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

    Ravi Teja's 'Mr. Bachchan' Flops on OTT: Trolls Continue to Mock the Film
    Directed by Harish Shankar and starring Ravi Teja, the film 'Mr Bachchan' was released on August 15 and initially met with massive criticism. Harish Shankar’s direction was heavily criticized, leading to a significant backlash at the box office for 'Mr Bachchan'. With hopes of captivating the OTT audience, the film was recently released on streaming platforms. However, even OTT viewers are wielding criticism, reigniting a wave of trolls on social media platforms. Continued Mockery on OTT! 'Mr Bachchan', which had high hopes pinned on it by mass Maharaja Ravi Teja, faced a dismal performance at the box office. Directed by Harish Shankar with Bhagyashri Borse as the heroine, the movie has been a monumental flop. However, since September 12, the film has been available on Netflix and has been released in Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, and Kannada. Yet, it has not been well-received on OTT either, failing even to secure a spot in the Netflix top 10 trending list. Surprisingly, a film featuring star hero Ravi Teja has garnered minimal views, causing a stir among Netflix circles. Few who watched the movie on OTT are adding to the trolls online, deterring potential viewers. Severe Trolling! Some scenes from the movie 'Mr Bachchan' have left netizens astonished. Director Harish Shankar is being criticized for how certain scenes were executed. Particularly, a fight scene dialogue by an actor saying, “I regret being born a man... if only I were a woman,” has become a major target for trolls. Moreover, dance steps performed by Ravi Teja with Bhagyashri Borse in the songs are being likened to adult content, causing further controversy. The songs are also criticized for being irrelevant and forcibly fitted into the scenes. Even though the Hindi version 'Ride' was a hit, director Harish Shankar is facing backlash as 'Mr Bachchan' didn’t meet expectations. A netizen posted that they couldn’t watch the movie for even an hour and stopped watching after just half an hour. https://twitter.com/nenuneneh/status/1834511822277234953 https://twitter.com/BalaRTCultFan/status/1834481953619542526 https://twitter.com/koppalapn/status/1834462816470007925 https://twitter.com/IamanMCA/status/1834453046287630562 https://twitter.com/Dynamic_boy_7/status/1834439289717096574 https://twitter.com/BunnyJashu3/status/1834299241700757520 Plot Income Tax Officer Mr. Bachchan (Ravi Teja) is an honest man who faces wrath from his superiors for raiding a corrupt tobacco trader. This leads to his suspension. Following this, Mr. Bachchan returns to his hometown Kotipalli, where he falls in love with Jikki (Bhagyashri). As he prepares to get married, he is called back to his job. He is then assigned to conduct a raid at MP Muthyam Jaggiyya's (Jagapathi Babu) house, a figure feared even by officials. How does Bachchan conduct the raid? What challenges does he face there? What happens to Bachchan and Jikki's love affair? How do the elders agree to their marriage? Ultimately, what does Mr. Bachchan achieve? That is the rest of the story.

Mokshagna, who previously appeared a bit chubby, has recently transformed into a slim and heroic look. Director Prasanth Varma of 'Hanu-Man' fame is set to introduce him to the Telugu audience. In this context, a news piece related to Mokshagna Teja's movie is making rounds in the industry, bringing immense joy to Nandamuri fans. Let's delve into those details. Amitabh in a Special Role! Balakrishna has entrusted the responsibility of introducing his son Mokshagna to the industry to young director Prasanth Varma. Gaining nationwide recognition with 'Hanu-Man,' Prasanth Varma is planning meticulously to introduce the Nandamuri heir on a grand scale.

Prasanth Varma's name resonated across the country with 'Hanu-Man,' showcasing his talent to all. Having experience working with young heroes like Teja Sajja, Balayya believes that Prasanth can present Mokshagna effectively.

    "Arthamaina Arun Kumar" Season 2 was released on October 31. Following the warm reception of the first season last year, the second season was eagerly anticipated. Directed by Aditya KV, the series stars Sidhu Pavan in the lead role, with Tejaswi Madivada, Ananya Sharma, and Rashi Singh playing key roles. The trailer released earlier heightened expectations. In the first season, a young man from Amalapuram moves to Hyderabad and humorously navigates challenges in a corporate office. This season interestingly portrays his rise in his professional life and how he faced various challenges. Let's see if this season meets viewers' expectations in this review. Plot: Starting a new job in Hyderabad, Arun Kumar quickly climbs up to Assistant Manager, facing challenges with his female boss. At this juncture, he is assigned a critical project. Tejaswi’s character schemes to sabotage his success. The story unfolds how Arun faces these challenges and whether he overcomes these obstacles. Series Highlights: The series consists of 5 episodes, each ranging from 25-30 minutes, totaling around 2 hours and 15 minutes of runtime. It's quite easy to watch as the story connects smoothly without boring the viewer. Particularly, the fourth episode proceeds dramatically and might feel a bit overstretched, interrupting the flow of the main story. However, the fifth episode captivates with suspense. The inclusion of adult content makes it slightly uncomfortable to watch with family, but it’s enjoyable for couples. Cast: Tejaswi Madivada plays a notable role in this series. Her bikini look in the trailer has attracted everyone with her glamorous portrayal. Although Tejaswi has not played such roles before, this time she appears fresh in her romantic character. Sidhu Pavan, as Arun Kumar, impresses with his performance, especially in scenes with Tejaswi. Ananya Sharma effectively portrays her character, aligning well with her acting scope, and impresses as Arun Kumar’s ex-girlfriend. Direction: Director Aditya KV skillfully continues the story of Arun from an amateur to a professional overcoming challenges in Hyderabad's corporate world in the first season. In the second season, he interestingly shows how Arun advances in his job and faces new challenges. However, the fourth episode could feel a bit draggy due to an excess of dialogue over action.

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. Special shows were even held in villages. This year in August, 'Balagam' won three Filmfare Awards, as well as one SIIMA and one Santosham Award, marking its critical and popular success.

    Jai Hanuman: Megastar Chiranjeevi in 'Jai Hanuman'?
    Teja Sajja and director Prashanth Varma's film 'Hanuman' has captivated audiences nationwide. Released across India in Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada, and Hindi, it quickly became a blockbuster hit. This Sankranthi, 'Hanuman' not only held its own against major films but also shattered box office records, generating significant profits for its producers. The success of the film has naturally led to heightened expectations for its sequel. Recently, buzz has emerged around 'Hanuman 2', with rumors circulating in Tollywood that Megastar Chiranjeevi may join this highly anticipated project. Contacts with the Megastar! As hinted in the climax of the first part, 'Hanuman' will have a sequel. The script work for this movie is nearly complete. It is understood that director Prashanth Varma wishes to cast Megastar Chiranjeevi for the role of Hanuman, believing that only he can do justice to the character given its importance in the sequel. Alternatively, there are strong efforts to cast Ram Charan for the same role. As per sources efforts have started, strengthening the buzz that either Chiranjeevi or Ram Charan might be enacting as Hanuman. Producer Chaitanya Reddy's recent comments have further fueled this speculation, suggesting that if either Chiru or Charan agrees, expectations for 'Hanuman 2' will sky-rocket. Will 'Jai Hanuman' Take Time to Start? It appears that 'Jai Hanuman' might take more time to kick off. Director Prashanth Varma is recently reported to be starting a film with Nandamuri Balakrishna's son, Mokshagna Teja. Mokshagna, who was on the heavier side, has recently slimmed down and undergone a handsome makeover, sparking rumors that their film will soon go on floors. Given this, it's likely that Prashanth Varma will focus on 'Jai Hanuman' after completing his project with Mokshagna. Meanwhile, Megastar Chiranjeevi is busy shooting 'Vishwambhara' aimed for a Sankranthi release. On the other hand, Ram Charan is acting in 'Game Changer' and has also given a green signal to star in a film directed by 'Uppena' fame Buchi Babu. This may further delay the shooting for 'Jai Hanuman'. Mokshagna's Video Goes Viral There have long been rumors about Nandamuri Balakrishna's son Mokshagna entering the film industry. Balakrishna has mentioned at several movie events that his son will join the film industry. Previously, there were negative comments about Mokshagna not being suitable for a hero.

    Prasanth Varma's 'Jai Hanuman' Sequel: Expectations Soar as VFX and Bollywood Stars Join the Cinematic Universe

Released in Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada, and Hindi, the film has become a blockbuster hit at the pan-India level. The success of this film has turned all eyes towards Prasanth Varma's upcoming projects, and the director has previously announced that a sequel to 'Hanuman' is also on the cards. Currently, he is busy preparing the script for the sequel. In a recent interview with an English media outlet, Prasanth Varma shared interesting details about the release of 'Jai Hanuman' and about their cinematic universe, which has become a hot topic in the industry. 'Responsibility has increased' Director Prasanth Varma expressed that the pan-India success of 'Hanuman' has increased the responsibility on him. "If 'Hanuman' had only collected Rs. 100 crores, we would have released the sequel by now," he mentioned. But the film exceeded their expectations in collections, which means there's more responsibility to work on 'Jai Hanuman'. Varma assured that they are working hard on the script for 'Jai Hanuman', aiming to meet and surpass everyone's expectations. He promised to deliver exactly what the audience expects to see on screen. 'VFX work ahead' The VFX work of 'Hanuman' was a major highlight, receiving more praise than the hundreds of crores spent on 'Adipurush' for its graphics. Responding to this, Prasanth Varma mentioned that for 'Hanuman', they started the VFX work after shooting, but for the sequel 'Jai Hanuman', they are preparing the VFX ahead of time. This approach will save time during post-production. Shooting for 'Jai Hanuman' has not yet started. Bollywood stars are confirmed! Prasanth Varma made intriguing remarks about his cinematic universe, revealing that he has been in talks with some Bollywood stars for his films. He confirmed that these stars would definitely be part of his projects but mentioned that it might take some time. He also clarified that it would take some time before 'Jai Hanuman' goes on floors, as 'Adheera' is set to release first, followed by two more films he is currently working on. Other directors are also working on these projects, including one with Mokshagna. Varma aims to release at least one or two films every year.

The look went viral on social media, with Nandamuri fans and cinema lovers wishing Mokshagna all the best. https://twitter.com/PrasanthVarma/status/1831921862609154407 Linkup with 'Jai Hanuman'! The film with Mokshagna Teja, directed by Prasanth Varma, is tentatively titled 'PVCU 2'. Varma had previously stated that every film in his cinematic universe would link with his next film. In this context, 'PVCU 2' will pave the way for the release of 'Jai Hanuman'. This ensures that Mokshagna's film will definitely have a connection with 'Jai Hanuman', arousing curiosity among Nandamuri fans about how this linkup will unfold. Fans are eagerly anticipating what plan Prasanth Varma has concocted as they comment on their excitement.

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

    Rishab Shetty Rumored to Play Hanuman in Blockbuster Sequel 'Jai Hanuman'
    Rishab Shetty Rumored to Play Hanuman in Blockbuster Sequel 'Jai Hanuman'
    The film 'Hanuman' by young hero Teja Sajja and director Prasanth Varma has made a significant impact across the country. Released in Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada, and Hindi, it has become a blockbuster hit. This film, which was a Sankranthi release this year, overshadowed even the major star-led films, setting new box office records and resulting in a windfall for the producers. Consequently, there are high expectations for the upcoming sequel, 'Jai Hanuman'. Currently, there's buzz in Tollywood that a pan-India star has been confirmed for the role of Hanuman in this sequel. Kantara Actor as Hanuman! The ending of the 'Hanuman' movie itself hinted at what 'Jai Hanuman' would be like, significantly raising expectations. From the beginning, there was speculation that leading actors would star in the sequel, with rumors suggesting that either Chiranjeevi or Ram Charan might take on the role of Hanuman. Recently, news surfaced that Prasanth Varma had discussions with KGF fame Yash, but the film unit debunked these as rumors. However, the latest buzz suggests that Prasanth Varma had talks with Rishab Shetty of Kantara fame for the role of Hanuman. Rishab Shetty has reportedly shown interest in this project, delighting fans about this exciting combination. Yet, this is just an industry leak, and an official announcement is needed. Is There a Strategy Behind the Star Names? Since the announcement of 'Jai Hanuman', there has always been some buzz on the internet related to this movie. News about various star heroes being finalized for the role of Hanuman has been circulating for some time. Names like Megastar Chiranjeevi, Ram Charan, Rana Daggubati, and Yash of KGF fame have come up. Now, the latest is that Rishab Shetty has been finalized, but it’s a situation too fluid to confirm definitively. However, industry insiders suggest that this might be a big promotional stunt to keep the hype around 'Jai Hanuman' alive without letting it fade from public interest. Pan-India Craze with Kantara The Kannada film 'Kantara', starring and directed by Rishab Shetty, has proven its mettle on a national level, creating a box office tsunami. Before 'Kantara', Rishab Shetty was known primarily within the Kannada industry, but now his name is nationally recognized. He even received a national award for Best Actor for his performance. Currently, he is working on 'Kantara Chapter 1', a prequel to 'Kantara'. The film team is collaborating with a prominent Hollywood VFX company known for its work on successful films like 'The Chronicles of Narnia', 'The Lion King', and 'Batman'. Mahakali Project The third project from Prasanth Varma's 'Prasanth Varma Cinematic Universe' (PVCU) was recently announced. The movie, titled 'MAHAKALI', aims to introduce the first female superhero in Indian cinema, as suggested by the first look poster released by the makers. Interestingly, this movie is being directed by a female director, Pooja Aparna Kolluru, and is produced under the banner of RKD Studios by Riwaz Ramesh Duggal. "A new force joins our universe. Goddess Kali takes form to battle the most formidable evil. We will show what real superheroes are like," posted Prasanth Varma, promising an exciting new addition to the PVCU. https://twitter.com/PrasanthVarma/status/1844236760215392423 Before Jai Hanuman... Prasanth Varma previously announced that he had 20 scripts ready for his cinematic universe, with the first phase to include six superhero films. Before 'Jai Hanuman', films like 'Adheera' and 'Mahakali' were already prepared. Prasanth Varma also revealed plans to introduce Nandamuri scion Mokshagna in an upcoming film, which would be the second project from PVCU. He confirmed he would be directing this film himself. Prasanth Varma's ambitious approach suggests that he aims to make a significant impact at the box office with a film each year.

Director: Anish Kuruvilla Cinematography: Naveen Yadav Music: Shaktikanth Karthik Editing: Umair Hasan, Fayaz Ray Producers: Gopichand Achanta, Ram Achanta OTT: Disney+ Hotstar Starring Ashutosh Rana, Priya Anand, Nandu, Sonia Agarwal, and Tejaswini Madivada in leading roles, the latest Telugu web series "The Mystery of Moksha Island" has been directed by Anish Kuruvilla. This suspense crime thriller has debuted on the prominent OTT platform Hotstar. How is this series? Has it pleased the OTT audience? Let's find out in this review. Plot Nobel laureate Indian scientist Vishwak Sen (Ashutosh Rana) dies unexpectedly in a flight accident, leaving behind an estate worth nearly ₹24,000 crores. Before his death, he writes a will distributing his wealth equally among all his relatives, with one condition: they must spend a week on Moksha Island. Agreeing to this, Vishwak Sen's family members land on the island, but unexpected events unfold, leading to their deaths one by one. What is the mystery of Moksha Island? Why did Vishwak impose the condition to stay on the island for a week? Are the people who went there really Vishwak's family members or not? What is Vishwak's connection to Moksha Island? That is the story. Performance The web series "The Mystery of Moksha Island" features several actors. Among them, Priya Anand, Nandu, and Ashutosh Rana stand out. Nandu justifies his role as a young man determined to solve the island mystery, while Ashutosh Rana is compelling as a cunning scientist. Tejaswi Madivada and Akshara Gowda attract more with their glamour than their acting. Roshan Kanakala, son of the famous anchor Suma Kanakala, impresses in a gay role. Bhanuchander, Sonia Agarwal, Ajay Katurvar, and Satyakrishna, along with others, do justice to their roles with their performances. Direction Director Anish Kuruvilla has crafted a well-written mystery story set on an island. He designed characters with varied backgrounds for the series, showing an unknown side to each character. Who is killing those who set foot on the island? Episodes where everyone suspects each other build suspense. The director engages the audience with numerous questions about the island over six episodes. The way he unravels the mysteries in the final two episodes is satisfying, although having too many characters on screen can be confusing. Romantic and bold scenes might be uncomfortable for family audiences. The climax might not be as satisfying as expected. However, those who enjoy thriller genres will likely appreciate this series. Technically On the technical front, Naveen Yadav's cinematographer is impressive. He beautifully captures the beach episodes. The art department also performs well; the lab setup looks realistic. The background music provided by Shaktikanth Karthik is decent. The editing is okay, and the production values are good.

    Aho Vikramarka Movie Review: Dev Gill's 'Aho! Vikramarka' Struggles to Impress
    Cast: Dev Gill, Chitra Shukla, Tejaswini Pandit, Praveen Tarde, Posani Krishna Murali, Sayaji Shinde, Prabhakar, and others Director: Peta Trikoti Screenplay and Dialogue: Prasad Varma Music: Ravi Basrur Editor: Tammi Raju Producers: Dev Gill, Mihir Sudhir, Ashwani Kumar Mishra Release Date: August 30, 2024 Actor Dev Gill, known for his role as a villain in Magadheera, has gained recognition in several Telugu films. His latest film as a protagonist, 'Aho! Vikramarka,directed by Trikoti, is released on August 30. How did the film turn out? Did hero Dev Gill succeed? Let's find out in this review. Plot In Pune, 1200 laborers from a colony disappear without a trace for 25 years, leaving their families in despair, not knowing whether they are alive or dead. During this period, Vikramarka (Dev Gill) is transferred to the Pune police station as an SI. Initially, he colluded with the drug mafia led by Bilal (Posani Krishna Murali). Influenced by his girlfriend Archana (Chitra Shukla), he transforms into an honest police officer. What incident prompted Vikramarka's change? What happened to the missing laborers? Was Vikramarka able to save them? What challenges did he face in this process? This is the story. Performances Dev Gill has shown his mark in action scenes. With experience playing villains in various films, he seemed to handle action effortlessly. However, he struggled significantly in love scenes and emotional sequences, failing to express emotions convincingly. Chitra Shukla delivered a solid performance as the heroine, fitting well into her role. Praveen and Tejaswini Pandit, as the villain and ACP Bhavani respectively, were compelling. Posani Krishna Murali and Sayaji Shinde impressed with their seasoned acting. The rest of the cast was satisfactory. Direction Directed by Peta Trikoti, the film reminds one of Telugu hits like 'Temper' and 'Pataas.' However, the plot lacks novelty, and the narration isn't engaging. The director failed to extract compelling performances corresponding to the story's demands. The love track between the hero and heroine feels quite tedious, and Dev Gill's romantic looks recall his villain roles. Nonetheless, Trikoti made an effort to showcase his style in the fight scenes, which are somewhat interesting when the hero confronts the villains. Technically... The art department performed well. Ravi Basrur's music was underwhelming, though the background score was passable in places. The production values were high, with no compromise on the budget.

    Bhumika Chawla's Heartbreaking Story: Replaced in 'Jab We Met' After Waiting a Year
    Bhumika Chawla's Heartbreaking Story: Replaced in 'Jab We Met' After Waiting a Year
    Bhumika Chawla was once a star heroine in Tollywood, acting alongside leading heroes like Pawan Kalyan, Mahesh Babu, Junior NTR, Ravi Teja, and Venkatesh. Her films such as 'Okkadu', 'Khushi', and 'Simhadri' were major hits in the industry. However, she recently shared a grievous insult she faced early in her Hindi film career. She revealed that she was abruptly removed from a project that she had high hopes for. Her comments about this incident have gone viral online. Now, let’s look at the details. Waited a Year.. Still Replaced! Bhumika Chawla's transformation into a film heroine began with the 2000 film 'Yuvakudu' starring Sumanth. She then gained recognition in Telugu as a star heroine through films like 'Khushi', 'Vasu', 'Okkadu', 'Missamma', and 'Simhadri'. After 'Simhadri', her first Hindi film 'Tere Naam' also turned out to be a success, leading to continuous offers in Bollywood, including 'Munna Bhai MBBS' and 'Jab We Met'. Bhumika revealed that she was initially selected as the heroine for 'Jab We Met'. She waited almost a year for this movie and did not accept other films to avoid date issues. However, she mentioned that initially, Bobby Deol was considered as the hero for 'Jab We Met', but later they brought in Shahid Kapoor instead. Subsequently, they also replaced her with Kareena Kapoor as the final choice. This deeply upset her, and she remarked that her career could have been different had she done the film. https://twitter.com/theBuzZBasket/status/1846077009803297009 Those Movies Gave Me Joy: Bhumika It appears that Bhumika Chawla also faced injustice with the Hindi film 'Munna Bhai MBBS'. Initially, she was considered for the heroine role opposite Sanjay Dutt. Due to unavoidable reasons, she was replaced by Vidya Balan. This film became a blockbuster hit in Hindi and was remade in Telugu as 'Shankar Dada MBBS' by Megastar, which was also a grand success. Despite losing these two opportunities, Bhumika recalled the success of her Telugu films 'Khushi', 'Okkadu', and 'Simhadri', which recently re-released and achieved good collections, bringing her joy. Was She Replaced Just for a Girlfriend? There are discussions in Bollywood circles suggesting a strong reason behind Bhumika’s removal from 'Jab We Met'. During the time of this movie, there were widespread reports of Shahid Kapoor being in a relationship with Bollywood beauty Kareena Kapoor. In this context, it is alleged that Shahid Kapoor provided his girlfriend with the opportunity by replacing Bhumika. However, Kareena later separated from Shahid and eventually married Saif Ali Khan. Some people believe that the directors and producers might have thought Kareena would be a better fit alongside Shahid Kapoor, which is why they made the switch at the last moment. Despite acting in several Hindi films thereafter, Bhumika did not achieve significant success. 21 Years Later..
