the success of dookudu has once again proved the box office stamina and popularity of prince mahesh babu. The sreenu vytla directed film has den exceedingly well surpassing all expectations. The duper success of the film has even caught the fans of Mahesh Babu by surprise.

with such big star appeal it is only natural that big companies would want him to promote their products. mahesh babu is already endorsing Uninor, Jose Alukkas, Amrutanjan, a soft drink and many other products. Now many people are queuing up outside his residence to sign him up as their brand ambassador for their products. Among them is a well known watch maker and a car manufacturer.

allu aravind is always a winner in Telugu film circuit. He strives to see the films coming from his camp stay on top for ever and ever. Fact that Geetha Arts has made a permanent residence at Tollywood Box Office, these days releases of ‘Oosaravelli’ and ‘Dookudu’ have brought in a new business strategy taking Telugu cinema potentiality near to Rs.100 Crores. While time will say whether ‘Dookudu’ will touch the Century mark or not but allu aravind is known to have sketched a solid plan to enhance the Power in Pawan Kalyan ‘Panjaa.’

Inner sources say, ‘Panjaa’ might or might not be distributed through Geetha Arts Distribution Agency yet film will take off with a never seen gigantic release which could well set the BO on fire with in first day and first week. Number of screens, ‘Panjaa’ is going to grace in middle of December will be near or above 2000, a number that wasn’t seen or heard earlier. Given allu aravind’s business brain, he is one man who can give answers to 100’s of films like ‘Dookudu’ and ‘Oosaravelli.

Nandamuri heroes like Balakrishna and Junior NTR are always best suitable for powerful and high voltage action scripts. Nevertheless ‘Samara Simha Reddy’ or ‘Simha’ or ‘Simhadri’ have proved that. Of course, Balayya has come back to his terrific form with ‘Simha’ and now it is the turn of Boyapati Srinu to give new acceleration for Junior NTR career with ‘dammu.’

While the Lion look of Balayya in ‘Simha’ is unforgettable, now appearance of Jr. NTR at the audio launch of ‘Mogudu’ says that Boyapati is using the same trick of playing with twirled moustaches. The best quality in this action loving director is he never risks on experiments. What Boyapati knows is to follow a trend. He adds up his own style taking sufficient care in satisfying the masses to fullest. Let us wish that ‘dammu’ be one more peak film for NTR.

The mahesh babu film Dookudu is the winner in the Dassera race. The Jr.NTR starrer film Oosaravelli too opened big but it is clear that it is in no way going to stop the success run of Dookudu. While Dookudu is seen as a family entertainer the film Oosaravelli could not attract the audiences in a big way.

At some theaters screening Oosaravelli the advertisement of mahesh babu for Amrutanjan is being shown during the interval. This may be unintentional but NTR fans feel that this has been done deliberately. Mahesh wants to convey that Oosaravelli is a big boring film and it is giving headache to fans.

Like the festival season, it has been a season of bandhs. Not just in the political theatre but even in the film land. The South Indian Film Chamber of Commerce (SIFCC) has given an indefinite bandh call from October 30 and posted their charter of demands, including wage hike, of film workers in Tamil Nadu and elsewhere

The Telugu Film Industry (TFI) is thinking twice whether or not to join the agitation as it has lost much ground due to the ongoing Telangana agitation.

“Producers have already incurred huge losses. It is a tough year for them. We have to consider their plight as well before deciding on joining the bandh or not”, said Burugupalli Sivarama Krishna, the new President of the Telugu Film Producers Council. Moreover, the Telugu film workers are already unofficially receiving the new higher wages.

Bandhs and workers unrest is something the film industry cannot digest. There has been recently a quarrel over the importing of stunt masters ignoring the locals but things, the buzz says were sorted out.

Normally, Tollywood is hero centric or the big four families’ say prevail. When Movie Artistes Association (MAA) made an issue of heroines not taking membership, how can the Telugu industry not obey SIFCC when it is already its member?

pawan kalyan and Renu Desai’s marital life has become the good time pass subject for media circles to create startling gossips. None knows whether Renu has permanently moved to her mother’s house in Maharashtra or is she temporarily making a stay giving the needful freedom for Pawan to complete his professional commitments at jet speed. On the leeside, it is know that both of them are remaining affectionate, respecting each others sentiments.

The element of financial turmoil in Mega family and Pawan helping Naga Babu to bail out from troubles is the latest talk that is heard to have reached the ears of Power Star. Well, the next moment Pawan burst into a loud laughter questioning his aides on how can Naga Babu can run into a life time bankruptcy with just a loss of below 10 Crore on one of his film? ‘How can Renu and my self get involved into this? Did this make any sense...’ Pawan laughed again non-stop.

sunil is now busy with the shooting for his new film. The film has been titled as Poolarangadu. Isha Chawla is the heroine. The film is being produced by Atchi Reddy and directed by Veerabhadram Choudhary. DSP is the music director.

The shooting is now going on in Warangal. sunil will speak in Telangana accent throughout the film. This is sure to please KCR and co. and also the people of Telangana. Prakash Raj talked in Telangana accent in the Mahesh Babu film Dookudu and it received good response. Poolarangadu is getting ready for release on January 14.

The film dookudu has opened to tremendous collections worldwide. While the film is not in the same big league like Mahesh Babu’s previous blockbuster movies, it is still decent entertainer. SreenuVytla has made a comic entertainer and has given Mahesh Babu a new image – a tough cop with a tender heart and also a soft and lovable hero.

As in many of his films Sreenu Vytla makes the actor imitate a big hero. Mahesh Babu sniffs whiskey and gets all charged up. He then starts boasting and challenges everyone. Mahesh Babu also slaps his thighs in a unique style that has become the trademark of Balakrishna and also mouths a dialogue that goes something like this – choosukundam raa, ekkadaina, eppudaina, … pagalaina… raatraina…nee intidaggaraina etc. etc.

superstar Mahesh Babu plays the role of an IPS officer in the film Dookudu. There is nothing new in this as he had played a cop in Pokiri too. Policemen are often projected in a bad light in many a film. It is only actors like Balakrishna, Ravi Teja, Sai Kumar and even Rajashekar who have played cop roles that elevate the image of the policemen.

Dookudu has made cops proud as Mahesh Babu shows them in a very good light. Mahesh Babu says proudly to the criminals that he is a cop – ‘COP’ and repeats it three times – Police… Police… Police… raising his tone gradually. His dialogue naturally has made every cop feel proud and happy.

Actor manchu vishnu, elder son of veteran actor Mohan Babu, is in news again for the wrong reasons. He was booked in a hit-and-run case on Monday.

The actor's vehicle reportedly hit a motorist on Monday afternoon when on the way to Ramoji Film City. The driver did not stop after hitting the motorist who fell down, and whizzed past.

It caught the attention of another motorist, a youth, who followed the vehicle. Understandably, he was not aware that the vehicle belonged to Vishnu who was also in it.

As the vehicle stopped at the RFC, the youth went up to Vishnu and reportedly picked up an argument. An infuriated aide of the actor beat the youth at this. Hours later, the actor found his name in a complaint against him filed by the youth with the Hayathnagar police. Following this, the police slapped a case against the actor who had been on his way to a film shoot.
