Director Sekhar Kammula, known for crafting classic films in Tollywood, especially youthful love entertainers, has carved a distinct identity for himself. Meanwhile, Natural Star Nani is also popularly seen as a 'lover boy' and is currently riding high after the success of his recent movie 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram'. Amidst this backdrop, there is widespread buzz about an upcoming film under the direction of Sekhar Kammula starring Nani. It's being talked about that Sai Pallavi might join as the heroine for this movie.



Super Combo Loading



An exciting new combination is set to take shape in Tollywood with Nani and Sekhar Kammula teaming up for a new film, according to social media buzz. Tollywood circles are also abuzz with the prospects of this pairing. The script for this movie is reportedly ready, and Nani is expected to hear the final narration soon. The film is said to be a fresh love entertainer, and Sekhar Kammula is considering casting Sai Pallavi as the heroine, which is expected to be a great addition. If all goes as planned, an official announcement regarding this movie may be expected soon.







A Departure from Usual Style



Sekhar Kammula typically does not think about other projects while working on one, focusing entirely on the current film. However, he seems to have departed from this approach as he is already preparing stories for future projects while wrapping up current ones. This strategy might reduce the gap between his film releases. It is also noted that while working on these projects, Sekhar Kammula is already preparing the story for Nani's film. Currently, he is busy shooting 'Kubera', a pan-India film starring Tamil actor Dhanush and Telugu cinema stalwart Nagarjuna.







A First Time for This Combo



Till now, there hasn't been a film that brought Nani and Sekhar Kammula together. Sekhar has expressed his desire to work with Nani on multiple occasions. However, he has worked with Sai Pallavi in two films previously. She was introduced to the industry as a heroine with his film 'Fidaa', and she was also the leading lady in the film 'Love Story' starring Naga Chaitanya. Both these films were blockbuster successes and brought significant recognition to Sai Pallavi as an actress. On the other hand, Sai Pallavi and Nani have already worked together in two films, 'MCA' (Middle Class Abbayi) and 'Shyam Singha Roy', both of which received positive responses. Fans are eagerly anticipating a hat-trick success from their combo.







Will it Take a While?



After the film 'Saripodhaa Sanivaaram', Nani is currently gearing up for 'Hit 3' under the direction of Sailesh Kolanu. A glimpse of this film was recently released and captured attention. Additionally, Nani is planning another film with director Sujeeth and another with the director of 'Dasara'. Given these commitments, it might take another two years for this rare combo to be set, and Sekhar Kammula is also busy with the filming of 'Kubera'.






Nani and Sekhar Kammula Set for a First-Time Collaboration, Sai Pallavi Likely to Join


Cast: Rakesh Galebhe, Sravanthi Pattipati, Manasa Veena, Bhargav Gopinatham, Karthik Khandal, Aadi Naidu, Shiva Juturi, and others



Director: Komal R. Bharadwaj



Music: Gyani



Cinematography: Taylor Blumel



Editor: Chota K. Prasad



Producers: Hiranya, Padma, Komal R. Bharadwaj



Release Date: November 8, 2024



'Rahasyam Idham Jagath' stars Rakesh Galebhe, Sravanthi Pattipati, Manasa Veena, Bhargav Gopinatham, and others in key roles. Produced by Padma and Hiranya Ravinuthala under Single Cell Universe Production and directed by Komal R. Bharadwaj, the movie hit theaters today (November 8). Promoted as a film featuring elements of time travel and a multi-universe concept, let’s find out how this film fares.







What's the Story



The story takes place in America. Akira (Sravanthi) and her boyfriend Abhi (Rakesh) plan a trip to India. Before leaving, they decide to go on a trip with old friends (Vishwa, Kalyan, and Aru). They end up in a remote forest village where Akira’s ex, Vishwa, also joins them. Due to heavy snowfall, they are forced to stay the night in a local hotel. One of Akira’s friends, Aru, a scientist, is researching the concept of the multi-universe. A fight ensues, and Abhi ends up killing Akira and Kalyan. At this point, Aru reveals that there is a way to the multi-universe in the village. Desperate to bring his friends back to life, Abhi starts searching for a wormhole to the multi-universe. What happens next? Does Abhi find the wormhole? Can he save his friends? Do Abhi and Akira end up going to India? This is the story.







Performance&nbsp;



Rakesh, known for his hit short films, shines as the lead, particularly in his scenes traveling through the wormhole. Sravanthi impresses as Akira, while Aru fits well in the role of the scientist. Bhargav provides some laughs, and Karthik performs well in a negative role. The fact that the entire shoot took place in America, with training influenced by Hollywood, is evident in the actors' performances. The rest of the cast delivered well within their roles.







Direction



Director Komal R. Bharadwaj seems to have drawn inspiration from Hollywood films like Inception and Interstellar. However, he creatively connects these concepts with events from Indian mythology to resonate with the local audience. The way he links the multi-universe to the Sri Chakra and the wormhole is intriguing. The first half is mostly about the friends’ trip and conflicts, with the multi-universe element introduced right before the interval. In the second half, Abhi’s search for the wormhole and his time travel to save his friends are depicted. The interval scene and climax add strength to the film. However, the heavy use of American actors, the Hollywood-inspired scenes, and dialogues that lack a local touch are notable drawbacks.







Technical Aspects



Technically, the film stands out with its impressive visuals and cinematography, especially in the forest locations. However, the background music often overpowers the dialogues. The songs are decent, though dubbing could have been more refined. Production values are high, complementing the film’s theme well.

Romantic Escapes in Telangana: 26 Must-Visit Places for Couples This Winter


For some time now, rumors of discord between the Allu and Mega families have been circulating, especially since the AP elections when Bunny (Allu Arjun) showed support for a YSRCP leader. This intensified the rumors, leading to a heated exchange between Allu Army and Mega fans on social media platforms. However, the potential appearance of Pawan Kalyan at the 'Pushpa 2' pre-release event seemed to pause the feud momentarily. Yet, recent comments made by Mega hero Varun Tej have once again brought the Allu versus Mega controversy to the forefront, reigniting the social media war with his statements.



What Varun Tej said...



Mega Hero Varun Tej, starring alongside Meenakshi Chaudhary in the upcoming movie 'Matka' directed by Karuna Kumar, releasing in theaters on November 14, made some interesting comments at a grand pre-release event in Visakhapatnam. During his speech, Varun mentioned receiving a call from his brother Ram Charan while he was anxious about the movie's outcome. He shared that Charan said there's no need for words, just sitting beside him and putting a hand on his shoulder felt like earning Rs. 100 crores. "You might think I always talk about family. But forgetting where we came from, who stands behind us, renders any success meaningless. My elder uncle, uncle, and father are behind me," he remarked. This video of his speech is currently going viral online.

Indirect Punch at Bunny..!



Netizens believe that Varun Tej’s recent comments are an indirect jab at Icon Star Allu Arjun. They recall Allu Arjun's past remarks about Pawan Kalyan with the phrase "Cheppanu Brother." Initially, in his career, Bunny would speak of Mega Star Chiranjeevi and Pawan Kalyan at every movie event. However, rumors suggest Mega fans feel that Bunny, having achieved his own stardom, is reluctant to mention them now. The situation escalated during the AP elections. A short while ago, at a pre-release event in Maruthi Nagar, Bunny stated he would attend only if he liked to, differentiating himself from the Mega fans by mentioning "Allu Army" and expressing his special thanks by saying, "I love you," to his fans.




https://twitter.com/goudsaab410/status/1855646150281338887




Big War on Social Media!



Following Varun Tej’s remarks, Allu Army and Mega fans are clashing again on social media. Mega fans use the saying "A dog's bite cannot be healed by a slap" to suggest that no matter how high one rises, one should not forget their roots, as implied by Varun. Meanwhile, Bunny’s fans counter that it would have been great if Varun, enjoying his success, had made these comments. They allege that Varun's comments aim to separate Mega fans during his movie release. Whatever the case, Varun's latest remarks have undoubtedly added fuel to the ongoing Allu vs. Mega fan war.

Mega Fans Target 'Pushpa 2'!



The movie 'Pushpa 2', starring Allu Arjun and directed by Sukumar, is set for a global release on December 5th. While Allu Army and even Mega fans are eagerly awaiting its release, Mega fans have a strong reason to keep an eye out. There is talk among them that any negative talk about 'Pushpa 2' on social media should be used as an opportunity to play games with Bunny, planning to impact the film's collections by supporting a boycott. #Pushpa2boycott is also being prepared by them. However, the Allu Army claims no one can stop 'Pushpa 2's success. It remains to be seen what turn the Allu and Mega fan war will take next.

OTT Suggestions:"From Blockbusters to Binge-Worthy Shows: Top OTT Releases This Week You Can't Miss!"


For quite some time, there has been significant buzz about conflicts between Allu Arjun and the Mega family. The recent comments made by Varun Tej during the promotions of Matka have further fueled these speculations. Allu Arjun publicly supporting a political figure from Pawan Kalyan’s rival party during the Andhra Pradesh elections became the focal point of these disputes. Since then, Mega fans and Allu Army have been clashing on social media. Many film veterans and political analysts have also opined that Allu Arjun's actions were not appropriate. Amidst this ongoing controversy, Allu Arjun recently thanked the same YSRCP leader, which has led to claims that Bunny intentionally provoked Mega fans.



What Exactly Happened?



Icon Star Allu Arjun’s Pushpa 2 is set to release worldwide in two weeks. Directed by Sukumar, this film is eagerly awaited by audiences across the nation. Recently, the trailer of the movie was released, receiving tremendous response from viewers. In this context, former Nandyal MLA Silpa Ravi Chandra Kishore Reddy expressed his excitement about the film. He posted on X, stating that he couldn’t wait to witness the “wildfire” in theaters and wished the team all the best. Responding to this, Allu Arjun replied, “Thank you, brother. Grateful for your love.” This post has since gone viral.

Did Bunny Provoke Mega Fans?



Before DJ: Duvvada Jagannadham, Bunny frequently praised Pawan Kalyan and Megastar Chiranjeevi at his film events, showering them with compliments. However, during the promotions of DJ, he shocked Mega fans by saying “Cheppanu Brother” when asked about Pawan Kalyan. Following this, negative propaganda against DJ began circulating. Later, during the Andhra Pradesh elections, Bunny’s support for YSRCP candidate Silpa Ravi Chandra Kishore Reddy, including his personal visit to Nandyal urging people to vote for him, was deeply resented by Mega fans and Jana Sena supporters. They began trolling Bunny heavily on social media, a trend that continues to this day. Meanwhile, Allu Army has also been giving strong counters to these attacks. With Bunny thanking Silpa Ravi Reddy again, there are speculations that this act was meant to provoke Mega fans. However, Bunny’s fans defend him, stating that he merely replied to Silpa Ravi Reddy’s post.







How Did the Friendship with the YSRCP Leader Begin?



Nandyal YSRCP candidate Silpa Ravi’s wife, Nagini Reddy, and Allu Arjun’s wife, Sneha Reddy, were classmates. This connection led to Bunny and Silpa Ravi becoming acquaintances and later friends. During the 2019 elections, Bunny wished Silpa Ravi “all the best” via Twitter, and Silpa won with a huge majority. This time, as Silpa Ravi represented YSRCP again, Bunny actively supported him. While Bunny limited his support for his uncle Pawan Kalyan to a single tweet, his direct campaign for a rival party candidate became a hot topic in political circles. Eventually, in Nandyal, TDP candidate Farooq contested on behalf of the alliance and won by a massive majority.







Exciting Update on the Item Song!



It is well known that dancing queen Sreeleela performed the item song Kissik in Pushpa 2. There’s a buzz online that the lyrical version of this special song will release on November 23, with an official announcement expected soon. According to industry talk, Allu Arjun and Sreeleela’s dance moves in this song are electrifying. Rumor has it that Sreeleela was paid a whopping ₹2 crore for this song. Bunny’s fans are optimistic that Kissik will surpass the popularity of Oo Antava Oo Oo Antava from Pushpa.







Garikapati Fires on Bunny



As the release of Pushpa 2 approaches, a new controversy has emerged on social media. Comments made by prominent preacher Garikapati Narasimha Rao about Pushpa back in 2021 are resurfacing. Garikapati criticized the film, stating that movies like Pushpa are harmful to society. In the resurfaced video, Garikapati remarks, “How appropriate is it to portray a red sandalwood smuggler as a hero? The entire movie glorifies smuggling, with the message ‘wait for the next part to see the redemption.’ Meanwhile, society deteriorates. A smuggler saying ‘Taggede Le’ (I won’t back down) is unacceptable. Phrases like ‘Taggede Le’ should be reserved for figures like Harishchandra or Lord Rama, not smugglers.” His statements are once again sparking debates.

Allu Arjun Sparks Mega Controversy Again: Provocation or Misunderstanding?


Rumors have been circulating for some time now about tensions between the Allu and Mega families, who were once as close as milk and water. The controversy supposedly began when Bunny supported a YSRCP candidate and even campaigned against Pawan Kalyan during the AP elections. Since then, social media has become a battleground for Allu Army and Mega fans, who have been at each other’s throats. Recently, Pawan Kalyan indirectly criticized the movie "Pushpa," which only added fuel to the fire. In this ongoing feud, Allu Arjun’s recent comments have become a hot topic in the industry and have sparked another round of fan wars on social media. The rumors have gained traction again, suggesting that the rift between the two families is growing. Netizens are beginning to suspect that the relationship between the two families might have reached a breaking point.



I’ll Come If I Like It



Allu Arjun was the chief guest at the pre-release event of the movie "Maruti Nagar Subrahmanyam," starring Rao Ramesh in a pivotal role. Director Sukumar and Allu Arjun attended the event, and the movie was presented by Sukumar's wife, Tabitha. During the event, Allu Arjun made some interesting remarks, which were seen as indirect jabs at the Mega family and their fans. He said, "Maruti Nagar Subrahmanyam is being presented by Sukumar's wife, Tabitha. While we were in the middle of the Pushpa 2 climax shoot, she came and asked Sukumar, 'If not you, who else should I invite to my movie event?' Despite being in the most challenging climax I’ve ever done, I came because she invited me. You have to show love for those you care about. If I like it, I’ll come. If my heart tells me, I’ll come." These comments quickly went viral online. People began to speculate that Bunny, who campaigned for a YSRCP candidate, could have done the same for Pawan Kalyan, which was his way of responding.




https://twitter.com/i/status/1826302303244091491




"I’m Crazy About My Fans"



At the same pre-release event, Bunny spoke highly of his fans, the Allu Army. "My dear fans, my Army, I love you. I’m crazy about my fans. Many people become fans after seeing a hero. I became a hero after seeing my fans. Even though it’s been three years since my last movie, your love hasn’t diminished at all. I’ll forever be indebted to you. I won’t trouble you anymore. I’ll definitely make more movies and be on screen more often," he said. However, Bunny had never spoken about his fans with such passion before. Since supporting a YSRCP leader, he has been heavily targeted by Jana Sena followers and Mega fans alike, who have trolled him mercilessly on social media. During that time, the Allu Army stood by their hero and fought back valiantly, countering every criticism. Given this, Bunny may have been expressing his gratitude to his fans in his own style. Another point worth noting in Bunny's speech is that, unlike before, he specifically mentioned the Allu Army instead of addressing both Mega fans and the Allu Army together. This has led to accusations that Bunny is encouraging divisions among Mega fans.







Simple Wishes for Chiru!



Today (August 22), Mega fans are celebrating Megastar Chiranjeevi’s birthday with great enthusiasm. Fans are extending their warm wishes to the hero who has remained at the top in Telugu cinema for almost 30 years. Allu Arjun also wished the Megastar a happy birthday. However, his simple birthday wishes to the person who gave him his life have drawn criticism. Mega fans have expressed strong objections to this. Responding to X, Bunny posted, "Many happy returns of the day to our Megastar Chiranjeevi Garu." However, in the past, Bunny never posted such a simple tweet. Bunny, who usually goes all out for Chiru’s birthday, offering just simple wishes this time has led netizens to believe that the ongoing conflict between the two families might be the reason behind it.

Pawan’s Indirect Digs at Bunny!



Recently, AP Deputy CM Pawan Kalyan visited Karnataka and made some intriguing comments during a press meet. He remarked that 40 years ago, heroes in movies protected the forests, but now, heroes are seen cutting down trees and engaging in smuggling. Pawan Kalyan's comments went viral in Tollywood, and many speculated that he was referring to the movie "Pushpa," starring Allu Arjun. This sparked a major fan war between Jana Sena followers, Mega fans, and the Allu Army on social media.






Allu vs Mega Families: Is Allu Arjun Giving a Strong Response to the Mega Family?


Puri Jagannadh is one of the star directors in Tollywood. There was a time when a movie from Puri meant theaters were bustling with mass audiences and his signature dialogues would electrify the youth. However, the frenzy for Puri's films has waned recently. Blockbusters like 'Pokiri', 'Businessman', and 'Temper' have not been forthcoming. His latest film 'Liger' was a significant failure, drawing widespread criticism. Fans are longing for the return of the old Puri. In this context, it's reported that Vijayendra Prasad, a prominent writer and father of Rajamouli, has scolded Puri. Director Puri himself shared this incident.



"Tell me before you make a movie"



In the upcoming movie directed by Puri Jagannadh, starring Ram Pothineni, titled 'Double iSmart', an exciting event occurred during the pre-release event held in Hanamkonda on Sunday, August 11. The film is set to meet audiences on August 15. At the event, Puri shared an intriguing detail, "When a movie is a hit, many call to congratulate. I also received a call for a flop movie. It wasn’t just anybody; it was Vijayendra Prasad. He asked if he could help me. His son Rajamouli is a top director, so I wondered how I could possibly help. He then asked, 'When is your next film? Will you tell me the story whenever you make it?' I understood why he was saying this. He couldn’t bear to see directors like me fail. You all make small mistakes. So, tell me before you make a film," he said. Puri was moved by his words and said he could never forget that call made out of affection for him. However, he did not share the story with him. "I wanted to be cautious and only show him the movie," Puri said.

The story must be told!



Director Vijayendra Prasad, father of S.S. Rajamouli, has a profound admiration for director Puri Jagannadh. He has expressed his preference for Puri among directors in a past interview and even showcased using Puri’s photo as his mobile wallpaper. Despite this esteem, Puri recently revealed that he declined to narrate a story to Vijayendra Prasad, which has sparked intense reactions online. Netizens are questioning why Puri would not engage with the writer who provided stories for blockbuster films like 'Baahubali' and 'RRR'. They argue that Vijayendra Prasad could have identified errors in the 'Double iSmart' script, suggesting it would have been prudent for Puri to have shared the story with him to avoid risk.







We need some clarity!



During the 'Double iSmart' pre-release event, hero Ram Pothineni made some compelling remarks for those who stop going to theaters after seeing negative reviews. "Many of us don't respect our own opinions. If we like the biryani at a restaurant, we shouldn't doubt our taste just because others didn't like it. I enjoyed it, so I think it's good. The same goes for movies and your career. Don’t change your opinion because of others. If we always compare ourselves to others' opinions, we can’t accomplish anything. I'm telling all this because you are my people," Ram said. These energetic star's comments have been widely endorsed by the majority of netizens.

When Titans Talk: Vijayendra Prasad’s Candid Call to Puri Jagannadh


Tamil superstar Vijay stars in the latest action thriller 'The Goat' (The Greatest Of All Time), directed by Venkat Prabhu. Meenakshi Chaudhary plays the leading lady, while Sneha, Laila, Prashanth, and Prabhu Deva have significant roles. This film, developed with de-aging technology, has garnered high expectations as it is rumored to be Vijay's final movie before his political entry. It was released worldwide on Thursday (September 5) and received mixed reactions in the Telugu states, but it was a hit among Vijay's fans in Tamil Nadu. Let’s see how the movie performed on its first day.



Day 1 Collections



Matching the high expectations, 'The Goat' (The Greatest Of All Time) raked in impressive collections on its first day. In India alone, the film is estimated to have grossed over ₹55 crores, with a net collection of ₹43 crores. Tamil Nadu alone contributed a gross of ₹38.3 crores. The Telugu states accounted for ₹3 crores and Hindi markets brought in ₹1.7 crores in gross collections. The worldwide gross is expected to surpass ₹80 crores on the first day. However, according to trade estimates, 'The Goat' could not surpass the record set by Vijay’s previous film 'Leo', which collected ₹148.5 crores on its first day.







What's 'The Goat' Like?



Director Venkat Prabhu’s story does not present much novelty. Movies featuring a hero working in defense sectors and villains raising the hero’s son only to use him against the hero have been seen before. However, the scenes depicting the son’s revenge feel intriguing. The first half mainly introduces the hero and other characters, progressing predictably until the pre-interval. The interval scene raises interest for the second half, which largely unfolds as expected, but the climax is crafted to captivate. The twists in the second half are sure to surprise the audience. The Tamil essence in comedy and dialogues might not appeal much to the Telugu audience, but Vijay's fans will likely find the film immensely engaging.







The Plot



Gandhi (Vijay), a special anti-terrorism squad officer, conducts various successful missions with his teammates Sunil (Prashant), Ajay (Ajmal), and Kalyan Sundaram (Prabhu Deva). However, he keeps his job a secret from his wife Anu (Sneha). During one mission abroad, his five-year-old son dies. Believing her husband to be responsible, Anu distances herself from Gandhi. Distraught, Gandhi leaves the force. Years later, on a trip to Moscow, he encounters his son Jeevan (Vijay), whom he thought was dead, alive. Overjoyed, he brings him back to India. From then on, Gandhi’s acquaintances start dying one by one. Who is responsible for these deaths? How did his presumed-dead son come back? How does Gandhi stop the killings? These questions form the crux of the story.

Vijay's 'The Goat' Makes a Strong Impact with First-Day Collections Despite Mixed Reviews


Tamil star hero Vijay stars in the latest action thriller "The Goat" (The Greatest Of All Time), directed by Venkat Prabhu. Meenakshi Chaudhary is the heroine, with Sneha, Laila, Prashanth, and Prabhudeva playing key roles. The film, featuring de-aging technology, marks Vijay's last movie before his rumoured entry into politics, which has spiked expectations. However, it was released worldwide on Thursday, September 5. In Telugu-speaking regions, the film received mixed reviews, whereas in Tamil Nadu, it particularly captivated Vijay's fanbase and garnered a hit talk. On its first day, the movie grossed over Rs. 120 crore. Now, let’s see how the weekend collections shaped up.



How Much Did The Weekend Collections Amount To?



Vijay’s "The Goat" (The Greatest Of All Time) lived up to expectations at the box office, grossing Rs. 282.5 crore worldwide in the first four days, narrowly missing the Rs. 300 crore club. However, it set a record as the highest-grossing Tamil film of the year. Dhanush's recent film 'Raayan' crossed lifetime gross earnings of Rs. 154 crore within the first two days and set this feat. Notably, 'The Goat' grossed Rs. 106.40 crore in Tamil Nadu alone. In the two Telugu-speaking states, it collected Rs. 10.10 crore, Rs. 21.1 crore in Karnataka, Rs. 10.4 crore in Kerala, and Rs. 13.9 crore in the rest of India. Overseas, the film fetched around Rs. 120.15 crore according to trade estimates. Currently, the film is surging towards the Rs. 300 crore club.







What’s The Film Like?



Director Venkat Prabhu’s storyline doesn’t bring anything new to the table. Movies featuring a hero working in defense and the villain raising the hero’s son only to turn him against his father have been quite common. However, the scenes written about the son’s revenge seem interesting. The first half is mostly spent introducing the hero and other characters, with the story unfolding predictably until the pre-interval. The interval scene sets up an intriguing second half. Though the second half also largely unfolds as expected, the director successfully crafted an engaging climax. The twists in the second half will surprise the audience. The film’s comedy and dialogues are deeply infused with Tamil elements, which might not appeal as much to the Telugu audience. However, for Vijay's fans, this film is sure to be a treat.

Distraught, Gandhi leaves the force. Years later, on a trip to Moscow, he encounters his son Jeevan (Vijay), whom he thought was dead, alive. Overjoyed, he brings him back to India. From then on, Gandhi’s acquaintances start dying one by one. Who is responsible for these deaths? How did his presumed-dead son come back? How does Gandhi stop the killings? These questions form the crux of the story.






Vijay's 'The Goat' Nears ₹300 Crore Mark with Impressive Box Office Performance


Bollywood beauties Bhagyashri Borse and Janhvi Kapoor have been gaining recognition as the future heroines of Tollywood for some time now. There was considerable buzz that a solid hit could ensure a series of opportunities for these actresses. However, their first films did not captivate the audience as expected. Bhagyashri Borse faced a flop with the movie 'Mr. Bachchan'. Although Janhvi Kapoor had a successful film with 'Devara', her role was too brief to be highlighted significantly. Both actresses are now pinning high hopes on their upcoming films.



The Burden is All on Charan!



Entering Tollywood with the big star Tarak in 'Devara', Janhvi Kapoor, the daughter of Sridevi, had created a significant buzz even before its release. She was actively involved in promotions and managed to attract everyone's attention. However, after the release, Janhvi’s character left much to be desired, reminiscent of a guest role, which greatly disappointed her fans. Now, Janhvi’s hopes are all pinned on the upcoming project 'RC 16', a collaboration between Ram Charan and Buchi Babu. Whether she will get a substantial role in this film remains a question among her fans. If Janhvi proved her mettle as an actress, she could also become popular in Telugu cinema. It remains to be seen how well she will impress in RC 16.







Bhagyashri Borse's Bright Future!



Until the release of 'Mr. Bachchan', Bhagyashri Borse's name resonated strongly in Tollywood, hailed as the future queen. However, an unexpected disaster with 'Mr. Bachchan' evaporated all the high hopes placed on her. Yet, she has managed to make a mark as an actress. Currently, she is reportedly acting in 'VD12' alongside Vijay Deverakonda and has recently embarked on a pan-India project with Dulquer Salman titled 'Kaanta'. Furthermore, many young actors are keen to work with Bhagyashri, suggesting that despite the flop of 'Mr. Bachchan', her fame remains untarnished. Film analysts predict that a proper hit could easily catapult her into the top tier of Telugu heroines.







From Sridevi's Daughter to a Star Heroine!



Janhvi made her entry into Bollywood as Sridevi’s daughter with the Marathi film 'Sairat' remake, 'Dhadak'. She then acted in 'Gunjan Saxena', earning acclaim for her performance based on a real-life story. While she continued to take on roles in films like 'Good Luck Jerry', 'Mili', and 'Bawaal', major success eluded her. However, her appearance in a special song in 'Rakhi Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani' caught everyone's eye. Recently, she has received praise for her roles as the female lead in Bollywood films 'Mr. and Mrs. Mahi' and 'Ulaaj'. Currently, Janhvi is filming 'Sunny Sanskriti ki Tulsi Kumari' in Hindi.







Background of Bhagyashri!



Bhagyashri Borse hails from Pune, Maharashtra. She made her silver screen debut with the Hindi film 'Yaariyan 2' after modeling in various ads, notably gaining fame with Cadbury Dairy Milk Silk commercials. Impressed by her acting in 'Yaariyan 2', director Harish Shankar gave her a chance in 'Mr. Bachchan'. Since then, this actress has created a buzz in Tollywood, securing more offers. Known for her cute looks, Bhagyashri is also very active on social media, frequently treating fans to glamorous updates and thus enhancing her popularity beyond cinema.

20 Romantic Gift Ideas for Your Lover This Diwali to Strengthen Your Bond


With 'Dasara,' actor Nani has entered the 100 crore club for the first time. Director Srikanth Odela, who made his debut with this film, has earned a unique recognition for himself. Having worked as an assistant to Sukumar on 'Rangasthalam,' Srikanth gained star director status with his very first film. He is now set to direct his second film with Nani as well. This movie has been titled 'The Paradise.' An exciting update about this film has surfaced: a legendary actor is rumored to be part of this movie, much to the delight of Nani's fans.



Mohan Babu as the Villain!



The upcoming film 'The Paradise,' directed by Srikanth Odela and starring Nani, is set against a Secunderabad backdrop. The villain's role is said to be crucial in this film. It is believed that a senior actor would do justice to this character. After considering several names, the buzz is strong that Manchu Mohan Babu has been finalized for this role. Director Srikanth Odela reportedly explained the villain role to Mohan Babu, who liked it very much and immediately gave the green light. There is much anticipation among cinema lovers to see the on-screen confrontation between Natural Star Nani and Dialogue King Mohan Babu.







Can He Match the Dialogue King?



Mohan Babu, known as the Dialogue King, is a distinctive actor in Tollywood. He has left an indelible mark as a hero, villain, comedian, character artist, and producer. In the early days of his career, Mohan Babu was predominantly seen in villain roles. He has the capability to deliver even the most challenging dialogues effortlessly. Matching up to Mohan Babu is no ordinary task for Nani. Previously, in the film 'Bujjigadu,' Mohan Babu played a role with negative shades, and it was rumored that Prabhas was overshadowed in some scenes. Now, the Nani-Mohan Babu combo in 'The Paradise' is also likely to captivate audiences similarly. This film is being touted as a significant test for Nani, marking the first time he will share the screen with a veteran actor.







Frustration Over Title Leak



The title for the upcoming movie 'The Paradise,' a collaboration between actor Nani and director Srikanth Odela, was leaked before the makers could officially announce it. This forced Srikanth Odela to announce the title, even though he initially intended to start shooting under a working title. Recently, the director expressed significant frustration over this leak. He indicated that he knows the individuals responsible for such acts, denying rumors that it was someone from his team. He advised against hastily blaming assistant directors or writers whenever a leak happens and urged for a change in the habit of casting blame on hardworking departments. He clarified that the leak did not come from his team, confirming he knows who was responsible.






Nani’s 'The Paradise' to Feature Dialogue King Mohan Babu as the Villain – A Blockbuster in the Making?


Malayalam beauty and actress Sai Pallavi rapidly ascended to stardom in a relatively short period. Although she has appeared in only a few films, she has gained substantial recognition for her unique acting skills. In a time often characterized by bikini and kissing scenes, she captivates audiences with her performances in traditional attire and her exceptional dancing abilities. Recently, at the 68th Filmfare Awards South 2023, Sai Pallavi set a new record, achieving a rare distinction that no other heroine has accomplished.



'Sai Pallavi's unique record as a Heroine&nbsp;



The Filmfare Awards South are highly prestigious in the South Indian film industry. Recently, the 68th Filmfare South Awards were announced, considering films from 2022 and 2023. For her role in the Tamil film 'Gargi', Sai Pallavi won the Best Actress award. She also secured the Best Female Actor award in the Critics' category for her performance in the Telugu film 'Virata Parvam'. Thus, she became the only heroine to win awards in two languages in the same year, earning widespread praise for Sai Pallavi.







Six Filmfare Awards



Sai Pallavi first entered the film industry with the Tamil movie 'Premam', which resonated well with the youth. She then made a mark with her role as Bhanumathi in the Telugu film 'Fidaa'. Having acted in 19 films across Telugu, Tamil, and Malayalam languages so far, Sai Pallavi has won six Filmfare awards. She stands out as the heroine who achieved this feat in such a short period in South India.&nbsp;







Movies in which Sai Pallavi won awards:



Premam (2015) – Best Actress (Debut)Fidaa (2017) – Best ActressLove Story (2021) – Best ActressShyam Singha Roy (2021) – Best Actress (Critics)Gargi (2022) – Best ActressVirata Parvam (2022) – Best Actress (Critics)







Address of Love Films



Since 'Premam', Sai Pallavi has been selective about her roles, staying away from commercial cinema and skin shows. She chooses films with substantial content and has acted in heart-touching love stories. Movies like 'Premam', 'Fidaa', and 'Love Story' have not only brought her recognition but also created a separate fan base for her. Her excellent performance in 'Virata Parvam' alongside Rana took her acting to the next level.







Sai Pallavi in Full Swing



Currently, Sai Pallavi is very active in films. She is working alongside Naga Chaitanya in the Telugu film 'Thandel', which is ready for release. She is also busy with the Tamil film 'Amaran' alongside Sivakarthikeyan. In addition, Sai Pallavi has agreed to two major projects in Bollywood, including the prestigious 'Ramayanam', where she will star as Sita alongside Ranbir Kapoor as Rama. There are also reports that she has been cast as the heroine in a Vijay Deverakonda film.






Sai Pallavi Sets New Record at 68th Filmfare Awards South: A Unique Achievement


It is well known that Tollywood actor Akkineni Naga Chaitanya and star heroine Samantha got married in 2017 and separated in 2021 due to disagreements. Three years later, Naga Chaitanya is ready to remarry, this time to actress Sobhita Dhulipala. In this context, netizens are sympathizing with Samantha, intertwining her current situation and past incidents with the life of the legendary actress Savitri. They are drawing parallels between Sam's life and that of Savitri, posting about it extensively. Let’s explore what these posts are suggesting.



What’s the Connection Between Samantha and Savitri’s Life?



In 2021, during her divorce from Naga Chaitanya, Samantha was heavily targeted by the public. However, now that Chaitanya is preparing for his second marriage, netizens are expressing their sympathy towards Samantha on a large scale, comparing her situation with that of Savitri, who was a celebrated actress. At the peak of her cinema career, Savitri’s life was influenced by the already married actor Gemini Ganesan. By that time, Ganesan’s career was moderate compared to Savitri’s. Savitri, deeply in love, married Ganesan but later found him intimately involved with another woman. Unable to bear the betrayal, she fell into depression and became dependent on alcohol, which led to numerous health issues and prematurely ended her career. Netizens speculate that Samantha might have undergone a similar ordeal? They suggest that these struggles drove Samantha to divorce Chaitanya.

‘What’s So Special About Sobhita?’







If Samantha Does It, It’s Wrong… If Sobhita Does It, It’s Right?



Samantha was heavily criticized for her bold roles in films, which some claimed were the reason for her divorce. Now, there’s a keen interest in Sobhita's screen presence as Naga Chaitanya prepares to marry her. Netizens are pointing out that Sobhita has acted in more bold scenes than Samantha, citing her roles in the bold web series 'Made in Heaven' and her intense performances in 'The Night Manager', where she appeared in bikini and intimate scenes. Recently, in 'The Monkey Man', Sobhita was again seen in bold portrayals. This has led to questions about why Naga Chaitanya would divorce Samantha for being bold in her roles, only to marry Sobhita, who has portrayed even bolder scenes.







Did You Know This About Sobhita?



Sobhita Dhulipala was born in Tenali, Andhra Pradesh. She became the Femina Miss India in 2013. She entered the Bollywood scene with the 2016 movie 'Raman Raghav 2.0'. Following that, she gained recognition with movies like 'Chef' and 'Kaalakaandi'. In 2018, Sobhita made her Tollywood debut with 'Goodachari', charming the Telugu youth audience. She then played key roles in 'Major' and 'Ponniyin Selvan 1 &amp; 2', earning praise for her performances. Recently, she acted in the American film 'Monkey Man'. She is currently involved in a Hindi film titled 'Sitara', while Naga Chaitanya is busy with 'Tandel', directed by Chandoo Mondeti.







Naga Chaitanya’s Reaction Is This!



Amidst the heavy trolling over his engagement with Sobhita, Naga Chaitanya responded. On Instagram, he reposted the engagement photos and an interesting caption shared by Sobhita. He added, "What does my mother become to you? What relation is my father to you? No matter how we come together, our hearts are raining like the red earth. They have merged inseparably," quoting from a poem by the Tamil poet Kurunthogai. This post, supported by Akkineni, has left Sam's fans quite upset.&nbsp;

Samantha: Similarities to the Life of Legendary Actress Savitri?


Fans have been eagerly awaiting the silver screen debut of Nandamuri Balakrishna's son, Mokshagna Teja, for a long time. Now, the Nandamuri heir is ready to make his entry into the film industry. 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. It is reported that he has already prepared a pan-India story. In this scenario, Prasanth Varma is considering bringing Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan onboard for a crucial role. The director believes that only Big B can do complete justice to this character and is expected to approach him soon regarding the same.







Prasanth Varma's Big Plan!



Sources suggest that director Prasanth Varma plans to make a grand entry into Bollywood by casting Amitabh in Mokshagna's film. He believes that having such a legendary actor in the movie will also benefit Mokshagna. There is also buzz in the industry that this film with Mokshagna will be a part of Prasanth Varma's cinematic universe. Strong speculations indicate that the Nandamuri heir will be seen in the role of Abhimanyu. It is also said that several prominent actors will be part of the cast. An official announcement regarding these details is expected soon.







Big B Said No to Balayya!



In the past, director Krishna Vamsi planned a movie with the combination of Nandamuri Balakrishna and Amitabh Bachchan. Reports at that time suggested that Big B politely declined when approached for the project, leading to its shelving. With this history, there is curiosity about whether Amitabh, who once said no to Balayya, will act in his son's debut film. Additionally, there is information that Sreeleela is being considered as the female lead opposite Mokshagna in this movie. Key updates regarding the film are expected to be announced soon.







Why Prasanth Varma?



Everyone has been curious about who would introduce Mokshagna Teja, the third-generation hero from the Nandamuri lineage, to the industry. Names of star directors like Boyapati were also floated. However, Balayya chose young director Prasanth Varma for his son's debut, and there seems to be a strong reason behind this decision. 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. Moreover, their personal rapport might have influenced Balayya's decision to favor Prasanth Varma.







In a Handsome Look..



Photos of Nandamuri Mokshagna sporting a handsome look have recently surfaced on the internet. In these pictures, Mokshagna mesmerized everyone with his dashing appearance, looking completely fit and surprising many. He conveyed through his new look that he is a perfect star hero material. Nandamuri fans are ecstatic seeing Mokshagna's makeover, commenting that he has transformed exactly as they had envisioned Balakrishna's son to be. They have been posting that the time has come for another Nandamuri heir to step into the industry.






Mokshagna Teja: Bollywood Star Hero in Mokshagna's First Movie.. Prasanth Varma's Big Plan!


The latest film starring Kollywood star hero Vijay, titled 'The Goat' (The Greatest Of All Time), released on September 5 and has been a massive hit in Tamil Nadu, even crossing the Rs. 300 crore mark with impressive overseas collections. However, the film seems to be facing strong resistance in the Telugu and Hindi markets. In this context, the film's director Venkat Prabhu responded, sparking a heated debate on social media.



'That's Why They Didn't Like It'



In Telugu and Hindi, 'The Goat' (The Greatest Of All Time) did not meet the expected levels of success. Mythri Movie Makers, a prominent production company, purchased the film for Rs. 22 crores in Telugu, but so far, it has only grossed Rs. 10 crores. Current circumstances suggest that even breaking even may be difficult. Against this backdrop, director Venkat Prabhu took to social media to express his views. He suggested that scenes related to Chennai Super Kings and MS Dhoni, which were highlights, did not resonate well with Telugu and Hindi audiences, which might be why the film underperformed in these regions. He also accused fans of the IPL teams from Mumbai and Bangalore of excessively trolling his film, attributing this to his known fandom of Chennai Super Kings. Venkat Prabhu's comments have become a hot topic on social media.

Telugu Audience Fires Back..!



Telugu audiences are strongly criticizing Venkat Prabhu's recent comments. They are posting online that there are other reasons for 'The Goat's disaster performance in Telugu. Comments suggest that if the content is good, they support films irrespective of the industry. They remind the director of the massive success his previous film 'Maanaadu' had in Telugu, indicating that MS Dhoni also has a huge fanbase in the Telugu states, with stadiums filling up in yellow jerseys whenever a CSK match is played in Hyderabad. They are requesting that the actual reasons for 'The Goat's failure be investigated.







Reasons for the Flop in Telugu Are These!



Director Venkat Prabhu made 'The Goat' with a routine story where Vijay played dual roles as father and son. Despite the terrorism backdrop, it lacked the twists typically seen in agent films. There were no twists or turns in the story, and even the operations conducted by the hero lacked thrill. Additionally, unnecessary songs and Yogi Babu's comedy track tested the patience of the Telugu audience. However, the action sequences and the IPL track in the climax managed to generate some excitement.







Dhoni Said No!



'The Goat' featured many cameo roles. Sivakarthikeyan and Trisha appeared as guests, and India's former cricket captain MS Dhoni was also shown during the climax using IPL visuals. Director Venkat Prabhu originally intended to have a scene with Dhoni in the film, but since Dhoni did not agree, they had to resort to using IPL visuals. The 20-minute climax episode captivated cricket lovers immensely.







Furious Over Negative Reviews



Director Venkat Prabhu responded to the negative reviews of 'The Goat.' "People don't talk about the effort we put into making the film. Some intentionally post negative comments. We included references in the film not found in any other movie, all to celebrate every hero fan. The film wasn't made just for the guest appearances but was crafted to include everything audiences desire. We made this film for the audience, not the reviewers," he stated.
