While it is a good thing to examine sensational issues, there are times when things tend to get overboard. Something like that was the opinion expressed by many home audiences after they saw the special issue from TV9 Rajinikanth. Apparently, this was about the film ‘Quick Gun Murugun’ which has Rajendra Prasad as the hero. The film has a Reddy character as the villain and this had sparked a mild protest from that community. However, the TV channel has taken this up and blown it out of proportion. Heading this was TV9 Rajinikanth with a forum and he was seen prodding the Kamma and the Reddy community heads for their opinions. Those who have seen it have harshly criticized such programs and say that it is better the channels refrain from such activities.
Before your mind races off to a rather erotic and controversial zone, let us clear the air for you. We are talking about the hot and happening TV anchor Waheeda who is a noted face in the small screen circuit. Now, this hot babe has gone to the silver screen and has been doing roles. Currently, she is busy with a new movie that seems to have caused quite a stir. Aptly titled ‘Oka Varsham Kurisina Raatri’, Wahida is seen indulging in a rather steamy session with the lead actor. Those who have seen it say that she is looking her sexy best in this and it now remains to be seen whether this TV anchor would get into more movies with this seductive role or not.
The noted small screen personality Swapna fondly known as TV9 Swapna has been making news wherever she goes. After having made her mark in the small screen circuit, the news is that TV9 Swapna is said to have joined the course of spiritual guru Jaggi Vasudev. This is called ‘Isha Yoga’ and it also has the beautiful Shriya as an ardent follower. Now, there is news that Swapna has also taken it up and has been experimenting with it. Those who have seen Swapna lately say that she has been seen with a new glow on her face and it looks like the Isha Yoga has been working for her. It looks like Swapna can actually become a brand ambassador for such good things of life.
Dil Raju was the distributor for Yuvatha film in Nizam area . Yuvatha and Kotta Bangaru Lokam have released almost at the same time. Kotta Bangaru Lokam is the Dil Raju's own film. As filmnagar rumors, Dil Raju had ignored Yuvatha promotion and concentrated on his own film Kotta Bangaru Lokam promotion during that time. This made Yuvatha director Parusuram to take revenge in his next film Anjaneyulu by creating a role of a film producer. The producer in the film had to face some satires in the film. The filmnagar rumors says that Parusuram created this role keeping Dil Raju in mind. So this way the director has taken the revenge on Dil Raju?
The super comedian Brahmanandam who has been enthralling the audience with his roles and antics since long on the reel life has now been facing a hitch. Apparently, his much hyped ‘Brahmi 10 lakh Show’ that is being aired on the I-News channel has not been able to generate that sort of humor. Those who have been watching the I-News channel say that Brahmi is not able to appeal. They now take the name of the other veteran Dharmavarapu Subramanyam and say that he has created a good impact with his work. Currently, Dharmavarapu has been doing a quiz show in the SVBC channel. Sources reveal that the chances are high that after completing the contract with Brahmi, the organizers of the show might be looking at roping in Dharmavarapu as the new host. It now remains to be seen whether Brahmi is going to bounce back before that or not.
Telugu TV channels are not coming forward to buy ‘satellite’ rights of the new films. Almost 150 such films are lying unsold now. Usually the filmmakers get not Rs 30 to Rs 40 Lakhs a film.
This will facilitate the producers to meet their last round of expenditure, say, paying the bills of the labs and print charges. After exhausting every pie, small time producers look for this money.
But the channels, which are running into losses, are content with the films they have already bought. They are transmitting the same old films again and again observing the birth days of the heroes.
There was a time when movie making was meant to be an art and only those who possessed the real flair and heart for it went for it. But now, all that has become a farce and the name of the game is money and films have become a sort of career line for a few. It seems that many have been emerging into the industry stating that they have got a good script and also the cast but all they need is a producer with money. Apparently, these chaps are said to be grouping few known people and terming their friends as hero/heroine etc. It is also being said that few of them happen to be software engineers and they are posing to arrive with a ready team. This is said to have been causing a bit of irk amongst the film folks and they are hoping this trend ends quickly. They are feeling that the essence of movie as an art is fading with such individuals.
While it is a good thing to examine sensational issues, there are times when things tend to get overboard. Something like that was the opinion expressed by many home audiences after they saw the special issue from TV9 Rajinikanth.
