      Directed by Vivek Athreya and starring Nani, the film 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' has recently made its way to the audience. This action thriller has become a significant hit and added to Nani's list of successful movies. Priyanka Mohan stars opposite Nani, with Sai Kumar, Abhirami, Aditi Balan, and others in pivotal roles. Recently released on OTT, this film continues to create a buzz and is achieving high viewership, making it trend nationally. Nationwide Trending The film 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' featuring Nani began streaming on Netflix from September 26. Available in Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Malayalam, and Hindi, the film has met everyone’s expectations and garnered a high number of views. As a result, it started trending as the top one nationally from the second day of its release. To celebrate, Netflix released a special poster, shared by hero Nani through his X account. Both theatres and OTT platforms receiving good reception has made Nani's fans express their joy. https://twitter.com/NameisNani/status/1840402779652972796 Nani Surpasses Janhvi 'Ulajh' starring Janhvi Kapoor, released on Netflix the day after 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' came out, is also competing for the top spot. This spy thriller was introduced to audiences in August and made its OTT debut on September 27. Currently, it is capturing good viewership, making it in second place nationwide on Netflix. Directed by Sudhanshu Saria, Janhvi appears as IFS officer Suhana Bhatia, with Roshan Mathew in a leading role. Collections Over 100 Crores 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' was released in approximately 1000 screens on August 29, with a break-even target of 42 crores.

Highlights of Nani’s Film Recognized as a classic director through films like 'Mental Madhilo', 'Brochevarevarura', and 'Ante Sundaraniki', Vivek Athreya has introduced a new aspect of his hometown flavor in this film. Diverging from his usual style, he crafted the film with gripping action scenes that have been highly praised. Nani and S.J. Suryah's acting, the action sequences, and Jakes Bejoy's background music were major highlights. Particularly, the Tom and Jerry-like scenes between the hero and the villain delighted the audience.

      Nani and Vijay Deverakonda: Battling Nepotism in Tollywood's Tier 2
      Nani and Vijay Deverakonda: Battling Nepotism in Tollywood's Tier 2
      Nepotism has always been a hot topic in the film industry. Following the tragic demise of Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput, the debate around nepotism intensified. There's a widespread belief that nepotism bars opportunities for outsiders as industry heirs dominate the space. Nepotism has become commonplace, and Tollywood is no exception. It's often said that, after Bollywood, our industry has a high number of heroes from film families, leaving actors like Nani, Vijay Deverakonda, Nithiin, Adivi Sesh, Sharwanand, and Gopichand categorized as 'Tier 2' heroes. But how much truth is there to this? Are they truly unable to succeed because of nepotism? Let's find out in this special report. What Exactly is 'Tier 2'? Generally, in every industry, actors are classified into two or three tiers based on their popularity. In Tollywood, names like Prabhas, Ram Charan, Jr NTR, Allu Arjun, Pawan Kalyan, Mahesh Babu, Chiranjeevi, and Balakrishna are considered 'Tier 1' heroes. They create a festive atmosphere in theaters upon the release of their films, recovering about 30% to 50% of the budget on the first day itself due to their massive fan following. Tier 2 heroes, as previously mentioned, including Nani, Vijay Deverakonda, Nithiin, Ram Pothineni, Naga Chaitanya, and Gopichand, may lag slightly behind in terms of remuneration, fan base, and budget of the films. Despite competing with top-tier heroes and being active in the industry, their films' collections tend to be limited. Unseen by Star Directors! Star directors like Rajamouli, Trivikram, Sukumar, and Koratala Siva prefer working with top-tier heroes, which, fans argue, does injustice to stars like Vijay Deverakonda and Nani. The exclusion by star directors reportedly prevents these actors from achieving pan-Indian success. Even though they release films with new directors at a pan-India level, they don't achieve the expected results. Hero Nani faced this with his project 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram,' planned for a pan-India release but still not released in Hindi. Fans suggest that despite having talent, the lack of star power beyond Tollywood is a disadvantage for Nani. Are Stories Failing Too? A great cast cannot save a film if the story fails. Whether a film is a success or a failure largely depends on the story. Fans are questioning whether 'Tier 2' heroes are choosing their scripts wisely. Recent films like Ram Pothineni's 'Double iSmart', Ravi Teja's 'Mr Bachchan', Nithiin's 'Extraordinary Man', and Gopichand's 'Rambanam' have left fans puzzled over why these actors accepted these projects. With big scripts mostly going to top-tier heroes, 'Tier 2' actors have to settle for what's left, some commentators feel. Nepotism vs Talent! The notion that only heirs in the film industry can succeed is a myth. If that were true, every offspring from major film families would become a star hero. No matter the background, without acting talent, longevity in the industry is impossible, as many heirs have demonstrated. Actors like Nani, Vijay Deverakonda, Ravi Teja, Siddhu Jonnalagadda, Adivi Sesh, and Naveen Polishetty have made their mark without any significant background, solely based on their talent. A significant success for Nani could propel him to 'Tier 1', fueling speculations among fans. The Fault Lies in the Audience! In a past interview, actors Rana and Nani made interesting comments about nepotism. Rana highlighted the unseen pressures and responsibilities that come with inheritance, stating that nepotism only helps to an extent, and without talent, one cannot survive in the industry. Nani, addressing the role of nepotism in cinema, mentioned that it's not industry insiders but the audience that fosters nepotism. He pointed out the disparity in audience size between his debut and that of actor Charan, questioning the audience's role in perpetuating nepotism.

      Nani and Sekhar Kammula Set for a First-Time Collaboration, Sai Pallavi Likely to Join
      Nani and Sekhar Kammula Set for a First-Time Collaboration, Sai Pallavi Likely to Join
      Director Sekhar Kammula, known for crafting classic films in Tollywood, especially youthful love entertainers, has carved a distinct identity for himself. Meanwhile, Natural Star Nani is also popularly seen as a 'lover boy' and is currently riding high after the success of his recent movie 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram'. Amidst this backdrop, there is widespread buzz about an upcoming film under the direction of Sekhar Kammula starring Nani. It's being talked about that Sai Pallavi might join as the heroine for this movie. Super Combo Loading An exciting new combination is set to take shape in Tollywood with Nani and Sekhar Kammula teaming up for a new film, according to social media buzz. Tollywood circles are also abuzz with the prospects of this pairing. The script for this movie is reportedly ready, and Nani is expected to hear the final narration soon. The film is said to be a fresh love entertainer, and Sekhar Kammula is considering casting Sai Pallavi as the heroine, which is expected to be a great addition. If all goes as planned, an official announcement regarding this movie may be expected soon. A Departure from Usual Style Sekhar Kammula typically does not think about other projects while working on one, focusing entirely on the current film. However, he seems to have departed from this approach as he is already preparing stories for future projects while wrapping up current ones. This strategy might reduce the gap between his film releases. It is also noted that while working on these projects, Sekhar Kammula is already preparing the story for Nani's film. Currently, he is busy shooting 'Kubera', a pan-India film starring Tamil actor Dhanush and Telugu cinema stalwart Nagarjuna. A First Time for This Combo Till now, there hasn't been a film that brought Nani and Sekhar Kammula together. Sekhar has expressed his desire to work with Nani on multiple occasions. However, he has worked with Sai Pallavi in two films previously. She was introduced to the industry as a heroine with his film 'Fidaa', and she was also the leading lady in the film 'Love Story' starring Naga Chaitanya. Both these films were blockbuster successes and brought significant recognition to Sai Pallavi as an actress. On the other hand, Sai Pallavi and Nani have already worked together in two films, 'MCA' (Middle Class Abbayi) and 'Shyam Singha Roy', both of which received positive responses. Fans are eagerly anticipating a hat-trick success from their combo. Will it Take a While? After the film 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram', Nani is currently gearing up for 'Hit 3' under the direction of Sailesh Kolanu. A glimpse of this film was recently released and captured attention. Additionally, Nani is planning another film with director Sujeeth and another with the director of 'Dasara'. Given these commitments, it might take another two years for this rare combo to be set, and Sekhar Kammula is also busy with the filming of 'Kubera'.

      Nani Shines in 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' Amidst Mixed Reactions.
      Nani Shines in 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' Amidst Mixed Reactions.
      Cast: Nani, Priyanka Arul Mohan, S.J. Suryah, Saikumar, Shubhalekha Sudhakar, Abhirami, Aditi Balan, Murali Sharma, Ajay, among others Director: Vivek Athreya Music: Jakes Bejoy Editor: Karthika Srinivas Producers: DVV Danayya, Kalyan Dasari Release Date: 29-08-2024 Natural Star Nani stars in the latest film 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' directed by Vivek Athreya. Priyanka Arul Mohan plays the heroine, and prominent Tamil actor S.J. Suryah portrays the antagonist. Director Vivek Athreya, known for engaging audiences with class films like 'Mental Madhilo,' 'Brochevarevarura,' and 'Ante Sundaraniki,' has now ventured into the mass genre. Deviating from his usual style, he presents a powerful action drama in 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram.' The recently released trailer has significantly heightened expectations. The film had a grand worldwide release on August 29. How did it fare? Did Nani's performance impress? Let's find out in this review. What's the Story? Surya (Nani) works as an LIC agent. He cannot tolerate injustice happening before his eyes and chooses Saturdays to showcase his rage. Meanwhile, the residents of Sokulapalem suffer from various hardships. Police officer Daya (S.J. Suryah) oppresses them, using his authority to perpetrate acts of brutality. Amidst dramatic developments, the hero decides to stand up for the people of Sokulapalem. How does Surya confront the cruel police officer? What challenges does he face in the process? Why does the hero specifically choose Saturday to unleash his fury? What's the love track with heroine Priyanka Mohan? Who wins in the face-off between hero and villain? That forms the story. How Did They Perform? Hero Nani excelled in the role of Surya. He showcased his versatility in the action sequences. Nani's acting in this film is distinct from his previous movies. He also made his mark in emotional scenes. S.J. Suryah as the antagonist was compelling, dominating some scenes over Nani. Both their performances are definitely the highlights of the film. Priyanka Arul Mohan played a settled role as a lady constable, impressing in a character-driven role. The unique love track between Nani and Priyanka will appeal to the audience. Saikumar, Ajay, Murali Sharma, and other actors justified their roles well. How's the Direction? Director Vivek Athreya, recognized for his classical approach in previous films, introduces his mass flair in this movie. Despite using a routine story, his unique making style has won applause. The director devoted much of the first half to introducing characters. Nani's childhood, the concept of Saturday, the introduction to the heroine, and an engaging interval block kept the first half interesting. The second half was filled with Tom and Jerry-like scenes and action sequences between Nani and S.J. Suryah. However, the lengthy duration negatively impacted the film. Some scenes felt too stretched, and the predictability of the storyline also turned out to be a drawback. Technically Speaking On the technical front, Jakes Bejoy's music was captivating, with appealing songs and a background score that added strength to the film, especially enhancing the action sequences. The cinematography also stood out. The editor could have been a bit sharper with the cuts. Production values were high. Plus Points - Nani and S.J. Suryah's performances - Action sequences - Introduction, interval, and climax episodes Minus Points - Lengthy duration - Lack of twists Rating by Telugu.yousay.tv: 3/5 Public Talk on 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' Netizens who watched 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' are expressing their opinions on platform X. Many posts suggest the film is excellent, especially praising the performances of Nani and S.J. Suryah, which are the main attractions of the film. Based on some social media posts, let's analyze the public opinion. One netizen commented that 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' is a satisfying action drama, noting that the introduction block, interval block, and climax episodes were exceptionally well-executed. https://twitter.com/venkyreviews/status/1828908558198644841 Another netizen noted that while Vivek Athreya's screenplay wasn't spectacular, watching Nani and S.J. Suryah in theaters is a must. The interval bang was excellent, and despite a somewhat boring second half, the film thoroughly entertains the mass audience. https://twitter.com/_NaveenReddy_14/status/1828931798719414466 Netizens are praising the background music, noting that it took the action sequences to another level. One mentioned that the BGM ramped up the excitement significantly. https://twitter.com/Abhi_pkcult/status/1828908519141323179 A user gave a rating of 3/5, complimenting the character introductions and design, while noting that the lack of twists and predictability of scenes were drawbacks. https://twitter.com/chitrambhalareI/status/1828918494358110555 While social media is buzzing with positive reviews for 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram,' there are some negative reviews too. One user suggested that if the focus in the second half matched that of the first, the film could have reached a hundred crore milestone. https://twitter.com/Raktapatham/status/1828908737358438724 Some viewers felt the film's lengthy duration was a downside and suggested trimming about 30 minutes to make it more engaging, noting an excess of boring masala scenes. https://twitter.com/Devara15629882/status/1828909154398023884

      Nani’s 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' Sparks Fan Concerns Ahead of Release
      Nani’s 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' Sparks Fan Concerns Ahead of Release
      Whenever one thinks of a self-made hero from this generation, Nani is the first name that comes to mind. Coming into the industry without any background, Nani has carved out a unique fan base for himself. Meanwhile, Nani's latest movie 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' is set to release this Thursday at a pan-India level. The trailer has already been received with great enthusiasm, boosting the confidence of Nani's fans about the film's success. However, new fears have recently emerged among Nani's fans, leading to their anxiety. What is bothering them? What could be the reasons? Let's find out in this story. Runtime Worries! The natural star Nani stars in 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram,' directed by Vivek Athreya and produced by DVV Danayya. Priyanka Mohan is cast opposite Nani in this film. The movie has just completed its censor formalities and received a U/A certificate, with a fixed runtime of 2 hours and 46 minutes. This has led to concerns among Nani's fans. Their previous movie under the Nani-Vivek Athreya combination, 'Ante Sundaraniki,' had a runtime of 3 hours and ended up disappointing the fans. Now, with 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' also approaching with a lengthy runtime, fans fear a repeat of the previous experience. They believe that even if the story is good, a lengthy runtime could lead to viewer fatigue. Villain Takes the Upper Hand! In 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram,' Tamil actor S.J. Suryah acts as Nani's antagonist, portraying a ruthless police officer. It seems that S.J. Suryah's role might overshadow Nani's, as the hero's role is expected to be quite subdued for the most part. Rumors suggest that the hero will have a significant impact only on Saturdays, with a more relaxed demeanor on other days. Film analysts predict that S.J. Suryah's role will leave a strong impression on the movie. Observing the recent trailer, while Nani's performance was commendable, S.J. Suryah, as the villain, had a more impactful presence. His acting prowess was striking, causing Nani's fans to express their concerns. They fear the situation if S.J. Suryah's performance eclipses their hero's. Revealing the Plot Too Soon! Actor S.J. Suryah is bringing new challenges to the 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' team. During promotional interviews, he has been openly discussing the plot, shocking everyone. He revealed why the hero only becomes active on Saturdays in one interview. At a recent promotional event, he even discussed the film's runtime before the censor was complete. This premature revelation of the movie's key points has led to fan unrest. Fans argue on social media about the loss of intrigue if everything is revealed beforehand. They are using S.J. Suryah's dialogue from the movie 'Maanaadu' – "He comes, he shoots, he repeats" – to ironically describe his current promotional tactics. You'll See the Dance of Shiva in Theaters At the recent pre-release event of 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram,' Hero Nani made intriguing comments. "You will see Vivek's dance of Shiva in theaters on August 29. Everyone has worked hard for this film. It's a milestone. When I was feeling tense about the film, just listening to Jakes Bejoy's music took all that tension away. Bring extra bags of paper; Jakes has put in a lot of effort. Producer Danayya is a very positive person. He hopes for the best for the film. That's why good stories are always searching for him," said Nani, highlighting the collective effort and the anticipation surrounding the movie.

      Natural Star Nani: Indirect Warning to 'Pushpa 2' Team?
      Natural Star Nani: Indirect Warning to 'Pushpa 2' Team?
      Prominent directors and producers in Tollywood are adopting a new trend by announcing release dates even before the completion of movie shootings. Due to delays and other issues during production, they often have to quickly announce new dates if they fail to release on the initially promised date. This practice of locking dates in advance for big-budget movies is reportedly causing issues for smaller films and tier-2 heroes. Natural Star Nani has responded strongly to this issue, which has become a hot topic in the industry. 'That attitude is not correct' It is natural for films to be postponed. Reasons such as adjustments of actor dates, VFX delays, and other shooting delays often lead to postponements. However, the frequency of delays has increased recently. Nani has made fiery comments about the practice of announcing release dates without certainty and then postponing them. During promotions for "Saripodhaa Sanivaaram," he addressed this issue, stating, "Announcing a release date without clarity harms many. We should set a date only if the movie is ready; otherwise, we should wait. This attitude of announcing a date and then changing it isn’t right." These comments have sparked significant discussion within Tollywood, with both industry insiders and netizens supporting Nani’s views. Warning to 'Pushpa 2' Team? Nani did not specifically mention any film in his latest comments, but industry circles are discussing that he was referring to the 'Pushpa 2' team. Reportedly, Nani's "Saripodhaa Sanivaaram" was initially targeted for an August 15 release at the beginning of its production. However, since Allu Arjun's 'Pushpa 2' had already locked that date, the "Saripodhaa" team had to reschedule for late August (August 29). Unexpectedly, the 'Pushpa 2' team moved their release to December 6, releasing a special poster to announce it. This shift allowed other films like "Double iSmart," "Mr. Bachchan," "Thangalaan," and "Aay" to move their schedules to August 15. Considering this, Nani had to bring his film on August 29. The timing of 'Pushpa 2' locking August 15 initially led to the loss of a long weekend for "Saripodhaa Sanivaaram," prompting speculation that Nani's comments were an indirect warning to them. Run Time Fixed for Nani’s Movie! Nani's latest film "Saripodhaa Sanivaaram," directed by Vivek Athreya, is set to release on Thursday, August 29. Priyanka Arul Mohan stars as the heroine. The film has recently completed its censor formalities and has reportedly received a U/A certification. S.J. Suryah, who plays the villain, revealed that the runtime has been fixed at 2 hours and 50 minutes. This follows the earlier Nani-Vivek Athreya collaboration "Ante Sundaraniki," which also had a runtime of around three hours.

      Yellamma: Young Hero Confirmed for Balagam Venu’s Project, Nani and Teja Sajja Replaced!
      Venu Yeldandi, who entered the industry as a comedian, built his career by playing small roles initially. He then gained popularity as a team leader in the 'Jabardasth' comedy show. Shifting gears to directing, Venu's last year's film 'Balagam' was a blockbuster success, set against a rural Telangana background and received critical acclaim. Naturally, all eyes were on Venu's next project. However, a year after 'Balagam', the absence of a new project announcement from Venu sparked mixed reactions among fans. Amidst this, there’s a strong buzz that Venu has locked a project with a young hero. Venu Directing Nithiin! Venu Yeldandi had previously announced that his second film would be under the banner of producer Dil Raju, who also produced 'Balagam'. The story for this second movie has been ready for a while, and Venu is expected to start production soon. It is rumored that he will be directing young hero Nithiin in his next film. Nithiin has reportedly agreed to the project after some changes were made to the story. If all goes well, the film is expected to start soon. The film, known as 'Yellamma', has also been registered as a title, generating buzz in Tollywood. Nani, Teja Sajja Rejected! Initially, there was significant buzz that Venu Yeldandi's next project would feature Natural Star Nani. Venu had pitched the 'Yellamma' story to Nani, but he was reportedly not satisfied with the second half of the script. Venu stood by the story, leading to Nani's withdrawal from the project. Subsequently, the story was pitched to Teja Sajja, who initially agreed, but this combination did not materialize due to unavoidable reasons. Finally, Venu presented the story to Nithiin, who gave his approval. When Does Shooting Start? Venu Yeldandi’s 'Yellamma' is set to start shooting in February next year. The announcement was made by producer Dil Raju during the pre-release event of 'Janaka Ayithe Ganaka'. Venu was also present at the event. As Venu approached the stage, Dil Raju from the audience asked about Yellamma's start date. Venu humorously replied, "You are the master of all actions here; you tell us. I'm ready to start tomorrow if you say so." To which Dil Raju clarified, "Let’s start in February." https://twitter.com/i/status/1844354638587498984 Awards Galore for 'Balagam' The film 'Balagam', starring comedian Priyadarshi and Kavya Kalyanram, released on March 3 last year, without much initial hype but greatly attracted family audiences, especially from rural areas of Telangana.

      Saripodhaa Sanivaaram Weekend Collections: ‘Saripodhaa Sanivaaram’ is unstoppable even with Heavy Rains.
      Nani's latest film 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' (Saripodhaa Sanivaaram Weekend Collections) released on Thursday (August 29) has garnered positive buzz. Along with Nani, the villain played by S.J. Suryah has received accolades from the audience. Consequently, the film is creating a storm at the box office. Despite continuous heavy rains across Telugu states over the past three days, Nani's film's momentum has not slowed down. Furthermore, daily theater occupancy has been increasing. In this context, how much did Nani's film collect over the weekend? Let's look at the collections for the first four days. Weekend Collections: How much? The film "Saripodhaa Sanivaaram," starring Nani as the hero and Priyanka Arul Mohan as the female lead, is exceeding everyone's expectations and is showering the box office with collections. The makers have officially announced that the film has grossed ₹68.72 crores worldwide in the first four days. They also released a special poster to mark this achievement. According to trade sources, "Saripodhaa Sanivaaram" has collected ₹33.50 crores in India and ₹18 crores overseas. The film has reportedly earned ₹29.65 crores in the two Telugu states. Additionally, it has collected ₹4.65 crores in Karnataka, ₹3.23 crores in Tamil Nadu, ₹27 lakhs in Kerala, and ₹1.45 crores in the rest of India. Heading towards the ₹100 crore mark... Given the performance of 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' at the box office, it appears easily poised to reach the ₹100 crore mark. It has already collected nearly ₹60 crores in just four days. Trade circles believe that if not for the cyclonic conditions in Telugu states, the collections could have been even higher. If the rain impact diminishes, 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' has a chance to significantly increase its collections, potentially crossing ₹100 crores effortlessly. Nani's film 'Dasara' was the only one to surpass ₹100 crores in his career so far. Fans are eagerly anticipating this to be his second film to cross that mark. Coming to OTT in a month..! 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' (Saripodhaa Sanivaaram OTT), the film by Nani in collaboration with Vivek Athreya, is set to debut on OTT platforms within a month. Strong buzz suggests it will stream on Netflix starting September 26, available in Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam. However, there is no clear information yet about the Hindi version. There's also a possibility that the Hindi version might stream on Jio Cinema. Depending on the collections and audience response, changes to the OTT release date might occur. Highlights of the film Vivek Athreya, recognized as a classic director from his films 'Mental Madhilo', 'Brochevarevarura', and 'Ante Sundaraniki', introduces his rural mass style through this film. Differing from his usual style, the film is crafted with breathtaking action scenes and has been receiving accolades. Nani and S.J. Suryah's performances, the action sequences, and the background music by Jakes Bejoy are major highlights. Notably, the Tom and Jerry-style scenes between the hero and the villain have delighted the audience. However, the film's length, lack of twists, missing commercial elements, and a predictable storyline are seen as drawbacks. 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' Storyline Surya (Nani), working as an LIC agent, cannot tolerate injustice. He chooses Saturdays to unleash his anger. Meanwhile, the people of Sokulapalem suffer under the tyranny of police officer Daya (S.J. Suryah), who abuses his power to oppress them. Amid dramatic events, the hero decides to stand with the people of Sokulapalem. How does Surya confront the ruthless police officer? What challenges does he face in the process?

      Natural Star Nani continues to impress with a variety of films. His latest, 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram,' directed by Vivek Athreya, was released on August 29 and received widespread positive feedback. Alongside Nani, S.J. Suryah's role as the villain has been particularly praised by audiences, though some aspects have been critiqued on social media. Overall, Nani's film has garnered positive reviews and achieved impressive first-day earnings. Let's look at the details now. What are the first day collections?

Compared to 'Dasara,' 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram' earned about ₹18 crores less, yet it still holds the record for the second-highest opening in Nani's career.

      Priyanka Mohan's Journey from Engineer to South Cinema Star: Celebrating Her Rise on Her Birthday!
      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.

"I Cried Out to My Sister" While shooting 'Shyam Singha Roy' at night, Sai Pallavi was also attending another movie set during the day, which left her mentally exhausted. One night, her sister Pooja Kannan visited, and Sai Pallavi broke down while talking to her, expressing her inability to stop her tears and her desire for a day off. Moved by her plight, her sister went directly to the producer of 'Shyam Singha Roy', Venkat Boyanapalli, and pleaded for a day off, saying, "My sister is crying, please give her at least one day off." The producer responded immediately, "Take ten days off. Do what you need to, and when you feel everything is fine, come back to the shooting." Sai Pallavi Stuns as a Devadasi In 'Shyam Singha Roy', directed by Rahul Sankrityan and starring Nani, the film was a huge success at the box office.

      Rana Daggubati Drops Truth Bomb on Box Office Collections and Promises a Revamped 'Rana Naidu 2'
      Rana Daggubati Drops Truth Bomb on Box Office Collections and Promises a Revamped 'Rana Naidu 2'
      In the past, a movie's success wasn't just measured by its collections but by how long it played in theaters. However, that's not the case anymore. Nowadays, a movie's success is decided based on its collections. As part of this shift, filmmakers also hype up daily earnings to build excitement among audiences. There are frequent comments within the industry suggesting that the collections announced by makers are far from reality. In this context, popular actor Rana Daggubati made some sensational remarks about movie collections. A video related to this has gone viral online. What did Rana say about collections? Rana Daggubati, a well-known actor in Tollywood, gained Pan-India fame after his roles in 'Baahubali' and 'Baahubali 2'. Recently, he appeared as the antagonist in Rajinikanth’s movie 'Vettaiyan'. In a recent interview, Rana made interesting comments about movie collections, saying, "Box office numbers are just a comedy. Many people might not know, but the numbers on posters are just for time pass. They are not real numbers. They are just for marketing purposes. They don’t relate to the actual gross or final money made." These comments by Rana went viral and became a topic of discussion in Tollywood. Fans are posting whether the crores claimed for our heroes' movies are real or not. https://twitter.com/i/status/1858578978132685054 This time, less profanity... There were significant criticisms of the first web series 'Rana Naidu', which Rana did with his uncle Victory Venkatesh, especially since Venkatesh is known for connecting well with family audiences and they were unable to accept the use of profanity in the series. Due to dissatisfaction about the series not being suitable for family viewing, there is news of an upcoming Part 2. In this context, Rana spoke about Season 2, stating that the shooting for the second series is complete and that the content and language will be improved this time. However, he reminded that the first series was advised not to be watched by family audiences, but no one heeded the advice, leading to severe trolling. Rana’s Talk Show on Amazon Tollywood hero Nandamuri Balakrishna’s host role in the talk show 'Unstoppable' has been a huge success, well-known for creating a buzz on the OTT platform Aha. Amazon Prime is now planning a talk show with Rana Daggubati as the host. 'The Rana Daggubati Show' is set to stream starting November 23. It's reported that Ram Gopal Varma, Nani, Naga Chaitanya, Dulquer Salmaan, Siddhu Jonnalagadda, Teja Sajja, and Sreeleela will appear as guests. Rana mentioned in a recent interview that the first season will have 8 episodes, each lasting over 40 minutes. He expressed a desire to invite Prabhas and Balakrishna to the show and is in talks to make a decision soon, which has immensely pleased the fans of both the Rebel and Nandamuri camps.
