Shah Rukh plans to sell Knight Riders



After dropping "Kolkata" from Indian Premier League team Kolkata Knight Riders, actor Shah Rukh Khan has started discussions with Nokia, Sahara, the Anil Ambani group, and several other companies to sell the team he bought just over a year ago for Rs 300 crore (Rs 3 billion), and exit the business. According to sources in Red Chillies Entertainment, KKR's holding company, "Shah Rukh Khan has been trying to sell a stake in KKR for some time now. But since most companies he approached also wanted management control, Khan is now talking to Nokia, Sahara, Anil Ambani and others to sell his entire shareholding."
 
Khan's public relations officer, however, said she would not be able to confirm the development because she had not met the actor. None of those who have reportedly been approached confirmed the development. Sahara India's communications director Abhijit Sarkar said: "We have not been approached by Shah Rukh Khan yet. But if he does, we would be happy to buy the team." D Shivakumar, vice-president and managing director (markets), Nokia India, sent a text message saying: "Shah Rukh Khan will keep the team."
 
A Reliance Communications spokesperson declined to comment. "A lot of people negotiate with Anil Ambani. I cannot comment unless there is something concrete on table." According to the Red Chillies official, Khan wants to exit, owing to the team's poor performance -- so far the team has won only one rain-curtailed game under the Duckworth Lewis method--and rising costs.  "If the Board for Control of Cricket in India does not increase the number of teams for next year, Khan could get double what he paid," said the Red Chillies official. Khan is supposed to pay Rs 30 crore (Rs 300 million) per year for the next 10 years. The total annual cost for the team is about Rs 75 crore (Rs 750 million).
 
Khan had earlier said that KKR was easily the most successful IPL franchise, making a Rs 13 crore (Rs 130 million) profit last year. However, his costs trebled last year owing to interventions from the Kolkata Municipal Corporation and Cricket Association of Bengal.  According to initial calculations, Red Chillies had to pay Rs 90 lakhs (Rs 9 million) per match and was supposed to earn Rs 3 crore if all stadium tickets were sold at Eden Gardens. Red Chillies had to pay Rs 20 lakhs (Rs 2 million) to the police and municipal tax of Rs 500,000. So its expenses per match would have been over Rs 1 crore (Rs 10 million). But this figure had trebled.
 
Last year, however, Kolkata Police demanded Rs 2 crore as security fees, against Rs 50 lakhs (Rs 5 million) that the organisers of the IPL offered. Then, the Kolkata Municipal Corporation demanded Rs 25 lakhs (Rs 2.5 million) from Red Chillies as amusement tax for holding IPL matches at Eden Gardens. To settle the dispute between Kolkata Police and the IPL organisers over the cost of security arrangements at Eden Gardens, Red Chillies Entertainment had to agree to pay Rs 75 lakhs (Rs 7.5 million) as security fees.

Deepika approached for Arundhati?

Baiju NT [April 23, 2009, 2:17:49 PM] Bollywood model-turned-actress Deepika Padukone has been reportedly approached to don the title role in the Hindi remake of Tollywood blockbuster Arundhati (Arundhathee in Tamil). The discussions are on, but nothing has been finalized yet!
Earlier, the makers had approached Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi actress Anushka Sharma, who was later dropped, since she was still under contract with her mentor Yash Raj.
After Anushka Sharma, another name considered for the role was Anushka, the original heroine of Arundhati. Considering that Anushka is an unknown face in Bollywood, the makers decided to opt for a more popular young actress in Bollywood. That's is how Deepika came into the scene.
Some sources indicate that Kajol Devgan and Rani Mukherjee were also considered for the title role, while Amitabh Bachchan is reportedly being approached to play the character enacted by Sayaji Shinde in Telugu. Meanwhile, it is confirmed that Sonu Sood, who played the main antagonist in Telugu, will repeat the same part in Hindi as well.
M. Shyam Prasad Reddy, producer of the Telugu version, has decided to remake the film in Hindi, though many producers, including Ghajini’s Madhu Mantena, were vying for the Hindi remake rights. Remake expert Priyadarshan was initially approached to direct Arundhathi in Hindi, but Priyan apparently has no time to spare at such short notice.

When the shooting of this film is completed and will be ready for release the film “Magadheera” with Ram Charan will also be ready for release. After the release of that film she will become a star heroine this would become a plus for our film says Dasarath.

Jr. NTR its time for you to respect NTR not TDP*



Press Note


The statements of Jr. NTR are too inspiring to raise a doubt whether TDP party is itself doing prostitution having Maha Kutami and its Rs. 2000 scheme or which party is caring for the household need.

The comments and allegations raised by Jr. NTR, is making him and his party no where. He is a kid in politics, he has to concentrate on his career, Nara Chandra Babu Naidu is an opportunist and he is using the family of  NTR.

Junior NTR look and turn back and check on yourself and your family, do you know how much that takes for your household ration, if you know you won’t raise such allegations and do you know who killed your grand father.

These are politics and please take care of your career rather than taking care of your wood bee uncle Chandra Babu Naidu., do you know is he really your Uncle. Let him accept it first.

Dude its enough take rest- do not make us open our mouth, you are getting tensed being on bed,  we will pray for your speedy recovery, that’s what Praja Rajyam prays for you, on the NRIs front TDP is no where globally now. NRI Praja Rajyam Party warns you and your TDP cadres not to come with such statements or else you will have to live on the monthly ration given by our praja rajyam party.

*Srinivasa Manapragada- *

*Vice President and Official Spokesman- Pravasa Chiranjeevi Organization –
NRI Praja Rajyam Party*
 

We all work for one cause, Chiru family



This may be the first election he is fighting, but if Praja Rajyam chief Chiranjeevi is a confident man, it’s because of the solid support system his family offers him. They idolise him, have tremendous faith in his abilities and have all come together like an army that’s called to war, geared up to fight for him. From Chiranjeevi’s producer brother-in-law, Allu Aravind, to Aravind’s son and film actor, Allu Arjun, to his own son, daughters, wife and extended family members, everyone is now sweating blood for the success of the Praja Rajyam. Even his younger daughter Srija, who he had a fallout with following her marriage, is welcomed back in the fold and is working towards her dad’s victory.
 
Allu Aravind, considered the driving force behind Chiru’s political plunge, has been playing a key role in the party ever since its inception. And since canvassing for the elections have begun, Aravind hasn’t left Chiru’s side even for a minute. “Though our bodies are different, our soul is one. I love him a lot,” says Aravind, rather dramatically. The megastar’s two actor brothers, Nagendra Babu and Pavan Kalyan, are his other pillars of support. The duo have taken charge of the situation since day one. Nagendra Babu who toured the state extensively and held meetings even before the launch of the PR, says, “There are many similarities between Mahatma Gandhi and my brother. He always thinks about the welfare of the common man.”

After weeks of conducting road shows, rallies and campaigns for his brother, Pavan Kalyan now seems more convinced about his elder brother’s cause than ever. “I am sure he will become the Chief Minister and bring light into the lives of the poor in the state,” he quips, rather confidently. Chiru’s son Ram Charan Teja, who campaigned on behalf of his dad in Palacole and Tirupati Assembly segments, too is in awe of his superstar dad. “He is a humanist and always thinks about the welfare of the poor. We all work for his cause,” he says. Chiru’s elder daughter, Susmita, his sister, Madhavi Lata, and Nagendra Babu’s wife, Padmaja have also been campaigning for his victory.
 
Meanwhile, the silent supporter in the Chiru household is his wife Surekha who is happy to work behind the scenes. She has been visiting temples praying for his success ever since PR’s inception. Speaking about his wife’s contribution to his political career, Chiranjeevi says, “I can never forget the encouragement, help and support she’s given at every turn in my life. In fact, I decided to contest from the Tirupati only because she wanted it so. My family’s support shows their affection towards me.”

Ram Charan, Allu Arjun attack on NTR

Finally Ram Charan Teja and Allu Arjun made sarcastic remarks on their fellow actor NTR who has been criticizing Praja Rajyam party in his speeches. When NTR did road shows for Telugu Desam Party, he didn’t attack Chiranjeevi’s party but it is only during his recent speeches through TV on his bed, that he upped his ante on megastar. So megastar’s son Ram Charan Teja and NTR’s good friend Allu Arjun gave befitting retort to the star. On Tuesday, they commented on NTR’s speeches at a rally in Nellore district. Ram Charan Teja asked NTR to mind his language and know his status before making any comments on Chiranjeevi. Allu Arjun criticized TDP for using the services of a person who can’t even walk himself now

Size Zero for Shriya


Bollywood beauty Kareena Kapoor is the new role model for all other actresses in India now. Like her, Shriya too has acquired size zero figure (with no extra fat in the body) and looks stunning. Shriya, who always been very thin, has further lost weight to look young and compete with other new heroines. Shriya has been in the industry for more than 8 years and she needs an image makeover. That is why he has gone for size zero body and her new sexy looks can be seen her forthcoming movie Vishal starrer Pista. 
 
No doubt, men will definitely like her new sexy svelte figure. And what is next in the offing Shriya? A bikini act like Kareena? Well, we are waiting!

Tamannah career in doldrums!


Last year, Tamannah’s career seemed so bright and prosperous. She was touted to be the next big thing. She was in the race for top slot with her right combination of sexy body and coy looks. Look now, what has happened to her career. After the blockbuster Happy Days, Tamannah has come up with several films including some dubbed Tamil movies but none of the created bang at Box-office. Even her recent big budgeted Telugu film – Konchem Ishtam Konchem Kashtam and much-hyped Ananda Thandavam, a film where she is said to have “a tailor made powerful role”, failed big time. 
 
Even her performance has come in sharp criticism. She is now at crossroads as to which way to go - glam way to sustain the career or focus in Tamilnadu where she is still getting some offers. In Tollywood, her career has hit rock bottom. Will she bounce back like she did with Happy Days after disastrous debut in Sree? It remains to be seen.

The Lakshmi Talk Show is a hit?

Mohan Babu’s eldest and only daughter is on small screen as she is hosting and producing a talk show named as “The Lakshmi Talk show”. The show is already on air on Zee Telugu and had the first episode guest as Mohan Babu himself.
Lakshmi Manchu is said to expose the personnel lives of few celebrities on her 13 episode talk show and will also interview Chiranjeevi and his khandhan in future. After the completion of her 13 episode talks show she will again fly back to Los Angeles in order to resume her acting duties in some English television series.
Lakshmi is a well known socialite till date in Hyderabad and has huge friend circle of socialites, politicians, businessmen, actors and actresses. She has the wide range of contacts through her father Mohan Babu and so was well known in party circuits.
Very soon, she is going to produce a television serial for youngsters which will be in the lines of a French television series which attained popularity last year.

Oy(e) It's Birthday!

 
Siddardh in Oy


Siddradh is turning 30 on April 17th. Like always he celebrates his birthday on Friday with his family and friends only. No parties and hungama. On the other hand, this handsome hero is coming up with another movie this summer. Titled Oy, the film is being directed by debutant Anand Ranga and produced by Danayya on Universal Media banner, the film has finished its talkie part. “Only three songs are left to be canned.

Audio in the first week of May
“We are planning to release the songs in the first week of May. Yuvan Shankar Raja has given youthful tunes and his music would surely elevate the movie’s theme. It is a very youthful romantic entertainer. Siddardh and Shamilee’s chemistry and their romantic scenes would touch the hearts,” he added.
We at Telugucinema.com wish the handsome hero Siddardh a very happy birthday and good luck to his new film.

Charm or No Charm!


Not long ago, Charmee is considered one of the hottest and sexiest actresses in Tollywood. In fact, she has a massive sex appeal and that helped her to get good openings for her heroine-centric films. She created flutter when she single handedly pulled off a film (Mantra) without a salable male lead. After the success of Mantra, Charmee flooded with many such heroine-oriented movies and in greed, she signed them left and right. Soon this rotund beauty has turned obese and started losing sex appeal. Result is that all her recent films bombed at Box-office.

16 Days flopped, and now Manorama too got the same result. Adding salt to injury, her next two films - Mayagaadu and Kavya’s Dairy - have got no takers. They have been waiting to get a proper theatre release for a long-time. Her liberal ‘skin show’ in recent films has no impact on the youth. Looks she either lost her sex appeal or limited expressions have become monotonous. Will she do something to her sagging career?

Kamal Haasan’s 'Eenadu' is under progress


Kamal Haasan and Venkatesh starrer bilingual Eenadu has commenced its regular shoot today (Tuesday, April 7, 2009) at Ramoji Film City in Hyderabad. The film is shot both in Telugu and Tamil. In Telugu version Kamal and Venky are playing lead roles while in Tamil Malayalam superstar Mohan Lal replaces Venky’s character. 


The film is remake of Hindi super hit, A Wednesday. Newcomer Chakri (who played the role of photographer in Sagara Sangamam) is directing it using latest camera technology - RED digital cameras. The film is jointly produced by Kamal Hasan’s Raj Kamal banner and UTV Studios. Suresh Productions might take up distribution for Telugu version or present the movie.

Shriya is back in Hyd for 'Pista'


Sexy Shriya is back to Hyderabad after a long gap. She is in town shooting for Pista with Vishal. The movie is shot both in Tamil (Toranai is the title in Tamil) and Telugu by a new director Sabha Ayyappa. It is slated for May 14th release. Says Vishal: “We have shot the movie almost 30 days in Hyderabad and finishing it off very soon. The best part of this flick, it has lots of entertainment. For the first time, we are using many comedians from Telugu. Ali, Krishna Baghavan, Kondavalasa and other comedians are working with me. And I am happy to act with beautiful Shriya in this movie.”
 
He also explained he reason for putting such arrogant title. “It actually denotes the characterization of the protagonist. There is also a confrontation scene between Prakash Raj and me which shows off how ‘Pista’ that I am in the movie. I indulge in mind games than bashing up the villains here,” he said.
Shriya said she is happy to back to shooting here. “As Vishal said, it is going to very entertaining movie and a good romantic movie.”

Audio will hit the market on April 21st.

Ram Charan too joins ‘political canvassing’

Megastar Chiranjeevi’s son Ram Charan too joins the bandwagon of political-stars. Till now, Chiranjeevi denied the entry of his Ram Charan into politics these elections but with competition heating up, he has finally succumbed to the pressure. Ram Charan will join the Praja Rail – a new campaign tour by Chiranjeevi in a train from Secunderabad to Tirupati. Ram Charan will be addressing the public at key stations and towns over the journey. Already Pawan Kalyan, Naga Babu and Allu Arjun are already participating in political canvassing and now the young star in the family also joins them.

Praja Rail Route..

The train starts from Sec-bad station on Saturday at 7.30 am and ends Monday at Renigunta (Tirupati) via Vijayawada, Vizag.  Along with Chiru, Allu Arjun, Ram Charan Teja and other stars from Tollywood join the tour.

'Rakta Charitra' in Hindi


Few months ago, Ram Gopal Varma announced that he would be producing a film, Rakta Charitra, on the life and times of faction leader Late Paritala Ravi. He made it clear that the movie would be made in Telugu in the direction of newcomers Dharma - Rakha. But Varma has changed his plans; he scrapped the project in Telugu and has taken up it in Hindi. He has decided to direct himself in Hindi with the same title.

What made Ramu to make it in Hindi from Telugu? “Well, Ravi was one of the most feared individuals in the history of the blood-smeared faction politics of South India. I have read biographies of many dangerous men, including that of Velupalli Prabhakaran, the LTTE chief, to Pablo Escobar, the Columbian drug lord, to Dawood Ibrahim. But all those stories pale in comparison to that of Ravi’s. So I felt his story would appeal to larger section of audiences,” RGV said.
The shooting will commence from August this year. Currently, Ram Gopal Varma is directing India 24X7 (earlier it was called ‘Rann’), a film on media world. On other
hand, his thriller, Agyaat, (Agnatham in Telugu), with Nitin and Nisha Kotari, is getting released shortly. He will start shooting Rakta Charitra from August.

Two parts..
For the first time in India, Ram Gopal Varma is planning to release a single film in two parts within a gap of two months. “Rakta Charitra needs to be told in exhaustive manner. So the running time exceeds about 5 hours. So I am planning to release it in two parts – Rakta Charitra 1 and Rakta Charitra 2 in a three months gap,” he reasons. A Hindi hero will be doing the lead role as Partitala Ravi.
