Roshan Meka, the Telugu actor, is now making waves in not only in the Telugu film industry but in the Malayalam cinema as well. As he grabs the role of Malayalam superstar Mohanlal’s son in the highly anticipated movie Vrushabha, which is touted to be an epic action-entertainer set to be released pan India wide, Roshan has caught the attention of everyone.

While the Telugu audiences are delighted that Roshan has received such a massive opportunity so early in his career, the Malayalam film folks are checking this young actor’s background and trying to discover who he is in all aspects and how come he got a chance to work with a big star like Mohanlal.

We know that Roshan is the son of renowned actors Srikanth and Ooha. So, it is obvious to him to develop an interest in films as he is born into a family which is deeply rooted in the world of cinema. Roshan Meka first appeared as a child artist in the film Rudramadevi (2015), playing the role of the young Chalukya Veerabhadra. However, it was his first role in Nirmala Convent (2016) that won him the recognition, as he won the prestigious SIIMA Award for male debut in Telugu.

Pelli SandaD (2021), a spiritual sequel to his father’s Pelli Sandadi, was Roshan’s next film as he stepped into the shoes of a proper commercial hero and became much known to everyone with the success of the film. His acting abilities and ardent desire to excel in his craft have made him a notable actor in the early days of his career itself.

Directed by Nanda Kishore and Produced by Abhishek Vyas, Vrushabha is an intense dramatic story between a father and his son, and promises to have a massive ensemble cast, the state of the art VFX, and high-octane sequences to enthrall fans.

Presented by Connekkt Media and Balaji Telefilms in association with AVS Studios, it will go on floors later this month, and will be released in 2024, on over 4,500 screens worldwide in Malayalam, Telugu, Kannada, Tamil, and Hindi.

It is very well known to everyone that Sree Leela, the actress who debuted in Tollywood with Pelli Sandadi and got a superb successful first film, and she achieved another success with her second film, Dhamaka in which she appeared alongside Raviteja.

Also, it has now become a formality for the upcoming films and the units to replace the other top actresses with Sree Leela. Yesterday evening, fans were in a severe shock as national crush Rashmika Mandanna opted out of Nithin and Venky Kudumula’s film. The inside reports strongly suggest that Sree Leela has grabbed this opportunity.

In the recent past, the same happened for Mahesh Babu and Trivikram’s Guntur kaaram now it is happening for Nithin’s film. The actresses might say that the dates issue is the main problem for them being replaced, but the reality seems to be not near to their statements.

Everyone knows how many offers are flooding before Sree Leela and there is no possibility of any other actress being is busy than Sree Leela. So, when Sree Leela herself is adjusting the dates, then the question arises why the other actresses are having the issues. For Guntur kaaram Pooja Hegde was the initial choice to play the main lead and sree leela replaced her main lead role and Pooja Hegde walked out of the project and got replaced by Sree Leela.

Now even for Nithin and Venky Kudumula’s film also, Rashmika was the lead actress and now she is out of the project, and it is being reported that Sree Leela is likely to act as the female lead in this film.

0

The Telugu cinema industry is going to newer avenues with each release. Telugu films today are being shot and screened at places where one couldn’t have seen or imagined a few years back. Because of these new trends in the film industry, even movie promotions have taken a different route. Many films producers are applying a new strategy of having paid premiers.

As said above, the promotions of movies are not just limited to pre-release events, teasers, or first-look posters. Now the makers are taking the route of paid premieres for spreading the good word about their movies, and the new marketing strategy is working well for small films.

Because it is very essential to create buzz and get openings for small films, as big star’s films will have a bankable number of audiences who come to the theaters. But it is a big task to do the same with small films. Which is why the small recent films have come up with an excellent strategy of early premiers.

The strategy of paid premiers has worked well for films like Balagam, Samajavaragamana. Now for the upcoming film Baby also the makers have planned paid premiers in major cities and the shows have got good demand in the form of advance bookings. The promotional content of the film has worked well and if the talk comes positive from the premiers then the film will have big openings at the box office.
