Maryam Zakaria Trying Her Luck With Rowdy Rathore

Right from Jyothilakshmi, Jayamalini to Alphonsa to Mumaith Khan, one hit song is enough to place an item sexy in the right books of Telugu directors. However, one stunning beauty seems not getting her share of pie properly in Tollywod.

She is Maryam Zakaria. This sexy seductress from Iran is noticeable for her erotic sex appeal and curves that can melt the hardest of metals. Maryam has done half a dozen of songs in Telugu till now, but none of them are keeping her busy. List includes songs from, 100% Love, Brahmigadi Katha, Naa Ishtam and the recent release 'Dammu'. With proportionate curves and shapely assets, one needs a bit of luck to shine in the tinsel town it seems. Her stint with Bollywood has also failed to create space for her, with 'Agent Vinod' going flop away.
The main reason for her not clicking in Tollywood is that she is of heroine material but not an item-sexy. Off course, fans say a lot when it comes to talking about their heartthrob beauties. Maryam has one more Telugu movie to her credit while 'Rowdy Rathore' is another movie in Hindi that can test her luck as a saucy 'item-girl'. Wish her luck.

Trisha Disappointed With NTR Dhammu

Like expected, this petite beauty is looking like 'sister' to Jr.NTR in his latest film 'Dammu'. Unable to face the severe criticism, she is heard taking a month break from all activities before she joins another Telugu film crew for a shoot.

Trisha is slowly losing her grip on Tollywood and her latest 'Dammu' is the perfect example. If you keep the casting debacle which made her an inappropriate pick beside NTR aside, Trisha's role is also limited and just for songs. A hot beauty that has done meaty roles in terms of both performance and glamour has chosen a pretty ordinary role to add just another movie to her credit with this flick.
However, she revealed that she is taking a break for the whole month of May before she announces the details of her upcoming Telugu projects. Sources revealed that she has only Raviteja's untitled movie in her hands, otherwise her stint with Tollywood is over. Anyways, let her forget all bad memories in May and see what she is offering for TFI next!

Over Hype For Pawan Gabbar Singh

Films having high expectations can rest assured of a grand opening, but most of the times they would turn dangerous for the film's prospects at box office. A film with high expectations should meet those to survive at the box office. Or else it would be rejected right on day 1. Even average content won't help the film to stay afloat!

NTR's Dammu is a prime example for over hype turning into the biggest disadvantage for the movie. This film was overly hyped by the makers and they didn't try to lower the expectations at all. Audiences and fans expected this film to be a great visual treat, but Dammu was average at best. Had this film released with a minimum expectations, the response would have been different.
Racha was released amidst nil expectations and turned out to be an average fare. Audiences were more than pleased with that and made the film a blockbuster. The next big release Gabbar Singh is riding on high expectations like Dammu. So the film should live up to the expectations to satisfy the viewers. Or else Gabbar too will have to suffer the consequences of over hype.

Gabbar Singh Pilla Pilla Song Shoot In Europe

Most of the times, viewers' thoughts are reversed when it comes to the visualization of songs in big budgeted projects. It is now felt that it is the same thing happening with Powerstar's upcoming project.

Our creative film makers generally prefer an outdoor location for a song that we actually feel like they'll shoot indoor or in Telugu nativity. One of the top hits of 'Gabbar Singh' album is experiencing this 'nativity' shuffle. 'Pilla Pilla' song from GS remains to be the height of mass for its saucy lyrics and foot tapping 'dappu' beats. Director Harish Shankar opted to film this song in Europe locales, rather doing it in a studio amidst native village back drop. Critics are feeling that a song with high expectations and poor filming will leave negative impact on audiences.
However, fans are ruling out this theory as Pawan Kalyan is famous for filming mass songs in foreign locales. They are asking to check 'Hey pill ne peru lovely..' song from Tammaudu to know the mass power of their hero in foreign backdrop. Wait and see whether GS song holds expectations are not!

Adding to Venky fans misery, Producer Dil Raju (who is known for his business acumen) has planned to unveil the first look of the film on May 31st. This particular date May 31 have a specific importance - it's superstar Krishna's birthday.

Some times the fans of Venkatesh get a doubt, 'Is their hero playing a character actor role in Mahesh's film?' "The makers of SVSC aren't giving due respect to our hero, who is much senior to Mahesh Babu in the Industry. All they need is money," says a die-hard Venky fan.

Although Venky fans were upset with the decision, the trade analysts say it's a right move by the producer to cash in on the popularity of Mahesh Babu. "Undoubtedly, Mahesh Babu is bigger than any other star in the Industry. What's wrong if the makers use his popularity in a right way? Ultimately, it helps the film," says a trade pundit.
A multi-starrer film in a hero-driven Industry like Tollywood is never gonna be easy, as several external factors come into play. Let's see, how Dil Raju handles it!

Life Ki Toh Lag Gayi 2012 Hindi Film Review(First On NET)

Life Ki Toh Lag Gayi 2012 Hindi Film Review(First On NET)
Having a talented star cast like Ranvir Shorey, Kay Kay Menon and Manu Rishi, audience expects to get something worth watching in the movie. However, director Rakesh Mehta has disappointed the audiences hugely through his latest release as the movie lacks great script and creates chaos and complexity.

Story:
The film’s story revolves around five vital characters in the film. Ranvir plays a Bengali man who has lost his love and has now turned an alcoholic. Kay Kay plays a role of gangster seeking revenge for his parent’s death. Neha essays a role of ambitious girl who does not have much bank balance but dreams of becoming big. She later ends up conning men for earn her living. Manu essays a role of cop who has just transferred from to Mumbai from Haryana. Pradhyuman essays a role of Ranvir’s friend who helps him out in giving him suggestions on various ways of committing suicide to get over from his break-up trauma.

Banner: K Sera Sera, VM Final Cut Entertainment
Cast: Kay Kay Menon, Ranvir Shorey, Pradhuman Singh, Neha Bhasin, Manu Rishi
Direction, Screenplay, Dialouges: Rakesh Mehta
Music: Vinay Jaiswal
Cinejwala.com Movie Rating: 2/5
Exclusively: www.Cinejwala.com


Analysis:
The stories of all these characters run parallel in the cinema and thus make the film more complex. It confuses the audience more than entertaining them. Also, the film gives a been-there-seen-that kind of a feeling.

Performances:
Talking about the performances of the actors, everyone has done an outstanding job especially Ranvir, Kay Kay and Manu have delivered remarkable performances. However, these actors get wasted as the story lacks good script.

Technicalities:
Director Mehta’s vision of direction has absolutely gone wrong as he could have used his actor’s talent in a good manner in the film. Mehta is the only to be blamed for making chaotic movie as the movie has failed to offer anything. Besides weak screenplay and wrong characterization, the movie has turned out to be a great disappointment.

Plus points: Manu Rishi

Minus points: Story less entertaining

Final Word: There are better films out there to watch for time pass.

Dhammu 2012 Telugu Film Review(First On NET)

Dhammu 2012 Telugu Film Review(First On NET)
Dhammu Movie Review, Rating, Dhammu Telugu Film Review: NTR’s previous two films didn’t fare well at the box office. He is back in his forte, i.e. mass masala with Dhammu. Boyapati Srinu who has mastered the art of making mass entertainers directed this film. Trisha and Karthika are the heroines. Here is the review in detail…

Story:
An orphan is adopted by a big Rajas family and is given the name Raja Vasi Reddy (Junior NTR). Raja Vasi Reddy comes to know that he will have to take a huge responsibility of saving his village from dreaded blood thirsty goons. At the start he will be reluctant to take the responsibility. But once he takes it to heart there is no stopping. How does he win over the enemies and how he makes his village a peaceful place is the crux of Dhammu’s story.

Banner: Creative Commercials Entertainment
Casting: Jr NTR, Karthika, Trisha,
Direction: Boyapati Srinu
Music: M.M.Keeravani
Producer: Alexander Vallabha, KS Ramarao
Cinejwala.com Movie Rating: 3/5
Exclusively: www.Cinejwala.com


Analysis:
Dhammu is yet another commercial potboiler film with a routine story and age old backdrop. This film may not get glowing reviews from the critics. NTR fans will lap it up and will watch it repeatedly for NTR’s roaring performance. Dhammu has the elements to lure the masses in B and C centers.

Director could have written a better screenplay to take the film to next level. There are too many ups and downs in the narration. Heroism never gets completely elevated as the story demands such underplay. But from the outlook of the film one would expect a better and powerful output.

Boyapati played it safe by taking up a subject that has been beaten to death many a time. He tried to add humor to the narration in first half and it is just okay. There are some really powerful sequences and equally dull moments in the film. Perhaps a low profile release would have received a better response.

Performances:
Junior NTR was superb in this film. He was apt for the character and shouldered the film throughout. If not for NTR this film would have been a dud. NTR’s performance in interval scene got great response from his fans.

Trisha was fine and Karthika was not bad either. They don’t have much scope to perform. All they have to do is to shake their leg with NTR when needed and mouth few spicy dialogues. Nazar’s getup was good. Venu was Okay in his brief yet important role. Presence of Brahmanandam and Ali is felt but they didn’t make any difference to the film.

Technicalities:
Dhammu has good technical values. Cinematography was top notch and so was the music. Keeravani’s background score stands out. Editing could have been better and Dialogues add repeat value for the target audience. Producers spent a fortune on the film. It is very rich in every frame. Director Boyapati Srinu made sure that there are good number of powerful scenes. His trademark scenes were shot well and the rest of the scenes are just okay. Had he concentrated more on the screenplay, Dhammu might have hit the right chords with the audience.

Final Word:
Dhammu is for fans. NTR fans will be pleased with this powerful mass film as they didn’t get to see in such a powerful role in the recent times. Others may like it or may not like due to poor content and old concept.

Dasari Narayana Rao Outburts On Award Lobbying

Dasari Narayana Rao has once again made controversial statements, but this time it is about the sanctity of the awards. The senior director alleged that awards, both at state and central level can be managed.

"It all started with private awards, where the organizers gave away awards to Top Stars in the Industry to cash in on their presence for attracting sponsors and TRPs. Now, this bad custom has spread to state and national awards. Sadly the prestigious awards like Padma Sri, Padma Bhushan, Padma Vibhushan and even Dada Saheb Phalke can be obtained now through lobbying. There were instances that some people got benefited, though they weren't eligible for it," said Dasari.
Surprisingly, It was Dasari who attended many private awards functions in the past and also showered praises on the winners and the organisers. Dasari, earlier, claimed that his film 'Parama Veera Chakra' would bag National Awards and the lead star Balakrishna would be given Best Actor award.

Some star heroes push producers of their movies to a different level and one punch from them will suppress the same maker to underworld. Another hot producer of Tollywood is now adding his name to one such list.

Producer of successful movies like 'Andhrudu', 'Pedababu' and 'Vikramarkudu' is now not even getting a single penny from financiers.

Shriya Saran To Act As Apsara In Mohanbabu Movie

As you are expecting, fading heroine Shriya Saran got her last assignment in Telugu industry from M-camp this time. We mean to say she is all set to act in an upcoming movie of Mohan Babu Camp.

'Nuvva-Nena' debacle has hit hard on Shriya, affecting her further career in Telugu Film Industry. Currently, she is having no work in hands despite her readiness for sexposing, bikinis and lip locks. Reports say that Mohan Babu has recommended Shriya's name for an 'apsara' character in his upcoming movie. Slightly with a touch of negativity and a dose of skin show, this role will be a pivotal one in MB's upcoming mythological flick that deals with the story of Demon king Ravana.
If all goes well, the film will hit screens by next year with whose success she can open a second innings in Tollywood after a stint of flop-ful years. Other than this movie, she has nothing in hand and should wander here and there for a year if she commits this, says a Film Lover.

Ram Charan Doesnt Want To Be Called Ram Charan Teja

While the media and the public has began referring to him by the name Ram Charan Tej since a very long time, the actor himself seems to be unhappy with it. He prefers to be called Ram Charan over Ram Charan Tej.

Finally, Charan has decided to clarify this to one and all. He used the social media to send this message the film lovers and the media. "My dad named me Ram Charan not Ram Charan Tej. So I feel good when people call me just "Ram Charan". I also request the media to note this," he wrote on his twitter page.
Now the question is why didn't the actor object when the director's used Ram Charan Teja in the title cards of his film. Times change, people change, tastes change! So everybody, from now onwards Mega Powerstar is just Ram Charan, not Ram Charan Tej!

Bhanu Gained 200 Crore Rupees In Handri Neeva Project

The Crime Investigation Department (CID) officials have revealed that Bhanu incurred a gain of Rs 200 crore in Handri-Neeva project. This is done by taking contracts and sub-contracts of the project using benami names.

Although Bhanu has done several deals without Suri's knowledge, the investments in Handri-Neeva were made following the orders of his leader. Using his good contacts with former chief minister late YS Rajasekhar Reddy, Suri acquired the contracts of the project. The Handri-Neeva Sujala Sravanthi project is intended to provide irrigation facility to four districts in the Rayalaseema region. Late YSR laid the foundation stone for this mega project.

High Security For Bhanu in Cherlapally Jail

Factionist Maddelacheruvu Suri's murderer Bhanu Kiran complained that there is threat to his life from the opponents (mainly Suri gang), after his arrest at Zaheerabad when he was on his way to Hyderabad from Mumbai. So, he was immediately produced before the magistrate after the press meet with media-persons. After taking orders from the magistrate, the CID officials had rushed him to the Cherlapally jail on Saturday midnight.

A special high-security block in Cherlapally jail has been allotted to Bhanu Kiran. Generally, around 20 inmates will share a single barrack. In November 2008, Moddu Seenu (the prime accused in Paritala Ravi murder case) was killed by his fellow prisoner Om Prakash in Anantapur prison. Taking this incident into account, a separate cell was given to Bhanu by the jail authorities.
Reports say, Suri's gang has pleadged to kill Bhanu. Their plans to catch Bhanu before the police could get him didn't work. As now Bhanu is in the prison, Suri's gang is using their past contacts with politicians and jail authorities to assassinate him.

Raviteja Daruvu Postponed Due To Gabbar Singh

Raviteja took a backseat and postponed the release of his masala flick 'Daruvu' to pave the way for the massive release of Powerstar Pawan Kalyan's mass entertainer 'Gabbar Singh' (release date 10th or 11th).

Although the film was being planned to hit screens on May 4th, due to the understanding between the producers of summer releases the release has been postponed to May 18th. Now, the producers have decided to maintain a healthy gap between the release each others films to avoid the possibility of one film eating up the revenues of the other.
The delay in the release of 'Daruvu' will also benefit Young Tiger NTR's Dammu (release date 27th) as it will have no competition at the Box Office for atleast two weeks, that's till the release of Gabbar Singh. And if Gabbar Singh hits the bulls eye, Daruvu will be postponed further. Will Pawan's magic works this time? Mega Fans, keep your fingers crossed!

Dammu Producers Pressure On Boyapati Srinu

Boyapati Seenu has become a sought after mass-director to deal with action oriented mass movies in the likes of VV Vinayak. His latest movie's producers are said to be forcing him a bit to recover the whole budget.

While it is known to everyone that Boyapati's previous three films, Bhadra, Tulasi and Simha are stupendous hits, reports say a different angle about them. Other than 'Simha', his rest two movies have incurred losses for distributors in a couple of places. Insiders are saying that his upcoming movie 'Dammu' producers are pressurizing him to trim the second half of this flick. Say it 'Bhadra' or 'Tulasi', both go a bit over board regarding sentiment and this may not work with Jr.NTR, the producer has felt like.
It is heard that the producers of 'Dammu' are leaving no stone unturned to recover their complete investment in first week itself irrespective of movie's fate. Critics feel that forcing a director to do some unsatisfied cuts for the sake of budget recovery may not go well.

Vayalar Ravi Inists Megastar Chiranjeevi to Get Back to Films

Congress high command has given its nod for the re-entry of actor-turned-politician Chiranjeevi into film with the landmard (150th) film. Union minister and AICC observer Vayalar Ravi, who was in the state to prepare the party for the upcoming by-polls, stressed the need for Chiru's re-entry.

"Vayalar Ravi insisted me to act in films again. But I conveyed to him that I'm not having the time for films. Then he stressed that sending the message using a powerful medium like cinema will have more impact on the people then political yatras. When he said that people are expecting films from me, I felt it encouraging. I might do a film soon, if a good subject comes my way," said Chiru.
Although several directors were waiting for the golden chance to direct Chiru's 150th film, the Iconic actor is very cautious about the script. He is looking out for a subject which has both commercial elements to entertain his fans and a good message in it to come close to the voters. Two birds in one shot, Right!

Mamata Banerjee Takes Inspiration From YS Jagan Mohan Reddy

West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee has stated that they are going to start a TV channel and newspaper to properly highlight their government's work. Observers are saying that she might have got inspiration by looking at YS Jagan.

In a bid to put full stop to other news channels and news papers that are irking YSR and his party, the late-CM has started his channel and paper. With his son YS Jagan as the captain, the channel still continues to woo Telugu people. The channel is helping YS Jagan a lot to promote more about his newly established YSR party and their petty but serious comments against opposition. It also gives updates about his tours in different areas, which no channel bothers to cover about.

Likewise, Mamata Banerjee can also now use her channel to promote more about them and less about others, say observers. Off course, the opinion of public and leaders about Mamata and YS Jagan are quite contrast, but having media in hand is always a useful weapon.

Bhanu Kiran Refused to Wear Black Mask Before Media

Seems like, Bhanu Kiran is enjoying all the attention he has been getting after the murder of factionist Maddelacheruvu Suri. When the CID officials insisted him to wear a black cloth to cover his face to produce him before the media, Bhanu refused to do so.

Instead, he questioned the sleuths "Why do you want me to wear the mask? and What do you want to prove by doing so? Everyone knows me very well and there is nothing to hide". He also hinted that if he was produced before the media with a mask, the CID officials will land in trouble. "Media and the people might think that the cops have produced someone else in the name of Bhanu, to divert the some other issue or to close Suri's murder case file," he said.
Initially, the CID officials feared that producing Bhanu without covering his face might trigger violence in Anantapur district. Although the cops had planned to produce Bhanu before the media for just a few minutes, the pressure mounted by mediapersons has forced them to prolong it till the end of pressmeet. In fact, Bhanu's free advice about the mask has shocked the CID officials as they had never experienced such thing before.

Eega And GS Release With 3 Weeks Gap

Telugu filmmakers have realized that gone are the days when two or more films clash at the box office and all could come out as winners. The business module has changed now. It is all about making the most in initial weeks. Therefore they can't afford to share the business with other films. Hence they are maintaining a healthy gap of two to three weeks even in the peak summer.

May big releases Gabbar Singh and Eega are all set to release on 9th and 30th respectively. With Eega slated for 30th release, Gabbar Singh work has speeded up to make to it to the theaters by
9th or 11th of May. Hence, the shooting is going on at a brisk pace. By maintaining three weeks gap both the films are going to benefit big time. We have seen Businessman and Racha doing terrific business in the span of two to three weeks.

So this deal will be helpful for both these films which have the potential to become huge blockbusters. On the other hand, NTR's Dammu, which is releasing on April 27th, will get at least two weeks time to storm the box office before Gabbar Singh arrives. Superb trend this is, isn't it?

Hot Samantha Attracts With Less Remuneration

We see big shopping malls and stores giving very good discounts on all the branded clothes and other accessories during Aashadam and other off seasons. People throng to the malls during the sale time and shop huge. This is one of the best and time tested techniques to do great business. This 'sale' technique will work in any field, including cinema industry.

For example, red hot Samantha can easily demand for the highest paycheck among the current crop of heroines. But being a clever girl,
Samantha is offering rebate prices for the producers. She is not asking for 1 crore or more like Kajal and Tamanna. Instead Samantha is signing films for Rs. 80 lacs, which is at least thirty to forty lacs less than what other top rated heroines get.

This is already proving to be fruitful for Samantha as she is bagging many films when compared to others. Producers are willing to wait for Samantha's dates as they are bowled over by the discount prices. Samantha is undoubtedly the best bet heroine with immense craze among the youth as of now. When one gets her for a sale price, will they miss the chance? Clever na!

Ileana and Mass Hero Raviteja Full Hopes On Devudu Chesina Manushulu

It is alright if you are trying for a big break in cinema and are yet to get it but it is a real hell if you have already tasted success, reached the peaks and are going through a rough phase.

Comedy King Brahmanandam Insults National Award Winner

Brahmanandam can generate fun and laughter even without talking a single word on screen. But these days, he is imitating and reprising few real life celebrities to make a mockery of them. Here goes the latest one.

Actually, in an upcoming film, Brahmi is taking the name of 'Vidya Balan', a National Award winner for her stupendous performance in 'Dirty Picture'. But we are not talking about this winner. The super comedian's dress, getup and profession in 'Daruvu' remind us of a popular choreographer. A big tilak on forehead, sleeveless ethnic coat and a large neck-chain resemble Shiva Shankar Master. He made us proud an year back by winning National Award for his 'Dheera.. Dheera..' song in 'Magadheera'.
Brahmi is heard making mockery of this talented dance master in Raviteja's upcoming movie. Sources say that his dance institute in the film is a spoof of Shiva Shankar master and his antics. Writers may etch roles with inspiration from popular persons to make fun and earn audience, but it is actors to give weight to another artist's talent, say critics.

KA Paul's Secret Understanding With TELUGU DESAM PARTY

KA Paul is making sure that he blinks in the media everyday for some reason or the other. But the strategies, policies and standings of this evangelist are still unclear and are raising many doubts now.

Reports say that KA Paul is not willing to contest in all the constituencies in coming by-polls as publicized. Even though he is rubbishing that his 'Praja Shanti' party is not going to tie up with any other political party of state, there are leaving some places without contesting. Observers are saying that Paul is not fielding candidates where TDP is strong, but taking things seriously at places where Jagan has a hold. This clearly implies that he has a secret pact with Telugudesam party.

The news is getting strong, with TDP chief Chandrababu promising a galore of schemes for converted Christians and minorities of this religion only at places where they are strong. However, one cannot conclude this, until politician Paul announces his list of contestants and contesting constituencies.

YSR-Congress Worried About Radha's Presence

Stage is set for former Congress leader, slain MLA Vangaveeti Ranga's son Radha to join hands with YS Jagan. However, YSR party cadres are said to be a little worried about this young leader's presence.

Mainly, two things are said to be worrying the intellectuals of YSR-C, as to how Radha will come handy for them in the coming polls. Firstly, when Chiru started Prajarajyam, votes of Kapus are split between Congress and him, but there is no big loss to TDP which Jagan wants now. By using Radha, YSR Congress cannot pull the votes of Kapus across Krishna and Godavari districts as he is not well known outside Vijayawada.

Secondly, Vangaveeti Radha is not staying in a party if he is not getting attention and posts. He has quit Congress to join 'Prajarajyam' and is now moving to YSR-C, expecting a heap of opportunities and powers. But it is not so easy to get powers in Jagan's coterie and senior leaders are apprehensive that Radha may soon end up in some other party.
