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'.






Vishal vs Tamil Producers Council Controversy in Kollywood!


Cast: NTR, Janhvi Kapoor, Saif Ali Khan, Shruti Marathe, Prakash Raj, Srikanth, Shine Tom Chacko, and others.



Written and Directed by: Koratala Siva



Music by: Anirudh Ravichander



Cinematography by: R. Rathnavelu



Editing by: A. Sreekar Prasad



Produced by: Sudhakar Mikkilineni, Kosaraju Harikrishna, Nandamuri Kalyan Ram



Release Date: September 27, 2024



NTR stars in an action drama 'Devara', directed by Koratala Siva, with Janhvi Kapoor as the heroine. NTR returns to dual roles after many years, portraying the characters of Devara and Vara. The promotional materials already released have heightened expectations. Saif Ali Khan plays the antagonist, with significant roles being filled by Prakash Raj, Srikanth, and Shine Tom Chacko. The movie has completed all its schedules and released worldwide on September 27. But how is the film? Does it meet the expectations? Has it impressed the audience or not? Let's find out in this review.







The Story



Located on a hill at the border between Andhra and Tamil Nadu are four villages collectively known as the Red Sea. Here, Devara (NTR) along with Bhairava (Saif Ali Khan), Rayappa (Srikanth), and Kunjara (Shine Tom Chacko) serve as the heads of each village. Their job involves smuggling goods through the sea to Murugan (Murali Sharma) without getting caught by authorities. However, realizing the damage caused, Devara decides to put an end to their smuggling activities. Bhairava disagrees, sparking a conflict between them. Devara instills deep fear in everyone. Bhairava then plans to kill Devara. Does his plan succeed? What pivotal decision does Devara make to stop the smuggling? Why does his son Vara (NTR) become fearful? Who kills Bhairava's men trying to enter the sea? How does Vara's romance with Thangam (Janhvi Kapoor) develop? What is Devara’s connection with gangster Yathi? Watch the movie to know.







Performances



There's no need to specifically mention Tarak's acting; he immerses himself in any role he takes. In this movie, too, he impresses as both Devara and Vara, bringing variations that captivate the audience. He reaffirms his prowess in action scenes and dazzles in dance sequences. Janhvi Kapoor, making her Tollywood debut, fits perfectly as the village girl Thangam, appearing authentic as a Telugu girl, though her screen time is brief. Bollywood star Saif Ali Khan captivates as the villain, making a strong impact in a role that competes with Tarak's. Srikanth, Prakash Raj, Ajay, Murali Sharma, Shruti, and others play significant roles, with other actors performing well within their limits.







Direction



Director Koratala Siva creates a new world named 'Red Sea' and attempts to weave drama and emotions in his unique style. The first half unfolds the story of the Red Sea, the characters Devara and Bhaira, their transformation into smugglers, their conflicts, songs, and the terror Devara instills, all showcased effectively by Koratala. The interval bang is also excellently planned. While the first half revolves around Devara, the second half introduces Vara. The entry of the second NTR is well-executed, but the story seems stretched afterwards. Janhvi Kapoor’s scenes feel forced, except for a song, and the rest seem tedious. The pre-climax action scenes inside the sea are spectacular, but the climax, while engaging, reminds one of the movie Baahubali. Koratala sets up for a part two, ending Devara's story. However, the second part lacks the impact of the first, with a weak love track, dragged scenes, predictable narrative, and missing the typical Koratala mark being the downsides.







Technically



On the technical front, all departments have performed well. Anirudh's background music is another major strength of the movie, enhancing the film with his distinctive BGM. The songs are good, with 'Chuttammalle' likely to generate whistles in theatres. Rathnavelu's cinematography is excellent, richly presenting each scene. Editing is decent. The production values are high, sparing no expense.







Plus Points



- NTR's performance



- First half



- Cinematography



- Music



Minus Points



- Second part



- Weak love track



Rating by Telugu.yousay.tv: 3/5

Devara Public Talk


Devara Movie Review: : Jr. NTR’s Stellar Acting Overshadowed by an Uneven Narrative


With Powerstar Pawan Kalyan's entry into AP politics, his focus on cinema has significantly diminished. As a result, his movies 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu', 'OG', and 'Ustaad Bhagat Singh' have been pending for some time. However, there has been recent movement in these projects, except for 'Ustaad Bhagat Singh'. The other two have resumed shooting, and the release date for 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu' has also been announced by the makers. It was believed that among Pawan’s three projects, 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu' would release first. But now, the situation seems to have changed according to the buzz online.



Will OG Release First?



'OG', directed by young director Sujeeth, is in Pawan Kalyan’s pipeline. The latest buzz suggests that 'OG' might be released before 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu'. Young and dynamic director Sujeeth is reportedly planning to release the movie quickly. Given the higher buzz around 'OG', the film team is considering releasing it first. They are planning to quickly complete Pawan’s shooting part and start post-production work. Discussions with Pawan are underway to announce the release date soon, which has got Pawan’s fans very excited.







Hari Hara Must Step Back!



'Hari Hara Veera Mallu', starring Pawan, is an upcoming period action drama. This film was the first among his three projects to start. Director Krish launched the movie back in 2020. Despite several breaks, Krish has completed 60% of the shooting. However, Krish stepped away from the project during the election period as Pawan was fully engaged in politics. Producer Ratnam’s son, director Jyothi Krishna, has taken over the responsibilities to complete the remaining shooting. With Pawan’s consent post-elections, they have also announced that the film will hit theaters on March 28, 2025. Now, with 'OG' potentially releasing first, 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu' might face new challenges. If Pawan supports the early release of 'OG', analysts believe that the team behind 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu' will have no choice but to delay their release. It remains to be seen what will happen.







Why All the Hype Around OG?



Of all Pawan Kalyan’s current projects, 'OG' is considered very special. For the first time in his career, Pawan is playing a gangster role. Fans have already decided that this movie will be something extraordinary after seeing Pawan's acting in the glimpses of 'OG'. The film also stars Priyanka Mohan, with Bollywood star Emraan Hashmi playing the antagonist. Arjun Das, Sriya Reddy, Prakash Raj, Harish Uthaman, and Abhimanyu Singh hold key roles. The makers plan to release the movie in Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam. Director Sujeeth previously mentioned a connection with Japanese elements in the film, raising fan expectations to a whole new level.

What About 'Ustaad Bhagat Singh'?



After the blockbuster 'Gabbar Singh', Pawan Kalyan and director Harish Shankar are reuniting for 'Ustaad Bhagat Singh'. Until the AP elections, there were frequent updates raising expectations high, but Harish Shankar has been quiet for a while. However, with 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu' and 'OG' going back on sets, fans are hopeful that 'Ustaad' will soon resume. In this film, Power Star Pawan Kalyan is playing a beloved police role, which has greatly excited the fans. With two glimpses already released and well-received, the industry insiders suggest that an update on this movie will also be coming soon.

Half Saree Function Songs List: Melody Songs to Play During a Half Saree Function


Among the industrialists India takes pride in, Ratan Naval Tata definitely holds a top position. Recognized as a business tycoon, he has prioritized societal welfare throughout his life. His passing brought about a wave of mourning across millions of people. Social media was flooded with posts lamenting the loss of such a great person. Amidst this, the idea of a biopic on Ratan Tata gained traction, with netizens expressing enthusiasm for such a film. This raises the question: which Telugu actor would best fit Ratan Tata's biopic? Who would do justice to the role? Let's evaluate.



Who would do justice?



It's well-known that Ratan Tata's life was no bed of roses. He faced numerous challenges and humiliations to reach his position. His life can be described as an emotional journey. Playing such a character is no trivial matter. Looking at the current roster of actors, Ram Charan comes to mind as a capable choice. His appearance as a business tycoon could be convincingly adapted to resemble Ratan Tata with some makeup adjustments. Similarly, actor Nani seems like a fitting choice to portray Ratan Tata, capable of embodying the emotional depth of Tata's life. Mahesh Babu also appears suitable for the Ratan Tata biopic, as his portrayal of a multinational company's CEO in 'Maharshi' was well-received. Adivi Sesh, known for biopics, could also do justice to the role, as he is known for transforming himself to fit his characters. Overall, there are quite a few options in Telugu cinema for the Ratan Tata biopic.







Rumors about the Biopic!



The idea of making a biopic on Ratan Tata has been circulating in Bollywood for some time. There were significant rumors that a selection had been made and that the film would soon begin production. Notable director Sudha Kongara was rumored in 2022 to be directing this visionary's biopic, with Bollywood stars Akshay Kumar or Abhishek Bachchan tipped to play Ratan Tata. However, Sudha Kongara refuted these rumors, stating, "I have great admiration and respect for Ratan Tata, but I am not currently making his biopic."







A Documentary Already Exists



A documentary on Ratan Tata has already been made. Disney+ Hotstar featured him in an episode of 'Mega Icons' Season 2, where he shared insights about his journey, including his vision of making affordable cars. Those interested in learning more about Ratan Tata can watch this episode, available in five languages—Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Bengali, and English. This documentary was also nominated for the Asian Television Award, highlighting its quality.







Biopics on Business Figures Are Rare!



While sports biopics like 'M.S. 'Dhoni', 'Saina', 'Mary Kom', 'Maidaan', 'Gold', '83', and 'Bhaag Milkha Bhaag' have been released sequentially and achieved success; biopics on business figures are quite rare. The late business mogul Dhirubhai Ambani's life was portrayed by director Mani Ratnam in the Hindi biopic 'Guru' with Abhishek Bachchan leading the role. The film did not meet its expected success but still stands as a landmark in Mani Ratnam’s career. Similarly, netizens hope that filmmakers will step forward to bring Ratan Tata’s story to the screen, believing that such a biopic would definitely make a mark in history.






From Ram Charan to Mahesh Babu: Who Could Portray Ratan Tata in a Biopic?


Rajinikanth, a hero who has earned fans beyond linguistic barriers, enjoys a national following. Known for his style and dialogue delivery, Rajinikanth still drives fans wild. Naturally, the upcoming movie 'Vettaiyan' is creating significant buzz nationwide and is set to release grandly as a Dussehra gift on October 10. However, the movie's title has sparked severe outrage among the Telugu audience, leading to the trending hashtag #BoycottVettaiyanInTelugu on X.



‘Are Telugu Viewers Considered Inferior?’



The film 'Vettaiyan,' directed by T.J. Gnanavel with Rajinikanth as an encounter specialist, is titled in Tamil and was directly used in Telugu as well. This move has upset the Telugu audience, who question why the title wasn’t adapted to Telugu as 'Vetagadu,' despite the availability of an appropriate Telugu term. They feel slighted, asking if only Tamil deserves such respect and not Telugu. Netizens are actively calling to boycott 'Vettaiyan,' indicating a strong discontent with ignoring Telugu language preferences.

It's the same with those movies!



Telugu audiences are known for supporting movies regardless of the language if the story is good. There are many instances where Tamil films that flopped in Tamil Nadu became super hits in Telugu. Previously, dubbing movies used to be given Telugu titles, and signs in other languages were nicely translated into Telugu. Now, they have stopped doing that and are releasing movies directly. Titles like 'Kanguva', 'Vettaiyan', 'Thangalaan', 'Raayan', 'Valimai' are being brought to Telugu with the same Tamil names, and Telugu audiences are severely criticizing this practice. They comment that proper Telugu titles could easily be given. It's clear that Telugu audiences will not support those who do not respect the Telugu language.







No need for Telugu language?



In the past, when Tamil movies were released in Telugu, directors like Mani Ratnam used to get Telugu dialogues and songs written to give the feel of watching a direct Telugu movie. We have seen well-titled films like 'Gharshana', 'Sakhi', 'Yuva', and 'Cheliya'. However, this practice has changed now. There is a lack of attention to dubbing and songs, and the essence of Tamil prevails. Even with titles, the care is minimal. Cinema analysts are surprised that even a star like Rajinikanth did not object to the title 'Vettaiyan'. Telugu audiences are complaining vehemently, wanting the revenue but not the language.






Rajinikanth's 'Vettaiyan' Sparks Outrage: Telugu Fans Call for Boycott Over Title Controversy!


After matching Prabhas's performance in 'Baahubali', Daggubati Rana has garnered Pan-India popularity. As the grandson of legendary producer Daggubati Ramanaidu, Rana has carved a unique identity for himself in the industry, earning acclaim in Hindi films and supporting Telugu cinema in Bollywood. Meanwhile, Rajinikanth's latest film 'Vettaiyan' features Rana in a pivotal role, with a grand release planned for October 10. At the recent movie audio launch, Rajinikanth made intriguing comments about Rana.



'Rana was terrifying'



In the film 'Vettaiyan', directed by 'Jai Bhim' fame TJ Gnanavel, Rajinikanth spoke at the audio function. He extensively praised Rana, highlighting his achievements and recalling knowing him since he was a child through his grandfather. Rajinikanth noted that Rana used to visit the sets even as a boy, always jovial, but now he appears serious in his acting roles, which genuinely startled him. This video of Rajinikanth’s comments has gone viral online, with netizens admiring a superstar like Rajinikanth praising Rana.

Rajinikanth Alters the Story



Rajinikanth recently shared insights about the story of 'Vettaiyan'. He suggested changes to the original story brought by TJ Gnanavel, after his daughter Soundarya urged him to listen to it. Impressed, he requested the addition of commercial elements, which Gnanavel accepted, although he mentioned that it couldn't be turned into a film by directors like Nelson Dilipkumar or Lokesh Kanagaraj. Rajinikanth insisted on those changes, otherwise, he would have approached other directors. Ten days later, Gnanavel returned with the revised script, which surprised Rajinikanth. He also insisted that Anirudh should be the sole music director for the film.







Accusations Against Rajinikanth by a Tamil Director



Kollywood star director KS Ravikumar has made serious accusations against superstar Rajinikanth, stirring significant controversy. Their previous collaboration on 'Lingaa' didn't perform well, leading to negative publicity. In a recent YouTube interview, the director discussed the film's failure, attributing it to Rajinikanth's interference in editing. He claimed that Rajinikanth didn't allow enough time for computer graphics and completely altered the second half, removing a song with Anushka and a twist in the climax, and adding an artificial balloon jumping scene, contributing to the film’s disarray. These comments have now gone viral on social media.







Rajinikanth’s Future Projects



Exciting news has surfaced regarding Rajinikanth's future projects. There's strong buzz about him working with star director Mani Ratnam, reuniting after 33 years since their successful 1991 film 'Thalapathi'. Discussions between Rajinikanth and Mani Ratnam have reportedly taken place. If all goes as planned, an official announcement might be made on Rajinikanth's birthday in December, according to Kollywood sources. On another front, Rajinikanth will be seen in 'Coolie', directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, followed by 'Jailer 2' under the direction of Nelson Dilip Kumar.






Rajinikanth Praises Rana Daggubati’s Intense Performance in 'Vettaiyan'!


Tamil superstar Rajinikanth is well-known for his widespread fan following across India. He is loved by fans beyond the film industry itself, with a strong fan base in Tollywood. Notably, prominent director K.S. Ravi Kumar has made sensational allegations against Rajinikanth. He expressed his dissatisfaction, blaming Rajinikanth for the flop of his movie. These comments have become a hot topic in Kollywood and nationwide. Let's look into the details.



'Rajinikanth created chaos'



The allegations made by Kollywood star director K.S. Ravi Kumar against superstar Rajinikanth are currently causing a significant stir. Their previous collaboration on the movie 'Lingaa' did not meet expectations. Recently, in an interview given to a YouTube channel, the director spoke about the failure of the movie. "Superstar Rajinikanth interfered with the editing of Lingaa. He didn’t give me any time to work on the computer graphics. He completely changed the second half of the movie. A song with Anushka and a twist in the climax were removed. He even added an artificial balloon jumping scene himself. Overall, Rajinikanth messed up the entire movie," Ravi Kumar made these critical comments. These remarks have gone viral on social media.







Working on Three Films!



Director K.S. Ravi Kumar is well-regarded in Kollywood and has had a good relationship with Rajinikanth. They had worked together before 'Lingaa' on blockbusters like 'Muthu' and 'Narasimha'. Then came 'Lingaa' in 2014. Featuring dual roles by Rajinikanth and starring Sonakshi Sinha and Anushka as the heroines, this message-oriented movie came with high expectations but did not perform as expected. However, it did fairly well in terms of collections. Made on a budget of Rs. 100 crores, the film collected around Rs. 120-130 crores at the box office.







After 33 Years, With Mani Ratnam...!



Exciting news has emerged about Rajinikanth’s future project. There is strong buzz that he will be working with star director Mani Ratnam. It’s been 33 years since their last collaboration, and rumors are circulating that they will be working together again. Their last joint venture was the highly successful 'Thalapathi' in 1991. Since then, they haven’t made a movie together. Discussions between Rajinikanth and Mani Ratnam have reportedly taken place for a new project. If all goes as planned, an official announcement may come by December, around Rajinikanth's birthday, according to Kollywood circles.







Rajinikanth Recovers from Illness!



Superstar Rajinikanth recently recovered from an illness. He was admitted to a prominent hospital in Chennai on September 30th after doctors discovered swelling in the main artery coming from his heart. He underwent a transcatheter procedure and had a stent placed. With his health stabilized, he was discharged on the night of October 3rd. Doctors have advised him to rest for a few weeks. Currently, he is resting at home with his family, and his fans are eagerly hoping he will return to shooting soon.

Scheduled for a Dasara release on October 10th, the movie is highly anticipated following the blockbuster 'Jailer', which also featured Rajinikanth.







Star Cast in 'Coolie'!



Rajinikanth currently has another big project on his hands with 'Coolie'.

IIFA 2024: Rare Honor for Chiru and Balayya in Abu Dhabi.. A Sight to Behold!


Whenever a movie from Powerstar Pawan Kalyan is released, it creates a festive atmosphere among fans. Theaters burst into cheers and chaos. However, the frenzy among Pawan’s fans at theaters has decreased lately since no films from him have been released following 'Bro'. With three big projects pending due to his political commitments, fans are eagerly waiting for his return. Amidst this, an exciting update about his upcoming film 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu' has been released. A thrilling poster with the release date was shared by the makers. Interestingly, a Vijay Deverakonda film is also set to release on the same day.



Grand Release in Summer



Pawan Kalyan stars in the period action adventure film 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu', directed by Krish and Jyothi Krishna. The film will be released in two parts, with the first part nearing completion. Recently, the release date for 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu' was announced by the team for a global release on March 28 next year. The special poster released shows Pawan wielding a sword, looking every bit the warrior, much to the delight of his fans who are predicting the film to be a superhit.







First Pan-India Film!



Despite being a star hero, Pawan Kalyan has not had a pan-India film until now. 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu' is set to be his first, releasing next year in Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Malayalam, and Kannada. Expectations are already sky-high, and the glimpses and teasers released have only heightened these. Any small update about this prestigious film instantly trends, showing the massive anticipation. The film, produced under the Mega Surya Production banner by A.M. Ratnam began its initial shooting phase with Krish Jagarlamudi, and currently, Jyothi Krishna is directing it.







Activity in Other Projects Too!



Alongside 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu', Pawan has two more exciting projects in hand. He is working with the talented director Sudeep on 'OG', and with Harish Shankar on 'Ustaad Bhagat Singh'. Due to his political engagements, shooting for these films was also delayed. With the shoot for 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu' resuming today in Vijayawada, signals are that the other two projects will soon kick off too. Pawan is keen to finish these projects quickly before fully focusing on politics in Andhra Pradesh.







Pawan vs Vijay Deverakonda!



With the announcement of the release date for 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu', a box office clash between Pawan and Vijay Deverakonda seems imminent. Vijay's 'VD 12' is also set to release on March 28 next year. Vijay's fans are excited about the face-off, asserting that their hero is ready to take on the big star. However, producers close to Pawan, who are also behind 'VD 12', might consider a new date to avoid direct competition. On another front, Bollywood star Salman Khan's upcoming movie 'Sikandar' is poised to compete with Pawan's release, slated for an Eid 2025 release, which might impact the northern box office given the pan-India release of 'Veera Mallu'.






Pawan Kalyan’s ‘Hari Hara Veera Mallu’ to Clash with Vijay Deverakonda's Film in a Grand Summer Release!


Renowned hero Dulquer Salmaan has carved a unique identity for himself in the South Indian film industry. As the heir of Malayalam cinema legend Mammootty, Dulquer has quickly established his own separate fan base within a short period. Proving himself a worthy son with his remarkable acting skills, he has also made significant inroads into Tollywood, gaining a solid fan following. However, it appears that Dulquer is now shifting his focus entirely towards the Telugu industry. Announcing back-to-back projects in Telugu, he seems ready to give stiff competition to Tier-2 heroes like Ram, Vijay Deverakonda, Naga Chaitanya, and Nithiin.



Dulquer as a Rising Hero in Tollywood!



With just two or three films, young hero Dulquer Salmaan has managed to achieve star hero status in Tollywood. His role as Gemini Ganesan in the Telugu film 'Mahanati', directed by Nag Ashwin, impressed everyone. His exceptional performance mesmerized the Telugu audience. Following this, he captivated viewers as a hero in the film 'Sita Ramam'. Playing a soldier, a lover, and a prisoner in an enemy country, his diverse performances have won the hearts of Telugu cinema-goers. Recently, he played a significant role in 'Kalki 2898 AD' starring Prabhas, portrayed as a mentor who plays a critical role in Prabhas's life, akin to the mythical figure Parashurama. Rumors suggest that Dulquer will continue his role in 'Kalki 2'.







Recognition through Dubbed Films



In addition to direct Telugu films, several movies in which he acted in Tamil and Malayalam were dubbed into Telugu. Dulquer Salmaan's films, up to nine in number, have reached Telugu audiences. Movies directed by Mani Ratnam like 'Ok Bangaram', and those he starred in with Sai Pallavi like 'Hey Pillagada', and 'Andamaina Jeevitham' have greatly attracted the Telugu youth, giving them a feeling of kinship with Dulquer. Action films like 'Kurup', 'Salute', and 'King of Kotha' also gained good will among the mass audience. With this, Dulquer has evolved into a hero who embodies a blend of class and mass appeal in the Telugu film industry.







Aggression with New Projects



With his star hero status in Telugu, directors and producers in Tollywood are keen to work with Dulquer. Consequently, he is actively engaging in Tollywood projects with enthusiasm. He is currently working with director Venky Atluri in the film 'Lucky Bhaskar', set to release on October 31. Additionally, he has agreed to a Pan-India project titled 'Aakashamlo Oka Tara' under the direction of Pavan Sadineni, which has already generated interest with its first look poster showing Dulquer in a farmer’s role. Meanwhile, he has started a new project under Rana's production titled 'Kantha', where he will be seen alongside Tollywood's rising beauty Bhagyashree Borase. Set in the 1950s, Rana plays a key role in this film directed by Tamil director Selvamani Selvaraj.

Strong Competition for Tier-2 Heroes!



Given Dulquer Salmaan's momentum in Tollywood, it seems inevitable that he will pose strong competition to Tier-2 heroes like Ram, Vijay Deverakonda, Naga Chaitanya, and Nithiin. Film analysts believe that if at least two of his current three projects hit, his stature will significantly rise. With his classic looks and the capability to electrify action sequences, Dulquer is fast becoming a preferred choice for Telugu directors. Heroes suffering from a series of flops, like Naga Chaitanya, Ram, and Vijay Deverakonda, need to be cautious about the competition from Dulquer.

Cinema is a boundless art form that frequently reflects real-life scenarios and illuminates societal issues. Many films, deeply entrenched in local settings, have garnered acclaim for their authentic portrayal of regional languages, characters, and environments. In Tollywood, a variety of films have vividly captured the essence of the Telugu states. Let's delve into some of these interesting films.

Pushpa



Directed by Sukumar and featuring Allu Arjun, 'Pushpa' is set primarily in the Seshachalam forests near Tirupati and captures the essence of the nearby Chittoor areas. In the film, Allu Arjun is authentically portrayed as one among the village, adopting the Chittoor dialect.







Guntur Kaaram



In Mahesh Babu's recent movie, 'Guntur Kaaram,' the title itself highlights its setting in the region of Andhra Pradesh. The film prominently features Guntur and its environs, with frequent mentions of the town's name, underscoring Mahesh Babu's character's origins from Guntur.







Balagam



Starring Priyadarshi and directed by Venu Yeldandi of Jabardasth fame, 'Balagam' was a huge success last year. The film mirrored the villages of Telangana, depicting the relationships among villagers and the rituals followed during funerals.







Rangasthalam



The movie 'Rangasthalam,' a collaboration between Ram Charan and director Sukumar, is set in the transport villages of the Godavari region during the 1980s. Ram Charan, playing the role of Chittibabu, vividly brings to life a young man from the Godavari districts, enchanting audiences with his authentic dialect and language.







Dasara



In the film 'Dasara,' starring Nani, the influence of the Peddapalli/Ramagundam areas of Telangana is evident. Nani skillfully delivers dialogues in the local language, enhancing the film’s authenticity. Director Srikanth Odela captures the daily lives of those residing near the Singareni coal mines. The portrayal resonated well with local audiences, who expressed their appreciation for the film's depiction of their region.







Colour Photo



Released on OTT during the COVID period, 'Colour Photo' emerged as a successful love story set against the backdrop of Konaseema, beautifully showcasing the region to the Telugu audience. This film also marked the transformation of comedian Suhas into a leading hero.







Uppena



The film 'Uppena,' featuring young actor Panja Vaishnav Tej and directed by Buchi Babu, achieved significant success. It portrayed the lives of fishermen in the coastal areas of Kakinada, highlighting the challenges they face during their fishing endeavors.







Kotha Bangaru Lokam



Directed by Srikanth Addala and starring Varun Sandesh, 'Kotha Bangaru Lokam' was filmed extensively, with over 50% shot in Rajahmundry and its surroundings. The film captures the profound love that parents in these areas have for their children and the purity of their hearts.







Virata Parvam



Starring Rana and Sai Pallavi, 'Virata Parvam' is set in Naxal-affected regions, primarily during 1990-92 in the agency areas of the Mulugu district. The film portrays how people's lives were intertwined with the influences of politicians, Maoists, and police during that period.







Ismart Shankar



Directed by Puri Jagannadh and featuring Ram Pothineni, 'Ismart Shankar' is set in the Old City area. The hero's dialogue and expressions authentically mirror those of the local residents. Nabha Natesh, who plays the heroine, notably identifies herself repeatedly as a girl from Warangal, adding depth to her character.







C/o Kancharapalem



Directed by Maha Venkatesh, 'C/o Kancharapalem' made a significant impact upon its release. The film is set in North Andhra and features a dialect typical of the Vizianagaram district. Key roles were performed by Karthik Ratnam, Raju, Radha Bessy, and Praneeta Patnaik, who brought the characters to life with their authentic portrayals.







Raja Vaaru Rani Gaaru



'Raja Vaaru Rani Gaaru,' featuring Kiran Abbavaram, captures the essence of the twin Godavari districts beautifully. The film showcases the pristine environment of local villages, providing audiences with a vivid depiction of rural life. To truly appreciate the native culture of the Godavari region, this film is a must-watch.







Films shot near Godavari



Tollywood has a rich history of films set in the Godavari districts. The flowing Godavari river features prominently in many scenes from movies such as 'Sitaara', 'Ladies Tailor', 'Attili Sattibabu', 'Bendu Apparao', and 'Shatamanam Bhavati', all of which showcase the scenic backdrop of the Godavari.

Entering the industry as the heir of the legendary actor Akkineni Nageswara Rao, Nagarjuna has undertaken experiments that no other hero would dare to attempt. He fearlessly moved forward in his career with a variety of unique films, earning a distinct recognition in genres ranging from mass and class to spiritual and romantic. He successfully introduced his sons, Naga Chaitanya and Akhil, as the third generation from the Akkineni family into the industry. Behind Nagarjuna's success in the industry are some daring steps. Let's learn about them on the occasion of his birthday today (August 29).



'Siva' Sensation



Typically, early in their careers, most heroes opt for safe stories. However, Nagarjuna made a big impact with the experimental film 'Siva'. He took a significant risk by giving Ram Gopal Varma, who had never even been an assistant director, a chance to direct. This daring step turned his career around, creating a sensation with 'Siva' in a way no one anticipated. This film not only changed the trajectory of Nag's career but also altered the course of Tollywood, challenging the traditional perceptions of a hero's role with 'Siva'.







Diversity a Priority



With 'Siva', Nagarjuna became a top hero in the industry. While typically a single hit film would set a repetitive pattern in stories, Nagarjuna planned his career to ensure diversity in every film. This strategy led him to star in a supernatural heist film 'Govinda Govinda', a family drama 'Ninne Pelladatha', and an action entertainer 'Hello Brother', continually delighting his fans and establishing a dedicated fan base, thereby solidifying his status as a star hero.







'Annamayya'



At a time when peers like Chiranjeevi, Balakrishna, and Venkatesh were dominating with commercial films, Nagarjuna shocked everyone by signing on to the devotional project 'Annamayya'. Already popular for his mass image, his decision to do a devotional film raised eyebrows within the industry. Committed to portraying diverse roles, Nagarjuna embraced the challenge without hesitation, delivering a performance in 'Annamayya' that became a landmark in his career. Directed by K. Raghavendra Rao, the film was a sensational success, capturing the true essence of Annamayya and earning two National Awards, nine Nandi Awards, and three Filmfare Awards.







More Spiritual Films



Following the success of 'Annamayya', Nagarjuna didn't stop there. While continuing to act in commercial films, he also starred in more devotional films. Films like 'Sri Ramadasu', 'Shirdi Sai', 'Om Namo Venkatesaya', and 'Jagadguru Adi Shankar' under the combination of Raghavendra Rao and Nagarjuna also achieved great success at the box office.







Opportunities for Newcomers



Nagarjuna has proven time and again that not only is giving chances to newcomers not a risk, but it can also lead to success. Throughout his extensive acting career, he has introduced around 40 directors to Tollywood. Directors like Ram Gopal Varma ('Siva'), YVS Chowdary (Sri Sita Ramula Kalyanam Chootamu Raarandi), Lawrence ('Mass'), and Vijay Binni ('Naa Saami Ranga') are included in this list. Nagarjuna often credits these new directors for playing a pivotal role in his stardom.







The First Pan-India Star from Telugu Cinema



Director Krishna Vamsi, in an interview, made interesting remarks about Nagarjuna, describing him as the hero who took Telugu cinema global. Nagarjuna brought directors from various industries and produced diverse films with his own money, significantly altering the audience's perspective. He worked with directors like Mani Ratnam, Priyadarshan, Ravichandran, and Mahesh Bhatt from Malayalam, Kannada, Hindi, and Tamil industries, becoming a true Pan-India foundation.

As the Host of Bigg Boss...



Unlike most stars who shy away from television, Nagarjuna embraced it. He has been hosting the Telugu Bigg Boss show for several years, entertaining the television audience with his charm. While younger heroes like NTR and Tarak hosted for only a season, Nagarjuna has been continuously hosting, completing five seasons (Bigg Boss 3, 4, 5, 6, 7) and is set to host the upcoming eighth season. He has also been notable as the host of the 'Meelo Evaru Koteeswarudu' game show.

The Fitness Mantra



Even at the age of sixty, Nagarjuna's fitness level amazes the younger generation of heroes. Maintaining his physique from his 'Siva' days, he continues to give tough competition to younger heroes. Nagarjuna often shares that his secret to looking great is his calm demeanor and regular workouts. Having debuted as a hero in 1986 with 'Vikram', Nagarjuna has now acted in over a hundred films. Currently, he is working under the direction of Shekhar Kammula in 'Kubera'.
