Hyderabad, Dec 25: With just three days left for the crucial all-party meeting convened by Union Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde on Friday in a bid to resolve the contentious separate Telangana State issue, the political parties invited for discussion are busy finalizing the names of those who would represent them and also about their party’s point of view.

The BJP, which is vehemently supporting the creation of a Telangana State, would be represented at the meeting by State party president G. Kishan Reddy and senior leader Kambampati Haribabu. The CPM, which is against bifurcation of the State, has decided to depute the party’s State secretary B. V. Raghavulu and Floor leader in the Assembly Julakanti Ranga Reddy.

The Telugu Desam is expected to finalize its representatives after the politburo meeting on December 27. However, the TDP president Chandrababu Naidu, who is now in Karimnagar district as part of his “Vasthunna Meekosam” walkathon, held a meeting today with the party’s MLAs from the Telangana to apprise himself of their views and the stance to be adopted though it is well known that they are staunch separatists.

The TDP chief has also convened a meeting of the party legislators from Seemandhra region on Wednesday and continue his exercise in this regard. After having heard the views and opinions of the leaders from both the regions, a final decision about the single point view to be expressed at the all-party meeting would be decided at the politburo meeting on Thursday.

It is reliably learnt that former TDP minister Kadiam Srihari has been almost finalized as one of the representatives of the party. Another name that was also cleared was that of senior leader Yanamala Ramakrishnudu, a known integrationist. Since the party seemed to be favorably inclined for a separate Telangana State, he seemed to have decided not to take part in the all-party meeting. It is also learnt that many of the party legislators from both the regions seemed to be in favour of  Chandrababu Naidu himself representing TDP at the Delhi meeting.

As for as the ruling Congress is concerned, the party is vertically divided on the issue. While the party MPs, MLAs and MPs from the Telangana have been relentlessly espousing the cause for a Telangana State, those from the Seemandhra region are stoutly opposed to bifurcation of the State and stressing the need for status quo. Since the party leadership, both at the State and Central levels, seem to have been caught between the devil and deep sea like situation, the APCCpresident Botcha Satyanarayana himself has asserted that only after all the parties make their stance clear, the Congress would then spell out its stand.

The YSR Congress Party has been doing a balancing act in this affair so far. Without making a firm commitment on the separate statehood, the party has been cleverly asserting that it was in sync with the sentiments of the people of the region and that if the Union government decides to bifurcate the State it would not oppose it. However, according to reliable sources, the party would be represented at the all-party meeting by M.V. Mysoora Reddy and Konathala Ramakrishna.

The TRS, which has been spearheading the agitation for a separate State for the past 11 years is likely to be represented by party chief K. Chandrasekhara Rao. Though it was earlier decided that TJAC Chairman Prof. Kodandaram would also represent on behalf of TRS, there seems to have been some opposition to it and hence he may not attend the meet. However, a clear-cut picture on who would represent the TRS would be known in a day or two.

The MIM party’s Lok Sabha member from Hyderabad Asaduddin Owaisi would attend the meeting on behalf of the party. It might be mentioned here that the MIM has been insisting that if a Telangana State was inevitable, then Hyderabad should be made a Union Territory. Another option made by the party was for creating a Rayala Telangana with Hyderabad as its capital. Thus, the status of Hyderabad is bound to become a contentious issue in resolving the Telangana affair.

It might be mentioned here that the Ministry of Home Affairs had made it clear that each of the eight political parties invited for the December 28 meeting could send two representatives. Though the need for expressing only one view at the meeting was being emphasized by all the political parties, the possibility of a unanimity on the issue might encounter some rough weather. Thus the much expected solution to the Telangana issue might turn out to be only a mirage!

New Delhi, Dec 25: Congress president Sonia Gandhi has reportedly expressed anger at the remarks of the PCC chief Botsa Satyanarayana on the Delhi gang rape.

According to sources, she has asked her adviser Ahmed Patel to obtain an explanation from Botsa on the remarks. It is learnt that Botsa has given a letter explaining his comments and his later statement condemning media reports to the AICC general secretary and state party in-charge Ghulam Nabi Azad.

It was reported that Botsa has faulted the girl for moving about at midnight. He has reportedly said that we cannot move about during midnight simply because we got freedom at midnight. He is reported to have described the rape as a minor incident and praised Sonia Gandhi for talking to student leaders though it was a small incident.

Stunned by the anger of women organizations and opposition parties, Botsa alleged that he was misquoted. He said he only said that the government should provide security for women to move about freely even at midnight. He has also apologized.

Hyderabad, Dec 25: Cyberabad police have arrested a youth from Nepal for raping a five-year-old girl, the daughter of his neighbour and fellow Nepali, at Madhapur, the information technology district.

The 21-year-old accused was arrested after the father of the victim lodged a complaint with Madhapur police station under Cyberabad police commissionerate.

Both the accused and the victim are from Nepal and working here. Dhanu Shree, a cook in a restaurant, sexually assaulted the daughter of his neighbour Padam Bahadur, who was working as a security guard at Raheja IT Park.

Though the incident took place on Dec 22 in Pathrika Nagar, it came to light on Monday. The police Tuesday announced the arrest of the accused. He was produced before a court, which sent him to judicial custody.

The accused was arrested from Secunderabad police station late Monday night when he was trying to escape from the city.

According to police, the girl was playing near her house on the evening of Dec 22 when the accused took her to a nearby place and raped her.

When her parents returned home, they found her crying. After they lodged a complaint, police sent the girl to Gandhi Hospital for medical examination and launched a manhunt for the accused.

Alike Mega camp heroes who were sharing the heroines whom they find comfortable to work, Manchus too were following the same formula. 

Hansika who shared screen space with Vishnu in Denikaina Ready has been roped into play the female lead in Manoj's upcoming film to be directed by Nageswara Reddy of Seema Sastry and DNR fame. The chemistry between the lead pair worked out well in Denikaina Ready and so Manchus feel this bubbly beauty is their lucky mascot. Despite being so busy with her multiple Tamil projects, Hansika adjusted her dates for Manoj's film and the shooting begins early next year.  

Seems like the successive flops have changed the mindset of Manoj as the young actor decided to take a break from out-of-the-box and experimental films for now and focus on formula based commercial entertainers to get that much-needed success. He is finally doing a full fledged comedy flick and this project is said to be a laugh riot right from start to end. Let's see how much he succeeds in this attempt!

Mumaith Khan was one the toast of Tollywood after resounding success of her special number with Prince Mahesh Babu in 'Pokiri'. The song 'Ippatikinka Na vayasu' is still played in all parties but Mumaith faded into oblivion once craze for her died down.

They include  Ali, Krishna Bhagwan,MS Narayana,Kavitha and others. Prem Rakshit is choreographing movements for the song

Cutie Taapsee Pannu is ending up like Shriya if we have to go by the happenings in her career. While critics are saying this way, her fans have something to counter that.

Shriya rose to peaks during a time and ruled the roost as a top-starlet in Tollywood. Though Taapsee is not able to get there, she is always busy with big movies and big stars. Right now, Taapsee is heading to shake her leg with Lawrence for the upcoming 'Muni 3'. But people are equating this to Shriya's pairing with Tamil comedian Vadivelu in a flick long time back. After acting in that movie, our sexy siren was forced to pack her bags. Cine observers are saying that tinsel towns love to see gorgeous beauties pairing with handsome guys, which otherwise they will be strapped of opportunities.

But Taapsee's fans are not accepting this as they say that it is the individual talent of an actress that will fetch them but not hero's handsomeness. 'We have seen many heroines who sizzled with dark heroes like Rajnikanth and Vishal, before becoming top starlets', said a fan.

Money plays a significant role in each one's life and actors are no different. Ask Tamanna, to know how an extra few bucks could show it's effect on decision making.Tamanna wasn't seen in any of the Tamil films in the recent past and the only project she signed after a gap of two years was that of Ajith's film to be directed by Shiva (Souryam, Daruvu fame). The makers seems to have done a lot of ground work to lure the actress back to Kollywood. A whopping amount of Rs 1.5 crore which is much higher than the pay package she normally charges was offered to Tammu and the beauty signed the film immediately.With this new assignment, Tammu bagged the title of highest paid actress down South. However, the sources close to the actress defend her by saying she has been paid what she deserves.Tamanna got mixed results in Tollywood with films like 100 Percent Love & Cameraman Gangatho Rambabu turning into profit grossers, and much-hyped flicks Badrinath, Oosaravelli, Endukante Premanta and Rebel bombing at the Box Office. Let's see how her comeback films in Bollywood (Himmatwala) and Kollywood (Ajith's film) will end!

New Delhi, Dec 21:The rage spread, rapidly and steadily, through India's national capital Friday as students, activists and just concerned citizens gathered at various places in the city to protest the torture and gang-rape of a young woman, now battling to stay alive in a Delhi hospital.

As the protests literally reached President Pranab Mukherjee's doorstep, with angry demonstrators going right up till the gates of Rashtrapati Bhavan and one even managing to enter the complex, Delhi Police finally nabbed the two men who were at large.

As the evening set in, hundreds reached 10 Janpath, Congress chief Sonia Gandhi's offficial residence, and held candle march and noisy protests. Police erected barricades and stopped anyone from entering her heavily fortified residence.

The parliamentary standing committee on home affairs, on its part, summoned union Home Secretary R.K. Singh and Delhi Police Commissioner Neeraj Kumar Dec 27 to discuss atrocities against women and the law and order situation in the national capital.

R.K. Singh and Neeraj Kumar later held a press conference and said they will be seeking "maximum punishment" for the accused persons. They said they will seek fast-track and day-to-day trial in the case that has shocked the nation.

But the Delhi High Court said it is not "convinced" with the status report filed by the Delhi Police which did not mention the details of police officials patrolling the area where the woman was gang-raped and tortured in a moving bus.

Faced with the growing outrage, with protests not just in New Delhi but also elsewhere in the country, Delhi Police arrested two more accused, including one who has claimed that he is a juvenile. The sixth man identified as Akshay Thakur has been arrested from Aurangabad in Bihar.

In scenes unprecedented in the city, multiple protests broke out - at India Gate, Rajpath, Rashtrapati Bhavan, Jantar Mantar and 10 Janpath in the heart of Lutyens Delhi as well as outside Safdarjung Hospital, where the 23-year-old victim of the savage gang-rape fought a valiant battle against her injuries but continued to stay critical.

Rarely, if ever, have so many people taken to the streets in so many different places for a single cause. It was an unstoppable momentum.

Demanding justice and fast track courts, many people have rallied in protest in the capital in the five days since the incident Sunday night, when the physiotherapist intern was brutally assaulted and her male friend beaten in a moving bus. Both were stripped and dumped by the roadside near the domestic airport after the nearly 40-minute ordeal.

The residence of Delhi Chief Minister Shiela Dikshit and the police headquarters have all witnessed the spontaneous outpouring of anger.

"About 250 protestors thronged the high-security zone of Rastrapati Bhavan. We had to divert them back to India Gate," a senior police official told IANS after forces tried in vain to control the surging demonstrators.

Swati, a student at the YWCA, managed to slip past the gates of Rashtrapati Bhavan, before she was pushed back.

"They do nothing to protect us, and when we want justice, they say we need permission to enter the president's house. Such a heinous crime has occurred, and they expect us to seek permission to protest," Swati said.

As people hit the streets of Delhi to vent their grief and anger, the Sir Ganga Ram Hospital in central Delhi offered the victim free intestinal transplant.

Doctors treating the woman said their focus was on providing her the best treatment as her life was at grave risk. She underwent surgery to remove a gangrenous section of intestine, and there was risk of infection.

"These are early signs of sepsis," B.D. Athani, medical superintendent of Safdarjung Hospital, told reporters here. Sepsis is a potentially deadly medical condition characterised by a whole-body inflammatory state caused by severe infection.

"The next three to four days are very crucial," he added.

The woman, who had been on a ventilator since Sunday night, is now able to breathe "comfortably" without it for several hours.

The young woman and her uncertain future were focal points for the entire nation, even for a group of Muslim clerics in Mumbai who said rape could only be stemmed through a change in the present "capitalistic, patriarchal" social system.

Demanding justice for the girl, the clerics said in a statement: "The Delhi gang-rape is a horrifying and spine chilling incident."

Starring Salman Khan, Salman Khan, Salman Khan, Salman Khan; Directed by Arbaaz Khan

For those who thought Chulbul Pandey in Abinav Kashyap's "Dabangg" was wacky and fun only because Salman Khan played him, here is more spoof-proof in the sequel of how Salman adopts, embraces and assimilates the characters he plays until one can't tell the star apart from the character.

This is not to say Salman is a method actor. God forbid! He's just the opposite. Chulbul Pandey, if ever such a khaki-clad law-enforcer ever, would want to be as chirpy and obnoxious as Chulbul Pandey.

So what does Chulbul do in "Dabangg 2" that he didn't do in "Dabangg"? Nothing, and everything. There's more of everything in the sequel and hence a sense of deja vu. 

The fights which begin, end and bolster the plot, are done with that irrepressible mix of guffaws and grunts that Salman patented in Prabhu Deva's "Wanted". Indeed it wouldn't be wrong to say that Prabhu Deva was the father of Chulbul Pandey, in a manner of speaking.

Here of course in "Dabangg 2" Vinod Khanna is back as Chulbul's father. The scenes between Salman and his screen-dad are written with a delicious mix of irreverence and affection. There is a hilarious encounter on the rooftop of their Kanpur home where son asks his sleepy, annoyed father about the deceased mother (Dimple Kapadia, a mere photo on the wall in the sequel).

And then Salman leaves in a huff saying, "Mom was right. You're no fun to sleep with. I am better off sleeping with my wife."

Ahem. Save the blushes for a rainy day. Salman's Chulbul gives us no time get bothered with niceties. Chulbul simply sweeps us along into a tidal wave of wackily written and executed action sequences undercut by a sharp sense of self-deprecating humour. 

The storytelling is breathless. The characters can't really keep pace with the breakneck storytelling. They are underveloped and largely kept in the shadows to accentuate the hero's larger-than-life (though blessedly never larger-than-laughs) persona.

Sonakshi Sinha, of course, enjoys playing the seductress in the shadows. In film after film, she plays the dutiful beloved soul-mate to the macho-hero. And really, her sartorial styling and the designer sarees and backless blouses in a film that pays a lot of attention to mofussil modes is way-way-way over the top. It's hard to see her expressions beyond the eyeshadows.

That reminds me...Sonakshi shares the shadows with Arbaaz Khan who as Chulbul Pandey's brother is delightful daft and goofy.

The villains have a coherent voice (never mind their livid screaming) and more space to develop as characters. The plot goes into spasms of explanation as to why one of the villains Niktin Dheer needed to take off his shirt in the climax .Really, Salman's shirtless act needs no accompaniment.

Prakash Raj does his usual snarling sneering arch-villain act, no surprises here. Deepak Dobriyal who gets to die in a rather gruesome way in the irate Chulbul's hands, is sharp and cutting in his brief role. Some of Salman's subordinates in the police station are also engaging.

But make no mistake. This film belongs to Chulbul alias Salman from the first frame to the last. Salman goes through the motions without any punctuation except a string of exclamations. While the other characters remain dutifully tenuous, Chulbul's comic-book valour is highlighted unapologetically.

"Dabangg 2" takes off effortlessly from the first frame creating a wackier, wilder, wittier saga than "Dabangg" woven around Chulbul Pandey's agile, anarchic antics. 

Though the plot is written in half-hearted measures leaving many episodes including the climax looking incomplete, the film is loads of lowbrow fun with some peppy songs by Sajid-Wajid which are filmed with an earthy gusto. Aseem Mishra's camera looks at life in "Kanpur" through wide-eyed lenses that stare unabashedly at the characters's quirks.

And now for the ek crore ka sawaal. Does Kareena Kapoor's item song "Fevicol" match up to Malaika Arora's "Munni badnaam" in the first "Dabangg"?

Redundant question. It's like asking, does "Dabangg 2" measure up to "Dabangg"?

Banner: Three Angels Studio Pvt. Ltd.

Producer: Priyanka Dutt

Director: Parasuram

Music: Devi Sri Prasad

Casting: Ravi Teja, Kajal Agarwal, Richa Gangopadhyay, Nara Rohith and Others

Rating: 2.0/5.0

Story

Sandhya (Kajal) meets Kartik (Raviteja) and instantly fall in love with him at first sight during her studies in Italy. She tries to impress him but finds him a hard nut to crack on her way to India. However to her shock she comes to know that he is already married and decides to marry her relative Gautam (Nara Rohit). What twists happen in Sandhya's love life has to be enjoyed on silver screen.

Performance

Ravi Teja came up with a credible performance and though he played a subdued role controlling his mass action, he emoted well in climax and crucial scenes. However masses may not put up with his role as even in dances there are no mass moves for which he is popular for. However his comedy timing and action makes the day. Kajal gave stellar performance and stole the show from all. She looked gorgeous and matched dialogue to dialogue with Ravi Teja in timing. She was really entertaining and the scenes between Ravi Teja and Kajal came out well. Richa Gangopadhyay's role has no scope for performance but she looked good and hot in songs. Nara Rohit came out with cool performance as Gautam and others like Chandra Mohan, Jayasudha, MS. Narayana did their roles to perfection.

Analysis

Director Parasuram scripted a good storyline and even included excellent twists in the plot. However lack of comedy undid the film. The film starts off at brisk pace with Kajal and Ravi Teja's chemistry taking viewers to completely different zone. However the tempo was not maintained the moment Raviteja started narrating his love track with Richa. It could have been scripted in a more interested and better manner. Except for MS. Narayana's minute appearance the film did not have any entertaining elements which is a major draw back. All in all a good story not dealt properly by the director. 

Technical

Production values are good. Devi Sri Prasad's music is good and are perfectly choreographed. Back Ground score is ok. Kotagiri Venkateswara Rao's editing could have been better in the entire film as there are many scenes that could have faced the cut. Vijay Chakravarthy's cinematography is beautiful. Director though prepared a nice story-line completely lost the plot in screenplay.

Final Talk

Mass Raja in class appearance not only alienated mass viewers but also class viewers.

Darsaka Ratna Dasari Narayana Rao has lashed out at big heroes of the Telugu film industry at a book release function here on Thursday. 

Talking at the release of the book 'Basha', he said several people who did the rounds to his house for acting chances, were not showing any respect to him after becoming big stars. He said he gave life and address to address-less persons during his career. He has lamented that such persons were now expecting him to get up when they came. He said he would soon write a book and threatened that he would write the true stories of every one in that book. 

Dasari said N T Rama Rao was the only super star in Andhra and Rajini Kant in the south and Amitabh Bachchan in the entire country. Those who joined Film Institute with his recommendation were treating him lightly now, he complained. He has claimed that he has risked even his own life, to give life to some heroes. He said he would write facts about the lives of all such people and clarified that the aim was not to hurt anyone. He has maintained that there was need for writing such books for the benefit of the future generations. He has expressed pain that some people whom he had blessed were defying him now. He said some of them grew to such level as to challenge him now. He said philosophically that it was their nature. 

There is a hot discussion in the film industry about Dasari's remarks. Some say that he was targeting union minister Chiranjeevi and his son Ram Charan Teja. Observers also say that Dasari also hit out at Akkineni Nageswara Rao, by stating that NTR was the only super star of Andhra.

Actress Esha Gupta is glad that Indian models are appreciated worldwide for their unique looks.

Gupta, the second runner-up at the 2007 Femina Miss India contest who later took to modelling before venturing into films, was attending an event in the city when she held forth on the fashion scene in the country.

"I think India has great models. From Kamal Sidhu to Lakshmi, we have beautiful models in our country," said Esha, who featured in the Kingfisher swimsuit calendar in 2010.

She said that foreigners often look at India for its beautiful models, and comment on how "earthy" and "different" they look.

"In fact, every girl is unique, whether it's a northeasterner, Punjabi or south Indian," noted Esha, who made her Bollywood debut earlier this year with Mahesh Bhatt's crime thriller "Jannat 2" opposite Emraan Hashmi and Randeep Hooda.

She also featured in Vikram Bhatt's "Raaz 3", starring with Bipasha Basu and Emraan, and Prakash Jha's "Chakravyuh", with Arjun Rampal, Abhay Deol and Manoj Bajpayee.

Actress Sonakshi Sinha, who made her big Bollywood debut opposite Salman Khan in "Dabangg", says she is thankful to the star for his constant support and constructive criticism.

"Whenever Salman criticizes me, he does it in a very positive way. Because of him only I lost so much of weight. I am an actress because of him and he is very happy about it. Whatever he says, I take it in a very positive spirit," Sonakshi told.

Sonakshi was over 80 kgs before she joined the industry, and worked hard to get into shape to get into filmdom. Recently, a lot has been commented regarding her weight issues, but she says it doesn't make a difference. 

"It doesn't affect me. I think I read about it, I see it on TV, I sit and I just laugh, because tomorrow my film will become a hit and people will shut up," Sonakshi said.

So far, Sonakshi has donned a desi look in all her films - "Dabangg", "Rowdy Rathore", "Joker" and "Son Of Sardaar". But she says in "Bullet Raja", she sports a fusion look.

"In 'Bullet Raja', my look will be a western fusion kind. It has been a coincidence that so far that my look has been Indian, but I am really not complaining because all these films have done good business and been appreciated a lot. If in future, some different look suits my character, then I will do that," she added.

The 25-year-old has got a good taste of success within two years of being in the industry, but she says nothing has changed in her personal life.

"Nothing has changed so far in my life - neither in my family nor outside. Even today if I get up late, my mom gets angry. Personally, nothing has changed and I am happy about it. After achieving success so soon, many people could get spoilt, but thanks to my friends and family, they have kept me so grounded," said the daughter of veteran actor Shatrughan Sinha.

As of now, she is busy promoting "Dabangg 2", directed by Arbaaz Khan. It will hit the screens Dec 21.

Later she has fumbled a bit and recovered with a string of commercial hits. However, Asin didn't get credit for the success of those films.

New Deldi, Dec 14: Christian evangelist and Praja Santi party founder KA Paul has appealed to the government of Norway to release the Telugu couple Chandrasekhar and Anupama who were convicted for harassing their son. He said they should be at least released for the sake of their children or sent away from that country.

Paul spoke to the media here with Bhargava, brother of Anupama. He said the children were weeping for their parents and the Norwegian government should release the couple or send them out, on humanitarian consideration.

It may be recalled that the Oslo court has convicted the couple and sentenced Chandrasekhar to 18 months in prison and Anupama to 15 months. The couple have appealed to the high court, challenging the Oslo court’s judgment.  Norwegian prosecutor Kurt Lir has charged that the couple had beaten their boy with belt and had even scalded him with heated metal. However the couple had denied doing that. Their lawyer has also told the court that they might not have behaved properly with their son, but have not tortured him. It may also be mentioned here that the Norwegian police have arrested the couple 9 months after the incident.

Chandrasekhar, an employee of the software giant TCS, has gone to Norway 18 months ago. He has then taken his wife and two sons also along with him. As it was a long stay, he has admitted his sons in a school in Oslo. It was then that their elder son Sai Sriram has complained to his teachers of the ill- treatment being meted out to him by his parents. However, before police could act, the couple came back with their children. Chandrasekhar was given another assignment and not knowing that a case was waiting for him there, this time the couple went to Oslo, leaving the children behind. Police arrested the couple during their second trip.

Banner: Teja Cinima

Producer: C Kalyan

Directer: Gautham Menon

Music: Ilaiyaraaja

Starring: Nani,Samantha, Krishnudu etc

Rating: 2.0/5.0

Story

Varun (Nani) and Nitya(Samantha) love each other deeply since their childhood and meet without knowledge of their parents. They join the same school, college etc and try to do things so that they could be together all the time. Suddenly things go differently when Varun (Nani) decides to give importance to his family and pursue MBA from IIMs. Misunderstandings crop up and from then on ego clashes and other problems get in their way. How they overcome them has to be enjoyed on silver screen.

Performance

Nani came out with nice performance reflecting various stages in his role. How ever his appearance will be disappoint movie lovers who are used to watch him in lover boy get up. His bearded look is a tad unlike Nani. Samantha looked extremely cute in the school days scenes and in sarees she looked gorgeous. Krishnudu tried to entertain viewers with his comedy along with other stars.

Analysis

Gautam Menon known for romantic stories came with another love story. This time however he came with just a narration of blossoming of love between a boy and girl and its progress with the passage of time. Love track established is not that convincing and sometimes tests the patience of movie lovers. Most of the time except for quarrels and brawls between the couple, sweet nothings are minimal. 

Technical

Anthony's editing could have been better in the first half. Ilayaraja's music is good and it captivates music lovers. BGM score is in sync with the movie's script. Prabhu's cinematography takes movie lovers to completely different zone. Production Values are of high standards. Gautam Menon should have taken care to increase the tempo of the film as it progressed at snail pace.

Final Talk

YVM's fate will be decided by family viewers as masses will find it hard to connect with the film.

I’m very happy that we realized that we are two different types of people, who can’t journey together for long. So we took the decision before a discontented family life took us far. It’s been a few months since we started living separately. Legal procedures will begin in January next year."

The BJP enforced district bandh in protest against an attack on one Hanuman Swamy and arrest of several Hanuman devotees in Nalgonda town on Tuesday. As part of bandh, BJP activists staged a rasta-roko at Yellareddiguda village adjoining Narketpally-Nalgonda road. 

Annoyed over the road blockade program, Rajiv Ratan, who was traveling on the same route to review bandh situation in the district, beat one of the activists when they obstructed the IG’s vehicle. In retaliation, the lathi-wielding activists attacked Rajiv Ratan, who was in plain clothes. As a result, the IG sustained simple injuries on his neck and hand in the attack. Alerted by the sudden attack on the IG, the police personnel stopped the agitators and escorted him from there. Ratan took treatment at the SP’s office in Nalgonda town and relaxed for a while. Later, accompanied by DIG and SP, he visited Nalgonda Old City. 

Speaking to the media after the review meeting on the situation prevailing in the district, Ratan said the situation was under control. He said the Narketpally police have registered a case against the youth who had attacked him.

Meanwhile, the district wore a deserted look due to the total bandh. Business, commercial and educational institutions and petrol bunks remained closed.

New Delhi, Dec 2: TDP leader and MP Nandamuri Hari Krishna has expressed anger at both his brothers-in-law Chandra Babu Naidu and Dr. Venkateswara Rao. He said both were dragging the image of the family to roads, over the statue of his late father N T Rama Rao. 

Stating that it was the desire of all the family members that NTR's statue should be erected in the Parliament, Hari Krishna said it was not important as to who was responsible for it. He said it was improper on the part of any one to politicize who was instrumental for it. He also felt that it was just a family matter and neither the TDP nor the sons-in-law (Naidu and Daggubati) should intervene in it. 

Hari Krishna has also said that the party's image has suffered because of three MPs abstaining from the voting on the FDIs in the Rajya Sabha. He said because of what they had done, they were unable to stand upright and show their faces to other opposition members.

Hyderabad, Dec 12: The union home ministry has invited nine political parties from Andhra Pradesh for an all-party meeting on Telangana scheduled to be held Dec 28 in New Delhi.

Ignoring the demand from some Telangana parties and leaders of Congress and Telugu Desam Party (TDP) that one representative from each party be invited, the parties have been asked to nominate two representatives each.

A ministry letter said a number of representations were made by MPs to restart the dialogue on Telangana.

The letter from K. Skandan, additional secretary in the ministry of home affairs, was received by the parties Wednesday.

Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde has clearly rejected the demand of Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Kiran Kumar Reddy to postpone the meeting in view of World Telugu Conference at Tirupati Dec 27-29.

The ministry has invited Congress, TDP, YSR Congress Party, Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS), Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Communist Party of India (CPI), Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M), Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (MIM) and Lok Satta for the meet.

TRS leader Harish Rao said it proved that the Congress was not sincere in solving the issue. TDP leader from Telangana E. Dayakar Rao termed the meet as another ploy by the Congress.

Telangana Joint Action Committee (JAC) chairman M. Kodandaram said irrespective of the number of representatives invited from each party, all parties should take a clear stand on the issue.

At the two all-party meetings convened by the centre in 2010 and 2011, the representatives from major parties were divided along regional lines.

While representatives from Telangana wanted separate statehood to the region, those from Andhra and Rayalaseema opposed bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh.

The Congress, TDP, YSR Congress party and Lok Satta have not yet taken a clear stand on Telangana. The TRS, BJP and CPI are demanding separate Telangana state while CPI-M and MIM are opposed to it.

"I know a player who was among the top five but was not sent to nationals because he is from LB Stadium," saidJwala supported Prajakta Sawant, who dragged Gopichand to court, alleging that Gopichand was "mentally harassing" her by not allowing her to participate in the All India National Coaching Camp in Hyderabad. The Mumbai shuttler alleged that Gopichand was out to ruin her career by promoting only those players who train at his academy.Though a relative of Gopichand, Jwala never had good terms with him. She trains at LB Stadium here under former national chief coach Syed Mohammed Arif. "Arif sir also had an opportunity to start an academy but he was never interested in turning badminton into commercial activity."Jwala said the boys and girls from even middle class families were not in a position to afford playing badminton.
