The clamour for the deceased Andhra Pradesh leader Dr Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy's son to be made the state chief minister seems to be having an adverse impact on the image of the young MP from Kadapa.

K.V.P. Ramachandra Rao, a close friend and advisor of YSR, was scheduled to meet the Congress president Sonia Gandhi in New Delhi yesterday to discuss the demand for installing Jaganmohan Reddy, 37, as the new chief minister.

But indications are mounting that the party high command's annoyance with pro-Jagan group has reached its peak.

Despite widespread lobbying by Jagan's supporters, indications were rife that the high command was in no mood to oblige them and wants to use the opportunity to re-establish its authority over Andhra Pradesh, which was eroded in the towering presence of YSR during last five years.



In fact, one of the anti-Jagan and anti-YSR groups has reportedly told Gandhi that if she lets go this opportunity to demonstrate her supremacy, she may as well forget running her writ in such a key state.

Party sources said that three senior-most leaders of the party Pranab Mukherjee, Veerappa Moily and Digvijay Singh are likely to arrive here to hold consultations with the leaders of various groups as well as legislators.

There are indications that the party high command was seriously looking at other alternatives including retaining the caretaker Chief Minister K. Rosaiah for a longer duration.

Sources said young age and lack of political experience were the main factors going against Jagan. "He is just 100 days old in politics," said a leader pointing out that YSR's son was elected to Parliament for the first time in May last.

Sources said that the Congress team from Delhi was mandated to persuade Jagan not to insist on chief ministerial position but accept a position in the union cabinet. They were also expected to convince Jagan to propose the name of a leader identified by the high command when the Congress legislature party meets. Rosaiah, for his rich and varied experience and clean image is likely to be the first choice of the high command and was likely to be more acceptable to Jagan group than any other leader.

It is not very often that Salman Khan speaks about his past affairs and when the ex is a certain Aishwarya Bachchan, Salman is known to avoid the conversation. But the actor in a recent television interview spoke about his ex lady love. The actor was quizzed about the reports of him physically abusing Aishwarya when they had been going around with each other. Salman rubbished such rumours and said he was angry but never raised his hand on her.Buzz up!On a lighter note Salman said that when he hits someone he gives it his best shot and had he hit Aishwarya [^], the former Miss World would not have survived. It is quite another story that Aishwarya's next boyfriend Vivek [^] Oberoi had accused Salman of threatening him over the phone. Well all we can say is Salman seems to have some logic in his argument, after all not too many people can take punches from Salman and certainly not our glamour queen Aishwarya.

Produced by Rajasekhar under the banner of Sunrays Entertainments, introducing Raj KS Gopi as director, Sardar Patel, Monisha and others as heroes , Tejam completed all the shooting and post-production formalities recently.Speaking on the occasion, the director said, “We brought out the film with high technical values and in never before locations. The film would reflect the mindset of the current generation youth and would also portray the present conditions in the society. Background score would remain a highlight. Preethi Jhangiani’s item number, chases, Brahmanandam’s comedy would be added attractions.”The producer says, “The audio got a very good response. The first copy is also ready. We will complete the censor formalities soon and are making efforts to release the film in September.”

We hear that Jothika, who wowed audiences with her performance as a deaf and mute girl in Mozhi, was one of the close contenders for the National Award for Best Actress. Noted Malayam director Sibi Malayil, one of the jury members at the 55th National Film Awards for 2007, told a news channel that Jothika was one of the front runners for her performance in Mozhi, along with Meera Jasmine for the Malayalam film Ore Kadal and Umashree for the Kannada film Gulabi Talkies. “She was in contention for the award till the last round, in which Umashree emerged triumphant,” he said.The Radha Mohan-directed Mozhi, which, interestingly, was produced by Prakash Raj (who has won the National Award for Best Actor), was one of Jothika’s big movies in Kollywood before she got married to actor Suriya.

You would think that to maintain her hour-glass figure Katrina Kaif would be watching her diet all the time. But that’s not trueThe actress, who was shooting in London recently, got to spend some quality time with her three sisters living there. “Katrina and her sisters would go and park herself at a Japanese restaurant. They would eat to their hearts content. It became quite a joke on the sets that one place to locate Katrina after pack up was at the Japanese restaurant. She, along with her sisters, would invariably land up going there and relish eating Japanese food,” said a source. Wonder who’s keeping a watch on those calories.

Sonia’s silence is causing undue panic among the ever increasing lobby of Jagan’s supporters. But when she did open her mouth and set in place a plan to send a 4-member high-powered panel to Hyderabad on the 10th, the choice of the panel’s head has caused further panic in the ranks of pro-Jagan supporters. The man heading the panel is seasoned negotiator Pranab Mukherjee.The wily congressman from West Bengal is known to negotiate his way from the least expected angles of any given problem. The supporters in Hyderabad are now sure that Jagan’s chances are receding by the day and that Pranab has been sent to convince them that Jagan might not be a suitable option now. It is interesting to note that the support for Y S Jagan has increased manifold after the Kadapa MP appealed to his supporters, late last week, to be silent and abide by high command’s wishes. Either way the curtain on the choice of CM will most likely fall on 10th September. But the scenes behind will continue for a long time to come.

The former home minister, Mr K. Jana Reddy, joined the “Jagan as Chief Minister” campaign on Tuesday.
The media had hitherto reported that Mr Jana Reddy was not interested in projecting anyone as a Chief Ministerial candidate as he wanted to support a nominee chosen by the party high command.
Mr Jana Reddy called on Mr Jagan Mohan Reddy and his mother Vijayalakshmi on Tuesday at the late chief minister’s residence in Begumpet. He handed over a letter of support to request the high command to choose Mr Jagan Mohan Reddy as the next Chief Minister.
Another former minister, Mr J.C. Diwakar Reddy, also gave his letter of support to Mr Jagan.
With this, 152 out of the 154 Congress MLAs are supporting Mr Jagan Mohan Reddy. The former minister and Sanathnagar MLA, Mr M. Shashidhar Reddy and the Khairatabad MLA, Mr P. Vishnuvardhan Reddy have not signed any letter so far supporting Mr Jagan Mohan.
Meanwhile, the APSRTC chairman and former minister, Mr M. Sathyanarayana Rao, issued a statement urging the party high command to select Mr Jagan Mohan for the top post.
‘With all my seniority and experience in the party for over five decades I have come to a conclusion that in this hour of crisis, the Congress high command should nominate Mr Jagan Mohan as the Chief Minister,” he said.

It was with great hype and hoopla that the glowing beauty Bhoomika opened the film magazine ‘Mayanagar’ along with her ‘Yoga Guru’ husband Bharat Thakur. Some also recall her statement during the opening when she said that she is aware of the competition and is positive that she would be successful.
Unfortunately, that dream didn’t last long as reports are confirming that ‘Mayanagar’ has been closed. However, all payments to employees and other units are said to be cleared without any outstanding. It is heard that the losses due to the magazine was running high for Bhoomika and she could not take it further like this.
So for now, it looks like Bhoomika is going to get back to what she does best- acting. Let us hope that she manages to find success on the silver screen as that has not been happening either.

Namitha is one actress who has steered clear of controversy and not into the numbers game. She had pinned her hopes on Indira Vizha but the relative failure of the movie has put her under some pressure. And with all the hype before the release of Jaganmohini, Namitha was understandably guarded in her optimism.“I see the bilingual Jaganmohini as a turning point in my career. It would do a lot good to my career in Tamil and Telugu. I always put in my best effort but it was one notch higher in Jaganmohini. I am conscious of the inevitable comparison with Jayamalini, but did not let the pressure factor play in my mind,” says Namitha of the trying times while shooting at the Indian Ocean when the water was anything but calm.On her reluctance to attend the film related functions – Namitha was conspicuously absent at the audio launch of Azhagana Ponnu – Namitha said she was just recouping from a bout of illness.

Recently Rajasekhar and Jeevitha announced the title Lokanayakudu for a movie based on YSR's life. Looks like they have changed the title to Aachuki. The person who could be directing it is Surya Kiran whose last film in Telugu was Raju Bhai. Aachuki means the whereabouts and it could be the situation that developed in the last twenty four hours when the CM went missing with his staff and pilots at Nallamalla forests. However Surya Kiran denies the relation of the title with the subject and says it has nothing to do with.Meanwhile Surya Kiran's 'Chapter Six' is getting ready. The cast and crew is yet to be finalised whereas the story work is done

Normally heroines don't get into a bikini in their first few films. They wait for their career to take off, become happening and when the steam runs out, and one feels they have done all kinds of roles or run out of characters, they get into a bikini or begin to expose to get noticed and bag films. That is what happened in Charmme's case.But Vimala Raman is relatively a new entrant. After her disastrous debut in Abaddam, she couldn't make up much in the recent Varun Sandesh starrer Evaraina Epudaina. There was a talk that she looked older to the hero.Now the third film is currently on in which she is said to be appearing in a bikini. This Tarun and Vimala Raman starrer is being directed by VN Aditya. The film supposedly deals with the problems that youth face in the software field.A song is currently being shot in Hyderabad and then they'll move to Srilanka to shoot the remaining two songs. Gogineni Srinivas and Raju Harwani are the producers

It is known news that the film ‘Leader’ was supposed to be the next venture from the maverick movie maker Sekhar Kammula. The title ‘Leader’ has already been registered by someone else and they were unwilling to part with it since long back. Despite number of requests they didn’t give away the title.
So now, Kammula and his team have decided to title the film as ‘AVM Vaari Leader’ However, what is going to happen and the AVM Vaari will appear in tiny letters while Leader would be seen in the larger size. It seems the registration of title was done for the entire phrase.
The shooting of the film is said to be nearing the end and soon the post production work will begin. This marks the debut of Daggubati Rana, grandson of D Rama Naidu while three beauties – Priya Anand, Richa Gangopadhyay and Hari Priya would be the ladies for him.

It was seen as a rather emotional statement, the film couple of angry man Rajasekhar and his wife Jeevitha made an announcement that they would be coming up with a film based on the life of the late Y S Rajasekhar Reddy. This has been titled ‘Lokanayakudu’.
Now, there is news that Rajasekhar will be playing the lead role and it is being revealed that he would do a dual role, that of YSR himself and Y S Jagan. Currently, Rajasekhar is waiting to see if Jagan will become CM so that he can arrange the script accordingly.
The ground work is said to be on regarding this project and the couple is said to be looking at making this a tribute to the dynamic YSR. Let us hope that this venture gets them the much needed hit and recognition that they have been trying so far.

Till date, Dil Raju has been known as the man with the golden hand but it looks like though he has a golden hand, those who are associating with him might just end up with an iron hand and nothing more. Something like that is currently said to be the case with the new venture ‘Josh’.
The industry sources reveal that the budget for the film is Rs 10 crores and Dil Raju is said to have sold the same for Rs 23 crores to the distributors. Now, he has also reportedly returned the Rs 3 crores as part of the refundable deposit in case of the film’s poor performance.
That way, Dil Raju is said to have made a straight Rs10 crores while the distributors who have taken from him are having sleepless nights over ‘Josh’. Many say that ‘Josh’ will take away their ‘Hosh’ (consciousness) and in a way they are said to be skeptical now to deal with Dil Raju.

Annapoorna Studios in Hyderabad has been the venue for the formal launch of the film Deshadrohi. The film is said to be of the patriotic genre.

Deshadrohi is being produced by G V H Prasad and it is heard from the unit members that they have been seeing a much slimmer and probably fitter Namitha in the police uniform. The hot girl is said to have gone down on her weight considerably and has cut down her flab by working out and following diet procedures. Before that, Namitha would be arriving with her other venture ‘Jaganmohini’.

There is news that the milk white beauty Tamannah would be playing a role in a Malayalam film. The film has been titled Campus Days. It is directed by Prakash Kashinath and it is heard that Tamannah is playing a part in the film. But what remains a secret is whether she is playing a full length role or a cameo. However, her peppy presence has pepped up the people of Kerala as well. Sources close to the unit say that the locals at the place of shooting are really excited at seeing her. Currently, Tamannah is a sensation in the Kollywood circles and she has been coming up with some of the biggest stars in the film circuit.

Daggubati Rana is the grandson of famous producer D Ramanaidu who is known as the movie Moghul. It is known news that he is making his debut in Tollywood and is currently busy with the shooting. According to sources, the leading ladies have also been decided for the movie and they are causing a wave.

This flick is being directed by Sekhar Kammula and it will be interesting to see how the three beauties will light up the screen.

Asin’s only release till date may have been Ghajini, but the audience hasn’t forgotten the gorgeous galIn fact, just after her first movie, people were comparing her to Bollywood diva Sridevi. According to industry folks, Asin did not only resemble Sridevi, but even her mannerisms were similar.

According to preliminary reports emerging there are indications that the ill-fated chopper blew up much before it hit a hillock. It is also clear now that the chopper did not hit any tree or rock formation and lose control. In fact according to ATC Chennai & Shamshabad there was a full 18-minutes gap from the time the chopper lost radio contact and the time it crashed.This time lapse was determined after the watches found on the dead bodies. Aviation experts are also stating that even in the case of a lightning strike it is highly impossible for a chopper to be blown up into smithereens as was the case with the Bell. The needle of suspicion is pointing to the possibility of the chopper being ripped apart in an explosion. A loose screw on the rotor blades is also being examined. Investigators were aghast at the poor security in Begumpet airport and pointed out that easy access inside was possible from 4 points in the perimeter and any intruder could walk up to 60 metres before being intercepted by a security guard.

The APCC chief, D Srinivas, who has been waiting for an opportunity to occupy the Chief Minister’s post for over a decade, received a jolt right from his son.D Sanjay, son of the APCC chief, on Tuesday justified the public demand to make Y S Jaganmohan Reddy as the next Chief Minister. He further said Jagan has all the qualities to succeed Dr Rajasekhar Reddy. Sanjay also recalled that Dr Rajasekhar Reddy had become the APCC chief in a much younger age. He brushed aside the objections like lack of experience for Jagan and said the experience leaders would stand by him to run the administration. Sanjay’s remarks have almost closed the doors for DS to stake his claims for the top seat. DS aspired for the post in 2004 elections, but the AICC leadership had refused to give him the chance ignoring the sacrifice and hardwork done by Dr Rajasekhar Reddy. Even in the 1999 elections too, besides DS, the then CLP leader, P Janardhana Reddy, have staked claims for the Chief Minister post. However, the party lost the elections and even PJR was defeated at Khairatabad. It was in this election, Dr Rajasekhar Reddy, became the CLP leader and thus laid the road to greater success in the subsequent elections.

The State Congress leaders have finally left the issue to the AICC president Sonia Gandhi. As expected, the leaders left the selection of successor to late chief minister, Dr Y S Rajasekhar Reddy, to the party high command. The Rajya Sabha member, K V P Ramachandra Rao, told media persons in Delhi that the issue has been left to the party chief, Sonia Gandhi. He said the party would take a decision on the issue. He also met the party leaders, some of the Ministers, legislators and MPs from the State who have been camping in Delhi to mount pressure on the high command in favour of Kadapa MP, Y S Jaganmohan Reddy. Meanwhile, the AICC secretary, Union Minister and incharge of Andhra Pradesh, Veerappa Moily, said that the party would start exercise on the selection of next chief minister only after the completion of the mourning days. He said the party high command did not invite any leaders from the State to meet the leadership. However, he said some of the leaders from the State were meeting the top leaders and expressing their views on the successor to the late chief minister.

The legendary Amitabh Bachchan will now be seen in the world famous reality show 'Bigg Boss' (Season 3), that will get kick started on 'Colors' channel from the month of October. Contrary to what the whole world thought, Big B will not be in as a participant, but as a 'Pop philosopher'!
Contrary to what the whole world thought, Big B will not be in as a participant, but as a 'Pop philosopher'! What will be really interesting is to see Amitabh yielding the spotlight again, after the famous 'Kaun Banega Crorepati', which was on Star Plus. As Rajesh Kamat (CEO of Colors) rightly puts it that they chose Big B, because, they needed to take the 'Bigg Boss' show to another level. At the same time, Kamat was candid enough to confess that if Big B hadn't agreed to do this show, they would have surely scrapped the very thought of the 'Pop Philosopher' on the show.

The 50+ young hero Nagarajuna is the dream boy of many teenage girls, Nag maintains his physique to appear young and energetic even after 50+.

Now that the era of YSR is over, the time has come to look at who can be the rightful successor for his chair. Right now, most of the fingers are pointing towards his son Y S Jagan but then there are those who are not too happy with it. Apparently, Jagan is now being compared to Rajiv Gandhi and the legendary N T Rama Rao and those who are not for his candidature say that he is too young and politically inexperienced.Well, those who are supporting Jagan say that even greats like Rajiv Gandhi and NTR have not been experienced when they actually became Chief Minister or Prime Minister respectively. The analysts say that the fundamental for taking up a key position is the public support and the ability to handle the administration in a good way. Though Jagan has been off the screen while YS was around, it is said that he had closely followed the movements of his father and has got a fair amount of idea.Also, when folks like NTR and Rajiv Gandhi did not have any credentials except the public support, many have now been asking as to what is stopping Jagan from becoming the chief minister. Though the amount of opposition seems to be minimal, YSR has been able to keep the Congress party under one roof. So the coming weeks will reveal the correct position and how many will accept Jagan as the Chief Minister.

At 55th National Film Awards, Telugu films were given complete miss. Not a single award was given to a Telugu movie. Apart from complete snub at mainstream awards, even in the category of regional best film, no film was chosen from Telugu although in each of Bengali, Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada, Marathi, Hindi and in English a best film was chosen. The following films are nominated in the feature film category from Telugu ..Happy Days, Mee Shreyobhilashi, Amulyam, O Chinnari KorikaAnd none of them was chosen for any other award. When asked about it, Jury Chairperson Sai Paranjape said no Telugu film has standards in content wise. “Telugu films are being made lavishly but no film has substance to consider for an award,” she lamented.

The re-swearing-in ceremony of Rosaiah Cabinet would have become controversial but for the timely intervention of the high command and of course, K V P Ramachandra Rao, advisor to late CM Y S Rajasekhara Reddy.
In the morning, a few ministers expressed their reluctance to be sworn in, as they wanted Kadapa MP Y S Jaganmohan Reddy to be declared the Chief Minister. “I don’t feel like being a minister without YSR. I wish Jagan takes over as the Chief Minister,” minister D K Aruna said. Others like Jupalli Krishna Rao, Konda Surekha, Ahmedulla and P Ramachandra Reddy also expressed similar opinion. This led to speculations that some of them might abstain from swearing-in.
However, the situation changed by evening. The Congress high command sent a message to all the ministers through late Rajasekhara Reddy’s advisor K V P Ramachandra Rao that they should take oath. Minutes before the swearing in ceremony, KVP held a meeting of all the ministers at his residence and told them that abstaining would send wrong signals to the party cadres and that it amounted to defying the party directive.

I would not work with Vivek anyway," the 25-year-old actor told reporters here when asked about the actor.

However, she hurriedly added that she takes her own decisions and denied that they were influenced by Salman.

An international pizza chain has introduced a size zero pizza and implied that it is inspired by Kareena Kapoor, the Bollywood diva with the most fashionable size on her. Kareena, who was out of the country till five days ago, wasn’t even aware of this latest ‘tribute’ to her till sister Karisma Kapoor, a Delhiite, called in to tell her that her friends were all tripping over the size zero pizza. Kareena has been a pizza fan for the longest time. A source reveals how the actress’ mother had flown to the outdoor schedule of a film carrying pizzas for her from Mumbai because she wasn’t getting it locally. “I love Italian food,’’ says Bebo. “I must eat pizza at least twice a week; and yes, I’m flattered that a pizza has been named after me.’’ But, she added, “Honestly speaking, I’m no longer a size zero. I’m slightly rounded because I need to be that way for my role in Karan Johar’s Hindi version of Step Mom.” Incidentally, the size zero pizza is a thin crust affair with healthy vegetable toppings and some low-fat cheese. “It’s a misconception that cheese is unhealthy,’’ argues Bebo. “My dietician has put me on a cheese diet for the longest time. Cheese has the right fat percentage required for the body and if eaten right, it can be advantageous rather than detrimental.’’

Music composer Devi Sri Prasad plans to come out with a pop album in Tamil and Telugunext year. Harping on the importance of words in songs, Prasad said it is a misconception that the composer can take liberties with the words, so long as the song is new. "I am not for thrusting meaningless words which are not easy on the ears on the audience," said the energetic Prasad.On Chiyan Vikram rendering four numbers in Kanthaswamy, Prasad it was not originally planned. "I felt Vikram's voice went well with the mood of the film and it had the endorsement of producer Thanu. The idea always is to have new voices for my movies," said Prasad about this impulsive decision.Prasad has his hands full in Tamil, he is through with Kutty and three more songs are still to be composed for Singam. There are the two big ones in Telugu: Nammo Venkatesa starring Venkatesh-Trisha and an untitled venture pitting Junior NTR opposite Nayantara.

The Matrix star Keanu Reeves will play Rama in an upcoming movie titled Hanuman, accordingGary Oldman (Nil by Mouth) will reportedly play Ravana, while Aamir Khan (Lagaan) has supposedly been approached to play lead Hanuman.Search is still on to find an international face to play Sita in this movie reportedly being directed by Chuck Russell (The Mask) and produced by Uru Patel (Cyborg 2).Shooting is reportedly expected to start towards the end of this year in Rajasthan (India), while the rest will be made in Hollywood studios.However, the film reports have let Hindus in a fix.Acclaimed Hindu statesman Rajan Zed, in a statement in Nevada (USA), said that if makers of proposed movie “Hanuman” intended to base the storyline on epic Ramayana, make references to it, or portray Hindu gods/goddesses in the movie, they would urge the makers to stay true to the story and the spirit of the timeless epic and other Hindu scriptures.Zed, who is president of Universal Society of Hinduism, further said that Ramayana was a highly revered scripture of Hinduism. Hollywood was welcome to make a movie about Ramayana but the final product should be the true depiction of it and not a fantasized or a re-imagined version to fit the Hollywood machine, which was likely to hurt the Hindu sentiments. Moreover, as Hinduism was largely misunderstood outside India, the distortion would add to the confusion. Hinduism was the oldest and third largest religion of the world with about one billion adherents and a rich philosophical thought and it should not be taken lightly.Zed further said that Ramayana was an integral part of Hinduism and was held in such reverence that Hindus believed that simply reading/hearing of it showered blessings upon the reader/listener. Rama, the hero of Ramayana, was incarnation of Lord Vishnu, and was worshipped by Hindus.Ramayana, an ancient Sanskrit scripture, consists of 24,000 stanzas, explores various themes, including human existence, concept of dharma, etc
