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. The film, like a beautiful novel, successfully comes to life on screen, directed flawlessly by Kumar. The slow pace of the story and lack of commercial elements could be seen as drawbacks.







Technically



On the technical front, the background music adds an additional layer of allure to the story, with a continual melody that enhances the emotional depth of the narrative. The visuals are captivating, and the production values are high.







Plus Points



- Story and emotions



- Performances by Karthi and Aravind Swamy



- Music



Minus Points



- Slow-paced narrative



- Lack of commercial elements

'Satyam Sundaram' Movie Review: An Emotional Journey with Stellar Performances by Karthi and Aravind Swamy

Good Telugu Movies on OTT: Here are the top Telugu family entertainers from the last decade!

Telugu Top Item Songs Lyrics List: The Item Songs That Took Tollywood by Storm.


The film 'Guntur Kaaram', featuring the combination of Mahesh Babu and Trivikram, was released this Sankranti but did not achieve the expected level of success. Despite decent box office collections, the film initially received a significant amount of negative feedback. Recently, the producer Nagavamshi spoke about 'Guntur Kaaram', suggesting that promoting it as a mass film was a mistake and that it would have fared better if marketed as a class movie. These remarks have gone viral online, thrusting 'Guntur Kaaram' into trending discussions. Netizens are comparing its treatment to that of previous films like 'Athadu' and 'Khaleja', claiming it was unfairly criticized.



What did Nagavamshi say?



In a recent interview, producer Suryadevara Naga Vamsi made some intriguing comments about 'Guntur Kaaram'. When asked if the film was commercially successful, he confirmed that 'Guntur Kaaram' was a commercial hit, except for some losses in the Nizam region. He noted that its release during Sankranti, a time when many people travel to their hometowns, might have affected its revenues. Nagavamshi admitted that the film may not have met audience expectations and that naming it 'Guntur Kaaram' might have been a mistake since a mass title for a family film could be misleading. He also speculated that scheduling the film for a late-night show might have been another error. A video of these comments is currently going viral.

Outrage Over a Flopped Cult Classic!



After recent OTT and TV viewings, everyone is praising 'Guntur Kaaram'. On social media, users are expressing their opinions, noting that they hadn't rewatched another film released during the same Sankranti, unlike 'Guntur Kaaram', which they saw multiple times on both OTT and TV. One user criticized the Telugu film industry's failure, while another praised Mahesh Babu's one-man show. As a result, 'Guntur Kaaram' is being widely discussed online under the hashtag #GunturKaaram, with fans sharing their favorite scenes from the movie.

A Record for "Kurchi Madathapetti"!



The song "Kurchi Madathapetti" from 'Guntur Kaaram' has been a massive hit, appealing to all segments of the audience without distinction between mass and class. The dance steps of Mahesh and Sreeleela in particular have delighted fans. This song is a staple at events across the Telugu states. Recently, it has reached another milestone on YouTube, surpassing 450 million views, causing the hashtag #KurchiMadathapetti to trend wildly on social media. Videos related to this song are being widely shared by netizens.

Why Only Mahesh-Trivikram Movies?



So far, three films have been made by the Mahesh-Trivikram combo. Earlier releases 'Athadu' and 'Khaleja' received mixed reviews and did not achieve significant commercial success. However, they particularly captivated the television audience, achieving high TRPs during their TV premieres. These films have instilled a sense of injustice among fans. The same is happening with 'Guntur Kaaram'. Surprisingly, films that were not noticed much in theaters are receiving accolades on OTT and TV. The film circles are puzzled about why this pattern is recurrent with Mahesh-Trivikram films.






Guntur Kaaram' Redemption: Mahesh Babu's Film Becomes Cult Hit After OTT Release Despite Initial Criticism


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.



[toc]



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.


Exclusive: Cinematic Journeys, Exploring Telugu Villages Through Tollywood's Lens


Cast: Anjali, Ananya Nagalla, Chaitanya Sagiraju, Ravindra Vijay, Shanmukh, Mahaboob Basha, Sri Tej, Baby Chaitra, Sammeta Gandhi, and others.



Directed by: Mukesh Prajapati



Cinematography: Prasanna S. Kumar



Music by: Siddharth Sadashivuni



Editing: Raviteja Girijala



Producer: Prashant Malishetti



OTT Platform: ZEE5



Release Date: July 19, 2024



Renowned actress Anjali stars as a prostitute in the series 'Bahishkarana,' a rural revenge action drama directed by Mukesh Prajapati. The series also features significant roles by Ravindra Vijay, Ananya Nagalla, Sri Tej, Shanmukh, Mahaboob Basha, and Chaitanya Sagiraju. Promotional materials have already heightened expectations for this series, which premiered on ZEE5 on July 19, consisting of six episodes. Let's delve into the review to see how this web series fares.







Plot



Set in the 1990s in Peddapalli, a village in Guntur district, the story centers around Shivayya (Ravindra Vijay), the authoritarian village president whose influence manipulates the lives of the villagers, especially women. Among them is Pushpa (Anjali), who lives under his control as his concubine. Darshi (Sri Tej), an employee of Shivayya, falls in love with Pushpa and they plan to marry. However, Shivayya, feigning agreement, strategically sabotages their plans and instead marries Darshi to his niece, Lakshmi (Ananya Nagalla). Amidst this chaos, Darshi finds himself wrongly embroiled in a legal case. The unfolding drama explores who framed Darshi, his confrontation with Shivayya, the repercussions he faces, and how Pushpa, with the aid of Lakshmi, seeks revenge against Shivayya. The series delves into these compelling dynamics.







Performances



Anjali is captivating in the role of a prostitute. With her dialogues and mannerisms, she mesmerized the audience. She beautifully portrays the variations of a woman forced into a life she dislikes and struggling for her lover's affection. Anjali also shines in action sequences, particularly impressing in the climax. Sri Tej as Darshi delivers a compelling performance, embodying a young man from the lower strata who cannot tolerate injustice. Ananya Nagalla as Lakshmi offers a natural performance, while Ravindra Vijay as the villainous Shivayya delivers a solid performance, appearing powerful through his dialogues and looks. The rest of the cast adequately fulfill their roles.







Direction



Director Mukesh Prajapati crafts this series as a period revenge action drama. He brings to life the struggle of a prostitute fighting against the injustices done to her lover. The series vividly portrays how caste discriminations dominated rural areas in the past, showing how the upper classes oppressed the lower castes and particularly women. The series touches on delicate issues like caste and untouchability, giving importance to drama and emotions. However, despite a promising concept, the presentation feels routine and the series progresses flatly without significant twists. While the backdrop of prostitution offers a fresh element, the rest of the storyline recalls plots from older films. Some disturbing scenes aside, 'Bahishkarana' consistently entertains.







Technically



On the technical front, cinematographer Prasanna S. Kumar does an excellent job. His camera work effectively transports the audience back to the 1990s. Siddharth Sadashivuni's background score is a significant plus, elevating the action sequences to a higher level. The production values are also notably high.







Plus Points



- Anjali's performance



- Periodic revenge drama



- Background music



Minus Points



- Lack of twists



- Some boring scenes

Bahishkarana Series Review: Anjali's Riveting Portrayal in a Tale of Love and Revenge&nbsp;


The Telugu film industry consistently leads in setting new trends. A resurgent trend in Tollywood features films with one hero and two heroines. While this concept is not new, as many Telugu films have previously followed this pattern, its popularity waned over time. However, after a significant hiatus, this trend is making a comeback, with several upcoming movies adopting this format. What are these films, and who are the heroines involved? We will delve into these details in this special report.



Gayathri Bharadwaj - Prisha Rajesh Singh



Allu Sirish stars in the upcoming film 'Buddy,' directed by Sham Anton. Scheduled for release on August 2, the film features two heroines: Gayathri Bharadwaj and Prisha Rajesh Singh. Both actresses have caught the audience's attention in the promotional materials for 'Buddy.' The film is produced under the banner of Studio Green Films by KE Gnanavel Raja and Adhana Gnanavel Raja.







Malvika Malhotra - Mannara Chopra



Raj Tarun stars in the latest film 'Thiragabadara Saami,' directed by A.S. Ravi Kumar. In this film, two heroines share the screen: main heroine Malvi Malhotra and Mannara Chopra, who appears in a special song. Meanwhile, Raj Tarun and Malvi Malhotra have been in the news recently. Raj Tarun's girlfriend, Lavanya, has filed a complaint alleging that he deceived her and has been romantically involved with Malvi Malhotra. Amid these controversies, there is heightened interest in 'Thiragabadara Saami.'







Thanvi Akanksha - Seerat Kapoor



The latest film 'Usha Parinayam,' directed by veteran director Vijay Bhaskar and starring his son Sree Kamal, is set to hit theaters on August 2. The film features two heroines: newcomer Thanvi Akanksha and established actress Seerat Kapoor, who will appear in a special song. Thanvi Akanksha makes her film debut, while Seerat Kapoor has been known for her roles in films like 'Run Raja Run,' 'Tiger,' 'Columbus,' 'Okka Kshanam,' and 'Touch Chesi Chudu.'







Meenakshi Chaudhary - Shraddha Srinath



Vishwak Sen stars in 'Mechanic Rocky,' directed by Raviteja Mullapudi and produced by Ram Talluri. The film, set against a love triangle concept, features Meenakshi Chaudhary and Shraddha Srinath as the female leads. Scheduled for release on October 31, 'Mechanic Rocky' has sparked curiosity among viewers. Meenakshi Chaudhary is already well-known from films like 'Ichata Vahanamulu Niluparadu,' 'Khiladi,' 'HIT 2: The Second Case,' and 'Guntur Kaaram.' Shraddha Srinath has also captured the Telugu audience's heart with her performances in 'Jersey' and 'Saindhav.'







Tamannaah - Raashi Khanna



The fourth installment in the 'Aranmanai' series, 'Baak,' was recently released in Telugu, directed by Sundar C. It stars Tamannaah Bhatia and Raashii Khanna, who together featured prominently in a song that became quite popular among fans. Despite being a horror film, 'Baak' failed to make a significant impact at the box office.







Tamannaah - Keerthy Suresh



Megastar Chiranjeevi's last film, 'Bhola Shankar,' also featured two heroines and was directed by Meher Ramesh. Tamannaah Bhatia and Keerthy Suresh played the lead roles, with Tamannaah as Chiru's love interest and Keerthy Suresh as his sister. Released on August 11 last year, the film failed to captivate the audience.






One Hero Two Heroines: Old Trend in Tollywood is coming Back?


Following 'RRR,' Ram Charan stars in the highly anticipated film 'Game Changer,' directed by Tamil star director Shankar. This political action thriller is produced by prominent Tollywood producer Dil Raju. Fans are eagerly waiting to know when this film will hit the screens. Recently, a significant update regarding the release date of 'Game Changer' has emerged, suggesting a big surprise on Vinayaka Chavithi. Let's look at the details.



Release Date Locked?



It appears that a major update is ready for the film 'Game Changer.' The movie team is planning to unveil a poster with the much-awaited release date. The film is set for a pan-India release on December 20, as a Christmas gift. There's buzz that an official announcement regarding the release date will be made on September 7, during Vinayaka Chavithi, potentially through a special poster. Producer Dil Raju recently confirmed at a movie event that 'Game Changer' would be released in December, delighting mega fans.







Teaser Ready to Launch



So far, the 'Game Changer' movie has not released content up to the expected level. In response, the makers are preparing to release a teaser soon. They plan to surprise mega fans with the teaser this month, giving a full treat with two updates within the same month. Industry insiders speculate that the teaser might be released in the last week of September. If this happens, it will be a joyous occasion for Ram Charan's fans.







Why Only for Christmas!



It seems that mega hero Ram Charan is following in the footsteps of pan-India star Prabhas. Prabhas' film 'Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire' was released last Christmas and achieved blockbuster success. However, there's a reason why 'Salaar' was released during Christmas. With Mahesh Babu (Guntur Karam), Nagarjuna (Naa Saami Ranga), Venkatesh (Saindhav), and Teja Sajja (HanuMan) competing in the 2024 Sankranti season, it was decided to release 'Salaar' solo during Christmas for better box office results. Now, Ram Charan &amp; Co are also contemplating a similar strategy. With Megastar Chiranjeevi’s 'Vishwambhara' locked for Sankranti 2025, and other major films like Venkatesh-Anil Ravipudi's film, Ajith's 'Good Bad Ugly', and 'Shatamanam Bhavati 2' also likely to compete, a Christmas release would enable Ram Charan to make a significant impact at the box office, just like Prabhas.







Director Shankar's High Hopes!



Director Shankar's recent release 'Bharateeyudu 2' was met with severe disappointment, with netizens commenting that it did not feel like a typical Shankar film. His previous films like 'Robo 2.0', 'I', and 'Snehithudu' also underperformed at the box office. Therefore, 'Game Changer' has become crucial for Shankar to return to the path of success. Producer Dil Raju is also hoping to recover from the disappointment of his last film 'Family Star,' starring Vijay Deverakonda, which was a significant failure at the box office. Currently, both the director and producer are pinning their hopes on the success of the Charan movie.






'Game Changer' Release Date Locked announcement on Vinayaka Chavithi?


In Tollywood, among the heroes with a massive fan following are Balakrishna and Mahesh Babu. While Mahesh charms fans with his classy looks, Balakrishna energizes his fans with his signature mass dialogues. The very idea of these two stars in one movie is exciting! Recent comments by popular music director Thaman suggest that this multi-starrer might soon become a reality. Thaman's comments during a show became a hot topic on social media.



What Did Thaman Say?



On the popular OTT streaming app 'Aha,' the Telugu version of Indian Idol is being streamed, where Thaman serves as a judge, and singer Sreerama Chandra is hosting. During the semifinals of the show, host Sreerama Chandra posed an intriguing question to Thaman: "If you had the opportunity to direct music for both Balakrishna and Mahesh Babu's films at the same time, which film would you choose to work on?" Thaman's response turned into the talk of Tollywood. He revealed that not only is the multi-starrer film with both Balayya Babu and Mahesh Babu possible, but he also mentioned that he has heard the story of the film. This revelation had both the anchor Sreerama Chandra and the audience cheering excitedly.




https://twitter.com/CINE_EXPLORERS/status/1832658977953607782




Fans Stirring Up Excitement!



Thaman's comments about the upcoming class-mass combo multi-starrer are going viral online. Fans are asserting that records will be shattered if a film featuring Mahesh and Balayya materializes, reminiscent of the films of Super Star Krishna and NTR (N T Rama Rao). Fans are excited at the prospect of their sons also acting together. However, it remains to be seen whether Thaman's comments were made in jest or if there is a genuine plan in place. Currently, apart from speculation by the audience, there is no confirmed information about the film's story or direction. Yet, if true, it's certain that not just speakers but box office records are set to be broken.







Maybe Not Anytime Soon!



After 'Guntur Kaaram,' Mahesh is set to work with legendary director SS Rajamouli. With this commitment, Mahesh won't be available for any other movies for at least the next three years, which means a movie with Balakrishna might not happen anytime soon. Even if the story exists and both actors agree, it might take at least four years for the movie to get on the tracks. Mahesh is currently preparing his look for Rajamouli's film, sporting a significantly grown hair and beard for an adventure action thriller set on a global scale.







Balayya Busy Busy



Balakrishna is currently busy shooting an action-packed movie (NBK 109) directed by Bobby Kolli. The makers are considering releasing this film in December or for the Sankranti festival next year. Notably, Thaman is providing the music for this movie. The shooting is progressing at a brisk pace. In this film, Bollywood stars Bobby Deol and Urvashi Rautela play crucial roles. Balakrishna is fully engaged in the ongoing shooting of this movie, keeping him very busy.






Thaman Hints at a Possible Mahesh Babu and Balakrishna Multi-Starrer, Sparking Fan Excitement

Highest Box Office Collections 2024: 'HanuMan' Becomes India's No.1 Film, Surpassing Hrithik and Mahesh Babu!


Allu Arjun returns as the lead in the pan-Indian film directed by Sukumar, titled 'Pushpa 2: The Rule,' which is the sequel to the blockbuster 'Pushpa: The Rise.' The item song from the previous film was a massive hit, mesmerizing audiences across India with Samantha’s performance in 'Oo Antava Oo Oo Antava,' and now, there's a high expectation for the upcoming sequel's item number. However, who will star in the next item song remains a mystery.



Initially, Tripti Dimri was considered for the item song in 'Pushpa 2,' but reports suggest that the film crew has decided against it after being dissatisfied with the rehearsal outcomes. Now, there's talk of considering two younger actresses from Tollywood and Bollywood to fill the spot.



'Pushpa' generated immense buzz nationally, with its pre-release business surpassing ₹1000 crores. The makers are carefully managing every aspect to ensure that 'Pushpa 2' surpasses the feel and success of Part 1. Notably, the songs from the first part were huge hits, particularly the item song 'Oo Antava Oo Oo Antava' performed by Samantha and Bunny, which the director Sukumar plans to top in this sequel.



Item Song featuring Sreeleela



There's a buzz that Sreeleela has been approached to dance alongside Bunny in the item song for 'Pushpa 2.' Sreeleela's popularity among the youth skyrocketed after her item song with superstar Mahesh Babu in 'Guntur Kaaram.' Her energetic performance in the 'Aa Kurchi Madatapetti' song from the movie was widely appreciated for its dance and glamour, prompting filmmakers to make serious efforts to include her in 'Pushpa 2,' with both Sukumar and Bunny reportedly green-lighting her participation.







Romance with Shraddha Kapoor



Another name being considered for the item song is Bollywood’s beauty star Shraddha Kapoor, whose recent movie 'Stree-2' was a big hit. Given her appeal, including her in the song might enhance the nationwide buzz around 'Pushpa.' Talks have already taken place with her, and if she agrees, it could elevate the film's pan-Indian appeal. A formal announcement regarding the participating actress is expected soon, as the item song shoot is scheduled for November.







Bunny paired with two heroines



Rashmika Mandanna is known to be the leading lady in 'Pushpa 2,' but there’s news that she might also join the item song. Even though Rashmika was part of the first part, she did not appear in the item song which was exclusively led by Bunny and Samantha. With the inclusion of two heroines in the sequel’s item number, expectations among movie lovers are soaring to see how Bunny will perform alongside them.







November: The month of Pushpa mania



Allu Arjun has declared November as the month of 'Pushpa.' With just a month left until the movie's release, promotions are kicking off. A nationwide tour is hinted, with full-scale promotions across all languages set to begin by mid-November. The entire movie crew is expected to participate in these promotions.







Final phase of 'Pushpa 2' shooting



The shooting for 'Pushpa 2' is nearly complete, except for the item song. The climax scene involving Allu Arjun and villain Fahadh Faasil was recently filmed at Ramoji Film City. The climax will be crucial, much like in the first part, and will also link to the potential third part of the series.






'Pushpa 2' Item Song Buzz: Sreeleela or Shraddha Kapoor to Replace Samantha? 🔥 Here's What We Know!


Icon Star Allu Arjun is well-known to be reprising his role in Pushpa 2, directed by Sukumar. Following the pan-India success of the first part, expectations for this film are sky-high nationally. The filmmakers have officially announced that the movie will be presented to the audience on December 5. As part of the promotions, a new poster for the movie has recently been released. Owners of theaters overseas are also gearing up for innovative promotions of Pushpa.



Countdown to Pushpa’s Arrival



As the release date for Pushpa 2 approaches, fans are eagerly awaiting movie updates. In this context, the sudden release of a new poster by the Pushpa team took everyone by surprise. With exactly one month until the movie's release, the film crew has intensified promotional activities. On Tuesday (November 5), a brand-new poster was released, showing Pushparaj (Allu Arjun) and Bhanwarsingh Shekhawat (Fahadh Faasil) standing face-to-face. Moreover, the team announced that the trailer for Pushpa 2 would soon be released, much to the delight of Bunny’s fans.

Plans are underway to release the trailer simultaneously in major cities across India, including Patna, Kochi, Chennai, Bangalore, Mumbai, and Hyderabad, with potential release on November 15.

Promotions with Popcorn Boxes



With just 30 days to the release of Pushpa 2, promotional activities have also kicked off internationally. In the US, theaters have begun unique promotions using Pushpa branded popcorn tubs and cool drink bottles. These will be available during the premieres of 'Kanguva' on November 13. No Indian cinema has ever promoted in this manner before. Currently, pictures related to these promotions are circulating on social media, with the Pushpa 2 team sharing them on X (formerly Twitter).

Item Song Shoot from November 6!



The songs from the movie Pushpa were massive hits, especially the item song "Oo Antava Oo Oo Antava," which became a national sensation with Samantha's mesmerizing performance. Given the popularity, director Sukumar is planning a similar item song for Pushpa 2. Rumors suggest that young beauty Sreeleela has been finalized for this role. The song shoot is set to begin on November 6, and there is considerable excitement about Sreeleela’s dance performance. She gained popularity with her item song with superstar Mahesh Babu in 'Guntur Kaaram'. Fans are already speculating on how Bunny, a great dancer himself, will match steps with the young heroine.




https://twitter.com/i/status/1849383805657690194




Pushpa 3 Confirmed



There has been speculation about a third part following Pushpa 2. Both hero Allu Arjun and director Sukumar have hinted at it multiple times. Recently, producer Ravi Shankar confirmed that Pushpa 3 is definitely happening, with a solid lead already in place, ensuring the continuation of the series. This announcement has sent Bunny’s fans into a frenzy. However, details about when Pushpa 3 will commence are still unclear. Following Pushpa 2, Bunny is set to work on a pan-India project with Trivikram, and Sukumar has announced a film with Ram Charan. It seems likely that Pushpa 3 will begin after these projects are completed.

Pushpa 2 Goes Viral: Branded Popcorn and Cool Drinks Spark Fan Frenzy!


The upcoming film "Pushpa 2," starring Allu Arjun, is buzzing nationwide. Directed by Sukumar, the film is almost ready to hit theaters, with a grand release scheduled for December 5th. The shooting is nearly complete, except for two songs and one scene, raising concerns among fans about whether the film will release on the announced date. Amid these developments, an unexpected twist in the film's production has emerged: Thaman has been brought in to replace Devi Sri Prasad as the music director, which has been a hot topic of discussion.



Thaman Joins Pushpa 2 Team



It is well-known that star music director Devi Sri Prasad was scoring the music for "Pushpa 2" after his tracks for the first part created a nationwide sensation. Recently released songs from the film have already captured the youth's attention. However, rumors are now circulating online that Devi Sri Prasad has been set aside and Thaman has taken over the responsibility for the film's background music.







Dissatisfaction from Sukumar



Sukumar and Devi Sri Prasad have had a strong rapport, with Devi providing music for all of Sukumar’s past films, which featured hit albums. Sukumar had entrusted Devi Sri Prasad with the music responsibilities for "Pushpa 2" as well, and while he was satisfied with the songs, he was reportedly not happy with the background music. With just 29 days left until the film's release, and Devi Sri having his hands full, Sukumar decided to bring in Thaman to handle the BGM. Discussions with Thaman have reportedly taken place, and he has already presented some background scores to Sukumar. An official announcement regarding this change is expected soon.







Why Thaman?



Music director S.S. Thaman is renowned not only for his compelling songs but also for his exceptional background scores. Recently, his BGMs have been making waves, with notable contributions to films like "Akhanda," "Veera Simha Reddy," "Vakeel Saab," "Bhagavanth Kesari," "Guntur Kaaram," "Bro," and "Skanda." Thaman, already having worked with Allu Arjun in blockbuster films such as "Sarrainodu" and "Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo," knows exactly what kind of musical elevations suit Allu Arjun’s films to make theaters erupt. Hence, there is a strong belief among fans that if Thaman provides the background music for "Pushpa 2," it will be phenomenal.







Another Music Director in Consideration?



Alongside Thaman, another music director, Ajaneesh Loknath, known for his work on films like "Kantara" and "Mangalavaaram," is also being considered for "Pushpa 2." Rumors suggest that Thaman might handle the first part and Ajaneesh the second, indicating that up to three directors might work on the film. However, industry insiders strongly believe that Thaman will be the sole provider of the background music, although clarity will only emerge with an official announcement.







A Rare Feat for Pushpa 2



"Pushpa 2" marks a significant achievement as Allu Arjun, previously known primarily to the Telugu audience, garnered a global fan base following the success of "Pushpa" (2021). With the film achieving pan-India and overseas success, "Pushpa 2" has generated substantial hype among international audiences. Pre-sale bookings have recently opened overseas, and the first 15,000 tickets sold out in record time—a first for an Indian film in America. The "Pushpa" team has released a special poster to announce this milestone.

BREAKING: Thaman Replaces DSP for Pushpa 2 BGM with Just 29 Days Left; Overseas Advance Bookings Break Records! 🔥


After a decade into politics, Powerstar Pawan Kalyan achieved a significant victory in the 2024 Assembly elections. However, in the previous elections, representing the Jana Sena Party, he lost both constituencies he contested. The only MLA he managed to win later joined the ruling YSRCP government. This prompted fierce criticism from YSRCP leaders targeting Pawan. He also faced severe criticism from the Telugu film industry, especially from director Ram Gopal Varma and actor Posani Krishna Murali, who heavily targeted him. RGV even made a film trolling Pawan. With the coalition government (TDP-Jana Sena-BJP) in power in Andhra Pradesh and Pawan as the Deputy Chief Minister, it looks like some action may be taken on RGV and Posani, who were vocal critics.



Serial Cases Against RGV



On today's date (November 11), a case was filed against film director Ram Gopal Varma at Maddipadu Police Station in Prakasam District under the IT Act. He posted material during the promotion of the movie 'Vyuhm' that allegedly denigrated Nara Chandrababu Naidu, Nara Lokesh, Nara Brahmani, and Pawan Kalyan. The Telugu Desam Party's main secretary from Maddipadu Mandal lodged the complaint. Police registered the case and are conducting an investigation. Similarly, a case was also filed against RGV at Talluru Police Station in Guntur District for making indecent posts about Chandrababu, Pawan Kalyan, and Nara Lokesh. The vice president of the TDP's Farmers Division, Nutalapati Ramarao, filed a complaint today urging action against Varma. Consequently, Tuluru police also registered a case against RGV, who may soon be investigated.







Imminent Arrest of Posani!



Actor Posani Krishna Murali, known for his successful multiple roles in films, joined YSRCP after its establishment and campaigned for Jagan during the 2019 elections. After Jagan became Chief Minister, Posani was even more vocal than YSRCP leaders in targeting Pawan and Chandrababu. He faced accusations of character assassination in several press meets. Posani previously lashed out calling Pawan a mental case and alleging that the Mega family only formed parties for financial gains. He fiercely criticized them, leading to multiple lawsuits filed by Jana Sena supporters and women's groups, which were ignored while YSRCP was in power. Now, with the coalition government in office and revisiting old cases against those who insulted TDP and Jana Sena leaders, there's talk in AP political circles that Posani might be arrested any moment.







Preparations for Sri Reddy's Arrest!



Actress Sri Reddy, known for her support of YSRCP, had previously criticized TDP and Jana Sena leaders in her unique style during the last government's tenure. There were instances when she even insulted Pawan Kalyan's mother. With AP police now focusing on those who have engaged in character assassination on social media, Sri Reddy is also likely to be taken into custody soon. Various cases registered against her in different regions are being reviewed by the police. Recently, the actress released a video apologizing and requesting forgiveness from Chandrababu, Pawan Kalyan, and Home Minister Anita, pledging not to post any offensive content about them or their family members anymore. The video has become quite trending lately.







Will Actions Be Taken Against Prakash Raj?



Recently, a controversy erupted between Pawan Kalyan and Prakash Raj over comments related to Tirumala laddus and Sanatan Dharma. While Pawan spoke about Sanatan Dharma, Prakash Raj posed several questions on the same platform without directly naming him, using the hashtag #JustAsking. Pawan largely ignored these comments. However, Jana Sena workers and Pawan's fans are highly agitated over Prakash Raj's unrelated criticisms and are demanding action against him on social media. Currently, the AP police are revisiting old cases, and since no cases have been registered against Prakash Raj in any station, it's speculated that he might not face immediate actions.






Powerstar Pawan Kalyan’s Revenge? Cases Filed Against Celebrity Critics Amid Political Shakeup


Previously, a movie's success was not just measured by its collections but also by how many days it ran in theaters. In the past, many hit films used to run for 50 days, 100 days, and some even celebrated 200 days functions. During the era of actors like Ramarao and Nageswararao, there were instances where movies were shown for a whole year. However, in the current OTT era, this situation has disappeared. Even films that collect hundreds of crores at the box office are moving to OTT within a month. Therefore, the talk of movies running for 50 days or 100 days is almost non-existent in the industry. However, Tarak's latest film 'Devara' has broken this silence. Let's see how.



Devara... The Half Century



Directed by Koratala Siva and starring Tarak, the Pan-India film 'Devara' was released worldwide on September 27 and has claimed success. The film grossed ₹500 crores at the box office. Recently, Devara achieved a milestone by being shown in 52 centers for 50 days (Devara 50 Days in 52 Centers). The makers released posters detailing this accomplishment, listing the theaters in the Ceded, Uttarandhra, Krishna, Nizam, East, West, Guntur, and Nellore areas that completed 50 days. It's special that 'Devara' managed a half-century in theaters even though it's available on OTT. Tarak's fans are proudly raising their collars seeing this.

Trending on OTT as Well



After creating a tsunami of collections at the box office, 'Devara' was recently brought to streaming by Netflix. From November 8, it has been available in Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, and other South Indian languages. Shortly after its release, 'Devara' trended nationally on Netflix, and it continues to draw significant streaming minutes, a record for a Tarak film. Even a week into its OTT release, 'Devara' remains in the top 10, with many who have seen the movie rewatching it.







Soon on Sets 'NTR 31'



It's known that Tarak (Jr NTR) will be making a film with Kannada star director Prashanth Neel. The movie, tentatively titled NTR 31, is set to be a periodic action drama. The pre-production work is going on vigorously, promising a new level of characterization and performance from Tarak compared to his previous films. Plans are underway to start shooting as soon as pre-production is complete. Currently, Tarak is busy with the film 'War 2', a Bollywood movie starring Hrithik Roshan, in which Tarak will play a role with negative shades.







Tarak's Movie with Rajini's Director?



There's a strong buzz that Tarak will be making a movie with Tamil star director Nelson Dileep Kumar. Discussions related to the story have already taken place, and Tarak has reportedly responded positively to the script. An official announcement about this project is expected soon. Nelson Dileep Kumar recently directed 'Jailer', securing a solid hit with Rajinikanth in a powerful role. Currently busy with 'Jailer 2', Nelson may commence the Tarak project after that.






Jr NTR's 'Devara' Achieves Rare 50-Day Milestone in Theaters Amidst OTT Era

Telugu cinema's young heroes are being particularly careful with their choice of scripts, showing interest only if the story offers something new. Otherwise, they unhesitatingly reject routine stories, setting an example that even veterans like Nagarjuna, Venkatesh, Ravi Teja, Ram Pothineni, Nithiin, and Gopichand could take note of. Young actor Suhas is soon to appear in a unique story titled 'Gorre Puranam'. This backdrop has reignited discussions about the innovative subjects young heroes are choosing. Who are these young heroes bringing new stories to life? What movies have they done? Let's delve into this special report.



Suhas



Starting with minor roles in the industry, Suhas became famous almost overnight with the movie 'Colour Photo'. Building on the fame from his short films, he seized opportunities in cinema. He earned good recognition from the audience by acting in diverse films like 'Writer Padmabhushan', 'Ambajipeta Marriage Band', 'Sriranga Neethulu', and 'Prasanna Vadanam'. Moreover, he made an impact as a villain in the movie 'HIT 2'. Recently, he's gearing up to present another novel subject with 'Gorrepuranam', releasing this Friday (September 20).







Teja Sajja



Starting as a child actor, Teja Sajja transitioned to a lead role with 'Zombie Reddy'. Despite his first film establishing him as hero material, subsequent diverse films like 'Ishq' and 'Adbhutham' did not earn much fame. However, he achieved a solid hit nationally with 'Hanuman', directed by Prasanth Varma. This success resonated well, enhancing Teja Sajja's reputation. Currently, he's involved in another pan-India film titled 'Miraya', where Manchu Manoj plays the villain. The already released teaser of 'Miraya' has raised expectations.







Nikhil Siddhartha



Nikhil Siddhartha grabbed everyone’s attention with 'Happy Days'. Post that film, he continued to captivate the youth with solo hero films. His journey includes significant roles in films like 'Swamy Ra Ra', 'Karthikeya', 'Surya vs Surya', 'Ekkadiki Pothavu Chinnavada', and 'Karthikeya 2', establishing him as a reliable hero. Currently, he's part of the historical film 'Swayambhu', produced by Ram Charan, and also 'Karthikeya 3' is in his lineup.







Vishwak Sen



Vishwak Sen, known among the youth as a mass hero, has been careful to ensure diversity in his films from the start. His initial movie 'Vellipomakey' didn't make a big splash, but 'Ee Nagaraniki Emaindi' brought him significant youth following. Following that, 'Falaknuma Das', a mass action drama, secured another success. His roles in 'HIT', 'Paagal', 'Ashoka Vanamlo Arjuna Kalyanam', 'Ori Devuda', 'Das Ka Dhamki', 'Gaami', and 'Gangs of Godavari' further cemented his status as a star in Telugu cinema.
