After Uppena, his sensational debut blockbuster, the actor is coming up with a huge action entertainer with Aadikeshava. The movie is being written and directed by Srikanth N Reddy. The debutant director is aiming to impress mass movie and action lovers of Telugu Cinema in a huge way with this one. Already, action glimpse of the film, has presented Panja Vaisshnav Tej in a new dynamic avatar like never before. Aadikeshava cast also includes young sensation Sreeleela in leading lady role as Chitra. The glimpse released for her birthday has showcased her in a chirpy and fun angle. Along with her movie cast includes National Award winning Malayalam Actor Joju George and Aparna Das in important roles.

Stakes go up for Vijay Deverakonda like never before

'Liger' is considered the most important film in Vijay Deverakonda's career. The film's success would have made him a pan-India star. Even filmmakers from other industries would have vied for his dates. His remuneration would have hit the Rs 40-Cr mark, if not more. Thanks to Puri Jagannadh, the film turned out to be a dud. In this context, 'Kushi' has become a high-stakes project for the talented Vijay. The consequences of its success will mean that his career once again starts looking bright. His career will start exuding the vibrancy of the 'Geetha Govindam' days. But the consequences of its failure will be catastrophic. Going by the trailer, 'Kushi' appears to have a fairly good story. Some resemblances to Mani Ratnam's 'Sakhi' are overblown. The mood and sensibilities of 'Kushi' appear to be different from 'Sakhi'. So, the audience won't do comparisons. Vijay and Samantha Ruth Prabhu look poised to attract youths on the first weekend and the family audience later on if the 'word of mouth' is positive. Mythri Movie Makers has also had a great run. And director Shiva Nirvana knows his brief. On September 1, let's hope 'Kushi' will help Vijay finally get a fillip. After all, he hasn't had a hit in five years. His last hit, 'Taxiwala', was released in 2018. 'Dear Comrade', 'World Famous Lover' and 'Liger' were flops. The stakes are super-high and unprecedented.

'Kannappa': Mohan Babu's biggest gamble doesn't inspire confidence

Mohan Babu is producing a magnum opus. Titled 'Kannappa – A True Epic Indian Tale', the film is touted to be an epic-scale pan-India movie featuring "distinguished" artists from across the country. For now, though, only two names have been announced: Vishnu Manchu and Nupur Sanon. Mohan Babu is bankrolling the "dream project" on 24 Frames Factory and AVA Entertainment. The budget is said to be upwards of Rs 100 Cr. If you thought someone who has delivered box-office hits down South is helming the project, you are wrong. Director Mukesh Kumar Singh is on board to wield the megaphone. He has previously made a couple of Hindi-language mythological and historical serials on TV. Paruchuri Gopalakrishna, Thota Prasad, Thotapalli Sainath, and Burra Sai Madhav have been chosen to write the devotional flick. Paruchuri reigned supreme once upon a time but he is hardly the writer you have to rely on today. Sainath is a veteran writer who was last associated with 'Baahubali: The Beginning' but his speculated contribution to that film was not significant. Sainath hasn't worked prominently on any major hit in the last many, many years. The same holds true for Thota Prasad. Burra Sai Madhav is the only writer who has a grip on contemporary trends. Considering these factors, 'Kannappa' comes across as a big gamble. Only a massive star cast can ensure grand openings for it.

'Salaar': Post-production works shifted to a village?

'Salaar' is slated to hit the cinemas on September 28. The film's promotions are non-existent so far. The buzz is that Hombale Films is planning to roll out promotions in the first week of September. The pan-India action drama, meanwhile, has got a new address as far as its post-production is concerned. It is reported that director Prashanth Neel is carrying out post-production works in collaboration with composer Ravi Basrur in a village in Karnataka. The shift has taken place to ensure utmost secrecy, the report says. It has been speculated that Prabhas and Prithviraj Sukumaran will be seen as estranged friends in 'Salaar'. The backdrop is said to be a conflict-ridden fictional town where Prabhas's character faces a moral dilemma. He is torn between his promise made to his mother and his loyalty to his friend. 'Salaar', co-starring Shruti Haasan, Sriya Reddy and Jagapathi Babu, is Prabhas' second release this year. 'Adipurush' was released on June 16.

Blockbuster Maker Boyapati Sreenu, Ustaad Ram Pothineni, Sreeleela, Srinivasaa Chitturi, Srinivasaa Silver Scree n’s Skanda Shooting Wrapped Up

After the blockbuster success of Akhanda, mass maker Boyapati Sreenu joined forces with Ustaad Ram Pothineni for a mass action entertainer Skanda. Boyapati who is known for presenting his heroes in never-seen-before mass get-ups is showing Ram in a completely different look. The actor appeared in a massy avatar in posters and other promotional material. Interim, the team completed shooting the last song on the lead pair and dancers in a massive set. With that, the entire shooting part of Skanda is wrapped up. In this picture, Ram and Sreeleela appear in fancy outfits and they are seen posing alongside director Boyapati Sreenu, and producer Srinivasaa Chitturi. The makers have now got enough time to promote the movie. The post-production works are also happening at a fast pace. Since it is a Pan India project, they want to promote it vigorously in other languages across the country.

Producer doesn't rule out festival release of 'Ustaad Bhagat Singh'

'Ustaad Bhagat Singh' had a grand start earlier this year. However, its subsequent schedules have hit a roadblock due to Pawan Kalyan's political commitments. Its shoot is going to be recommenced soon. When is the film going to be finished and released? As per producer Naveen Yerneni, the plan is to release it for Sankranthi 2024. If that is not possible for whatever reason, the big-ticket release will happen in the early Summer of that year. By early Summer, the producer could mean late March of 2024. The producer not ruling out a Sankranthi release should make Power Star's fans delighted. With the screenplay written by K Dasharath and C Chandra Mohan as the contributing writer, 'UBS' has music by Devi Sri Prasad. As for Mythri Movie Makers, the banner is currently also doing Allu Arjun's 'Pushpa 2', Vijay Deverakonda's 'Kushi' (to be released on September 1 this year), NTR31, Ram Charan's 16th movie, Ravi Teja's movie with Gopichand Malineni, and other movies.

Naga Chaitanya says NC23 Expedition in Srikakulam was a 'great start'

Naga Chaitanya's 23rd film is directed by Chandoo Mondeti and produced by Bunny Vas. The trio was recently in Srikakulam's K Matcheleasam village where the fishermen's community is dominant. Visuals of the 'Laal Singh Chaddha' actor getting mobbed by community members were all over social media recently. Today, the 'Custody' actor revealed why he and his director-producer duo had to be there. The purpose was to hear out the experiences of the fishermen and to understand their land. "It was a great start to building my character," the Akkineni hero added. Chandoo, who has previously directed 'Kartikeya 2' and 'Kartikeya' (with Nikhil Siddhartha) and 'Premam' and 'Savyasachi' (with Chay), said that they observed every minute detail during the visit. Speculation is that NC23 will feature fishermen's travails after some individuals are nabbed by Pakistan and arrested for trespassing into their waters. Some of the situations in the film happened for real.

Siddu Jonnalagadda's movie with 'Bommarillu' director firmed up

Siddu Jonnalagadda awaits the release of 'Tillu Square' in September or October. Sithara Entertainments and Fortune Four Cinemas will finalize its release date soon. In the meantime, the 'Guntur Talkies' actor is gearing up for the launch of a movie directed by 'Bommarillu' Bhasker. The director's previous box-office release is 'Most Eligible Bachelor'. Siddhu and Bhasker teamed up for the project earlier this year. Sri Venkateswara Cine Chitra waited for the right time to launch the movie. As per the latest buzz in the industry, the untitled project will be launched on August 10. Sri Venkateswara Cine Chitra recently scored a box-office blockbuster in the form of 'Virupaksha'.

Fahadh Faasil's Bhanwar Singh is 'face of vengeance'

The makers of Allu Arjun's 'Pushpa 2' today unveiled a poster dedicated to Fahadh Faasil. The 'Maamannan' and 'Vikram' actor turns a year older today.

Although Bunny Vas recently happened to say that it will be a December 2023 release, the date has been unofficially deferred. The sequel to 'Pushpa' will most probably be a Summer 2024 release.

Family audiences continue to warm up to 'BRO' in second week: People Media Factory

Pawan Kalyan-Sai Dharam Tej’s 'BRO' is in the second week of its theatrical run. In a statement, the makers today said that the fantasy comedy's box-office appeal hasn't diminished among the family audience. "Multiple ticket-booking platforms are reporting a solid response from viewers and it shows how a well-made film will always get its due," the makers said. The nature of the subject, the emotionally heavy and philosophically evolved climax, and Power Star's swag, among other factors, are determining healthy outcomes for the remake of 'Vinodhaya Sitham' (Tamil), the makers hinted. Starring Priya Prakash Varrier as Sai Tej's sister, the People Media Factory production also features Ketika Sharma, Rohini and others. Meanwhile, in a political address, the Jana Sena Party chief commented that he has outgrown 'BRO' but his opponents like Ambati Rambabu are still analyzing its costs and revenues.

Super-villain to confront super-hero in this high-concept movie : 'A Masterpiece'

'A Masterpiece' is the title of a Telugu-language super-hero movie directed by Suku Purvaj. Producer Kandregula Srikanth of Cinema Bandi Productions has admittedly mounted the film to meet international making standards. Aravind Krishna and Ashu Reddy are its lead pair. The sci-fi thriller went on the floors in January this year. The news is that the first-look poster of the film's super-villain character was unveiled today. Manish Gilada is essaying the coveted role. He is a super-villain because he has apparently defied death by being born on repeat. He took a re-birth in 1986 soon after he passed away.

Satish Vegesna's 'Katha Keli' looks promising: Dil Raju

'Shatamanam Bhavathi' director Satish Vegesna is back with a new film titled 'Katha Keli'. Produced by the director himself, the film's teaser is out. The film's story is centered on a ghost and the perspective from which it tells the story. On the face of it, the horror drama is dominated by female characters and is a collection of stories rather than a single story. Tropes like a haunted house and troubled women are expected. The teaser launch event was graced by star producer Dil Raju said that Vegesna's banner, Shatamanam Bhavathi Arts, sounds pretty positive and cheerful. He added that the teaser for 'Katha Keli' is quite interesting and wished the team all the best. 'Ustaad Bhagat Singh' maker Harish Shankar briefly touched upon Raju's reaction when Sharwanand's movie won a National Award back in 2017. "I would like to take this opportunity to thank Dil Raju garu who came to bless the person who put up the banner with the title of his film," the 'DJ' director said. Vegesna spoke of the experience of watching EVV Satyanarayana set up his own banner. He added that he has turned a producer because 'Kothi Kommachchi' and 'Sree Sree Rajavaru', two of his directorials, have been delayed due to the pandemic. 'Kathe Keli', he said, is a concept-driven movie. The 'Srinivasa Kalyanam' turned emotional as he said that he will forever be indebted to his wife Rama, his son Yashwin, his daughter Shirish and his younger brother Pradeep, who supported me in this career.

Nee Chuttu Chuttu (Lyrical Video) | Skanda | Ram Pothineni

'Dongode Doragadu' is all about the central theme "Bedurulanka 2012"

Kartikeya Gummakonda's 'Bedurulanka 2012', a dramedy starring 'DJ Tillu' fame Neha Sshetty as the heroine, will arrive at the cinemas on August 25. Director Clax has conceived a topical song that propagates the view that religious preachers seek to fish in troubled waters. The village where the film's story takes place comes under the pernicious influence of the quacks.

'Wolf' Teaser: Prabhu Deva's film is a promising supernatural horror

Prabhu Deva's 60th movie has him in the role of a captive who gets caught in a web of deceit and manipulation. An evil cult is helmed by the character played by Anasuya Bharadwaj. From the looks of it, she traps the male lead in collaboration with another wily character played by Raai Laxmi. Both the 'Kanchana' actress and the 'Kshanam' damsel seem to be involved in an ulterior game of undeclared motives. The 'Premikudu' actor makes us believe that he is indeed caught in a bind. Set to hit the cinemas later this year, 'Wolf' is a pan-India release. The supernatural horror film, coming from director Vinoo Venkatesh, will be released in Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Hindi. Right from the production design to the costumes and premise, 'Wolf' seems to have got many things right. Vasishta N Simha, Anju Kurian, Ramesh Thilak, and others are playing different roles. Arul Vincent (cinematographer) and Amrish (music director) have worked on the movie.
