'Pavitra' is a much-talked-about film featuring Shreya in the lead role. Both the heroine and the director Janardana Maharshi have high hopes on the film. Some reports earlier said Shreya donned the role of a sex worker. 





When her stills were released, people said she looked like a real call girl. However the latest Film Nagar talk is that Shreya's character in the film is that of a provider of call girls. It is being discussed that some of the dialogues in the trailers are very obscene. Shooting of 'Pavitra' was already completed and the film would be going before the censor during this week.



Some reports are doing the rounds that 'Pavitra' was based on the story of Tara Choudary whose name hit the headlines last year. Though the entire story might not be based on Tara Choudary's life, some of the incidents of the case were depicted in the film say sources. We will have to wait till the release of the film, to know facts.

'Greeku Veerudu' of Nagarjuna is going to hit the screen in a few hours from now. Story just leaked into the Film Nagar….

According to discussions in Film Nagar, the story is like this….

Chandu (Nagarjuna) runs an event management company in USA. He gets used to the culture there. He also feels that life, sentiments and love relations in India would be no different. 

He comes to India on an errand and keeps enjoying life here, thinking that the conditions here are more or less the same. He then meets Sandhya (Nayantara), a doctor committed to service. She works with the charitable organization 'Make a Wish'. She believes in sentiments, relations and love. Chandu and Sandhya who have conflicting views about life, get acquainted to each other. Would Chandu change his views on life and understand human relations and family emotions prevalent in India? Would the two ultimately fall in love? 

This is the crux of the story. It is being said that the character of Meera Chopra is important in the film. It is being talked in the Film Nagar that it is with her entry that the film would take an important turn. 

The film's story resembles director Dasarath's earlier film 'Mr. Perfect', in which the hero and heroine have divergent views. Ultimately they unite when the hero changes his views. We would know if this is the story in a few hours. 

King Nagarjuna told the media on Thursday that he liked his character in the film. He said styling and presentation of his character was more like a mixture of 'Santosham' and 'Manmadhudu'. He also said that the chemistry between him and Nayana Tara worked out well in the film.

Harare, April 30: A soldier complained that he was kept hostage for a week by four women and gang raped, in Zimbabwe. 

The soldier found the four women going in a car and requested them for a lift. Then he said he was abducted and kept in an isolated place and gang raped.  

The soldier alleged that he was bound, gagged, beaten and eventually thrown in a nearby mountain Dangamvura.  

The incident happened after the soldier asked for a lift from a Mercedes car being driven by two women and one male. During the journey, the driver altered the route on the pretext of buying food. The soldier objected and asked to be dropped. 

But he was threatened and one of the woman accomplices showed him a knife and he was blindfolded. The accused even snatched his money. He was kept hostage in a secluded location from 19 to 23 April. The man was allegedly gang-raped by four women for one week. 

The man was eventually thrown at a nearby mountain of Dangamvura. The man has a deep wound on his left leg- supposedly an injury inflicted by a stone.

The local police have registered the complaint and the investigation is underway.

Hyderabad, April 29: Decks are now clear for Kavita, daughter of the TRS chief K Chandrasekhara Rao to contest to Lok Sabha from the Nizamabad Lok Sabha constituency.

Kavita has been so far keeping off the TRS. She is heading the cultural wing Telangana Jagruti and confined herself to Bonalu and other activities. Now KCR reportedly cleared her entry into the party. 

Earlier reports said she was opting either Nizamabad Lok Sabha or Janagaon Assembly constituency. But it is now learnt that Kavita has decided to contest from the Nizamabad Lok Sabha seat. 

Though Kavita has been active in the Telangana movement, she never occupied a seat on the dais at TRS programmes. Kavita occupying a seat at the TRS formation day meeting has become a talking point. It also gave credence to reports about her political intentions.

Hyderabad, April 28: “Arrogance is like a political creature. It does not have senses. It has only a sharp tongue and the pointing finger.”

At the halfway mark in the ongoing cricketing tamasha called Indian Premier League cricketers of all hues and cries are engaged in intense cricketing battle.

While the cricketers are sweating it out and staking their pride and prestige, with elections appearing anytime, the political stadium in Andhra Pradesh is witnessing contests of entirely different nature. Here the politician involved in a game of political musical chairs making the game of politics too intense and hot.

While the contest among the cricketers is very fascinating, that of politicians is becoming more irritating and causing apprehensions. It is entirely different matter as Sports are always entertaining, politics is forever exasperating.

In a rapidly moving game of political one-upmanship among them, each party has embarked on taking up different programmes like conducting padayatras to holding Samarabheri public meetings.

Even as CBN held a massive public meeting to mark culmination of his Vasthunna Mee kosam padayatra at Vishakhapatnam, TRS organized an impressive show of strength at Armoor to mark its 12th formation day. While, KCR made an attempt to roar with rhetoric, CBN tried to convince the people that he is indeed a changed man for the good.

While what shape the antics of Chandrababu would take is a matter to be known in future, KCR’s impressive show at Armoor turned out be a show of pure rhetoric belying the expectations that the meeting would present an action plan to advance Telangana movement. Instead, the meeting controlled by KCR’s rhetoric focused entirely on Political future of the Party.

When a good number TRS honchos small and big, young and old with mini and mega mindsets or no mindsets assembled in the guise of observing the 12th Formation day to work out a new action plan to re-launch Telangana movement at Armoor, it didn’t turn out to be either a clash of the titans or intellectual gymnastics but an “exercise to enable politics and disable the movement”. The rendezvous was only a move to prove that the KCR Parivar was fully in control of both the movement and the party. KCR was full of confidence, and the consensus reached among the party men to his rhetoric symbolized the vital paradigm shift of the party towards more politics and less action plan to strengthen the movement.

Since its existence in the last twelve years, TRS remained hanger-on either to the Congress or to the TDP. At the same time it was no mean achievement to have sustained the politics around the Telangana movement in the face of myriad political scenarios in the long and chequered journey. Amid this roller coaster political journey, KCR led his party with an unmatched alacrity and unparalleled political dexterity. TRS grew into a force to reckon with, yet it hasn’t fortified its position from being a fledgling toddler to an enthusiastic teenager raring to go.

Now the congregation of ‘pink panthers’ is all set to behave like adolescents with its supremo making it clear that the party might be contesting alone in the elections so as to prove its strength among all the parts of Telangana.

Having gained little from the Centre even after intensifying the agitation, KCR is now focusing entirely on the political battle. The election provides him with a huge opportunity to improve the TRS’s political muscle.

The TRS by announcing it will fight the polls alone is also indicating its self-confidence. But it is not as if the drive is not going to be bumpy for KCR. The flip side is that there could be a few Mahbubnagars along the way (the BJP defeated the TRS in a by-poll in Mahbubnagar in 2012) but that is a risk the TRS seems to be willing to take. The pitch that is likely to be sold to the voters in the region is that unless they vote in big numbers for the TRS, there will be no Telangana.

For more than a decade, KCR has been selling a dream to the people of Telangana. The sentiment is still strong in many parts of the region but it is also coupled with disenchantment not only with the Congress but also with the TRS. The party has used the emotion for statehood to gain politically, with KCR’s family now virtually in control of the TRS.

KCR, who asserted that the Telangana movement would continue until the separate state is achieved, has now set his eyes on winning 100 out of 119 assembly seats and 15 out of 17 Lok Sabha seats in the region. He tells the people that a resounding victory with these numbers would bestow a politically decisive position on the party.

Of course this target is like aiming for the sky. Would KCR’s party scale up to telephone wires is a conjecture of time.

The next election will be a make or a break for the TRS. If it wins anywhere close to one hundred seats in the assembly and 13-15 MPs, it will call the shots both in Hyderabad and in New Delhi. And KCR has a reputation of being a hard bargainer. But if it gets less than 60, it will be seen as empirical evidence that the Telangana sentiment is not widespread across the region as it is made out to be and will dilute the demand for statehood.

By seeking recourse for Parliamentary lobbying as the only way to achieve Telangana, KCR is all set to enable the politics and disable the Telangana and its movement which has always been an independent idea, a political aspiration, an emotional sentiment and a cultural curiosity.

The ball is now in the Telangana polling booths.

Visakhapatnam, April 27: Winding up his nearly seven-month long 'padyatra' (walkathon), Telugu Desam Party (TDP) chief N. Chandrababu Naidu Saturday promised to bring back Andhra Pradesh on the path of development and restore its glory.

Addressing a mammoth public meeting here Saturday night, Naidu made a slew of promises for all sections of people and assured that if voted to power in the next elections, he would fulfill all the promises.

The leader of opposition promised waiver of all loans of farmers to make agriculture profitable, protected drinking water to every village, jobs to all educated youth and monthly unemployment allowance in the event of an educated youth not getting employment.

Sharing his experiences of the padyatra, Naidu declared that the first file he would sign after swearing in as the chief minister would be to waive farm loans.

Describing electricity shortage as the biggest problem faced by the state, Naidu promised to put the sector back on rails. He pointed out how the sector was doing well and the state made all-round progress during his nine-year rule (1995-2004).

His other promises include a comprehensive insurance scheme for poor, improving the education sector, generation of jobs for youths, protection of women and girl child, closure of belt shops (unauthorized outlets of liquor shops), and waiver of interest on loans to women's self-help groups.

Naidu targeted Congress government for its inefficiency and YSR Congress party for the corruption. He blamed Congress party's misrule for the problems faced by people, while accusing late chief minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy of looting public wealth while cheating people in the name of various welfare schemes.

He termed YSR party as a child of Congress, saying it was formed to protect the ill-gotten money. Naidu lamented that Hyderabad had become corruption capital of the country. He said ministers including the home minister were accused in YSR party leader Y.S. Jaganmohan Reddy's illegal assets case and Chief Minister N. Kiran Kumar Reddy was busy in shielding them.

Naidu ruled out any truck with communal parties and claimed that TDP was committed to protect secularism. He predicted that regional parties would sweep 2014 elections and that TDP would once again play a key role in national politics.

Thousands of people from various parts of the state turned up for what is being seen as the main opposition party's major show of strength ahead of the next year's elections to the state assembly and Lok Sabha.

Earlier, the former chief minister unveiled a 60-feet pylon to mark the culmination of 2,817 km long padyatra, the longest such padyatra undertaken by a politician in the state.

Naidu's wife Bhuvaneswari, son Lokesh, brother-in-law and popular Telugu actor N. Balakrishna and top leaders of the party were present on the occasion.

By undertaking the padyatra, the 64-year-old broke the record of his bitter rival Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy, who had covered nearly 1,500 km in 64 days in 2003. That 'padyatra' helped Rajasekhara Reddy to bring Congress party to power in 2004, ending Naidu's nine-year-long rule.

Hoping to repeat history, Naidu launched his padyatra on Oct 2 last year at Hindupur in Anantapur district. He covered 16 districts, interacting with various sections of people to know their problems and making promises if TDP regains power in 2014 elections.

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.

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!

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".

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. Anjali's brother played crucial role in the entire drama and though police were aware of her whereabouts, since two state ministers intervened, even they enacted the disappearance drama. 

There were reports that Sravanti Ravikishore and dubbing film maker Suresh Kondeti are also behind the episode. Doubts turn towards them with Suresh Kondeti coming to the conference after Anjali's appearance in front of police. Buzz is Anjali later drove to his guest house only. Some suspect these two film makers played these tricks only to cash in on to Anjali's craze but many say Anali's enacted this just due to her arrogance.

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.
