Taapsee Reveals About Her Glam Quotient In 'Mogudu'

Ever since the posters and first look of the film ‘Mogudu’ were unveiled, the entire focus has been on only one person. That is Taapsee, the leading lady. Thanks to her wild sex appeal and a naturally voluptuous oomph, many have gone crazy. However, the pretty girl shared a truth about all this.
 
Taapsee reportedly revealed that it was only in one sensuous song which goes ‘Kaavaali…kaavaali..’ that she has worn those netted saris. She added that it is about a wife’s heart and how she wants her husband to be. The wavy haired beauty reiterated that she wore only Pattu Saris, Salwars or Churidars in the rest of the film.
 
As for the posters, Taapsee maintained that it is the discretion of the producers as to which pictures come out. While she stated that the song was canned aesthetically, Taapsee reiterated that she is not a glamorous person in the movie in the film.

Talk On 'Srirama Rajyam' Balayya Looks

Nandamuri Balakrishna will soon be seen in one of his prized possession roles, that of Lord Rama. All this is happening through the film ‘Srirama Rajyam’. Recently, the stills from the picture were revealed and Balayya’s first look as Lord Rama was revealed while Nayantara revealed herself as Goddess Seeta.
 
The talk among the cine folks is “Ramudu means N T Rama Rao. This got fixed by the people. In few films where he donned the divine role, he looked physically fit as well. But during Rath Yatra the BJP people came up with a new picture of Lord Rama who was muscular and sharp looking, that created a very strong impression on the people.”
 
They add “So, those comparisons are coming into picture when looking at Balayya. As such, he is not fitting the physical standards but the divinity angle is very good. Anyways, more than how he suits the character, it is the content in the film which is important. If that works ‘Srirama Rajyam’ will become hit.”

Producer's Fitting To Siddhu

When it comes to Siddarth, there is no doubt that he is a bundle of talent and has a very charming presence onscreen. However, it appears that there is a shade of grey once he is off the screen. Apparently, the actor fails to realize his true market value given the results of his past few films.
 
Anyways, a talk making rounds in filmnagar is that Sidz had quoted a whopping Rs 4 crores as remuneration for his project with director Nandini Reddy being produced by Bellamkonda Suresh. However, it is heard that Bellamkonda was cheesed off by hearing that and literally walked out. But then, the update is that Sidz reduced his figure and settled for Rs 1.25 crores.
 
Inside talk is that Siddarth had no qualms in quoting the hiked fee. Sources say it was due to the intervention of a big producer that mediating happened and Sidz was offered Rs 1.25 crores along with overseas rights. The shooting will commence soon.
 
The cine folks who heard this also add “Siddarth did something similar with ‘Oh My Friend’ and took the overseas rights along with remuneration. However, he had to give it away to producer Dil Raju for around Rs 70 lakhs. Still, he is busy publicizing that Dil Raju was so impressed that he bought back the overseas rights.”

'Ra.One' Final Report From BO Experts

The much hyped and most aggressively promoted film ‘Ra.One’ came as a Diwali treat but then it lacked the fizz to explode at the box office. Instead, it became a topic of divided talk. One group revealed that it has got Rs 86 crores in 5 days which is matching ‘Bodyguard’s collections.
 
Another trade analyst mentioned that sub-distributors will suffer across India and only Eros International will break even. The 3D format is given thumbs down. Comparison with ‘Bodyguard’ is pinned down since ‘Ra.One’ released in 1000 screens more, budget was thrice and has the 3D advantage.
 
Reports say that Nizam territory was sold for Rs 7.5 crores but distributor’s loss is Rs 2 crores. CI territory was sold for Rs 3.15 crores but collections will not exceed more than Rs 2.5 crores. Rajasthan was sold for Rs 5 crores but Rs 1 crore loss is given. The east circuit which has Bengal, Bihar, Assam, Orissa was given away for Rs 7 crores but distributors suffered Rs 2 crores loss.
 
Even multiplex sources say that 40% occupancy was recorded on Sunday while it came to 20% on Monday. The 3D format was not impressive. For now, they have no choice but to keep the movie going till the other biggie ‘Rockstar’ arrives.

Ram Charan Didn't Learn 'D' From Chiru

Balakrishna said, "Recently a young Telugu hero said that there is lack of talent in Telugu film industry which is unfortunate. I directly warned him asking him to shut his mouth. He should not speak without knowing the history of Telugu cinema".

Indeed, it is clear indication that he implied Ram Charan who spoke in 7th Sense audio release praising Tamil circuit and putting down the Telugu actors' talent.

On the other hand, Ram Charan is coming into news for wrong reason. Recently, he also attacked Dasari Narayana Rao. When Dasari said that Telugu heroines are not attending award functions, Ram Charan tweeted in support of heroines stating, "So called great directors are now confined to only speeches and lectures on stages. It is sad that they can't move anything but their mouth."

Many have condemned this as Ram Charan is too young to use such expression on Dasari.

We have to see where this new Balakrishna-Ramcharan feud ends. TV channels are roaring with this issue at present. Many are saying that Ram Charan learnt dance from his dad but didn’t learn the ‘diplomacy’ in speech to be in good books of public and media.

Heroine Navels Vs Belly Buttons

Fashion is the name of the game when it comes to cinema industry and any new style statement comes from the heroes and heroines. Usually, it is the actresses who adopt the latest styles. However, mixed reactions are coming towards one such act. It is the belly button fashion.

Apparently, many are saying that heroines look good without the belly buttons on as an original navel is the true form of a woman's sex appeal. Though there are times when belly buttons bring added glamour, most of them say that the natural navel is visually appealing than covering it with belly buttons.

However, there are few style experts who say "Not all heroines have the appealing type of navels. Some are awkward so in order to cover that, the belly buttons are used. Any day, an actress in the most natural form will tend to look the best to the audience."

The cine folks say "If Ravi Teja is known for his sharp sense of humour and high energy levels, Rajendra Prasad is known for his subtle comedy but very witty dialogues. Though the title sounds like an action packed treat, we are hoping both these talented actors will deliver some nice laughs to the audience." We hope the same too.

Breakup with BF turns lucky for heroine

Usually, a breakup with a loved one is a painful experience for anyone. However, there are times when few individuals tend to get blessed with lady luck as soon as they breakup. Whether it is to compensate for their loss or anything, the results sure are exciting. The cine folks are now giving one example for that.

Apparently, there was a strong grapevine that Varun Sandesh had a very hot affair going on with Shraddha Das. However, this was followed by the talk that they Breakup,  But call it the stroke of destiny or whatever, there has been a sudden boom in Shraddha's career.

There is also news that Shraddha is in talks with a team from Bollywood and she is likely to sign another Hindi movie. Way to go Shraddha!!

Shriya jealous of Trisha

Shriya and Trisha started off their career almost at the same time. Shriya's first film in Tamil is Trisha's first in Telugu (Nee Manasu Naaku Telusu). In Eight years, Trisha and Shriya reached to the top in various languages and made so much money in film industry.

Shriya's career has almost come to a halt and Trisha is still riding high. She is even doing films with young heroes like junior NTR now. Shriya is finding it hard to bag a chance opposite senior heroes too. Obviously Trisha's luck envy Shriya, who is still the best and hot looking woman among the two.

Trisha luckily bagged NTR's Dammu and Shriya's bad luck has been haunting her since she did an item song opposite comedian Vadivelu. On the other hand Trisha learned from Shriya's mistakes and stayed away from such silly mistakes. She is now reaping the benefits of being so

Sensible Director keeps check to Dil Raju

Ace director Sekhar Kammula is on a mission to encash as much as he can with his upcoming film. He is arriving this time with another youth full entertainer 'Life Is Beautiful', which has been produced on his home banner 'Amigos Creations Pvt Ltd' and he is planning to release the film on his own.

Sekhar Kammula had become a hotshot director after the release of 'Happy Days'. Although, Sekhar entered into the big league with that film, he still regrets for selling the entire distribution rights of 'Happy Days' to producer Dil Raju before the release with just little profit. We all knew, what a sensation that film has created at that time. 'Happy Days' turned out to be one of the highest grosser of year 2007 and Dil Raju made good money with the film. On the other hand Sekhar has to satisfy with just around Rs 50 lakhs profit, though he deserved more.

However, the top director is not gonna repeat the same mistake again. Though there were many takers for the film, Sekhar Kammula has decided to distribute the film on his own, orelse sell it for a woofing amount. 'Life Is Beautiful' is about positivity, friendship and love among the youngsters and Sekhar would be introducing some new faces to the Industry. This film is slated to release during Sankranthi 2012.

Amala's Date problems

Sensuous beauty Amala Paul('Nanna' fame) seems to be a strong contender to bag the title 'controversy's favourite child'. The actress has been news for all the wrong reasons these days, which made her more popular among the current crop of heroines.

First it was her alleged affair with 'Nanna' director Vijay. They were spotted together at the public events and even went for a test drive in the director's high-end car giving strength to the rumors. Secondly, Amala's inability to provide call sheets for the films she has already signed.

Currently, She has four films(Naga Chaitanya's Bezawada, Siddharth's Bi-lingual, Linguswamy's film with Madhavan and Arya, another Tamil film) in her hand at the moment. The dates she has allotted for these films were clashing with one another, to make things worse. Amala has walked out of Aishwarya Rajinikanth's directorial debut '3', just because of date issues. Let's wish all these issues gets sorted soon, to ensure a smooth release of these films!
