Southern actress Chandini Tamilarasan, who is making her Telugu debut with upcoming action-drama "Kalicharan", is proud to be associated with the project. She says she is happy to have bagged such an important role early on in her career.

Set in the 1980s, "Kalicharan" is based on true incidents revolving around the life of late MLA Erra Satyam.

"It's a realistic film and I play a role sans glamour. I'm proud to be part of this project because it's one of those roles very few actresses have attempted before and I'm extremely happy about it," Chandini told.

"I can do glamorous roles any day in my career, but these roles don't come often. I didn't want to miss the opportunity because this was the ticket to prove my acting prowess," she added.

She admits bits of the movie are fictionalised.

"A part of the story is based on true events, but the entire love portion is fictionalised for commercial purposes. The love track in the film is so poetic that it will make people think about my portion over and over again," she said.

She is paired opposite Chaitanya Krishna in the film, which is directed and produced by Sri Prawin. It also features Pankaj Kesari, Kavitha Srinivasan, Nagineedu and Rao Ramesh in important roles.

Chandini found shooting outdoors very challenging.

"We shot most of the film in places which were reminiscent of the 1980s. We used to travel for long hours every day and shoot outdoors mostly. At times, one shot would be canned for the entire day because Prawin wouldn't compromise on the quality," said Chandini, who also researched to prepare for her role.

"There wasn't much of research required for my role but, I did basic research on the looks of women in that era. It helped me to understand few important things that I could incorporate in my role," she added.

She clarifies the film is not violent, but realistic.

"It's a realistic film with all commercial ingredients. It's one of those visually engrossing films, but not as violent as it's shown in the trailer. The trailer was purposefully made so violent to attract attention and create hullaballoo around the film," she said.

Chandini's Tamil film "Naan Rajavaga Pogiren" released Friday. She is currently going through a few scripts and is likely to sign the dotted line soon.

Rating: 1.75/5.0

Victory Venkatesh's ‘Shadow’ film was released today with high expectations. Director Meher Ramesh who is looking for a hit convinced Venkatesh to act in this stylish revenge drama. Venkatesh who stayed away from out and out action films in recent years, tried to be different in looks and body language in this film.

Story

Raghu Ram (Naga Babu) is an investigative journalist killed by mafia don Nana Bhai (Aditya Pancholi) in front of his son Raja Ram (Venkatesh).  Raja Ram escapes the scene and becomes Shadow to take revenge for his father’s death. How Shadow succeeded in his mission forms the crux of the story.

Performance

Venkatesh who tried to be different in looks failed to create any impact. The role is outdated and lacks energy.

Tapsee is just for glamour and there is nothing much to showcase her acting talent. Acting of Srikanth who played the police officer role is stereo type. Madhurima is limited to couple of scenes.

Nagababu  did justice to his five minutes role. Geetha is adequate in mother role.

All the villains Aditya Pancholi , Rahul Dev, Supreeth, Sayaji Shindey and Negineedu etc are routine. Rajesh, Srinivas Reddy, Kishore, Subba Raju, Uttej and many others fill the screen with no real purpose. No one has got a role with substance including protagonist and antagonist. M S Narayana is real relief in the film.

Technical

Director Meher Ramesh chose an outdated script to make a stylish action entertainer. However, everything goes haywire with his immature screenplay. Director didn’t conceive a single scene with a purpose.

Cinematography is the only saving aspect in the movie. Choreography and action are average and not enough if you are projecting this movie as out and out action entertainer. Music by S S Thaman is cacophonous and rerecording is pretty ordinary.

Production values are good and spent quite a lot of money in shooting most of the film in foreign locales.

Plus Points

Nothing

Minus Points

Every thing

Analysis

Meher Ramesh should be appreciated for convincing Venkatesh with this rotten script. Director simply wasted real after real without much substance wise.  Director ran out of ideas even borrowed antakshari scene from Gabbar Singh, Chanti character from Chanti to progress the movie. Venkatesh looked odd in as Chanti who suffers memory loss because of the accident. Unfortunately, all his attempts failed to yield any good results for the film. The movie runs on predictable note from opening scene to climax. Director didn’t etch any of the character in the movie well. There are one too many characters with no real purpose to the movie progress.

Finally, Shadow will become one of the worst flops in Venkatesh career. After this movie Mehar Ramesh needs to re access his directional skills.  No one could save this ‘Shadow’ from disaster even the likes of Pawan Kalyan, Mahesh Babu, NTR and Ram Charan. Strictly avoid ‘Shadow’ even if you need to sit idle and bite your nails!

Final Talk

Madhu Babu novel hero Shadow is way better than Mehar Ramesh Shadow

PeeCee is a style conscious chick and it’s pretty evident in the way she carries herself. The babe was seen in supremely fashionable outfits in the new prints ads of Coolpix. In one of the ads, she’s strutting around in a slinky white dress, which has a sexy, temperature raising hemline. We particularly like the V-shaped pattern of the back – it’s super hot. In the other, she’s seen in a traditional dress sans dupatta.

From the choice of the lipstick to the earrings, everything’s spot-on. And as PC stuns you into silence, the orange camera catches your attention. Very stylishly chick, indeed!

Performance

Nitya Menon from the beginning scoring good marks with her performance and she did so in this film also. Isha Talwar did not get scope for performance and Jwala Gutta's song is a big minus.

New Delhi, April 19: In a shocking incident, a five-year-old girl was repeatedly raped for two days by her neghbour. More shocking is the news that police offered the girl's father a bribe of Rs. 2,000 to maintain silence when he went to them to complain.

The girl was abducted April 15 and kept hostage for two days without food and water in a flat owned by the attacker, said to be in his 30s. He lived on the ground floor of the building in east Delhi's Gandhi Nagar, in which the victim's family also stayed, police said.

The girl is now batting for her life in the All India Institute of Medical Sciences. The girl who was earlier admitted to Swami Dayananda Hospital in East Delhi was shifted to AIMS after public outcry and as the girl's condition turned serious. It is learnt that the girl's throat was cut and her genitals were badly mutilated.

The father of the girl said Friday that the police had offered him Rs.2,000 to keep quiet, and advised him to "thank god that his daughter was alive".

"We went to the police to register an FIR (First Information Report) but they refused. They never tried to find her, and instead drove us away," the father of the victim told reporters here outside the Swami Dayananda Hospital.

The father said that when the family finally found the girl Wednesday, the police told the family to not highlight the issue, and offered them Rs.2000 to keep mum.

"The police told us that we should not highlight the issue in the media and gave us Rs.2,000 as kharcha-pani (for expenses and refreshment)," said the father, adding that the police further told them to "thank god that his daughter was alive".

"The police told us to take our daughter home and pray for her recovery," said one of the girl's relatives.

The girl was raped repeatedly, and rescued when members of her family heard her screams Wednesday evening, police said.

A doctor treating the child said her condition is "serious" and the "next 24-48 hours are critical".

Earlier, a large gathering of protestors gathered outside the hospital and shouted slogans, demanding the resignation of the Delhi Chief Minister Shiela Dixit. They also demanded that the accused be immediately shot dead.

If you think the girl under the jacket in this poster (left) of Aashiqui 2 is the film heroine Shraddha Kapoor, you wrong.

It is director’s lovely sister Smiley Suri. Director Mohit Suri gets his sister to pose for the posters as he considers her his lucky charm.

The forthcoming romantic musical saga, however, has Shraddha Kapoor as the female lead, while Aditya Roy Kapoor plays her love interest.

Smiley Suri may not have had that great a career in films, but the Kalyug girl, who surprised the audiences with her superb acting in her debut film, is still appearing on the posters of Aashiqui 2!

Smiley confirmed  "Yes, it's me in the poster. When Mohit decided to make the film, he didn't have a face for the film, so he requested me if I could pose for the poster. So the poster where the girl is wearing a dress, it's me. Mahesh Bhatt (who had produced and directed the original) wanted the poster to be the same as 'Aashiqui' so they requested me to pose for a picture under the jacket."

"The girl in the sari is not me, it's Shraddha. But the girl in the dress, which is there in the CDs, it's me. Mohit considers me as his lucky charm and I can never say no to him. I have been assisting him since 'Zehar', so in each film I try to contribute my bit for him."

"Aashiqui 2", however, is not a sequel to "Aashiqui". The only similarity is that both are music-based romantic films. Up for an April 26 release, the film is being co-produced by Mukesh Bhatt and Bhushan Kumar.

According to insiders Anjali never went to Mumbai but stayed in a renowned producer's guest house in Hyderabad. All this only to get back their property from their aunt and uncle.

Hyderabad, April 16: The evidence of Jannat Hussain, IAS officer and former Principal Secretary of the late Chief Minister Dr. Y S Rajasekhara Reddy is going to be key in the disproportionate assets case against Y S Jaganmohan Reddy.

It is learnt that the CBI mentioned the names of Sureedu, the former personal assistant of YSR and Jannath Hussain as key witnesses.

It is learnt that Jannath Hussain has stated to the CBI that Y S Jaganmohan Reddy, KVP Ramachandra Rao and Vijaya Sai Reddy used to participate in the official meetings held by YSR. It was also reported that Jagan and his assistant Sunil Reddy used to enter the Chief Minister’s camp office through the backdoor, avoiding the front, where always TV crew stand, recording the movements of leaders going in and coming out.

It is being said that Jannat Hussain and Sureedu stated that Nimmagadda Prasad, Penna Pratap Reddy, Srinivasa Reddy, Ramki owner Ayodhya Rami Reddy, Parthasarathy Reddy, Sajjala Diwakar Reddy and Sajjala Rama Krishna Reddy also used to meet Dr. Y S Rajasekhara Reddy through the back door. This evidence would turn against Jagan as he has been claiming all along that he never went to the camp office and never intervened in the official matters.

It is also reported that Sureedu gave a statement before the CBI about how KVP played a key role in all the transactions. Sureedu reportedly said that any VIP wanting to meet YSR was routed only through KVP and even when someone bypassed him and went straight to YSR, he used to be sent back to KVP.

Convicted for five years for his role in the 1993 Mumbai serial blasts case, Sanjay Dutt is not going to give up so easily. While he is to surrender in court on April 18th, it looks like arrangements are made for his quick return rather spending 3.5 years there.

In an emotional outburst during an earlier press meet, the actor clarified that he is not going to file any review-petition or mercy petition to shorten the punishment awarded by Supreme Court to him. However all that talk is not holding true as Sanjay Dutt is getting ready to file a review petition very soon such that his sentence will be shortened. Sources say that Sanjay's lawyers have finally found some loop holes in the case that can bail him out. As he is acquitted under TADA charges earlier and only punished with Arms Act, he is now going to ask that the punishment should also go much softer.

Legal experts however say that it takes an year for Supreme Court to entertain and give decision on Sanjay's petition in  the minimum. So the modern Sher Khan may not escape at least some time in Lord Krishna's birth place.

nding the wait over his reaction regarding the flexi banner row, Jr NTR has finally opened mouth to clear the air. Without extending much Q&A regarding the issue, he simply finished it in a long sentence which directly slapped all opponents in the face.

While interacting with media during the Success Meet of 'Baadshah', Jr NTR stated as follows:

'I'm very happy now for Baadshah becoming a big hit. Don't distance me from happiness by dragging me into unnecessary controversies. I always say this and saying now that only NTR's blood flows through my body. By serving my parents and remembering my grandfather for the stature he has given, I'll be with the party established by him', said Jr NTR.

Looks like, things are very clear for his detractors after these comments by NTR. People who are using his photos for the cut-outs of other political parties should realize at least now. 'With Jr NTR stating that he will be with TDP forever, oppositions should shut mouths at least now', says a TDP leader.

Hyderabad, April 8: Home minister Sabita Indra Reddy who is named accused in the Jagan assets case, met the Chief Minister Kiran Kumar Reddy soon after he came back from Delhi, where he attended the Chief Ministers and Chief Justices conference.

It is learnt that she discussed about her predicament with Kiran Kumar Reddy. It is not yet clear if she would resign like Dharmana and leave the matter to the Chief Minister or wait for some more time before quitting the cabinet. It may be recalled that after the Chief Minister rejected the resignation of Dharmana CBI could not arrest him. He is attending the court whenever called, in his capacity as a minister. It should be seen if Sabita also would be permitted the same privilege.

Sabita wanted to resign

Soon after knowing about CBI charge-sheet, PCC president Botsa Satyanarayana and finance minister Anam Rama Narayana Reddy went to Sabita’s house and discussed about the case.

Speaking to the media later, Botsa said Sabita wanted to resign, as she felt it was not proper for her to continue in office after she was named. He said every one including the Chief Minister had asked her to wait until all the issues concerned were carefully discussed and legal opinion obtained.

Warangal, April 8: Nandamuri Hari Krishna, TDP politburo member strongly supported his son in the flexi banner controversy. He also said there was nothing wrong in any one (YSR Congress) using the picture of his late father NT Rama Rao as he belonged to all the people. 

Talking to the media here on Monday, he gave a strong warning to Bala Krishna for threatening to take stern action against his son Jr. NTR in the flexi banner controversy. He said he did not know whether to be angry or sad at the threat of Bala Krishna. He said Jr. NTR had already given clarification that he had nothing to do with the action of some people, and argued that there was no need for clarifying it again and again. He said he only felt sad at the warning to his son. He also indirectly warned Balayya to control his tongue. He said it was improper to talk whatever one liked. He said Jr. NTR grew up in age and stature and earned millions of fans. He also got married recently and needed due respect.

Stating that in a democracy, everything should be settled before the people, he said he was ready to talk about it in 'Bazaar', with Congress, TDP or YSR Congress, if they were ready to answer his questions. Without mentioning the name of Balayya, he said one should not talk as he liked, while referring to the threat of action by the TDP against his son.

It may be recalled that Balayya warned Jr. NTR that he would have to face serious consequences if he did not condemn use of his pictures on the hoardings of the YSR Congress.

On the criticism of TDP leaders about the use of his father late N T Rama Rao's pictures by the YSR Congress, Hari Krishna said the late actor and leader was like God to his fans and argued that anyone could use his pictures. "A fan uses his picture. Can we displease him? When Maya Bazaar was released, every house had the picture of NTR. People worshipped him like God. How can we say no to it? If someone does something, should our family be victimized?" he questioned.

Referring to the charge that use of NTR's picture was political debauchery, Hari Krishna questioned how can it be called that. Stating that he would not like to mention the name of the person who called it political debauchery, he said there was nothing wrong with use of the pictures of NTR. He said there was not a human like NTR before him are after him. As such he belonged to all and every one had the right to use his picture. He said it was the need of the hour that they all tried to save the party founded by late NTR.

Hyderabad, April 3: There appears to be tiff between the TRS chief K Chandrasekhara Rao and his party MP Vijaya Shanti over the Medak seat. 

KCR who was elected to Lok Sabha from the Mahabubnagar is unsure of getting good majority there in the next elections. Though he or any other TRS leader had any doubt over his victory there, they doubt if he would get impressive majority. KCR has been thinking of shifting to Medak, as he fears that if he doesn’t get impressive majority, opponents of Telangana would argue that the Telangana sentiment had died down. 

But Congress and TDP leaders are stating that KCR would be defeated if he contests from Mahabubnagar as he badly neglected the constituency. KCR rarely visited Mahabubnagar and had not attended to any of the people’s problems, they say. If he contests from there he would be surely defeated, Congress and TDP leaders are contending.

It is a fact that KCR has been looking for a safe constituency and eyed on Vijaya Shanti’s Medak. It is learnt that retired IAS officer K V Ramanachari is trying to join TRS and has asked for Medak seat. It is in this context that KCR requested Vijaya Shanti to shift to some other constituency and tried to convince her that it would be easy for her to get elected from anywhere, because of her charisma. Still, Vijaya Shanti reportedly refused to budge. 

She told her close confidents that she would not leave the Medak seat either for KCR or Ramanachary. “Why should I leave my seat for IAS or IPS officers who enjoy power and join the party just before elections? I will not leave it even for KCR” she is reported to have told her confidents. 

She also reportedly opposed the candidature of Ramanachary stating that the IAS and IPS officers were part of the government that oppressed the Telangana people and hence should not be encouraged. She also reportedly opposed to industrialists or realtors being given tickets, branding them as oppressors and exploiters of Telangana people. She stoutly told KCR that she would not budge for anyone as she has been toiling for Telangana sacrificing her film career and a comfortable life. 

On KCR contesting from Medak, she reportedly said that during last elections it was discussed in the party and senior leaders had decided that KCR should contest from Mahabubnagar and she from Medak. This time also it would be discussed in the party, she reportedly told her colleagues.

Hyderabad, April 2: The statement of Congress senior leader and Rajya Sabha member Palvai Govardhan Reddy that there was no danger to the Congress government in the state even if 20 more MLAs left the party and joined the YSR Congress, as the TDP chief Chandra Babu Naidu would protect, stunned every one.This has been exactly the charge of the YSR Congress all along and the senior Congress leader admitting it surprised many including even the YSRCP leaders. There have been doubts that Naidu deliberately made his party maintain neutrality during the recent no-confidence vote and saved the government. TRS and YSRCP leaders had already charged the TDP chief of protecting the government in return for relief from probe into charges against him. It was even said earlier that Naidu met Chidambaram on a night in Delhi and buying truce from the CBI probe into his assets. But Govardhan Reddy saying it, astonished every one.  Govardhan Reddy said many more MLAs of the party were going to leave the party and join the Jagan bandwagon. He said some ministers were also readying to join the Jagan bandwagon and even Congress President Sonia Gandhi knew about it. He said still the government would not fall. There is a hot debate in the political circles on why such a senior leader made such an off the cuff remark. Even if there was some secret understanding between the Congress and TDP, how could he openly state it, Congress leaders are privately discussing. Meanwhile, the YSR Congress leaders were enthused by the statement of the RS member. Party leaders who sat with Vijayamma in the fast camp in the New MLA quarters told her about the statement of Govardhan Reddy and the YSRCP leaders were seen discussing about it. As the statement came handy, YSRCP leaders are likely to make a campaign about it from tomorrow onwards.Palvai said they had information that some ministers also would be joining the Jagan bandwagon. It is already being reported that the jailed former minister Mopidevi Venkata Ramana had already decided to join the YSR Congress. He is likely to join the party as soon as he gets bail. It is also learnt that Jagan had also cleared Mopidevi’s entry and even assured ticket to him in the 2014 elections.
