The action entertainer is the most anticipated pan-India project and marks the return of Prabhas to out and out action role.

0

The Telugu Bigg Boss team is trying hard to balance male and female contestants in the 7th Season. In Bigg Boss Telugu 7, till now, there have been continuous eliminations of female contestants. So, the Bigg Boss team is desperately trying to balance the male and female contestants. 

Last week, Tasty Teja was eliminated, and the audience felt it was unfair, and they criticized the management. Even this week’s nominations sounded like they were set to make the female contestants stay out of the process.

The public thought that all the female contestants would be in nominations this week, excluding Shobha Shetty, who was the captain of the house, but the Bigg Boss came up with a theme to put only male contestants in elimination. The male contestants struggled to find reasons to nominate among themselves, which resulted in Prince Yawar’s self-nomination, and finally, only one female contestant, Rathika Rose, was chosen for nomination. 

Now, there is a high chance of a male contestant’s elimination this week, excluding Shivaji; all four housemates have the same range of votes in unofficial voting. 

Big Movies – Big Troubles

0

Normally big movies will not any trouble as for these films no need to worry about the business. If everything goes according to plan the producer can be ended with huge profits irrespective of any result. But now big movies are facing big troubles due to many reasons. The main reasons are

Early Commitments

When a director scores a blockbuster immediately it may be from the producer side or the hero side immediately setting the combinations. Now most of the ongoing and upcoming big movies are committed like this only. The film’s announcement and planning the shoot schedules without locking the full script. The directors are forced to work on the writing side in shooting time which results in creative differences between hero and director. If they locked the full script before going on set there is no chance of creative differences on the writing or story side and the directors have time to work. After going to the sets working on the script resulted the delays and as well as disturbances in the team. The delays also created negative buzz on the film.

CG Works

Now most Big movies especially big pan Indian films use a high portion of CG work. The delay in CG works resulted in the postponement of the films. The directors are continuously failing to get quality CG work in the planned time. Even after putting big money into CG work, The CG scenes turned negative for the film as the audience felt poor CG work. This is happening in most films and the producers, and buyers suffer with continuous postponements.

OverEstimation

Most of the producers failed to make the right calculations on the movie’s business and failed to complete the film within the budget. The producers offer huge remunerations to the hero, director, and everyone thinking the film will do the highest business when the result date is coming closer the business offers are not coming at the producer’s expected prices as in Andhra Pradesh the GO prices are affected for big films which resulted in a decrease in the theatrical business. Now non-technical businesses have also started declining, OTT platforms are not offering like before. The satellite business has seen a huge decline after the OTT’s arrival. With overestimation, the producers put, in massive budgets and not getting enough recovery.

While the fans were waiting for the film’s update, there was a sudden influx of rumors about this iconic next film. Everyone felt a bit surprised with the news that SS Rajamouli replaced the DOP for Mahesh Babu.

Rajamouli’s career began with various cinematographers, including Hari Anumolou for Student No. 1 and Ravindra Babu for Simhadri. His relationship with KK Senthil is something special, which started with the film Sye. Senthil was the sole cameraman for most of his films, notably Magadheera, Eega Bahubali 1 & 2, and the recent RRR, but Sarvesh Murari and C Ram Prasad were also involved in Vikramarkudu and Maryada Ramanna. With Mahesh’s film being a visual effects spectacle, many people thought Senthil would be the default choice but it is being reported that PS Vinod will be cranking the camera for SSMB29.

Reportedly, the team is almost in the completion stage of the story. The play of the film and pre-production works will start next year beginning, and the shooting is expected to begin in April 2024. In the meantime, the news of SSR replacing Senthil has come out.

Senthil is said to be switching his profession to direction and is now interested in directing a film. So, if he signs Mahesh Babu and Rajamouli’s film, he will need to wait for many years, so he expressed the same to Rajamouli, which is why the RRR director had to replace him with PS Vinod.
