Sandeep Kishan on cloud9

Young hero Sandeep Kishan is quite excited these days. All his smiles have a reason as his latest movie 'Tiger' is doing well at box office. First of all we need to appreciate this talented hero because he has accepted a script that allows him into the story 30 minutes after the movie starts. These are the days where a debuting hero is also looking for an introduction song, but Sandeep has honestly stayed with his script rather going for extra elements in the name of mass film. Probably that honesty is paying off.

Wonderful efforts turn into fruits at box office, but the real happiness is felt when industry's best persons compliment us. Same thing is happening with Sandeep at the moment. He's getting calls from Tollywood's prominent celebs who are heaping praises on him for his massy performance. Especially two phone calls have excited this youngster and we know that one came from Stylish Star Allu Arjun.

Sandeep has got a call from mass raja Raviteja, as usual after two years, with the last call being done when this young chap scored a hit with Venkatadri Express. As usual, 'Tiger' got thrilled upon 'Bengal Tiger' calling him and appreciating. When the script is good, director is brilliant and actors do whatever required with out getting off limits, result will be like this. 

If Chiru misses, Allu Arjun will compete

Sankranthi is one of those biggest seasons for Telugu film industry as the holiday season will ensure that collections are maximised for any ordinary flick. For that reason, all biggies try to focus on this season for their releases. From last couple of years, we are witnessing the Mahesh Babu Vs Ram Charan duel at Telugu box office. It's no different for next year too.

For 2015, Pawan Kalyan's Gopala Gopala released all alone at box office with not much competition around. But in 2013 and 14, we have seen Mahesh-Charan clashing with their Seethamma Vaakitlo and Nayak, and then with 1-Nenokkadine and Yevadu. Once again, Mahesh confirmed that he will hit cinemas on January 8th, 2016 with "Brahmotsavam". So what about Charan? No, there is no film of this Mega Powerstar that could get ready by that time, while Sreenu Vytla's film releases in October 2015 itself. But it is earlier revealed that Megastar Chiranjeevi's 150th movie is likely to release for Sankranthi. The ambiguity still continues over this announcement, as the movie hasn't taken off yet.

Even if Charan and Megastar Chiru leaves or misses the Sankranthi slot, there is another mega hero who wants to compete with Mahesh Babu. He's none other than Stylish Star Allu Arjun. With Boyapati film likely to get rolled from July19th, we hear that 14/15th January is being confirmed as release date of the movie by producer Allu Arvind. So, get ready for another wonderful clash of titans.

Allu Arjun: It's really a great moment for me

Treading in the line etched by his seniors and fellow heroes, Stylish Star Allu Arjun has also decided to fulfil the wish of his kid fans, who are suffering from monstrous cancer. Today he met four kids who desired to see him as their last-wish, and it's a moment of emotional squeeze for him.

Bunny has spent time with four kinds, whom he met through Make-A-Wish foundation. "It's really a great moment for me to fulfil the wish of these kids who are battling for life. More people should encourage foundations like Make-A-Wish who are undertaking these kinds of programs", says Bunny. Talking about the kids, he said, "At this stage, it's important to impart self-confidence in them rather helping them medically or otherwise".

Earlier the likes of Pawan Kalyan, Jr NTR and Ram Charan have met kids who are on the deathbed and helped them recover a little. While the youngster Sreeja whom did Pawan paid a visit has recovered completely, unfortunately some other kids breathed their last. 

Is Allu Arjun following Bollywood Heroes

Among the big producers we have, Allu Arvind has impeccable track record of investing his paisas wisely. Whenever he makes a big budgeted flick, he makes sure that the content, budget and return doesn't go haywire. His latest idea of producing Bunny's movie is being dubbed as another such strategic move. 

Did Arvind took a clue from star Bollywood heroes like Shahrukh Khan and Akshay Kumar and emulating their style for his son? Seems yes. Success of Race Gurram and S/o Satyamurthy have pushed Allu Arjun into a big league and producers are queueing up to make movies with him. Keeping all of them in the waiting, Bunny is working on his own banner Geetha Arts with dad Arvind. We hear that this is a clear strategy of getting more money out of the investment.

In Bollywood, big heroes don't collect pay checks from their producers but they produce their movies themselves. With so much confidence in the subject, heroes like Shahrukh are spending nearly 40-50 crores on their films themselves, and in turn earning 150+ crores on each movie. If Bunny and his dad too invest 30-40 crores around their project and make a fantabulous film, then 20-25 crores will fall in profits. Should we now say that Arvind is making sure that his son gets 25 crores in return from the film rather taking just 10 crores remuneration and working?

Insiders say that Arvind has all reasons from now onwards to make movies with Bunny. Probably other big heroes might follow the same suit. But there are cons of this side too. If a film fails, then hero's hard earned investment will be in trouble. 

Allu Arjun is in search of experience Heroine

Allu Arjun is still basking in the glory of his back to back 50 crore 'share' hits at box office. Race Gurram and S/o Satyamurthy hits have catapulted him into a new league. Probably that made him more cautious to sign his next and it took a while to announce his project with Boyapati Sreenu. Well, who's playing heroine in this movie? 

Earlier there is buzz that fresher like Sayesha Saigal and Sonarika Badoria are in consideration for this film. Though Bunny worked with newcomers like Anuradha Mehta, Gowri Munjal and Bhanusri Mehra earlier, after turning into a star he always preferred roping in big and experienced starlets. And with none of Sayesha (Akhil's debut flick heroine) and Sonarika (TV actress, heroine in Jadoogadu) movies turning up at box office, probably he doesn't want to pick them immediately. Latest update is that Bunny-Boyapati are feeling that experienced lady like Rakul Preet Singh will do better job.

Already Rakul entered mega camp by signing Ram Charan's next with Sreenu Vytla and the duo have shot songs too. Probably with his recommendation, maybe this spicy lady will sign Bunny's flick too, say sources. Currently busy with Charan and NTR's films, Rakul is finding tough to accommodate dates for Mahesh's Brahmotsavam. We have to see how could she manage Bunny's flick in case if she signs.

Bunny: Really nice gesture from the King of Hearts !

Wondering who the King of Hearts is? Who else that can be but out very own Megastar Chiranjeevi. Thrilled by the addition of Chiru for the most awaited film Rudhramadevi in which we get to hear Megastar's voiceover narrating the film's story, 'sooo glad that chiranjeevi garu gave voice for Rudhramadevi ! The best choice ! Really nice gesture from the King of Hearts !', said Bunny on his Facebook page.

Ever since the news of Megastar giving voiceover for Rudhramadevi was made official by the team, the craze and expectations for the film have increased and Mega fans are now eagerly waiting to catch the film first day first show. Even Gunasekhar's friendly ties with Chiru and Bunny seem to have amused the Mega fans.

On the other hand, it's been a while since the young Mega hero spoke about his uncle Chiranjeevi after the success meet of his last film S/O Satyamurthy. We all know the amount of adulation Bunny has for Chiru and he never leaves an opportunity to showcase his love for his favorite idol.

Mahesh and Allu Arjun are making TFI proud

Two of Tollywood's most hyped heroes are now endorsing two different bikes on national level. One happens to be Superstar Mahesh who is endorsing TVS Motors, while other one is Stylish Star Allu Arjun who signed deal with Hero Motor Corp. Both these stars are part of a nation-wide campaign of the newest motor cycles that came from the giant bike manufacturers.

During the recently concluded Worldcup and IPL season, Bunny sparkled on small-screen with his Hero Glamour bike ad. His style is the main quotient that has driven the ad to a new level. The makers have explored Bunny's potential to the fullest as they portrayed him wooing girls with his glamorous bike. Coming to Mahesh Babu's recent released TVS Phoenix ad, he is shown as a guy who helps everyone in need by dropping them on his bike. Makers have focused on highlighting bike's mileage and other features through Mahesh's candid emotions.

Needles to compare, both these ads are in the league of their own. Apart from that, these two heroes are making Telugu people proud. Because all these days we have seen either some top stars from Bollywood or some sports stars endorsing such pan-India endorsements. Mahesh is a class apart in terms of these pan-India endorsements while Bunny recently joined him. 

S/o Satya Murthy, interesting title for Trivikram-Allu arjun movie

Stylish Star Allu Arjun's upcoming film in the direction of ace director Trivikram has been titled S/O Satya Murthy. There were numerous rumors about the title of this film. Jadoogar and Husharu titles made rounds in the social network as well as mainstream media.

However Trivikram decided to come up with an interesting title like his previous film Attarintiki Daredi. Son of Satya Murthy sounds very simple yet striking. It denotes boy next door kind of character played by Allu Arjun.

This film is riding on high expectations and the pre release business is just shocking everybody. People are expecting the Julayi duo to do wonders at the box office. Both Bunny and Trivikram are riding high on the successes of their previous films. Hope S/O Satya Murthy doesn't let us down. 

Allu Arjun is getting ready for March treat

If all goes according to plan, Allu Arjun's next movie will have a March release. Allu Arjun is playing the role of a wedding planner in the movie directed by Trivikram Srinivas. Already major portion of shooting is wrapped up and even efforts are under way to wrap up dubbing work simultaneously. Allu Arjun is dubbing for the scenes which were shot so far.

Arjun is eyeing an image makeover with this film. He  underwent hard training for new style of fight sequences and hired a popular gymnast to learn flips, somersaults and other gymnastic skills in order to make the stunts done by him look realistic. He also lost 10 Kgs of weight to sport a lean look for which he took special diet and workouts in gym.

The yet-to-be-titled movie has Samantha, Adah Sharma and Nithya Menen as female leads. Since this is the second film of Allu Arjun and Trivikram after the stupendous success of Julayi, expectations are bound to be high. K. Radhakrishna who produced Julayi is also producing this film and Allu Aravind is co-producing the film. Music by Devi Sri Prasad, the makers are planning to dub the film in Tamil and Malayalam. 

Mahesh and Allu Arjun are creating tension in their fan's heart

Allu Arjun and Prince Mahesh are now the risk takers in Tollywood film industry. As per the talk, Allu Arjun is flying to South Africa as a part of his upcoming film shooting. Prince Mahesh and Shruti Hassan too is stated to be in the plans of going to South Africa for their upcoming film shooting.

In this scenario, analysts are considering these two top heroes as risk takers. It is a fact that the dangerous virus Ebola is spreading across African continent and the shooting schedules of these heroes were now creating tension in the minds of their fans.

We can say that Allu Arjun and Mahesh are taking the risk by entering Africa. While other heroes are choosing locations in Europe, Asia and America, Allu Arjun and Mahesh were stated to be determined to shoot in Africa as few locations looked good for their flick. Hope they take complete precaution and security.

Allu Arjun reveals the secret behind the success of Race Gurram

Crediting the right persons at right time is always a work of big heart. Probably Stylish Star Allu Arjun knows it quite well as he admits that the blockbuster success he received this year couldn't be attributed to the birth of his son Allu Ayaan. Check this out.

"My son Ayaan has given me those first ever emotional over-whelming feelings. But frankly I can't agree that he is the luck charm for Race Gurram to become a swash buckling hit", says Allu Arjun, without giving us a chance to call his son's birth as reason for Race Gurram's staggering success this year. "Surender Reddy worked harder for an year to make that movie. It's a team effort and the success belongs to everyone", he adds. This genuine acceptance of fact is what makes Allu Arjun different from others. You deserve a pat Bunny!!! 

The person behind Shruti haasan's Lungi dance in RaceGurram

Biggest Blockbuster of the year 2014 is finally "Race Gurram" though Mukunda and Chinnadana Nee kosam are yet to release and score a brownie. No other big star's movie made as much as Bunny-Surender Reddy's flick at the box office. This film also features gorgeous Shruti Haasan wearing a lungi for the first time on silver screen for the song 'Cinema Choopista maava'. The peppy dance number composed by talented Thaman stood as song of the year, as youths love to groove to it whenever it is heard.

We hear that there are couple interesting moments that happened behind the scenes regarding this song. In fact, pulling that difficult step of Shruti sitting on Bunny's lap and then our hero trying to thrust her upward is a tough job. But the duo managed effortlessly as she was ready to experiment despite the shackles involved. In another step, Shruti simply sizzled like a Race Gurram when she danced on par with Bunny by wearing a Lungi. In fact, she has turned out in another costume for that sequence, but it is our hero who suggested Shruti to wear Lungi. Though she is hesitant initially, the whole Lungi dance act pulled off with grace and clicked big time. 

Secret behind NTR and Allu Arjun's Costumes

Tollywood heroes these days are not leaving their dressing style to designers and costumers when it comes to their on-screen outfits and styling. They are very much active in following the trends, picking up trendy and latest clothes, choosing right hairstyles and accessories to carry their best looks. Let's check what's happening with two of the Tollywood's hot-shot stars, Allu Arjun and Jr NTR, to find out more. 

For the upcoming movies, Bunny-Trivikram film and Jr NTR-Puri Jagan's Temper, both our heroes are following unique style. And their costumes are the most talked about as they have purchased them in other countries. Bunny went to Dubai along with his brother Sirish to buy the latest winter-trends in leading designer stores. Apart from those regular costumes we see in scenes, he  has picked up different jackets, slim-fit shirts, torn jeans and shoes to feature in songs. Coming to NTR, he is trying his best to avoid jackets and jean-coats to bring out the best of his chiseled look. All his costumes used in Temper are brought in Hongkong and few in London. He banked on linen material shirts and earthly shades for his rugged look as a cop. 

NTR's Temper will hit screens on January 9, and there is no change in release date for the now. Bunny's movie is scheduled for February 9th, and both the flicks will be racing against time to reach the deadlines. As Cine workers have called off their strike, wrapping these flicks on time isn't a big deal anymore.

Will they repeat the old trend or ob-set audience?

Few combinations are bought together just to rock film industry, especially that of a director and a hero. In Tollywood we have seen how NTR-Dasari, B Gopala - Balakrishna and Chiranjeevi-Raghavendra Rao's combination enthralled audiences to the core. But in recent times, this trend is taking a downward spiral as every hero likes to work with a new director each time rather repeating one. Among the interesting repetitions we rarely see, Mahesh and Pawan have worked with magical-writer Trivikram twice and so is Allu Arjun now.

As the 'Julayi' combination is getting ready for a February 5th release with their romantic family entertainer that features Samantha, Adah  Sharma, Nitya Menon and Upendra, Sneha in key roles, here comes a big question. What kind of hit Bunny is going to get with his second flick under Trivikram's direction? In fact, when our director handled Pawan for second time after Jalsa, he has given an industry hit through Attarintiki Daredi. But for Mahesh, he carved out a flop buster like Khaleja post a praised film like Athadu. So, we wonder what Bunny-Trivikram combination is going to offer, after a super hit like Julayi. Wait and see.

Surprise: Top hero at his Dad's office

First ever 100 crore Bollywood bonanja is Amir Khan's 'Ghajini' and then a top grossing Telugu industry hit is 'Magadheera'. It's simple to guess that both these flicks have some producer calling the cheque books. Mega producer Allu Arvind crafted them on 'Geetha Arts' banner, and what is this banner doing these days as they seem to produce no movie?

Highlighting that Geetha Arts office has become a creative hub of sorts, young hero Allu Sirish says 'meeting rooms at GA are filled with different teams that range from star-directors to aspirants, their assistants and apprentice, and writers'. Probably we could read between the lines that Trivikram is busy at one of those halls giving final touches to Bunny's project, while some other directors are busy narrating stories for Allu Sirish. Also project discussions about Sai Dharam Tej and Varun Tej's next are also going on at the same place.

And there is a surprising guest at the office. None other than stylish star Allu Arjun is present at his dad's office, to share tips-tricks and experiences with aspiring directors and writers. We wonder why there is no announcement of Bunny or Sirish's new flick despite all these creative discussions happening.
