Chiranjeevi's Remake Telugu movies: A Journey Through Hits and Misses in Telugu Cinema


Akkineni Nageswara Rao (ANR), one of the foundational pillars of Tollywood, needs no special introduction. Recognized as a Dadasaheb Phalke Award recipient, Padma Vibhushan, and Natasamrat, he left an indelible mark on the industry. Born on September 20, 1924, as his centenary completes today, fans globally are celebrating his 100th birth anniversary. Although widely known as a legendary actor, not everyone is aware that he was also an excellent dancer. In fact, he was the one who introduced dance to Tollywood, a fact that might be unknown to this generation. Let’s delve into this special report to learn more about it.

The Pioneer of Dance in Tollywood



Looking back to the early days of Tollywood, dance was not a primary focus when the industry first began. Leading actors were not keen on dancing; their focus was entirely on how to act and express emotions to captivate the audience. This was particularly noticeable between the 1960s and 1970s. When heroines danced, heroes would often just stand by, a point of criticism at the time. However, Akkineni Nageswara Rao completely changed these dynamics. While many associate Tollywood dance primarily with Megastar Chiranjeevi, it was Nageswara Rao who laid the groundwork for dance in the industry, making it an essential skill for heroes, matching and even excelling alongside heroines in dance. At one point, seeing Nageswara Rao’s dance, contemporaries like Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao, Superstar Krishna, Shobhan Babu, and Krishnam Raju also began to emphasize dance in their films.







Audiences Mesmerized by Akkineni's Steps!



In the 1971 film 'Dasara Bullodu', ANR’s performance in the song ‘Ettage Unnadi Olammi’ was mesmerizing. Similarly, in 'Bangaru Babu', his dance to 'Chengavi Rangu Cheera' electrified audiences who, until then, primarily enjoyed songs for their auditory appeal. Specifically, his dance in 'Prem Nagar' for the song ‘Nenu Puttanu Lokam Navvindi’ became a trendsetter. Additionally, his competitive dance with Sridevi in 'Premabhishekam' for the song 'Ne Kallu Chebuthunnayi' delighted everyone. He also matched steps with Megastar Chiranjeevi in the film 'Mechanic Alludu'. There’s a long list of such performances, some of which are linked below for a glimpse into his prowess.

Inspired by Nageswara Rao...



Even Megastar Chiranjeevi, known for his dance, was inspired by Nageswara Rao at one point. It’s said that Chiru enhanced the importance of dance in films after watching Nageswara Rao’s movies. In an event, Chiranjeevi made interesting remarks about ANR's influence, noting that after watching Chiru’s dance, one might wonder if his body actually had any bones at all. Over the decades, as Chiranjeevi became a peerless hero in acting and dancing, he carried forward the legacy initiated by Nageswara Rao, which now continues with stars like Allu Arjun, Ram Charan, NTR, and Ram Pothineni.

Interesting Post by Balakrishna



On the occasion of ANR's 100th birth anniversary, actor Balakrishna posted a touching tribute, expressing pride in remembering Nageswara Rao. He noted that ANR's iconic roles and invaluable contributions to Telugu cinema are unforgettable and serve as a guiding light to all actors. Balakrishna urged everyone to express their gratitude for the immense services ANR provided to the film industry, from theater to cinema. His journey is an inspiration to all.

Tabu, a name that resonates deeply with Telugu cinema enthusiasts, has carved a remarkable journey in Indian cinema. Though currently making waves in Bollywood, she once dominated the Telugu film industry with blockbusters like 'Coolie No. 1', 'Ninne Pelladata', 'Aavida Maa Aavide', 'Prema Desam', and 'Chennakesava Reddy'. As she celebrates her 54th birthday, let's delve into the fascinating life of this evergreen actress.



Early Life and Career Beginnings



Born as Tabassum Fatima Hashmi in 1971, Tabu's early years were spent in Hyderabad.

Prasad Film &amp; TV Academy. He started making short films on YouTube at the age of 17 and has directed over 30 short films to date.







Creativity in Short Films



Typically, YouTube short films are made on a low budget and are not expected to meet high standards. However, Sujeeth's films like 'Run Raja Run', 'Prema Ishq Kaadhal', 'Thokkalo Love Story', 'Vesham', 'Yuddham', 'Prema Care of Drama', and 'Indian Idol' surprised the film industry with their richness and showcased his mesmerizing creativity.

Initial Family Resistance



When Sujeeth expressed his desire to become a director, his family was initially reluctant. However, seeing his dedication to cinema, they eventually supported his decision. His mother even bought him his first camera with her own money, marking the beginning of his journey in the industry.







Guidance from Puri Jagannadh



Upon entering the industry with the aim to direct, Sujeeth initially decided to work as an assistant director under Puri Jagannadh. Meeting him, Puri recognized Sujeeth's abundant directorial skills and encouraged him to pursue directing.







Director at 23



While trying for a directorial break, UV Creations recognized Sujeeth's talent and offered him a chance to direct 'Run Raja Run'. Thus, at just 23, Sujeeth became a director and achieved solid success with his debut film.







Turning a Short Film into a Feature



Interestingly, 'Run Raja Run', which brought him significant recognition, was originally a short film that Sujeeth transformed into his first full-length feature by making a few changes to the story.







Before 'Baahubali'



UV Creations, which produced Prabhas's 'Mirchi', planned a second film with him and accepted a story from Sujeeth, which Prabhas liked. However, 'Baahubali' has not been released yet. After 'Baahubali', Prabhas's fame skyrocketed, leading Sujeeth to make adjustments to the story, and thus 'Saaho' was made on a pan-India scale. Despite not achieving expected success, Sujeeth's work at such a young age surprised everyone.

From Fan to Directing Pawan Kalyan



Sujeeth has been a fervent fan of Power Star Pawan Kalyan, mentioning in interviews that he went to see 'Johnny' with a band around his head and kept it for seven days. He also attended 'Gabbar Singh' release as a rally. Rising from that stage to directing Pawan Kalyan in 'OG' is no small feat.







Love for Japanese Cinema



Director Sujeeth has a special affinity for Japanese cinema, which he openly discussed in interviews. He mentioned that Japanese films also influenced 'OG', the film he is currently directing with Pawan Kalyan.

The Boy Who Wore 'Johnny' Headband for 7 Days Now Directs His Icon Pawan Kalyan: Sujeeth's Story


Directed by Koratala Siva and starring Jr. NTR, 'Devara: Part 1' has created a storm at the box office, becoming the biggest hit of Tarak's career. The sea fight sequence in particular has thrilled audiences, and Koratala Siva's creativity has been widely praised. However, there's a growing controversy online suggesting that these were not entirely Siva's original ideas, but rather direct copies from a Korean film. Here's the video that's trending as evidence.



What Actually Happened?



The introduction and interval scenes in 'Devara' are so dynamic that they're bound to give anyone goosebumps. No one expected a Telugu director to execute such an elaborate action sequence at sea. The film features a scene where the hero, along with his gang, goes to a ship to steal weapons, dumping the gun-filled crates into the sea. Members of the hero's gang, already stationed in small boats, then retrieve these crates to smuggle them past the naval officers. Yet, netizens are surprised to find a strikingly similar scene in a Korean movie, accusing director Koratala Siva of plagiarism. Audiences are mocking the director for fooling them, urging everyone to check out the Korean movie scene.

That Scene Too!



It's known that Tarak plays a dual role in 'Devara.' Initially, as part of the villain's gang, 'Devara' participates in smuggling for some compelling reasons but later turns good. Meanwhile, he also instills fear among his peers against smuggling. The director showcases a sequence with chairs filled with knives along the coast. However, this scene has also been accused of being copied, with claims that it closely resembles a scene from the Hollywood film 'Vikings.'




https://twitter.com/BackupBrainy/status/1833835236465029376




Is the Story of Devara Also Copied?



There were extensive promotions before the release of 'Devara' claiming that its story was adapted from a copyrighted novel. Tamil director Shankar recently accused that he saw key scenes from his copyrighted novel being used in a film, stressing that creators should respect rights and avoid copying without permission, warning of legal actions. However, Shankar did not clarify which film he referred to. But, the buzz on social media suggests that the story of 'Devara' closely mirrors the Tamil novel 'Veera Yug Nayagan,' for which Shankar holds the rights.







Similar Accusations in the Past



This is not the first time Koratala Siva has faced plagiarism accusations. He was also heavily criticized during the release of 'Srimanthudu' with Mahesh Babu. Writer Sharath Chandra even took the matter to court, claiming his story was copied. The issue had created a sensation across the Telugu states back then. In 2012, Sharath had published his story 'Chachentha Prema' in Swati Monthly, and while he was planning to adapt it into a film, he accused Koratala Siva of making 'Srimanthudu' based on his story.






SHOCKING: 'Devara' Director Koratala Siva Under Fire - Blockbuster Sea Sequence Allegedly Copied from Korean Film; Shankar Hints at Legal Action Over Story Rights!


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.






Tollywood's Emerging Directors: Redefining the Role of Heroines


Tollywood actor Akkineni Naga Chaitanya and renowned actress Sobhita Dhulipala are soon to be united in marriage. Their engagement ceremony was recently held in the presence of family members, a grand affair announced personally by Akkineni Nagarjuna, which quickly went viral. However, Naga Chaitanya was previously married to star actress Samantha. Due to disagreements, they separated. With Naga Chaitanya's recent engagement, the topic of his divorce has resurfaced. There is also a discussion online suggesting that marriages do not seem to last in the Akkineni family, with netizens recalling that nearly four couples within the family have gone through divorces. Let's now look into the details of these instances.



The Akkineni Family



Even before the divorce between Naga Chaitanya and Samantha, four other couples in the family had already ended their marriages. The legendary actor Akkineni Nageswara Rao and Annapurnamma had five children, among them, Akkineni Nagarjuna became a well-known actor. Their eldest son, Akkineni Venkat, produced several films. Their daughter, Satyavati's children, Sumanth and Supriya, are also well-recognized in the Telugu film industry. Another daughter, Nagasusheela's son Sushanth, is also making his mark as an actor.

Nagarjuna’s Divorce







Sumanth’s Divorce



Sumanth, the nephew of Nagarjuna and son of Satyavati and Surendra Yarlagadda, was doing well in his career when he fell in love with actress Keerthi Reddy, famed for 'Tholi Prema'. They married in August 2004 but, for unknown reasons, divorced two years later. Keerthi Reddy settled in Bangalore, while Sumanth has remained single and is recently becoming busy with films again.







Tragedy in Supriya’s Life



Sumanth's sister, Supriya Yarlagadda, also faced a similar situation. She debuted as an actress in the movie 'Akkada Ammayi Ikkada Abbayi', starring Pawan Kalyan. Later, she distanced herself from acting and got more involved in film production. Eventually, she married an actor named Charan Reddy with the approval of her elders, but their marriage did not last long. Charan Reddy passed away due to health issues, and since then, she has been living alone.







Cancellation of Akhil’s Marriage



Before the marriage of Naga Chaitanya and Samantha, Akhil Akkineni was ready to tie the knot. His engagement also took place with Shriya Bhupal, a relative of Ram Charan’s wife Upasana. However, this did not lead to marriage. For some reasons, Akhil and Shriya's wedding was canceled. Following the cancellation, Shriya Bhupal married another man, while Akhil has been striving for success in the film industry.







Naga Chaitanya and Samantha’s Divorce



In 2017, Naga Chaitanya and Samantha got married in Goa, after a love that blossomed following their acquaintance during the making of the movie ‘Ye Maaya Chesave’ in 2010. After seven years of being in a relationship, they got married and were recognized as Tollywood’s cute couple. Unexpectedly, they divorced in 2021, shocking fans and the entire cinema world. At that time, Samantha was heavily criticized, with some blaming her bold roles in films post-marriage as the reason for their separation.






Ties and Tangles: The Marital Saga of the Akkineni Family


Tamil cinema's star, Vishal, is popular not only in Tamil but also in Telugu cinema for his action-packed films, which have garnered a massive following. Known for his direct approach, Vishal often finds himself in the midst of controversies. Recently, he has become the center of a new dispute with the Tamil Producers Council. In this context, he posted a defiant message on X (formerly Twitter), stating, "Try to stop me." What prompted Vishal to post this? What is the nature of his controversy with the producers' council? Let’s delve into the details.



What happened?



Vishal previously served as the President of the Tamil Film Producers Council (TFPC). During his tenure, he faced allegations of misusing Rs. 12 crores. More recently, Vishal indirectly targeted the Tamil Nadu government and some producers in his comments about the monopoly over theaters in Tamil Nadu. He criticized the control a few individuals have over movie release timings and their overarching control of the cinema industry. Aggravated by these remarks, the TFPC imposed sanctions on him and issued an ultimatum that films should no longer be made with Vishal involved.







Vishal's Strong Warning!



Firmly opposing the orders of the TFPC, Vishal posted an interesting tweet, making it clear that he will not stop making films regardless of the circumstances. He warned that those who call themselves producers will never be able to produce films if they try to stop him. He also attempted to clarify the allegations regarding the misuse of funds in his post, asserting that the funds were used for the welfare of council members, providing health insurance to the elderly and economically struggling. "Didn’t Mr. Kathiresan know this decision was made with your team? Just do your job properly. There's a lot to be done for the industry, including dealing with double taxation and managing theater expenses. I will keep making films. Try to stop me," he wrote in a lengthy post on X, which has now gone viral. It remains to be seen how the Tamil Producers Council will respond to these comments.

How is Vishal popular?



Belonging to the Tamil film industry, Vishal, born to producer G.K. Reddy on August 29, 1975, made his film debut with 'Prema Chadarangam' (2004). Although primarily active in Tamil cinema, many of his films have been dubbed into Telugu, bringing him fame in Telugu-speaking regions as well. Films like 'Pandem Kodi', 'Pogaru', 'Bharani', 'Pooja', and 'Abhimanyudu' have made him popular among Telugu audiences. Recently, Vishal appeared in the Telugu audience with 'Rathnam' (2024), which did not make a significant impact. He is currently acting in 'Thupparivaalan 2', a sequel to the 2017 film 'Detective'.

<strong>Telugu Dumb Charades(Damsharas): Top 100 Movie Titles, Songs, Dialogues</strong>


Sai Pallavi, recognized as one of the leading actresses in Tollywood, made her cinematic debut with the Malayalam film 'Premam'. She won the hearts of Telugu audiences with 'Fidaa'. Her captivating acting skills and mesmerizing dance performances have left an indelible mark on the Telugu film industry. Recently, her Tamil film 'Amaran' achieved pan-Indian release and was a huge hit. In an interview with a channel about Amaran's success, Sai Pallavi made interesting remarks about her challenging experiences physically and mentally during the shooting of 'Shyam Singha Roy' with Nani.



Why?



Directed by Periyasamy and starring Sivakarthikeyan, 'Amaran' revolves around the life of a martyred army soldier and was a massive box office success, grossing over Rs. 180 crores. In this context, Sai Pallavi discussed her latest film and mentioned the difficulties she faced during the filming of 'Shyam Singha Roy'. She revealed that night shoots were especially challenging for her, stating that the majority of her scenes in 'Shyam Singha Roy' were filmed at night, which meant she had to stay awake until dawn. This continued for about 30 days, making her situation almost unbearable.







"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. It featured themes of reincarnation, with Nani playing dual roles as Vasu and Shyam Singha Roy, a character from the 1970s. Sai Pallavi excelled in the role of Devadasi Maitreyi, captivating the audience with her emotional performance and unparalleled dance skills, elevating her status as an actress. Her portrayal of the life of Devadasis was lauded as beyond praise. After the release of 'Shyam Singha Roy', the audience equally praised Sai Pallavi's performance alongside Nani.







Sai Pallavi's Projects



Currently, Sai Pallavi is working with director Chandoo Mondeti on the film 'Thandel', co-starring Naga Chaitanya.

Sai Pallavi Opens Up About the Emotional Toll of Filming 'Shyam Singha Roy': I Cried Out to My Sister for Help


Cast: Karthi, Aravind Swamy, Srividya, Rajkiran, among others.



Written and Directed by: C. Prem Kumar



Music by: Govind Vasantha



Cinematography: Mahendran Jayaraju



Editing by: R. Govind Raju



Produced by: Jyothika, Suriya



Release Date: 28-09-2024



In the C. Prem Kumar directorial, starring Tamil star hero Karthi who previously delighted audiences with feel-good movies like '96', the film titled 'Meiyazhagan' in Tamil, has been brought to the Telugu audience as 'Satyam Sundaram'. Aravind Swamy plays a pivotal role in this film, which is notably produced under the banner of 2D Entertainment by Suriya and Jyothika. Released today (September 28), how does this film fare? Did it manage to impress the audience? Let's delve into the review.



What's the Story



Satyam (Aravind Swamy), hailing from Guntur, leaves his home and village due to property disputes and relocates to Visakhapatnam. After 30 years, a situation arises requiring him to return to his village for his niece’s wedding. Upon his return, Satyam reconnects with a relative (Karthi) at the wedding. Calling each other 'Bava' (brother-in-law), they bond over numerous conversations. Initially irritated by Karthi’s intrusive manners, Satyam eventually warms up to his affection and admiration. What turns does their journey take? How does Satyam rediscover himself through this journey? What is the nature of his relationship with the person he calls 'Bava'? Does he finally remember his name, or not? That forms the rest of the story.







How Did They Perform



Aravind Swamy perfectly embodies Satyam, taking us along on his journey through his remarkable performance. We feel every emotion that Satyam experiences, from his pain to his discomfort. Karthi charms once again with his innocence, captivating as a typical young man from a village showing boundless love. This role will be remembered as a highlight in Karthi’s career. Devadarshini, playing the wife of Aravind Swamy, delivers a commendable performance. Having previously only played comedic and supporting roles, she proves her ability to handle a role with depth with ease. Srividya, Rajkiran, and Jayaprakash, although in minor roles, significantly impact the story. The rest of the cast performed well within their roles.







Direction



The director, C. Prem Kumar, attempts to convey that for a person to live happily, the presence of a loving individual is as necessary as money and fame. The film starts intriguingly, showing why Satyam left his village. His return for a wedding, the introduction of Karthi’s character, his mischief, and the troubles Satyam faces with Karthi unknowingly, are all portrayed entertainingly. The director shifts the setting to Karthi’s home, where Satyam’s experiences are heartfelt and take the audience back in time. The mental turmoil Satyam goes through upon not recognizing Karthi adds weight to the narrative. The climax is also well-executed.
