The hot topic in Tollywood currently is the love affair of Samantha with a star hero. After she publicly agreed that she is not single, everyone was discussing that one topic as to who is that lucky guy.
Even today, when hero Nithin was talking to the media about his upcoming film with Samantha, the same question was asked to him. Quite sportively, Nithin said please do not drag me into all this and ask Samantha directly about it said the young hero.
Sparks were flying all over and with Samantha acting opposite Nithin all these questions were posed to Nithin as well and the star hero quite cleverly dodged these questions and changed the topic.
Samantha has been in a relationship from quite some time now and the entire media is a buzz with this news. Everyone is trying to get an answer about this gossip and time and again, she has been evading it and cleared that one day the secret will be out in the open. -

Superstar Mahesh Babu likes to spend time with his family whenever he gets free time. In fact, he will go to vacations, before starting shooting for his new flicks. The actor whose last outing Brahmotsavam is turning out to be a commercial failure has left UK to spend holidays along with family- wife Namrata Shirodkar, son Gautam and daughter Sitara.
A leading daily reported that, before leaving to vacation, Mahesh Babu requested his fans not to blame director Srikanth Addala for Brahmotsavam flop and elucidated them it was his choice of locking the director and script. As per the same report, Mahesh has informed his fans that, doing Brahmotsavam was his error of judgment. Mahesh Babu will come back to city on June 16th.
As we all know, Mahesh Babu will next be working with ace director AR Murugadoss for a high budget action entertainer. The yet to be titled movie will start rolling later in June or early in July, after Mahesh coming back to Hyderabad. The director has already prepared full script for the movie which will be produced jointly by NV Prasad and Tagore Madhu.
The film will have space for only one heroine. The makers confirmed Parineeti Chopra for the female lead. Nobody has been finalized yet. Music director Harris Jayraj has already begun his work of rendering songs. -

Amidst reports that all is not well between TDP and BJP, and the parties would be heading for a break-up, BJP National President Amit Shah has tried to clarify it. Clearing the air in a media interaction, Amit on Friday said that the talks with TDP are going on and the issues with its partner would be resolved shortly.
This is not all. Amit also hinted that they'd be discussing with TDP before naming its Rajya Sabha candidate from the state as part of the coalition rule. Amit also made it clear that the existing state president of BJP for AP, Kamabhampati Hari Babu will be replaced as his tenure was ended recently.
Amit Shah, considered as close-aide of PM Narendra Modi, reiterated that BJP is committed for the growth of the successor state of Andhra Pradesh. "We'll be looking into all the issues the new state is facing. New president for the state unit (AP) will be announced in a week." -

Young hero Sundeep Kishan desperately needs a solid hit to prove himself as a bankable star. The actor's last few films were box-office turkeys and he is pinning all his hopes on his upcoming flick, Okka Ammayi Thappa.
Okka Ammayi Thappa is slated to release on June 10. The film's trailer received a good applause, though many said that the film's basic plot had some inspirations from the Hollywood hit thriller, Phone Booth.
The entire story of OAT takes place on the Hi-tech City Flyover. The film has been directed by popular dialogue writer Rajasimha. Lucky mascot Nitya Menen romances Sundeep in this romantic thriller produced by Anjireddy.
However, OAT will have a stiff competition from Trivikram's A..Aa, which is releasing on June 2. On the other hand, Nani's Gentleman will also impact OAT's box-office performance to an extent. We will have to wait and see if Sundeep manages to survive this sandwich competition in June. -

Chief Ministers are usually busy people tackling important and major problems in the state and very rarely do petty issues catch their attention. Even then, most CMs instruct their officers to handle those minor matters. But, AP CM Chandrababu Naidu is a class apart.
Since this morning, Chandrababu has been busy with TDP's Mahanadu, which is going on in Tirupati. All the cottages, guesthouses and even private hotels in the town have been occupied by the TDP leaders and cadres, who came to attend the event from across the two Telugu states.
Due to this heavy traffic, devotees who are visiting Lord Venkateshwara have been facing severe problems with shortage of accommodation in this scorching summer heat. When someone tipped Chandrababu about devotees' hardships, Babu was quick to respond.
During his speech, Babu instructed his party men not to occupy all the rooms in the TTD premises and in the town and leave some for the devotees. Babu requested his yellow army to share rooms among themselves as they attend the Mahanadu meetings from morning to evening and may not need the rooms during the day time. -

Gearing thing back, Vishal is now doing his best to stay afloat and promote himself in Telugu. The way he has promoted his latest film Rayudu reveals so much about his intention. Media circles are of the opinion that Vishal wants to get back in the reckoning and make the most of his career.
Vishal's career took a new turn after he won the Nadigar Sangam elections. Rayudu's Tamil release is his biggest hit till date in Tamil and he wants the most of it to rub off on the Telugu audiences. In the process, Vishal has released the film in close to 500 screens and has brought the entire star cast to promote the film here.
With this, it clearly proves that Vishal is leaving nothing out and wants to get back in the game. -
Show bizz is quite a hard place to survive. The craze for fame, money and the urge to be on the top of the game makes you do all sorts of negative things and heroines are mostly soft targets on such occasions.
But this one news which has become a hot topic of discussion is about an ex beauty queen who has now got into prostitution and is running a sex racket. The so called lady in discussion is an ex beauty queen who has acted with the top stars of Hindi films in the past. The so called bollywood actress was forced into this business because of lack of offers.
Several stunning revelations have been made about her without mentioning her name that she is into these sex racketing from quite some time now. The way she manages high five clients and does her business outside of India has become the talking point all over.
When we read stories like these and say what a bad world of movies, Bollywood has become, we can't but help feel bad for them for getting into such stuff. We leave it at your own guesses as to who this star actress is. -

Close on the heels of losing over Rs 100 Crore in film production, producer PVP has decided to shut his production office in Chennai. After facing acute losses, the producer of Balupu, Kshanam come to conclusion to close the operations in Tamil Nadu. What's more?
Employees of PVP Cinema based in Chennai have been informed about the development and asked them to look out for alternatives. Though PVP Cinema might not completely quit films, he would become more choosy and would be very conscious from now onwards.
Except Kshanam, none of his recent films have fared well at the ticket windows. Even Nag-Karthi starrer Oopiri which had opened to good reviews, ended up in losses. While the film tanked in Tamil, the film was an average grosser in Telugu. The film's high-budget was damper for the film. Presently, Mr Potluri is producing Rana-Taapsee starrer Ghazi which is touted to be India's first sub-marine based war film in Hindi.
The news of PVP to cut down the films isn't going well with many movie buffs. Definitely, not a welcome sign. -

Actor Sharwanand is arguably one of the best actors among young heroes in the Telugu industry. While initially he struggled to score commercial hits although his roles were appreciated by many critics. However, Sharwa managed to break the jinx and his last three films have done well at the marquee. While Run Raja Run, Express Raja were hits, Malli Malli Idi Rani Roju was an average grosser at ticket windows yet lapped up by critics.
Sharwa's last film Express Raja was released on the eve of Sankranthi. And now we're almost into June. Still, the Prasthanam star hasn't started his new movie yet. While film nagar is buzz that Sharwa would be teaming up with debutante director and BVSN Prasad would be producing the film, there's no official statement on when the film would go onto floors.
At a time when many of the flop heroes are starting their films one after the other, Sharwa is seems to be a bit slow. Well, looks like Sharwa has become more choosy. It's definitely needed after 3 hits and one has to appreciate Sharwa for it, but too much gap is also not good. -

Bollywood has seen some of the finest biopics in Indian Cinema. While many had come in the past, and more (Neerja, Azhar, Sarabjit) have come in the recent times and many more (Dangal, Dhoni, Sachin, Kishore Kumar, Sanjay Dutt, Rani Laxmi Bai and etc ) are yet to come, Tollywood is now slowly adapting to the trend.
The latest we hear is that a biopic on legendary actress Savitri would be filmed soon. The life of yesteryear heroine Savitri, who earned the sobriquet of Mahanati, will be chronicled by young filmmaker Nag Ashwin who made a decent debut with Yevade Subramanyam.
Born on January 4, 1936, Savitri made her acting debut in 1950 Telugu-Tamil drama Samarasam, and went on to star in several classics such as Devadasu, Missamma, Penin Perumai, Pasa Malar, Bhale Ramudu, 'Thodi Kodallu, Mayabazaar and Gundamma Katha. Besides donning the greasepaint, Savitri also directed a few films such as Chinnari Papalu, Chiranjeevi and Mathru Devatha. She was even a popular playback singer. Subsequently, her personal life saw lows and pushed her into depression.
It's learnt that the movie wouldn't touch the dark side of her life and would focus more on the happier times of her and her contribution to cinema. There's no clue on who's going to play the protagonist. The yet-to-be-titled film will be made simultaneously in Telugu and Tamil. The film could be called as a tribute to first lady superstar of Telugu Cinema. -

One of the major drawbacks, Telugu Film Industry facing right now, is the ‘directionless’ directors. Poor planning, lack of bound-scripts, done-to-death stories, forced parodies, banking on fight-song-comedy formula, no command on the subject, unable to come up with new ideas, failing to gauge perfect run-time for given story, too many cliches, deja vus, predictable climaxes, wastage of content (which would go under scissors at editing table) pushing producers to rethink thrice before taking up a project. In addition to all the above, several personal obligations they have in choosing cast, crew and their remunerations, though unnecessary many of the times, stays at star hotels, pre-production bills spiking high like never-before.
From average films to flops to duds, T-town witnessed several projects that didn’t work at all. While few were failed for many factors (competition, timing of release, weather, prevailing conditions etc) , many others were out-rightly rejected by the audiences. Yet Telugu filmmakers are very slow learners that they hardly learn from their mistakes. By the time they’re willing to correct themselves and open their eyes, the major damage would be done.
Sample Srikanth Addala. The director’s last film with Mahesh Babu and Venkatesh got over-budget and reports had it that the film’s run-time too was too lengthy to take it. Producer Dil Raju had to step in then and remove the total portions of Brahmanandam from the film to save the film. Had Srikanth learnt to come out with bound script with plan to use best out of the total cast, the fate of Brahmotsavam would had been very different.
Sreenu Vaitla too no different. Even after failure of Aagadu, Vaitla came up with mediocre movie Bruce Lee. The film tanked at the BO and distributors lost big monies. No doubt, Vaitla had delivered many good films in the past, but what’s missing now is full attention and profound thought into script.
loading...
Though Sukumar is slightly better. Yet time and again he’s making ‘Cost-failure’ projects. Post One-Nenokkadine’s failure, Sukumar did Nannaku Prematho which again increased cost of production. Though Nannaku Prematho received decent revenue and good talk, the profits weren’t much due to high production cost.
Vamshi Paidipally‘s Oopiri might have received good reviews all over. But the reality is that the film hasn’t made money as publicized. One of the major stumbling blocks for the film was its high-budget. Made with Rs 60 Crore, the multi-starrer film ended up in losses. Even positive word-of-the-mouth, rave reviews, high publicity didn’t help much.
Surender Reddy‘s Kick 2 was highly criticized as it had no resemblances to its original Kick. While Kick was a laugh riot, its sequel saw audiences crying foul.
VV Vinayak too shocked one and all with his dud Akhil. Touted to be debut of a star kid, the movie tanked without a trace and burned pockets of buyers. Even Vinayak’s Alludu Seenu was again a cost-failure project.
Pawan Kalyan‘s Sardaar Gabbar Singh is yet another shocker to the industry. The movie directed by Bobby with Pawan Kalyan’s supervision, story and screenplay, bitten the dust. Although it had record openings, the film didn’t sustain at the marquee due to its poor talk.
Even sensible director like Krish Jagarlamudi got it wrong while making war-film Kanche. Over-budget was one of the dampeners for this film besides others.
Sriwass‘ Dictator, Bheemineni Srinivas’ Speedunnodu, Dasaradh’s Shourya, Madan’s Garam, Ramesh Varma’s Abbayitho Ammayi all have bombed as audience rejected the films out-rightly.
Sadly, even many of the star heroes are trusting on these ‘directionless’ directors which is resulting in mediocre movies. It’s a wake-up call for directors, stars, producers and distributors.

The relationship between Nayanatara and Tamil director Vignesh is still a mystery. There are reports that she got married to him secretly but they are living separately for the sake of her career. There are also news that both of them were in love but broke up recently.
While the media and industry observers are speculating about her relationship status new rumors have floated around that she is turning producer. The rumors said she will be producing Vignesh's new movie.
But Nayanatara's PR team have denied them. "She is not interested in any wing of film making other than acting, leave alone producing movies," her PR team sent a message.
Nayanatara has her hands full with movies in Tamil and Telugu with "Babu Bangaram" and Karthi's "Kashmora".
Protests have erupted in Parawada in Visakhapatnam district as the family of a married woman, who was killed in a road accident on Sunday, charged that it was not a case of hit-and-run, but murder.
The police had initially registered a case of hit-and-run, but are now on the lookout for the men who killed Moturu Lavanya, a mother of two.
According to the police, Lavanya (29), a resident of Vadlapudi area, had gone to Nookalamma temple at Anakapalle with her husband Appalaraju and her sister-in-law on a motorbike on Sunday. A group of men spotted the women at the temple and started teasing them. As the men were drunk, they started physically and verbally abusing the women. Appalaraju reprimanded the men, reminding them that they were in a place of worship.
When Lavanya and her family were returning home, the men followed them in a car and hit the bike. “While my sister and I fell off the bike, Lavanya who was sitting at the end of the seat fell on the bonnet of the car.
They continued driving till she fell down and came under the front wheels,” said Appalaraju, who was injured in incident. He has named one Dadi Hemanth Kumar, a financier, and his other three friends, all residents of Anakapalle, in the police complaint.

Trivikram is one of the very few directors that can make commercial films with clean entertainment that can be enjoyed by all age groups of audience.
Most of his films got clean U certificate from the Censor Board and his upcoming release A Aa too is cleared with clean U certificate.
Censor Board didn’t ask for a single cut or mute in A Aa. This is a romantic family entertainer with loads of fun and drama. Trivikram is having high hopes on A Aa.
He is expecting that this film will be as successful as Nuvvu Naaku Nachav. Of late Trivikram is making star oriented films and not giving so much importance to the script.
A Aa is a story based film that doesn’t deviate from the plot for so called action and comedy. Samantha and Nithin are playing the lead roles in this film.
Music composed by Mickey J Meyer is already a huge hit and the songs are topping the charts. A Aa is all set to release on June 2nd.
Nithin and Samantha's "A Aa" will be the last film to come to the screens this summer holidays. The film is releasing on 2nd June.
Still, the month of June is going to witness several releases. The schools reopen from June 13th. A week later, students and youth will start flocking the theaters again. This has been the trend for many years. Hence, in June Nani and Niharika Konidela are testing their luck.
Nani's "Gentleman" is slated for 17th June. He didn't want to compete with Trivikram's "A Aa". So he is maintaining a long gap between the release of "A Aa" and his movie. "Gentleman" is second release from Nani this year after "Krishna Gaadi Veera Prema Gaadha" and it has high expectations as the trailer is interesting.
On the other hand, Niharika Konidela who is debuting in "Oka Manasu" is hoping that all college students would bunk the colleges to watch her movie. Her maiden film has been locked for June 24th. "Oka Manasu" is one of the highly anticipated movies as the movie's songs and trailer have become a hit and also Niharika has great fan following on Telly.
In between these releases, Sumanth Ashwin is also planning to release his movie "Right Right". The film has failed to any buzz so far but the makers are hoping to squeeze some theatres on 10th June.
No one else has paired up with Nagarjuna more than Anushka for the past ten years. She has romanced Nagarjuna in her debut film Super and later the couple was seen together in films like Don, Ragada and Dhamarukam.
Nagarjuna calls up Anushka whenever there is a cameo appearance required from a star heroine. Recently she was seen in Soggade Chinni Nayana and Oopiri movies. Now if the buzz is to be believed we are going to see this super Jodi back on screen soon.
Anushka is reportedly being considered for the female lead role in Nagarjuna’s next film Om Namo Venkatesha directed by K. Raghavendra Rao. This film is based on the life story of Hathi Ram Baba.
Nagarjuna is already in the process of getting ready for the character. He is growing beard for this film. Meanwhile Anushka is also the frontrunner for Chiranjeevi’s comeback movie
Indian-American students have swept the prestigious national bee competitions, securing the first three positions for this year's National Geographic Bee championship finals.
Rishi Nair, 12, a sixth grader from Florida took top honours at the 28th annual National Geographic Bee held at the National Geographic headquarters here.
As National Geographic Bee champion, Rishi received a USD 50,000 college scholarship and a lifetime membership in the National Geographic Society. This is the fifth consecutive year that an Indian-American has won the prestigious national tournament.
Eighth-grader Saketh Jonnalagadda, 14, from Massachusetts was the runner up and recipient of the USD 25,000 college scholarship. Third place and a USD 10,000 college scholarship was grabbed by Kapil Nathan, a 12-year-old sixth-grader from Alabama.
The final question, which clinched the win for Rishi, was: "A new marine sanctuary will protect sharks and other wildlife around Isla Wolf in which archipelago in the Pacific Ocean?". The answer was: "Galapagos Islands".
Rishi is the second Florida student to win the National Geographic Bee. In 2010, eighth-grader Aadith Moorthy of Palm Harbor was the national champion. In fact it was a nail-biting, seven-question final round between Rishi and Saketh. Seven of the 10 finalists were Indian-Americans.
The seven other finalists, who each won USD 500, were Grace Rembert of Montana, Rishi Kumar of Maryland, Pranay Varada of Texas, Lucas Eggers of Minnesota, Samanyu Dixit of North Carolina, Thomas Wright of Wisconsin and Ashwin Sivakumar of Oregon.
Indian-American students have consistently performed exceptionally well at various bee competitions over the years.
The spelling bee competition has produced Indian-American champions for eight consecutive years, and 13 of the past 17, a run that began in 1999.

A senior Navy doctor has been accused of molesting a junior lady doctor on two occasions this month.
One of the incidents happened inside the bungalow of an Admiral who was not present in his house. The Admiral was away in Visakhapatnam on official duty when the duo from the Navy’s medical unit went to his house in central Delhi to attend to his mother.
Within days, the second incident happened inside INS India, a naval administrative establishment in the capital.
The Navy received a complaint from the victim on May 6 and a board of inquiry, headed by a Captain rank officer, was ordered on May 9. A lady officer of adequate seniority is also a member of the board, which is likely to submit its report to the naval headquarters shortly. As per the procedure of the Armed Forces, the accused has been asked to go on leave during the investigation. “The Indian Navy has zero tolerance on such matters. Once the enquiry process is completed, justice would be done,” said a Navy spokesperson.
The maritime force has earlier witnessed several allegations of molestation, adultery and wife-swapping cases. While several guilty officers and sailors were punished, the Supreme Court recently asked the Kerala Police to form a special team headed by a DIG-rank officer to complete the probe into a wife-swapping case within three months.
The allegations were made by the estranged wife of a Navy officer. The Navy currently has more than 500 women officers, almost half of them are doctors.
Besides medical and nursing, women are now allowed in the Navy in the fighting units, education, law, air traffic controllers, meteorology, naval construction, observers and logistics branches.
The incident has come to light at a time when the armed forces are opening their doors to more women.

Despite being launched a few months ago early this year, the regular shooting of Ram Charan's Dhruva is moving at a snail's pace and the reason is Megastar Chiranjeevi's most awaited 150th film.
Ram Charan, who is participating in the script discussions and other preproduction works out Chiru's 150, is unable to cater his dates for Dhruva's team.
So far, the unit has canned only a couple of minor schedules and this terrible delay has already started showing its impact. The latest buzz in Film Nagar circles is that Dhruva's Bollywood cinematographer Aseem Mishra has quit the project citing frequent delays. Aseem Mishra has now been replaced by PS Vinod, the ace lensman behind Nagarjuna's Manam and Oopiri.
Incidentally, PS Vinod's first major breakthrough in Tollywood was through Pawan's Panjaa. Even though the film bombed, Panjaa is still hailed for its breathtaking visual quality. Now that the cinematography department has been taken care of, the next schedule of Dhruva has been set to begin from June 3. -

Tamil director Atlee, who directed Raja-Rani, got a lot of recognition in Tollywood as well, as the film became a big hit in Telugu as well.
His next film “Theri” starring Vijay, was also released as “Polisodu” on a grand scale. Though this film could not recover even the publicity cost in Telugu, it had earned over Rs 100 crore in Tamil.
Interestingly, Atlee desperately wanted to make a film with Mahesh Babu in Telugu. During the release of Telugu version of Theri, he had a meeting with Mahesh.
Having heard about the track record of Atlee, Mahesh, too, gave a patient hearing to the concepts proposed by the director. There were rumours those days that Mahesh would be doing a film with Atlee.
According to the latest information, there is no positive response from Mahesh to Atlee’s proposal. Apparently, Mahesh backtracked after seeing the failure of ‘Polisodu’ and he reportedly advised Atlee to try for some other actors to do Telugu films.
Having failed to convince the Telugu superstar to a do a film with him, Atlee is said to be back in Tamil film industry eyeing Vijay once again. Since ‘Theri’ was a commercial hit in Tamil, Vijay, too, responded positively to Atlee’s requests.
Though the director is unable to appease Mahesh Babu to make a blockbuster film, he seems to have become a favourite for Vijay!
Hyderabad: There is resentment brewing among many sections of the State government employees that the Secretariat employees are being given undue preference over them, regarding the benefits for transferring to Amaravati. As a result, these employees are sulking and unwilling to move.
Whenever Naidu proposes a deadline for shifting to Amaravati, Secretariat employees refuse and make certain demands. Naidu obliges and gives a fresh deadline, they make a fresh protest and demands which are again met. This has been the story so far!
Naturally, other government employees are going green with either envy or anguish at this preferential treatment and asking for their own pound of flesh.
It would definitely require a Bhagiratha effort from Naidu to move these employees to Amaravati.
