Best Babai – Abbai pair in Tollywood

We've seen the word 'Babai' used by contemporary top Telugu movie heroes like Jr NTR, Ram Charan and Rana. So who can be coveted with Tollywood's Best Babai? Here's the list of contenders - Balakrishna, Pawan Kalyan and Venkatesh 

Balakrishna – Young Tiger Jr NTR always uses this word 'maa Babai' referring to Nandamuri Balakrishna. You could spot citing this word in press conferences, promotional campaigns, and even in movie success meets. Its really great on Jr NTR's path to always hold Babai Balakarishna in high esteem. But is Balakrishna reciprocating the same?

Pawan Kalyan – Mega Power Star Ram Charan carries a big heart for Babai Pawan Kalyan. When Ram Charan made his debut in Telugu cinema everyone said that his gestures are similar to his Babai Pawan Kalyan. Although Power Star Pawan Kalyan is media shy Ram Charan is filling in the vacuum to promote his Babai. These days Ram Charan is very active on Twitter and majority of recent tweets were on his Babai Pawan Kalyan and Teenmaar.

Venkatesh – Daggubati Rana is relatively new to Telugu film industry but that does not prevent him from using the popular ' maa Babai'. Rana's performance in his debut movie Leader was widely appreciated and his body language, dialogues were pretty close to that of Babai Venkatesh. Rana even had a super photo shoot with his Babai that made people to say both look like twins.

My choice for Best Babai – Abbai pair is pawan kalyan and ram charan tej

What Happened to Venkatesh's "Ganga"

Share

It has been quite a while since the project 'Ganga' was announced and this was meant to have victory Venkatesh in the lead and that too in pure mass masala role. The film was said to be under the direction of Amma Rajasekhar and till date, no update or whiff of this has been received. Sources from the industry say that doubts have been cast on Amma Rajasekhar and his brand value while some say that he has no substance as a director or a storyteller. On the other hand, Venky is said to be one man who will not take the next step unless he has the bound script. Amma Rajasekhar doesn't believe in such things so obviously there would be few creative differences if common sense is to be followed. For now, there is no news from the Daggubati Venkatesh house or Amma Rajasekhar house so looks like the flow of 'Ganga' has really stopped.

Venkatesh Namo Venkatesa Movie Review | Sreenu Vytla Namo Venkatesa Movie Review - Telugu Cinema Reviews

Share

Film: Namo Venkatesa Rating: 3.5/5 Cast: Venkatesh, Trisha, Brahmannadam, Dharmavarapu, Kasi Viswanath, Jaya Prakash Reddy, Mukesh Rishi, Subbba Raju, Surya, Prithvi, Master Bharat, Surekha Vani, Telangana Sakunthala etc Banners: 14 Reels Entertainment, Suresh Productions Music: Devisri Prasad Cinematography: Prasad Murella Editing: M R Varma Story, screenplay, direction: Srinu Vytla Producers: Achanta Ram, Achanta Gopichand, Sunkara Anil Release date: 14th Jan 2010 Victory Venkatesh has paired up with Srinu Vaitla this time and the expectations obviously went high. With the title also catchy, this was a promising flick, how good is it, let us see Story: Venkatramana (Venkatesh) is a ventriloquist by profession and his only problem is marriage. He goes to European Telugu Association celebrations as a performer and encounters some interesting people there. He is waiting for his dream girl to come. She comes in the form of Pooja (Trisha) but then, her uncle Paris Prasad (Brahmanandam) who is a manipulative kind of person creates a drama just for fun and convinces Venkatramana that Pooja is in love with him. Meanwhile, Pooja’s marriage gets fixed with Bhadrappa (Subbaraju), the hardcore factionist and what happens from there forms the rest of the story. Performances: Venkatesh It was a Venky show all the way and he has shouldered it responsibly. However, the looks of age are showing on him and even his reflexes lack that emotion. Overall, he did a good job. Trisha Unlike in ‘King’ where she looked healthy and bright, Trisha looks quite dull and shrunk. Also, her character doesn’t have much to perform except be there on the screen and for the songs. So, not much hard work from her. Brahmanandam His character was developed well and Brahmi did justice to it in a good way. Some scenes emit a lot of hilarious moments and others could have been developed better. He scored good in this one. Others Mukesh Rishi was regular, so were Jayaprakash Reddy, Kota, Subbaraju and others. Ali was not upto the mark, M S Narayana was good as usual, Dharmavarapu and Kasi Viswanath generated few laughs, the others like Surekha Vani and Master Bharat were there for brand value but more could be extracted from their end.  The ladies also had the same effect in terms of performance and contribution. Highlights: Venkatesh dancing for songs Allu Arjun’s ‘Mr Perfect’ and ‘Ringa Ringa’ brought laughs in theaters Vehicle chasing is a visual treat Dog chasing is a mass entertainer Disappointments: Music Lack of sufficient rib tickling dialogues and situations Analysis: The movie is a storehouse of entire Srinu Vaitla battalion again. The standard cast and crew he maintained for his previous films is seen in this entertainer as well. The concept is just an old wine in new bottle but the shape of bottle could be more interesting. The laughing riot is not worked to the level of his earlier entertainers. Brahmanandam is used well but the dose of script is a bit weak. Master Bharat who is a standard comedy star in Srinu Vaitla’s films is also not fully utilized. First half of the movie is entertaining but the interval bang conveys something very interesting is waiting in second half. Even the interval liner is ‘Get Ready for Real Game’. But the game is very well in predictable limits. The movie stands out to be a wonderful entertainer for the audiences those didn’t watch ‘Dhee’ and  ‘Ready’. But in comparison ‘Namo Venkatesa’ of Vaitla scores little less. Music could be better to bring better mileage for the film. On a whole it’s a family entertainer for this Sankranthi season. Bottom Line: Can be watched with families
