Srija Marriage: Pawan's Villain of the piece? 2007-10-24 00:11:00 Highly placed sources say that in the Chiranjeevi family, Pavan Kalyan is being seen as the person responsible for Srija eloping from home and marrying Shirish Bharadwaj in a court. These sources suggest that Kalyan knew about the affair between Srija and Bharadwaj well in advance and he along with a young member of the family had warned the duo to desist. “The love birds were ordered not to go ahead with their plans,” sources say.Though Chiranjeevi’s family has been debating on the affair and various options to thwart any hasty decision by Srija, a couple of senior members of the family, including Chiranjeevi’s wife were not in a mood to provoke Srija and her boyfriend. Other members were of the opinion that they should play along for the time being but Kalyan was firm that he would not allow Shirish to go around with Srija.“This hardline move is seen as a major turn in the entire story leading to Srija hastening her decision to formally marry Bharadwaj. “There is a feelin Read more:Villain

Chiranjeevi's image takes a hit 2007-10-23 10:34:00 HYDERABAD: Trouble has come visiting Chiranjeevi at a time when his caste brethren, the Kapus, are trying to rally around to pose an effective challenge to the dominant Reddys and Kammas, who, in spite of their small numbers, rule the roost in Andhra politics.The Kapus, for the last two years, have been trying to persuade Chiranjeevi to enter politics in the hope that his megastar status would help galvanise the community — much in the manner N T Rama Rao helped bring Kammas on the state's political centrestage in the early 1980s.Although Chiranjeevi has often proved fickle, in recent weeks he seemed to have sent some positive signals about his political career, say some leading Kapus. But with the controversy about his daughter's marriage, Chiranjeevi's image has taken a hit."I don't think it will be possible to use him as a symbol anymore. His political potential is lost," said a Kapu insider who, like many of his ilk, are "very upset" with the developments. He says those who c

Nayan-The Queen Bee! 2007-10-22 01:30:00 Nayanthara has all the reasons to smile. Her latest film Thulasi has been declared a hit by the trade. This family entertainer like any other Venkatesh film is getting good word-of-mouth and is slowly but surely racing towards becoming a blockbuster in the long run.Added to that Mahesh Babu’s Athidi released this week has not eaten into Thulasi’s business. In fact like all Venkatesh films this one too is a likely to be a late bloomer. One thing is sure that the film will cater to the traditional family audiences, the backbone of a super hit!For Nayanthara, Venkatesh has once again proved to be her lucky mascot, and also enabled her to penetrate down to the B & C audiences. Nayan is proving herself to be a safe bet for big budget Telugu films, as she has the necessary oomph to attract the youth audiences and has emerged the favourite of family audiences with her polished performances.Says a Nayanthara who is in her hometown chilling out for two days with her family: “I am so g Read more:Queen
Public Assumptions On Srija's Issue 2007-10-21 00:41:00 People are assuming in different ways regarding the condition of Srija. Some are saying that she would certainly come back knowing the bad background of Sirish Bharadwaj. Some say that Chiranjeevi is completely helpless. Others say that Srija would live with Sirish secretly some where.We have got number of mails from the public those make different assumptions about Srija's future."She would certainly come back from Sirish. His negative shades would come out only now. Things would settle in favor of Chiranjeevi's family, only when she voluntarily comes back", writes Aparna Varma from LA."Chiranjeevi's family cannot give police complaint, as it's not an elopement issue. It's a clear marriage that was telecasted on TV as well. So, Chiranjeevi's family members cannot go legally. The have to use only the force of fans to know the whereabouts of them if they want to", says Ramakrishna Murthy in Hyderabad."What are the intentions of Sirish in marrying Srija?

What made Chiru accept Sreeja's marriage? 2007-10-21 00:38:00 The Megastar Chiranjeevi has broken his silence. This time for good. He accepted the wedding of his second daughter K Sreeja with a city boy. But the blessing came only after the police caused damage to the reputation of some of the friends of Sreeja's husband Sirish Bharadwaja.And why did Chiranjeevi break his silence and accept the marriage
? According to sources close to him, the film star has no option but to bless the young couple. This will enhance his image in the public. Since the film actor is planning to jump into politics, he needs a fair image.If he does not accept the wedding, his fans will continue with their ire and people will finally get fed up with the film star. So the best way before Chiranjeevi was to silently accept the wedding, bless the couple and allow the dust to settle down. Public memory is too short and they will forget about the episode soon.But Chiranjeevi has emerged a winner in the deal. The police have as usual become a laughing stock because of the ac
Chiranjeevi accepts Srija's Marriage 2007-10-21 00:34:00 Chiranjeevi responded on Srija's marriage saying, "Abhimanula Aaseessuley Sreejaku Sreerama Raksha. Nenu Sreeja pelli gurinchi shock ki guri ayyanu. Thaanu ekkadunna sukhamgaa undaali. Adey nenu, maa kutumba sabhyulu korukunedhi. Nenu Pillala Istalaistalaku Virodhini Kanu". He said only that. So, he accepted the marriage.
Simbu turns to Yoga 2007-10-29 00:55:00 It's not for his upcoming movie, or to make his body more flexible. It's to make him less volatile! Considering the number of bouts he's had with co-stars and other film personnel, the Little Super Star is on his way to winning the Angry Young man of Kollywood title hands down! He's almost always in the news for reasons good and bad. Young blood, one might say, but that just might not help him get away with his outbursts all the time. The recent fiasco that had a certain TV channel's ratings soar, had him in a battle of words with a small screen actor. Just as everyone is wondering who will he have a row with next, there's news that he's taken to yoga and meditation. The young actor feels that his straightforwardness is what is getting him into trouble. Let's hope that the soul-soothing yoga and meditation help him cool off. Read more:turns
Mom shouts at Trisha for unbuttoned tops 2007-10-29 00:44:00 When Trisha
wore that tiny dress to a public function, photographers and onlookers had the time of their lives watching her trying to pull the dress down to look atleast decent when she sat.Probably she didn't like the experience at all because after that, she became a little more conservative about her sense of dressing.But recently, she was in for some big troubles when her mom accompanied her to one of the functions. This time around, some of the buttons of her tops were unbuttoned. Maybe it was carelessness on her part. When photographers began to take pictures of hers, her mother, who was standing a few feet away noticed the unbuttoned state of her dress.She immediately began gesturing angrily to her daughter to use a book to cover the cleavage that she was unknowingly showing. Trisha did what she was told.Afterwards, when her mom got the chance to speak to her, she did give her a long lecture about being more attentive to details like buttoning... source:cinesouth

Shah Rukh Khan Slapped Shankar! 2007-10-29 00:08:00 Don't come to conclusions and imagine the scene. It's almost like a slap for Shankar
. That's not on face but on his ego. Shankar thought to make 'Robo' with Shah Rukh
Khan but that was dropped now. The reason is clearly explained this way with official confirmation.Shah Rukh Khan
after listening to the story of 'Robo' said that there is no proper story line in the film. Then, without explaining in right manner, Shankar arrogantly replied that Rajni Kanth acted in Sivaji without questioning about story. That tickled Shah Rukh Khan and he straight away said, "But I question. And I'm not acting in your film. Good bye". That was like a slap for Shankar.Shah Rukh Khan didn't give appointment to Shankar after that as well. Many are discussing that was a big slap on the ego of Shankar. Arrogance and boasting never pay good returns. Shah Rukh Khan taught that for Shankar in a single liner. It's time for Shankar to introspect. source:greatandhra
Pawan Kalyan's Problem For Chiranjeevi 2007-10-29 00:03:00 Almost all the news sources are saying that there is big rift between Chiranjeevi and Pawan Kalyan. The inside sources say that Chiranjeevi is highly unhappy for the deed of Pawan Kalyan in surrendering the revolver publicly to police. He is more worried for announcing CMPF in wrong time. Pawan did all this without the consent of his brother Chiranjeevi.Digging the past, the people are saying that even in the matter of Uday Kiran, the role of Pawan Kalyan was very big in tarnishing his image to cancel the marriage. It's Pawan Kalyan who objected the marriage in bigger way saying that he would not only give competition for rest of Konidela heroes but also lift away huge property as a jackpot. He has chosen the only way of defaming him by digging his past encounters with other girls. That's one disturbance for Chiranjeevi. Then in Paritala Ravi's case Pawan played a hasty role and brought disturbance for Chiranjeevi. Nandini case is still a burning one. Freshly revolver high-drama als Read more:Problem

I don’t understand stardom: Mahesh 2007-10-28 00:49:00 Enigmatic is the word you are looking for to describe Mahesh
Babu. In an industry that is known for hyperbole be it acting, drama, movies or audiences, he's touched unprecedented heights with his understated ways. Many say he is the next superstar and when you see that some of his so-called flops went on to collect over Rs 14-15 crore, you get an idea of his latent star appeal. Hyderabad Times caught with the star to demystify his reclusive image.Athidi: It is too early to pass a verdict, but I am glad that the movie has opened to fantastic collections, the world over. Personally I rate it as my best performance till date. This was the first time I had to do 7-8 takes before getting it right. The action episodes were shot in very demanding physical conditions and I would end up with a swollen face after the shoot. The movie was shot stylishly and the idea was to come out with something new, and now its up to the audience.Stardom: I do not understand the stardom

Mumaith And Nayana Showing Starry Airs! 2007-10-28 00:44:00 Nayantara has become a big star and showing her starry airs as per the Film Nagar talk. It seems that producers are running for her call sheets although expensive. But she is putting number of conditions while signing. She affirms that she wouldn't come for the promotion of the film in any way and also wouldn't sit in Press Meets. Producers can sign up with her only when they agree for her conditions. It has been happening from recent past.Freshly Mumaith
Khan also started the same. She is also putting number of conditions for producers. As of now Mumaith is being considered the most co-operative actress and hence many offers are being given to her. She is now acting in 'Manga Tayaru Tiffin Center'. She must be following the logic, 'Making hay while sun shines'.But will all the producers endure her conditions! source:greatandhra
Ileana's 'No Comments' For Those 2 Guys 2007-10-28 00:41:00 Ileana feels free to talk about any hero except 2 guys. She simply says 'No Comments
' with serious grimace if asked about them. They are Siddartha and Ravi Krishna.When asked Ileana to say something about the heroes with whom she worked, she felt enthusiastic and shared, "NTR is the very loving guy and I cannot forget the shooting time I had with him during 'Rakhi'. Especially I spent very nice time with him in Pukhet, Thailand. And the man who looks highly jovial is Ravi Teja. I never encountered such a person in my life. He is the best co-star.Prabha is another guy who is good at heart and childish at acts. He wishes everybody around him should be happy. I really enjoyed shooting days with him during 'Munna'.Ram is the guy who keeps on teasing me for fun on phone. How can I forget my first hero? He is so cute and impressive.Mahesh Babu is reserved and balanced all the time. I cannot forget 'Pokiri' shooting days with him.

Mohan Babu's Fan About Chiranjeevi 2007-10-28 00:37:00 Here's what a fan of Mohan Babu and also a film artiste cum mimicry artiste (Goutham SSC fame), Abhinaya Krishna says.I am a very big fan of MOHANBABU and I always supported him.I even supported Mohan Babu when there was a controversy in VAJROTSAVALU.But now when the point is clear that Chiru has not done any mistake and he is undergoing lot of pain, I couldn't stop myself as a human being. I wish no father in the world should face the problem which Chiru is facing now.Chiru would have undergone many mental tensions and he solved it but when a part of the body ditches you then the pain will be more.If some one had given pain to Chiru then he wouldn't have felt so bad but his own blood harmed him this time in the form of daughter.Shirish and Srija say that they love each other and they don't worry about Chiru's image.They want a written statement from Chiru saying he won't harm the couple.In my opinion a child who doesn't care about her dad's respect is a deadbody. So i don't t
Rs 37 Cr Property On Srija! 2007-10-28 00:33:00 This is the information that has come from reliable sources. There is a sum of Rs 37 Cr on the name of Srija in the form of bank balance and deposits. It is obvious that Chiranjeevi didn't play safe by transfering the amount on her name as the girl was becoming major. Now the complete rights on that Rs 37 Cr are vested in the hands of Srija. So it is out of questioning that who is funding Srija-Sirish now. It matters nothing for Srija for the financial muscle she has. But there are certainly some big heads who are directing Srija-Sirish.Lawyer Pinky Anand is very expensive to hire that she charges Rs 1 lakh per hour to talk to the client. That most expensive lady has arranged a place of stay for that new couple in her house. Can Sirish's father who is a Criminal lawyer deal all these things? It doesn't mean that he can influence big lawyers like Pinky Anand just for being a lawyer in Nampally High Court. The brains working on this issue are different from public assumptions, say sou
Why Dasari Not Involving In Chiru's Matter? 2007-10-28 00:31:00 Dasari Narayana Rao is the bigwig in Tollywood and has got the liberty to voluntarily help any movie family. He is the central minister and has got enough of influence in Delhi High Court as well. But why he didn't involve in Chiranjeevi's daughter Srija's case? He can definitely help from behind the scenes by not giving much hype and attention to Srija-Sirish. He can even influence the lawyers there with a mere word. But he has been watching everything as a silent spectator. For Dasari, it is the power and money that matters much than the community, say some sources.On the other hand some others say that Dasari Narayana Rao also had faced some family problems with his eldest son Prabhu and daughter-in-law and knows that one has to settle family disputes personally. So he must be adorning silence for that reason.Or else he must be smiling for all the disturbances in Chiranjeevi's family that may delay or dilute the possibility of emerging a powerful third front in AP. That is some
Ambiguous Statement Brings Confusion 2007-10-28 00:29:00 Both Srija and Sirish are visiting temples in Delhi with security guards. When Sirish was asked who is behind them he said "Look I'm in front of a goddess' temple here. So the goddess is behind me".Srija's fresh statement is bringing lot of ambiguity. She said today that she has the support of her father-in-law and only with his back-up they could go to Delhi seeking help in Delhi High Court and meet Pinky. But a few days back Sirish said that his parents are not happy with the marriage and hence ran away to get married. Even Sirish's father said that he is not welcoming his son's act in a media interview a few days ago. But Srija says her father in law is behind them but no big leader or influential person.What is this ambiguity? What is the truth? Are Srija and Sirish really taking intelligent moves? Only time should answer. source:greatandhra
A father's dilemma-1 2007-10-27 00:41:00 In the picture: Chiranjeevi's daughter Srija with her husband Sirish Bharadwaj. Chiranjeevi is the undisputed king of Telugu cinema and at the age of 52, he continues to rule Tollywood. The megastar who is known for his power-packed performances on screen, made his entry into film land in Manavoori Pandavulu in 1977 after earning a diploma in acting from Chennai Film Institute.Annaya (elder brother), as he is fondly called, has however been in the news for the past couple of months not for his movies. First was the speculation that he would be joining politics, and now over his youngest daughter Srija eloping in true filmi style.Although his daughter has managed to garner a lot of support through the media, Chiru's fans stick by him and say the star can do no wrong.His 150-odd fan clubs across the world have openly expressed their support for the star and say Srija was wrong.

The fans say there is a lot they have to learn from Chiru who has won seven Filmfare best actor awards and also the Filmfare Legendary Award this year.He was also awarded the Padma Bhushan last year for his contribution towards Telugu cinema.

Born on August 22, 1955, to Venkat Rao and Anjani Devi, Chiranjeevi grew up in his native village, Mogalthur in Andhra Pradesh, under the care of his grandparents since his father's job was transferable.Chiranjeevi graduated with a bachelor's degree in commerce and left for Chennai to pursue a career in cost accountancy. He, however, enrolled himself in the Chennai Film Institute.Although his first movie was released in 1977 he got recognition only in 1981, for his role as a snake-charmer in Punnami Nagu. Before his first real break in 1983 in the movie Khaidi, he played a lot of minor parts. Khaidi established Chiru as an action hero.From here onwards there was no looking back and he won his first award for the movie Swayamkrushi in 1987. Apart from action, Chiranjeevi is also a dancing sensation and is considered the best dancer Read more:dilemma
