Will Chiru fulfill Ram Charan's dream?

Ram Charan couldn't digest the fact that his father and matinee idol Chiranjeevi has said goodbye to the acting career.

The young hero says he has dreamt of shaking a leg with his dad, alike Abhishek-Amitabh's 'Kajra Re' song.

"i dreamt of doin a song like kajra re wit dad .i really envy abhishek bachan to hav acted wit his dad in soo many movies," tweeted Ram Charan.

It was not Ram Charan alone, but many people who admired Chiru all these years as a film star were upset with the statement he had made.

Meanwhile, Chiru expressing his desire to become CM openly is drawing mixed response from the political circles. However, Chiru's coterie has defended it by saying their leader has made that comments taking future prospects into consideration.

"Chiru was assured by Congress High Command that he would lead the Congress campaign in the 2014 elections," said a source close to the star politician.

Hope Chiru reconsiders his decision of quitting films to fulfill his son's dream and also fulfills his very own dream to become CM.

Why Chiru Not Taking Brothers' Names?

Though Chiranjeevi is a man of film charisma, the observers have tagged him as a poor communicator and lacks tact in his words. The reason for this discussion is the recent set of statements that Chiru gave regarding his dream of becoming a CM and quitting films permanently.

 

Apparently, Chiru said “I have given all my film related stuff to Ramcharan. I am into public service only.” Those who heard this say “If he had said my brothers, my brother-in-law then it would have been fine. But this has become a comedy. Why he is not taking his brothers’ names? Is he giving more thoughts to media about his friction with them?”

 

They added “Many times, diplomatic statements are given in front of the media to maintain cover and things are settled internally. But Chiru went ahead with his own style and has given feelers to media circles.” Let us see what will come next from the mega camp.               

I wanted to prove that Big B is not old: Puri Interview

Tollywood director Puri Jagannath, who is returning to Hindi films after seven years with "Bbuddah...Hoga Tera Baap" in which Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan plays a bold and flamboyant role, says he made the movie to tell the people that the 68-year-old actor is still young.

"I'm a big fan of Amitabh Bachchan since childhood and I used to watch all his movies. But then came a time, when he started doing films that I didn't like him in," Jagannath told IANS in an interview.

"After 'Mard' I didn't see his films till he did 'Sarkar' and that was perfect for him," he said.

"I wanted to make a film just for him and make it in a way that I can tell people that he is not old. He still has that fire, he still has that charisma. Hence was born the idea of this film," he added.

In "Bbuddah...Hoga Tera Baap", Bachchan is seen as an angry man who wears bright, bold, over-the-top clothes and hates it when someone calls him old. The films also stars Hema Malini, Raveena Tandon, Sonu Sood and Sonal Chauhan and is slated for release Friday.

The 44-year-old director, who had a grim beginning at the Bollywood box office in 2004 when he made "Shart", is confident about success this time and believes that people will like Big B in the new image.

"I have been confident about this character from the very beginning. Bachchan is very good with every emotion, whether its's drama or comedy, and he is truly an entertainer. So I'm sure people will like him in this image as well," Jagannath said.

The Telugu director, who has made successful films like "Badri", "Pokiri", "Chiruta" and "Neninthe", among others, said working with Bachchan was one of the best experiences he has ever had.

"It was a wonderful experience working with Bachchan. He is a very cool and calm person and very co-operative. I learnt a lot from him," he said.

"Sometimes he even used to give his opinion. He is very committed and focused. He will practice the scene at home, will tell me how he will do it and if I make some last-minute changes, he would incorporate them," he said.

"He used to always be fully prepared. I thoroughly enjoyed working with him," he added.

After "Bbuddah... Hoga Tera Baap", Jagannath is looking at making a stronger presence in Bollywood and planning to start working on three Hindi films next year.

"I want to do more Hindi films now. I have three scripts. I want to start working on them next year. However, the cast and other things are not confirmed as of now," he revealed. (IANS)

Junior NTR's Goal Is 2019

In sharp contrast to Chiranjeevi’s public display of chief ministerial ambition, Junior NTR is silently working towards his goal of taking over the reins of Telugu Desam Party from his uncle N Chandrababu Naidu.

Slowly but surely, Junior NTR wants to achieve his goal by 2019.

Without making it very obvious, he has been discreetly making the moves to create a situation where pressure will mount from the cadre for a change of guard. A perception is being created in the party that somebody from NTR’s family should take over the party to arrest its slide.

According to sources, Junior NTR, who has earned a good reputation for his oratory skills and mass appeal, has been confiding in his close friends that he would enter active politics after a couple of years. At present, he is focusing on his film career.

Junior NTR is of the view that 2014 may still not be favourable to TDP but in the years ahead there is a bright prospect for the party’s revival. He also does not foresee any competition from Naidu’s industrialist-son Nara Lokesh for taking control of the party.

Already, there are indications of a simmering succession battle in the first family of the regional party. The rift came out in the open during the recent “Mahanadu” when Junior NTR’s father and party MP N Harikrishna walked out of the meeting in a huff, peeved over the importance being given to Lokesh.

'180' Producers To Sue Siddarth

How much ever one may promote, few films just don’t work. But few other films have the facility to get promoted. One such film is ‘180’. But due to the headstrong nature of Siddarth, the producers are not having that chance.

 

Siddarth who feels like a big superstar came up with few nasty comments on the electronic media and due to that, the media houses are not cooperating in any aspect for the film. It is heard that the producers are requesting Siddarth to apologize but their request has fallen on deaf ears.

 

Now, the buzz is that the producers are thinking about demanding back the remuneration they gave to Siddarth and if he doesn’t agree, they might file a complaint on Siddarth at the film chamber citing compensation for the losses.

Why is Ram Charan Teja jealous of Abhishek?

Rama Charan Teja is disappointed that his father and Telugu superstar Chiranjeevi has shelved his plan to return to films. 

 

The actor said he was jealous of Bollywood star Abhishek Bachchan.  

 

"I dreamt of doing a song like Kajra Re with dad . I really envy Abhishek Bachchan to have acted with his dad in so many movies." Ram Charan Teja wrote on Twitter.

The actor-turned-politician was supposed to make a comeback in a film which was to be produced by Teja. Chiranjeevi had announced in December 2010 that he would don the grease paint once again for his 150th film.  But that project did not take off because of political developments in the state as well as his Praja Rajyam Party's merger with the Congress. 

Fate Of Tollywood July 1st

On the Mumbai front, there is ‘Bbuddah…Hoga Tera Baap’ which has created enough expectations. But since this is Puri Jagannadh’s directorial venture having the likes of Charmee, Subbaraju, many Tollywood audiences are keen to watch it. So, will they vote for this Bollywood venture, remains to be seen.

On the Hyderabad front, there is ‘Virodhi’ and ‘Brahmigadi Katha’. While doubts are already flashing for the latter, ‘Virodhi’ is a hot favourite as the trailers are impressive. Expectations are high due to director Neelakantha’s taking, the subject he chose for the film etc. Well…the fate will be out in another 24 hours.

RGV's Satire Tweets On Chiranjeevi

Whenever a statement is given by the movie maker Ramgopal Varma two things happen- confusion or controversy. And the best place to see what turmoil is being created is the twitter profile of Ramu wherein he keeps throwing few random thoughts out of his several mind flashes.

 

This time, he seems to have set his focus on megastar Chiranjeevi. Well, the tweet reads- "Chiranjeevi is a phenomenon and the people of Andhra Pradesh are not and they proved that by not making him a chief minister. But I anyday want to see the people of AP queuing up for Chiranjeevi’s tickets rather than Chiranjeevi queuing up for the fuckers votes. I used the word fuckers becos any given day I luv Chiranjeevi much more than I luv the people of Andhra Pradesh"

 

Though the tweet looks curt, those who read between the lines say that Ramu is actually taking a dig at the megastar. Knowing Chiranjeevi’s current political position and the response he is getting from the crowds, many are saying that such tweets from Ramu could only be satires and not super compliments.

Sexy Babe ditches Superstar

Bollywood latest sensation Sonakshi Sinha opted out of Kamal Hassan's bilingual film 'Vishwaroopam', citing dates problem. She was to play Kamal's wife in the film.

Sonakshi's decision to opt out comes as a surprise since the actress was very enthusiastic when she initially signed the film. But, her excitement didn't last for longer. As the film failed to go on floors as per schedule, due to the creative differences between Kamal and director Selvaraghavan. Selvaraghavan walked out of the project in the last miniute. After that, Kamal decided to direct the film by himself, which delayed the shoot further.

Sonakshi has no other option but to opt out of the film, due to her prior commitment. The actress was even upset with the fact that she has lost the opportunity to share screen space with legendary Kamal Hassan.

Kamal too was very particular about casting Sonakshi opposite him, after watching her performance in 'Dabangg'. But, all his plans have been washed out with Sonakshi's exit. Now, he is in search for Sonakshi's replacement!

Hero sold his house for Rs 7.5 crore

Rajinikanth's son-in-law and Tamil star Dhanush is on a house hunt now. The actor took some time from his busy schedule to fulfill his dream of having a house of his own in Adyar.

For the past few months, Dhanush has been pre-occupied with Rajini's health. As the Superstar has recovered now, Dhanush could finally spend some time pursuing his dream. Though he had a flat in Mylapore, he wanted to buy a house of his own, so he sold his flat and began hunting for new one.

"Buying a house is a very common desire for every human being and my son had this plan for a long time. Because of a very tight schedule he couldn't accomplish it and to add to that Rajini's health was also not ok, so he had to postpone the plan. Recently he sold his house for Rs 7.5 crore, planning to add some more money and buy the house of his dreams in Adyar. Dhanush used to always tell us that he wanted to buy a house in Adyar and we are happy his dream has come true!," said Dhanush's father.

"I was angry" says Hot Beauty

Sizzling beauty Katrina Kaif has done few daredevil stunts for her upcoming film 'Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara'. 

The role she played in the film demanded the actress to do both dirt biking and deep sea diving, which were so stressful. 

"Both, dirt biking and deep sea diving were more traumatic than I had initially anticipated. I had the basic understanding of smaller bikes, but I had to practice with a bigger and heavier one for the movie. I refused to understand that you've to let the bike fall, as I was being stubborn and trying to prevent it from going down. So I got hurt once or twice. As for diving, I had learnt it in a pool, but had to shoot the scenes in seas with choppy waters. It was so stressful that at the end of the four-day shoot in the waters, I had lost three and half kilos," said Katrina.

Katrina had close encounters with the sharks while shooting in the sea.

"Well, I was told about the sharks later, after we had finished the shoot. I was angry at not being informed earlier, but I was explained that the knowledge could have caused me to panic and hamper my performance. Of course, if I had known about the sharks, I wouldn't have ventured into the waters. About a month later, I heard the place was shut due to sharks," said the actress.

Hope Katrina's hard work will pay off!

"There is no ban on me" says Sexy Actress

Sexy babe Kajal Agarwal landed in all sorts of troubles with the media reports, which quoted the actress as saying 'she is not a South Indian actress'.

The actress said that she has no idea from where all these rumours started and was upset on hearing that South Indian film fraternity wanted to ban her. 

"I will never be disrespectful to the Telugu and Tamil film industry. I have been brought up to respect my roots. And my roots are in Tollywood and Kollywood. So I'm really hurt and angry that someone has started this whole 'ban' issue without as much as bothering to speak to me,'' said Kajal.

"I have not heard from any association nor have I heard from any one of consequence wanting to ban me because I guess everyone responsible and in a position of power knows the real truth. I have had super success in Magadheera, Maaveran, Mr.Perfect and with the grace of God, my career in the South is going upward. Why would I wish to give up something so good?," she adds. 

Kajal also made it clear that she would do Telugu, Tamil and Hindi films simultaneously and there is no question of choosing one over the other.

Trisha's heart beats for him

Hot beauty Trisha revealed that she had agreed to star in the Tamil film 'Mankatha', only because Ajith is playing the lead in the film. 

"I agreed to star in Mankatha despite being offered a small role is only because the film had Ajith playing the lead," said Trisha. 

The actress, who is a hardcore fan of Ajith's biriyani, says she always loved working with the star.

"Working with Ajith is always a blast. I freaked out on his biriyanis. He is a wonderful cook and his wife Shalini is lucky to have him as her husband. I will surely miss him once shoot gets done," she said.

Recently, the director of 'Mankatha' planned a lip-lock scene with Ajith and Trisha for the film. Trisha immediately agreed to do it, without charging a single penny extra. The reason for it is again the chance to share lip-lock with Ajith. Generally, Trisha demands extra remuneration for lip-locks and excessive skin show. Here, she gave an exception to Ajith. But, the actress was shocked when Ajith took a back step by saying he can’t do this particular scene as his film will be watched by his family and his daughter.

Hope, Trisha's wish comes true in future.
