked Ravi Teja and director Harish Shankar on social media. Additionally, distributors from the "Liger" movie are reportedly upset with Puri for moving forward with a new film release without settling the losses from "Liger." This situation is putting further pressure on the "Double Ismart" team’s response. Strategy or Confusion? There is talk that the lack of promotions for the pan-India release of "Double Ismart" is a strategic decision. Director Puri is reportedly following Nag Ashwin's approach with "Kalki 2898 AD," focusing solely on content-driven promotions (trailers, teasers, lyrical songs, promotional posters). After the extensive promotions for "Liger" backfired, it seems the team is being cautious not to repeat the same mistake. However, some in the industry believe the ongoing distributor issues and complications with the "Mr. Bachchan" team are why the "Ismart" team has not been able to focus on promotions. They suggest the team is in disarray, which has stalled the start of their promotional activities. “We’re Releasing Early Because of the OTT Issue”: Harish Shankar Recently, director Harish Shankar responded to a reporter’s question about releasing "Mr. Bachchan" simultaneously with a Puri Jagannadh film, expressing that he cannot compare himself with a stalwart like Puri, whom he respects greatly. “It’s my good fortune that my film is releasing alongside his. The main reason for both films releasing on the same date is an OTT issue, prompting us to release earlier. I have no quarrels with Mr. Puri,” explained Harish Shankar.

    Ravi Teja: How Did He Win Over Balakrishna's Fans with the 'Aavesham' Remake?
    Ravi Teja: How Did He Win Over Balakrishna's Fans with the 'Aavesham' Remake?
    Among the stars of Tollywood, Ravi Teja is known as the 'Mass Maharaja'. Having delivered blockbusters such as 'Idiot', 'Bhadra', 'Venky', 'Vikramarkudu', 'Kick', 'Mirapakay', 'Power', 'Bengal Tiger', and 'Raja The Great', Ravi Teja hasn't been seen much in recent years. Although his recent films 'Dhamaka' and 'Eagle' seemed promising, they failed to deliver the level of success expected of Ravi Teja's caliber. His latest, 'Mr. Bachchan', also faced a dismal failure. Given his string of flops, it appears that the Mass Maharaja is taking a daring step by getting ready to remake a successful Malayalam movie. Ravi Teja in the Remake of 'Aavesham'! The Malayalam film 'Aavesham', directed by Jeethu Madhavan and featuring Fahadh Faasil in the lead, was an action-comedy that released this year and achieved great success, grossing over ₹150 crores at the box office. There has been talk in Tollywood about remaking this film in Telugu for some time. According to the latest buzz, Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja has acquired the remake rights of this film. Ravi Teja's acquisition of the rights has led to widespread speculation that he will star in the remake himself, to be produced under his own production company. An official announcement may also be coming soon, exciting Ravi Teja's fans. Choosing Over Balakrishna... There were rumors that Nandamuri Balakrishna would star in remake 'Aavesham' in Telugu, as Fahadh Faasil's role seemed a good fit for him. Balakrishna's fans even counted the film as one of his future projects. However, unexpectedly, Ravi Teja secured the project instead, charming Balakrishna's fans. Yet, Balakrishna's fans also say that Fahadh Faasil's role suits Ravi Teja well and believe that he will do justice to the various shades of the character. The question of who will direct this intriguing remake is currently generating much interest. Struggling to Overcome the Flop Streak! Ravi Teja, who once entertained fans with hit films, is now struggling with a series of flops. Of his last ten films, only one ('Krack') was a hit, and two others ('Dhamaka' and 'Eagle') received average feedback. The remaining seven were outright failures at the box office. The less said about 'Mr. Bachchan', the better, as it drew significant criticism and trolling for Ravi Teja. Critics have pointed out that he is not choosing age-appropriate roles and seems more interested in romantic scenes with much younger actresses. These criticisms have led Ravi Teja to decide that he must achieve a hit somehow and believes that remaking the successful Malayalam movie 'Aavesham' would be a safe bet. Will 'Aavesham' Be a Good Fit? 'Aavesham' presents a unique story where three college students seek help from a local gangster, Ranga (Fahadh Faasil), to deal with their seniors. As the plot unfolds, Ranga forms a bond with the students, but complications arise due to his character, leading to an intriguing situation. Fahadh Faasil's characterization is a special attraction in this story. Given that the character suits senior actors well, initially, Balakrishna's name came up. Now that Ravi Teja's name has emerged, many wonder how he will fit into this role. There's no doubt that Ravi Teja can handle it, as the role demands a mix of comedy, action, and aggression, all of which he can deliver convincingly.

    Janhvi Kapoor and Bhagyashri Borse: Unexpected Setbacks and New Hopes in Tollywood
    Janhvi Kapoor and Bhagyashri Borse: Unexpected Setbacks and New Hopes in Tollywood
    Bollywood beauties Bhagyashri Borse and Janhvi Kapoor have been gaining recognition as the future heroines of Tollywood for some time now. There was considerable buzz that a solid hit could ensure a series of opportunities for these actresses. However, their first films did not captivate the audience as expected. Bhagyashri Borse faced a flop with the movie 'Mr. Bachchan'. Although Janhvi Kapoor had a successful film with 'Devara', her role was too brief to be highlighted significantly. Both actresses are now pinning high hopes on their upcoming films. The Burden is All on Charan! Entering Tollywood with the big star Tarak in 'Devara', Janhvi Kapoor, the daughter of Sridevi, had created a significant buzz even before its release. She was actively involved in promotions and managed to attract everyone's attention. However, after the release, Janhvi’s character left much to be desired, reminiscent of a guest role, which greatly disappointed her fans. Now, Janhvi’s hopes are all pinned on the upcoming project 'RC 16', a collaboration between Ram Charan and Buchi Babu. Whether she will get a substantial role in this film remains a question among her fans. If Janhvi proved her mettle as an actress, she could also become popular in Telugu cinema. It remains to be seen how well she will impress in RC 16. Bhagyashri Borse's Bright Future! Until the release of 'Mr. Bachchan', Bhagyashri Borse's name resonated strongly in Tollywood, hailed as the future queen. However, an unexpected disaster with 'Mr. Bachchan' evaporated all the high hopes placed on her. Yet, she has managed to make a mark as an actress. Currently, she is reportedly acting in 'VD12' alongside Vijay Deverakonda and has recently embarked on a pan-India project with Dulquer Salman titled 'Kaanta'. Furthermore, many young actors are keen to work with Bhagyashri, suggesting that despite the flop of 'Mr. Bachchan', her fame remains untarnished. Film analysts predict that a proper hit could easily catapult her into the top tier of Telugu heroines. From Sridevi's Daughter to a Star Heroine! Janhvi made her entry into Bollywood as Sridevi’s daughter with the Marathi film 'Sairat' remake, 'Dhadak'. She then acted in 'Gunjan Saxena', earning acclaim for her performance based on a real-life story. While she continued to take on roles in films like 'Good Luck Jerry', 'Mili', and 'Bawaal', major success eluded her. However, her appearance in a special song in 'Rakhi Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani' caught everyone's eye. Recently, she has received praise for her roles as the female lead in Bollywood films 'Mr. and Mrs. Mahi' and 'Ulaaj'. Currently, Janhvi is filming 'Sunny Sanskriti ki Tulsi Kumari' in Hindi. Background of Bhagyashri! Bhagyashri Borse hails from Pune, Maharashtra. She made her silver screen debut with the Hindi film 'Yaariyan 2' after modeling in various ads, notably gaining fame with Cadbury Dairy Milk Silk commercials. Impressed by her acting in 'Yaariyan 2', director Harish Shankar gave her a chance in 'Mr. Bachchan'. Since then, this actress has created a buzz in Tollywood, securing more offers. Known for her cute looks, Bhagyashri is also very active on social media, frequently treating fans to glamorous updates and thus enhancing her popularity beyond cinema.

    Tollywood's Emerging Directors: Redefining the Role of Heroines
    Tollywood's Emerging Directors: Redefining the Role of Heroines
    In cinema, both the hero and the heroine are crucial, like the two eyes of a face. Nowadays, heroines seem to have less scope for substantive roles compared to the past, with some directors focusing films predominantly around the hero. Often, heroines appear primarily for songs and to add a visual appeal. Recent movies like 'Liger,' 'Mr. Bachchan,' and 'Double iSmart' have drawn criticism for focusing more on heroines' exposure than their acting skills. However, some young directors in Tollywood are attracting praise for portraying heroines with dignity, following the example set by Sekhar Kammula. Who are these directors? What films have they made? How have they portrayed their heroines? Let’s find out. Sekhar Kammula When you think of a sensible director in Tollywood, Sekhar Kammula is one of the first names that come to mind. He is known for creating beautiful love stories and engaging family dramas. The heroines in his films and the way they are portrayed remain memorable to the audience. Kamalinee Mukherjee in 'Anand' and 'Godavari' is a prime example, portrayed as the girl-next-door in a dignified manner. In 'Leader,' Richa Gangopadhyay, and in 'Life is Beautiful,' Shagun Kaur, left lasting impressions. Particularly in films like 'Fidaa' and 'Love Story,' Sai Pallavi's roles won hearts without relying on exposure, affirming Sekhar’s significant contribution to her becoming a star heroine. His understanding of how to extract authentic performances from actresses makes many heroines keen to work with him at least once. Hanu Raghavapudi Similar to Sekhar Kammula, director Hanu Raghavapudi takes great care in the portrayal of heroines. His films 'Andala Rakshasi,' 'Krishna Gaadi Veera Prema Gaadha,' 'Padi Padi Leche Manasu,' and 'Sita Ramam' make it clear that he focuses on the substance of his heroines' roles. Actresses like Lavanya Tripathi, Mehreen, Sai Pallavi, and Mrunal Thakur under his direction have garnered significant acclaim. Mrunal Thakur, in particular, received rave reviews for her role in the beautiful love saga 'Sita Ramam,' achieving star status in Telugu cinema. Her character Sita in the film remains special to her, as stated in various interviews. Hanu has announced a project with Prabhas, introducing a new actress, Iman Ismail, to the Telugu screen, whose appearance has already generated considerable interest. Vivek Athreya Young director Vivek Athreya also seems to follow in Sekhar Kammula's footsteps regarding heroine portrayal. His recent film 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' with Nani, featuring Tamil actress Priyanka Arul Mohan, showcased her acting without resorting to glamour. His previous works, 'Mental Madhilo,' 'Brochevarevarura,' and 'Ante Sundaraniki,' emphasized dignified portrayals over skin show, with actresses like Nivetha Pethuraj, Nivetha Thomas, and Nazriya Nazim earning recognition for their roles. Shouryuv Director Shouryuv made his mark with the film 'Hi Nanna,' capturing hearts and earning praise for his sensitive portrayal. In the film, Nani stars alongside Mrunal Thakur, who was previously known in Bollywood for more glamorous roles. Shouryuv presented her as a quintessential Telugu girl without compromising her dignity throughout the film. Despite opportunities for skin show in songs, he chose not to take that route, maintaining the integrity of Mrunal's character. This approach left film critics impressed and hopeful that he will continue in this manner in his future projects. Tharun Bhascker Tharun Bhascker, a young director, has quickly become synonymous with youthful films. He has gained recognition in a short time with content that resonates with the youth, without ever giving in to the temptation to showcase glamour unnecessarily. Starting with his debut film 'Pelli Choopulu,' this aspect becomes clear. Vijay Deverakonda and Ritu Varma's pairing in the film highlighted substantial acting over cheap thrills. This film significantly boosted Ritu Varma's popularity. After turning actor in several films, Tharun Bhascker has returned to directing with 'Keeḍa Cola,' continuing his tradition of dignified cinematic portrayals.

    Rising Stars: Bhagyashri Borse and Kavya Thapar Set to Shine in Tollywood
    Rising Stars: Bhagyashri Borse and Kavya Thapar Set to Shine in Tollywood
    Tollywood is no stranger to heroines. With each film, new faces are introduced. While some captivate with their beauty and acting, becoming star heroines, others fade without making a mark. On this note, two heroines are gearing up to showcase their talent on the Telugu screen around August 15. Bhagyashri Borse is set to charm the audience with "Mr. Bachchan," while Kavya Thapar is ready with "Double iSmart." While Kavya Thapar has already done four films in Telugu, it is the first film for Bhagyashri Borse, making the competition between them quite interesting. Let's examine their prospects in this showdown. Bhagyashri Borse The Epitome of Beauty, Bhagyashri! During the promotions of "Mr. Bachchan," Bhagyashri has been the center of attention in the media, surprising everyone with her varied looks at each event. She appeared traditional in a saree at one event and strikingly glamorous in modern attire at another. The "Mr. Bachchan" team is also highlighting her beauty, actively involving her in the promotions to heighten expectations among the youth. This hot beauty is seizing the opportunity, bringing fresh charm to the promotions with her adorable expressions. She views this as her best chance to make a mark. Harish Shankar's Mark! If you observe the trailers, teasers, and promotional posters of "Mr. Bachchan," it's evident that Bhagyashri is set to deliver a glamorous treat. She seems to have put on a commendable performance alongside Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja. Director Harish Shankar is well-known for showcasing heroines effectively. As seen in the duo's previous film "Mirapakay," which entertained with two heroines, "Mr. Bachchan" is expected to offer a substantial dose of glamor from Bhagyashri. If this film kicks off her career properly, she might become an unstoppable force in the industry. Moreover, her decision to dub for herself could work greatly in her favor. Exciting Projects in Hand Even before the release of one movie, Bhagyashri Borse has been swamped with incredible offers. During the shooting of "Mr. Bachchan," she landed a role in an upcoming film by the Vijay Deverakonda-Gowtam Tinnanuri duo. She is also participating in the shooting of this movie. Furthermore, there is buzz about her being considered for a heroine role in an upcoming film starring Hero Nani directed by Sujeeth. If all goes well, an official announcement about the Nani-Bhagyashri duo might soon be made. Thus, without even a debut release, she is continuously securing opportunities in Tollywood, poised to become a top heroine if her upcoming blockbusters succeed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CS7Wm46EXAA Background of Bhagyashri Borse Bhagyashri Borse hails from Pune, Maharashtra. She was introduced to the silver screen with the Hindi film "Yaariyan 2." Previously, she worked as a model in various ads, notably gaining fame with Cadbury Dairy Milk Silk commercials. Impressed by her acting in "Yaariyan 2," director Harish Shankar offered her a role in "Mr. Bachchan." This has created a buzz around her in Tollywood, leading to more offers. Known for her cute appearance, Bhagyashri is also very active on social media, constantly sharing glamorous photos and engaging with fans, thereby increasing her popularity beyond films. Kavya Thapar Kavya Thapar's Buzz! Kavya Thapar starred as the heroine in the "Double iSmart" movie, formed from the Ram Pothineni-Puri Jagannadh combo. Despite acting in Telugu films like "Ee Maaya Peremito," "Ek Mini Katha," and "Ooru Peru Bhairavakona," she hadn't achieved a major breakthrough. Hence, she has high hopes for the success of "Double iSmart." She did not hold back in showcasing her glamor either. The trailer and lyrical song videos, along with promotional posters of "Double iSmart," show Kavya Thapar in a very hot avatar. Her glamorous look and stunning dance moves have captivated the youth. She also acted in a lip-lock scene, surprising everyone. If all goes as planned and "Double iSmart" succeeds, it is certain that Kavya Thapar will become a star heroine, as predicted by film circles. Under Srinu Vaitla's Direction... Kavya Thapar has bagged the heroine role opposite Gopichand in the upcoming film "Viswam," directed by Srinu Vaitla. This high-action entertainer is mostly being shot in Italy and is nearing the final stages of filming. Kavya has high expectations for this film as well. According to the latest buzz, she is set to appear in a special song in "Pushpa 2." Given her popularity among the youth for her beauty, director Sukumar is contemplating featuring Kavya in an item song, with an official announcement expected soon. Additionally, more opportunities are anticipated for Kavya Thapar, who remains busy not only in films but also on social media, where she frequently shares her glamorous photos, delighting netizens. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Kba0qmTtZE Background of Kavya Thapar Originally from Maharashtra, Kavya Thapar began her career with the 2013 short film "Tatkal." She was introduced as a heroine in the Telugu film "Ee Maya Peremito" and gained acclaim for her role as Amritha in "Ek Mini Katha." Subsequently, she impressed in the Punjabi series "CAT" and the Hindi series "Farzi." This year, she greeted audiences with the films "Eega" and "Ooru Peru Bhairavakona." In addition to her film work, Kavya is very active on social media, continuously sharing her glamorous photos and providing a visual treat to her followers, who are thoroughly enjoying her updates.

    Double Ismart: Cold War with Ram? Is that why Puri didn't attend the trailer launch?
    Double Ismart: Cold War with Ram? Is that why Puri didn't attend the trailer launch?
    Starring Ram Pothineni and directed by Puri Jagannadh, the upcoming film 'Double Ismart' is scheduled for a grand release on August 15. However, since the release date was announced, the movie team has encountered several issues. The entry of Ravi Teja’s 'Mr. Bachchan' into the August lineup and demands from 'Liger' distributors to settle their losses have posed significant challenges for the team. Additionally, recent rumors suggest there is discord between the hero, Ram, and director Puri. Let's delve into the reasons behind this alleged cold war. Ram's Dissatisfaction! After the success of 'Ismart Shankar' at the box office, a sequel titled 'Double Ismart' was developed by the Ram-Puri combo. Although the movie is set to release on August 15, recent developments have reportedly left hero Ram dissatisfied. The 'Liger' controversy and distribution issues in Nizam, along with producer Charmee not starting promotions, have frustrated Ram. It’s speculated that these conflicts led to Puri's absence from the trailer launch event on Sunday. The event, where Ram had to promote the movie solo, has become a hot topic in Tollywood. Puri's Explanation! Director Puri released a video statement regarding his absence at the 'Double Ismart' trailer release event. He explained that he was in Mumbai for the final mixing required for the censor board and couldn’t attend the event. He expressed his regret about missing the event, but netizens are skeptical about these claims. The absence of a director at such a crucial trailer launch, supposedly due to a rift with Ram, is being questioned by many. If 'Double Ismart' turns out to be a super hit, it might automatically bridge the gap between them, suggest some netizens. Despite widespread speculation on social media about their disagreements, the film unit has not clarified the situation. https://twitter.com/i/status/1820365775439552575 How was the trailer? The trailer of 'Double Ismart', released on Sunday, was exactly as expected, filled with mass action and raw dialogues. Ram dazzled with his trademark energetic action, mass dialogues, and dance moves. Bollywood star Sanjay Dutt plays the villain 'Big Bull', whose brain memory is transferred into Shankar's (Ram Pothineni) brain, a key element highlighted in the trailer. Director Puri Jagannadh has taken the chip concept from Ismart Shankar to a new level with a brain memory transfer in Double Ismart, raising expectations for the film. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ym0upoayqJg Mr. Bachchan's Aggressive Promotions! Compared to the 'Double Ismart' team, the 'Mr. Bachchan' team is actively engaging in promotions, conducting consecutive press meets to reach the audience. Promotions generally impact a movie’s opening, and analysts are surprised at the lack of initiative from 'Double Ismart' given the importance of such promotions. With 'Mr. Bachchan' entering the race on August 15, is Puri feeling the pressure? This is under speculation. There are doubts about whether Puri is anxious about the movie's outcome. Backing Down Not an Option? It seems the 'Double Ismart' team tried everything to avoid a clash with 'Mr. Bachchan' on August 15. They reportedly requested the Bachchan team to delay their release, but were turned down. In this context, producer Charmee recently blocked Ravi Teja and director Harish Shankar on social media, according to reports.

    Mega Multi Starrer Movie: Chiru, Pawan, Charan Combo in a Multistarrer... Director Harish Shankar's Big Plan!
    The 'Mega Family' in Tollywood, known for its substantial fan base, has launched many stars under megastar Chiranjeevi. Present-day industry luminaries like Pawan Kalyan, Ram Charan, and Allu Arjun are all members of this illustrious family. Films from the Mega Family consistently create a buzz in Tollywood. Just imagine the excitement if Chiru, Pawan, and Charan starred together in a multistarrer! The prospect is thrilling and may soon become a reality, as director Harish Shankar is actively working towards this collaboration. Let's explore more about these developments. 'The Ultimate Pan-India Release'... Among the directors close to the Mega Family, Harish Shankar is notable. He has openly declared himself a fan of Pawan Kalyan. During the promotion of his film 'Mr. Bachchan', Harish Shankar made some significant comments in response to why he hasn't yet made a Pan-India film. He stated, "You can’t just write a story for the sake of calling it Pan-India. 'Pushpa' wasn’t made as a Pan-India film; neither was 'Kantara'. They told local stories that the Pan-India audience accepted. It should happen organically. I have been working on a line for Kalyan garu, Ram Charan, and Chiranjeevi. If made, it will be the true Pan-India film." Currently, these remarks have become the talk of Tollywood. Mega fans are eagerly posting their hopes for this film to hit the sets soon. https://twitter.com/i/status/1817891248398795055 'Past Special Cameos'... Megastar Chiranjeevi and Ram Charan have already appeared together in the movie 'Acharya', where Charan had a special cameo. Previously, Chiranjeevi made brief appearances in 'Bruce Lee' and 'Magadheera' to support his son. Similarly, Chiranjeevi and Pawan Kalyan have acted together in two films. Pawan Kalyan shined in a special song in 'Shankar Dada MBBS' and also shared the screen with Chiru in the climax of 'Shankar Dada Zindabad'. However, Chiru, Pawan, and Charan have never appeared together in full-length roles except in cameos. Fans have been eagerly waiting for a full-fledged Mega multi starrer film. 'Connection with the Mega Family' Director Harish Shankar shares a strong bond with the Mega Family. Known among fans as a director who truly understands the pulse of the Mega audience, Harish has worked with four Mega heroes. He directed 'Gabbar Singh' with Power Star Pawan Kalyan, 'Duvvada Jagannadham' with Allu Arjun, 'Gaddalakonda Ganesh' with Varun Tej, and 'Subrahmanyam For Sale' with Sai Dharam Tej. His portrayal of the Mega heroes in these films has greatly pleased the fans, leading to high expectations for his direction in a multistarrer. Netizens are posting that if such a project materializes, it will undoubtedly break box office records and they are hoping it starts shooting soon. 'Reminiscent of Ustaad Bhagat Singh'  It is known that Pawan Kalyan and Harish Shankar are working on 'Ustaad Bhagat Singh'. The filming of this movie faced interruptions due to Pawan Kalyan's busy political schedule in Andhra Pradesh, leading Harish Shankar to work on 'Mr. Bachchan' with Ravi Teja in the meantime. At a recent press meet, Harish Shankar made key remarks about 'Ustaad Bhagat Singh', expressing anticipation for Pawan Kalyan's availability to complete the film. He assured that this film would be memorable for fans for many years and fully deliver on the expectations audiences have from a Pawan Kalyan movie. Fans are confident they will want to watch this film over and over again.

    Tollywood 2024: Blockbusters and Budget Surprises, From 'Kalki 2898 AD' to 'HanuMan' 
    Tollywood 2024: Blockbusters and Budget Surprises, From 'Kalki 2898 AD' to 'HanuMan' 
    The year 2024 has been extremely fruitful for Tollywood. This year's highest-grossing film was Prabhas's 'Kalki 2898 AD.' Released as a festive treat for Sankranti, the movie 'Hanuman' also showcased its strength at the national box office with impressive collections. However, these two films were made with massive budgets. In contrast, lower-budget films like 'Tillu Square,' 'Committee Kurrollu,' and 'Aay' also stood on par in terms of collections with those two films, achieving nearly triple the return on investment. These films have been noted for the significant difference between their budget and collections, ranking among the top 5 Telugu films. Let's examine these details in this special report. Committee Kurrollu Niharika Konidela's debut production, 'Committee Kurrollu,' featured eleven new heroes and was released on August 10, garnering positive reviews. It raked in Rs. 17.60 crores worldwide on a budget of just Rs. 6 crores. The film achieved three times the return relative to its budget, earning accolades from critics. 'Committee Kurrollu' is currently streaming on ETV Win, where it continues to receive a favorable response from OTT platforms. Aay The recent film 'Aay,' starring Narne Nithiin and Nayan Sarika, directed by Anji K. Maniputra, was released on August 15 and captured a hit status. It outperformed star-studded films like 'Mr. Bachchan' and 'Double iSmart' in collections, amassing a total of Rs. 14.10 crores. The production costs were reported to be between Rs. 6-8 crores. Including OTT rights, 'Aay' managed to earn nearly three times its expenses. Kalki 2898 AD Directed by Nag Ashwin and starring Rebel Star Prabhas, 'Kalki 2898 AD' has shaken the Indian box office, grossing over Rs. 1200-1300 crores worldwide. Made in a mythological and futuristic genre, the film was produced with an approximate budget of Rs. 600 crores but earned more than double its cost, receiving widespread acclaim. Pan India star Prabhas once again proved his mettle at the box office. The film also featured stars like Amitabh Bachchan, Kamal Haasan, and Deepika Padukone, with special cameos by Vijay Deverakonda, Dulquer Salmaan, S.S. Rajamouli, and Ram Gopal Varma. Tillu Square Starring Siddhu Jonnalagadda and Anupama Parameswaran, 'Tillu Square' released in March this year and made a splash at the box office, collecting over Rs. 135 crores globally. Produced by prominent producer Nagadevara Suryavanshi with a budget of around Rs. 40 crores, the film achieved more than three times its budget. This movie marked Siddhu Jonnalagadda's first entry into the Rs. 100 crore club. HanuMan Directed by talented filmmaker Prasanth Varma and starring Teja Sajja, 'HanuMan' captured nationwide attention. Released as a Sankranti gift this year, the film unexpectedly grossed over Rs. 350 crores on a modest budget of Rs. 40 crores, nearly nine times its production cost, astonishing everyone. This success elevated Prashant Varma to a star director status. Following 'HanuMan,' Varma announced a new project with Nandamuri Balakrishna's son Mokshagna Teja, which is soon to commence shooting. He is also focusing on the sequel 'Jai Hanuman.'
