Oosaravelli beats Dookudu hands down!


Labels: Jr NTR,
NTR Jr. movie Oosaravelli is going to be the biggest release ever in Telugu cinema history. Earlier it was Dookudu, which was released in most number of screens across the world. Oosaravelli is going for much wider release and has beaten Dookudu in all the areas in terms of release.

Dookudu got benefitted by releasing in most number of theaters as it recorded the best ever opening in Tollywood history. Now Oosaravelli too follows the same theory and we have to wait and see if it can surpass Dookudu in terms of collections. Oosaravelli is releasing on October 6. This film is directed by Surender Reddy and Tamanna plays the female lead in it. Music is scored by Devi Sri Prasad.

Dookudu rampage continues at box office


Labels: Mahesh Babu,
Mahesh Babu Dookudu continues to rock the Tollywood box office in its second week. Despite huge release, Dookudu is still going with full houses in many centers. The collections have been phenomenal in A centers and good in B and C centers.

Even in the second week, Hyderabad multiplexes are screening maximum shows of Dookudu and most of the shows are being full. Dookudu is all set to receive record collections in the second week too. We have to wait if Oosaravelli arrival slows down this film or not.
 Mahesh Babu is one of the few heroes who can take a hit film to unexpected range. He has done that with Pokiri in the past and he is repeating the same with Dookudu too.

NTR Upset with Yamadonga Spoof in Dookudu


Labels: Jr NTR,
Generally, when a spoof is being made on a movie, it is a courtesy of the director to inform the other director and its hero. Most directors of this era are not following such politeness before using others content. However, our director is already informed about the 'spoof', but only our hero is the 'bakra' here. Confused? Check the story now.

There were many spoofs on Nandamuri Heroes in many of Allari Naresh's flicks to tickle the audiences. While they look healthy on one side, they make a mere mockery on the other side. One of the most applauded such spoof is the imitation of several heroes by MS Narayana in the recent DOOKUDU. Sources revealed that the spoof matter is informed to Rajamouli but not to Jr.NTR. Though there is nothing offensive about the spoof, MS donning the role of Junior in YAMADONGA and the famous 'Puli..' dialogue is making audience go for a laughing riot. But, there is a thing that is paining Junior's fans a lot.
 While Mahesh shouts a wow for all heroes' imitations in the scene, he just goes mute for Junior's dialogue and this is said to be harassing them. Looks like fans are really desperate for OOSARAVELLI to strike back at DOOKUDU as this Dasara bonanza.

NTR Revenge On Ileana


Labels: Ileana, Jr NTR,
Where is Ileana? Why this sexy actress suddenly lost all the charm and is not even seen around in Tollywood? It is only because of one tongue slip! Ileana, who was not so happy with the way Aswini Dutt treated her for Shakti, stated that it was a bad film and she regretted doing it. Although her outrage was against Aswini Dutt, the hero of that film NTR got hurt by her words.

NTR didn't take her words lightly because it was only after Ileana's comments media started to declare that Shakti is a disaster. By then Shakti is still holding its ground at the box office despite bad talk. But Ileana's statement gave the killer punch that Shakti didn't recover forever.
 Hence, NTR Jr. called upon all his friends and associates in the industry and asked them not to cast Ileana in their films. NTR is one of the biggest stars in our industry and nobody could say no to him. Now Ileana's only chance to survive in Tollywood is to get closer to Mahesh and mega family heroes.

Poonam Kaur Bollywood Dreams


Labels: Poonam Kaur,
It is a common sutra that for any actress, Bollywood is their final destination. And this is irrespective of how famous they are in the south. That's one reason why even the likes of Asin, Kajal Agarwal, Trisha were ready to discard their south royalties and become one among the Bollywood beauties. Now, another name has joined the list. She is none other than Poonam Kaur. Though she is a Punjabi, Poonam has settled in Andhra Pradesh and she has been a part of Tollywood since day one of her career. But now, it is heard that even she has begun to focus on the big Bollywood.
 Sources reveal that Poonam has begun getting in touch with her old contacts and those she knows in Mumbai. Buzz is that very soon Poonam would be visiting Mumbai to meet a few people and also made arrangements to be present at few top shot parties of Bollywood circuit. Well, only time will tell how much fruitful all these plans will work for her career.

New Strategy of Releasing Movies


Labels: Bala Krishna, Jr NTR, Mahesh Babu, Nagarjuna,
It seems the Telugu film industry has adopted a new strategy to ward away the threat from dubbing films and at the same time to share the spoils among themselves giving room to everyone to share the revenue.Filmmakers of top heroes, hereafter, it appears have come to an understanding and space their releases accordingly. Earlier, it would be a mad rush of films during festival season with all the top banners and stars vying with each other and share the collections.Trends have now changed. It is spacing and planning that Tollywood is looking for. Dookudu was released with no other top film around that week and the following week as well. After a gap of two weeks, comes the turn of Jr NTR-starrer Oosaravelli.

There would be no interruption for another two weeks, in all probabilities for the next big picture. In between films like Madatha Kaja and the like keep coming and going, no matter about the result.Nandamuri Balakrishna with Sri Rama Rajyam and another film, Ganga The Body guard and a couple of other films are almost ready but will be released after analysiing the situation and taking consent of the bigwigs so that the collections will not be affected and no producer will lose out nor stars get jam logged in the heavy rush of films and comparison comes in to full play. Even film production is, it seems, is programmed in such a way. The big four families try not to clash with each other and carry on the business well.Though there is a secret desire for everyone to score a bigger hit than Pokiri or garner more collections than Magadheera.How far this trend of pausing for release and spacing the films work is something which we have to wait and see.
