డీజే టిల్లు సీక్వెల్ కోసం నటి అనుపమ పరమేశ్వరన్ ను హీరోయిన్ గా తీసుకున్న విషయం తెలిసిందే. కాని కొన్ని కారణాల వల్ల ఆమె వెంటనే ఆ ప్రాజెక్ట్ నుండి తప్పుకున్నారు మరియు హీరో సిద్ధుతో గొడవలే అందుకు కారణమని చెప్పబడింది.

కార్తికేయ-2 వంటి భారీ విజయం తరువాత డీజే టిల్లు సీక్వెల్ కోసం అనుపమను ఎంచుకున్నారు. ఈ సినిమాలో ఆమె నటిస్తున్నట్లు ప్రకటించడం కూడా చాలా క్రేజీగా రివీల్ చేశారు.

అయితే సిద్ధు జొన్నలగడ్డతో అనుపమకు పెద్ద గొడవ జరిగి సెట్స్ నుంచి వెళ్లిపోయినట్లు ఇన్ సైడ్ రిపోర్టులు చెబుతున్నాయి. తరువాత ఆమె నిష్క్రమణకు కారణాలుగా రకరకాల పుకార్లు వచ్చాయి.

ఆ విషయం అలా ఉంచితే.. యువ హీరో నిఖిల్ సిద్ధార్థ్, అనుపమ పరమేశ్వరన్ జంటగా నటించిన తాజా చిత్రం ’18 పేజెస్’. ఈ చిత్రం నిన్ననే విడుదలైంది.

ఈ సినిమాలో నిఖిల్ నటనకు మంచి స్పందన వస్తోంది, అనుపమ పరమేశ్వరన్ క్యూట్ స్క్రీన్ ప్రెజెన్స్ కూడా సినిమాకు మరో పాజిటివ్ అని అంటున్నారు. గోపీ సుందర్ యొక్క అందమైన సంగీతం ఈ చిత్రం నుండి అతిపెద్ద ప్లస్ పాయింట్ గా చెబుతున్నారు.

ఓవరాల్ గా యూత్ ఆడియన్స్ కి కనెక్ట్ అయ్యే కంటెంట్ ఉన్న 18 పేజెస్ సినిమా ఏ సెంటర్స్ లో బాగా ఆడుతుందని ట్రేడ్ వర్గాలు భావిస్తున్నాయి.

Power Star Pawan Kalyan is being busy in politics, and he is also taking part in the shooting of his films as well. Pawan Kalyan is not a party person off-screen, and he rarely meets other heroes, but we can say that it will be an eye-feast for his fans to see him with other Superstar Heroes.

Pawan Kalyan today met Nandamuri Balakrishna and this news and the pic of them both together went viral on social media.

https://twitter.com/MythriOfficial/status/1606281495957884928?t=2krGQ47I06p7br6UiFUQgA&s=19

There is already a strong and almost confirmed news that Pawan Kalyan is going to come to Balakrishna’s unstoppable show. The shooting of their episode will start by the end of this month.

However, even before the episode, Nandamuri Balakrishna’s special meeting with Pawan Kalyan went viral. Balakrishna is currently completing a few scenes related to his Veera Simha Reddy’s film, which is slated for Sankranthi release.

Pawan Kalyan’s entry into the shooting spot has also gone viral. However, it is not yet clear whether it was an accidental meeting or if it was planned. While, it is also evident that Nandamuri Balakrishna and Pawan Kalyan had a brief discussion.

While Pawan Kalyan appeared in a simple off-screen look, Balakrishna was seen with a costume as he was taking part in the shoot. The two seem to have talked for a while. It is further said that Balayya will end this season of Unstoppable with Pawan Kalyan’s episode.

Along with Pawan Kalyan, Trivikram will also take part in the event. There is a possibility that the episode will be released as a Sankranthi gift or on January 26th on the occasion of Republic Day on Aha OTT platform.

It was Allu Arjun who forced the makers to release Pushpa in Russia

0

Allu Arjun’s Pushpa was released in Russia on December 8th and ended as a complete washout. The film despite big promotions brought makers nothing and attracted criticism for the decision to release the film there.

Allu Arjun and the entire Pushpa crew traveled to the country to promote the film. Rashmika Mandanna accompanied them as well. The producers have spent 3 crores for the Promotions and dubbing and hardly anything has been recovered for the producers and the total amount is a loss for them.

Mythri Movie Makers, in fact, did not have any plans to release the film in Russia. But Allu Arjun forced the makers to release the film in Russia. He believed that if Pushpa succeeds in Russia, the sequel will have huge business and craze later on.

This decision has backfired massively and cost the makers 3Cr loss and also dented the Pushpa brand. Allu Arjun’s Pushpa has been taken off the theatres in the very first week due to low occupancy and almost no interest from Russian audience.

The clashes between actress Anupama and DJ Tillu fame Siddhu seems to be true

0

Actress Anupama Parameswaran was roped in for the female lead role for Dj Tillu sequel but because of some reasons, she immediately quit from the project and the reason was said to be her clashes with the hero Siddhu.

Now this news appears to be true as Anupama faced a question on this issue recently during the promotions of her latest film 18 Pages, but she hesitated to talk about anything on Tillu Square, the sequel of DJ Tillu.

After these doubts are being raised that there must have been some sort of truth in the rumors of Siddhu Jonnalagadda and Anupama Parameswaran’s clash.

After the massive success of Karthikeya-2, they chose Anupama for the much hyped DJ Tillu Sequel. The announcement of her being in the film was too revealed in a crazy way.

However, Anupama reportedly had a major argument with Siddhu Jonnalagadda and left the sets, according to inside reports. Later, it was again rumored that Siddhu’s recent success caused her departure.

Meanwhile, Nikhil Siddharth and Anupama Parameswaran’s latest film 18 Pages has been released today. Nikhil’s performance is getting a good response, and Anupama Parameshwaran’s cute screen presence is too said to be another positive for the film.

The biggest takeaway from the film is Gopi Sundar’s beautiful music. Overall, 18 Pages has the content which would connect with youth audiences, the trade circles are expecting the film to perform well in A centres.

Everyone is putting big pressure on Mythri movie makers

0

Mythri Movie Makers have quickly made a name for themselves by making films with several star actors. We know that they are producing films with veteran stars Chiranjeevi and Balakrishna.

Chiranjeevi’s film is Waltair Veerayya, and it is a mass entertainer. Balakrishna’s film is Veera Simha Reddy and the film too is a mass entertainer, and they made it in a faction backdrop.

Both these films are heading for a an encounter during Sankranti 2023. Mythri makers tried their best to avoid the clash, but their efforts ran in vain and both the films proceeded with the clash and made their announcements. Mythri movie makers are now taking the heat from every round corner because of this massive clash.

As said above, Mythri movie makers are already experiencing the heat from Dil Raju for theaters issue now one more issue has come on their heads. There’s an enormous pressure from Chiranjeevi and Balakrishna compounds for the Theaters in Telugu States.

Chiranjeevi’s compound demand is to have a greater number of screens on festival days as Balakrishna film has day1 solo advantage. Balakrishna’s compound is demanding to keep the same amount of screens for both the movies during festival times.

Mythri team is really in severe pressure as they need to satisfy everyone, but it is difficult because it is not easy to make everybody happy when such competition is happening.

They have invested hugely in both projects, and they were expecting huge theatrical advances, which has not happened because of the clash between Waltair Veerayya and Veera Simha Reddy.

Dhamaka opens with massive numbers and decent WOM

0

Dhamaka is Ravi Teja’s latest film, in which the actor has done a complete energetic avatar after a brief period. The film released today and though it has received mixed reviews, the audience seems to have liked it and the film also is performing well at the box office.

Dhamaka songs became popular before the release, Raviteja’s energy and his dances with young heroine Sreelela in promos worked and the promotions overall have worked well for the film and created a lot of buzz around it.

The craze before the release for Dhamaka has turned into numbers at the box office as the noon shows and matinees are excellent in all the territories of Andhrapradesh and mass audience are liking the film and for the other audience it has mixed opinions.

According to the trade circles, if Dhamaka holds well till the weekend it can recover most of the business it has done.

Looks like the blockbuster duo of Director Nakkina Trinadha Rao and Writor Prasanna Kumar Bezawada has delivered another commercial entertainer, as they promised from the trailer.

Well, the entire film unit looked very confident about the film’s output during the promotions, and the Telugu film box office is going to end the year 2022 with a bang, as per the expectations.

Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja, who faced two colossal disasters back-to-back in 2022, will surely make his fans happy by getting such a positive response with Dhamaka.

Along with ‘Khiladi’ directed by Ramesh Varma, ‘Rama Rao on Duty’ headed by Sarath Mandava also joined the list of disasters and disappointed Ravi Teja severely earlier this year.

Avatar 2 is a big loss venture for exhibitors in Telugu states

0

Avatar 2 carried a huge craze right from the release of its trailer in India. Especially in the Telugu States, the exhibitors had high hopes for the film and expected the film to collect big collections.

Avatar 2 released on December 16th and opened to excellent reviews and superb box office collections. Though it is a bit underperforming at the worldwide box office, in India it is having an exceptional run.

However, even though the film is collecting good figures in the Telugu States, it has not made the exhibitors happy. The exhibitors especially in B&C Centers in Telugu States, have bought the film for massive amounts of MG and SG basis, and today it’s heading towards immense loss venture for them.

Few box office analysts and experts have warned the exhibitors not to buy Avatar 2 for huge rates. But from the beginning onwards, the over expectations of exhibitors on the film have costed them today.

Avatar, which was released 13 years ago, mesmerized the audience around the world and became a huge hit.

With the film, director James Cameron created a new world called Pandora with amazing visuals. After so many years, part 2 of Titled Avatar: The Way of Water, the film released worldwide on December 16.

Movie lovers from all over the world were eagerly waiting for Avatar 2. Avatar the Way of Water has released in 2D, 3D, 4DX 3D and IMAX 3D formats. They released the film in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Malayalam, and Kannada languages in our country.

రవితేజ నటించిన ధమాకా ఈ శుక్రవారమే భారీ అంచనాల నడుమ ప్రేక్షకుల ముందుకు వచ్చింది. ‘మాస్ మహారాజా’ అభిమానులు చాలా కాలం తర్వాత తమ అభిమాన హీరోని మాస్ పాత్రలో చూడాలని తహతహలాడుతున్నారు మరియు రవితేజ కూడా ఖిలాడి, రామారావు ఆన్ డ్యూటీ పరాజయం తరువాత హిట్ కొట్టాలని తహతహలాడుతున్నారు. దర్శకుడు త్రినాథరావు నక్కినతో మొదటిసారి జతకట్టిన ఈ చిత్రం వింటేజ్ రవితేజ రోజులను ప్రేక్షకులను తిరిగి ఆకర్షించేంతగా ఉందో లేదో చూద్దాం.

కథ:

ధమాకా అనేది కథానాయకుడు అన్ని అడ్డంకులను వ్యతిరేకంగా పోరాడే కథ. ఆనంద్ చక్రవర్తి అనే పారిశ్రామికవేత్తగా, స్వామి అనే మధ్యతరగతి వ్యక్తిగా రవితేజ రెండు పాత్రల్లో కనిపించారు. ఒక కార్పొరేట్ దిగ్గజం మధ్యతరగతి ప్రజల జీవితాలను స్వాధీనం చేసుకోవాలని చూస్తున్నప్పుడు ఏమి జరుగుతుంది? అతని ప్రయత్నాల వల్ల ఆనంద్ చక్రవర్తి మరియు స్వామి జీవితాలు ఎలా ముడిపడి ఉంటాయి అనేది ఈ చిత్రం యొక్క పూర్తి కథ.

నటీనటులు: స్వామిగా రవితేజ తనకు అలవాటైన పాత్రలో అద్భుతంగా నటించారు. ఆయన తన కెరీర్లో ఇలాంటి పాత్రను చాలా సార్లు చేశారు మరియు ఈ పాత్రను కూడా అంతే ఈజీగా చేశారు. ఇక ఆనంద్ చక్రవర్తిగా కూడా సమానమైన నటనను కనబరిచారు రవితేజ. మొత్తంగా ఈ సినిమాను పూర్తిగా తన భుజం పై మోశారు. ఇక సినిమాలో హీరోయిన్ శ్రీలీల అద్భుతంగా డాన్స్ చేసి రవితేజ ఎనర్జీకి సరిగ్గా సరిపోయారు. ఆమె పాత్రకు నటనకు పెద్దగా స్కోప్ లేనప్పటికీ, ఆమె తను ఉన్న సన్నివేశాలలో రాణించారు. మరియు తను ఖచ్చితంగా రాబోయే రోజుల్లో స్టార్ హీరోయిన్ అవుతారని అని చెప్పవచ్చు. తనికెళ్ల భరణి, జయరామ్, సచిన్ ఖేడ్కర్, తులసి వంటి తారాగణం ఎప్పటిలాగే తమ పాత్రలకు పూర్తి న్యాయం చేశారు.

విశ్లేషణ: ధమాకా సినిమాలో అతిపెద్ద బలహీనతలలో ఒకటి త్రినాథ రావు నక్కిన నేరేషన్ అనే చెప్పాలి. ఈ చిత్రంలో కార్పొరేట్ వర్సెస్ కామన్ మ్యాన్ అనే ప్రాథమిక భావన ఉన్నప్పటికీ, దర్శకుడు దానిని ప్రత్యేకంగా చూపించడానికి చాలా రకాలుగా ప్రయత్నించారు, ఇక్కడే సినిమా విఫలమయింది. రొటీన్ కమర్షియల్ మూవీకి భిన్నంగా ఈ సినిమాను తెరకెక్కించాలని చాలా జాగ్రత్తలు తీసుకున్నారు. అయితే కథాంశం, సినిమాలోని ట్విస్టులు ప్రేక్షకులు అంచనా వేసేలా, ఆశ్చర్యపోయేలా లేకపోవడం ఈ మాస్ ఎంటర్టైనర్ యొక్క ఇతర ప్రధాన లోపాలుగా చెప్పుకోవచ్చు.

ప్లస్ పాయింట్స్

  • రవితేజ నటన

తీర్పు:

దర్శకుడు త్రినాథరావు నక్కిన కమర్షియల్ పంథాలో సినిమాని సరిగ్గా నడిపి ఉంటే ధమాకా మరింత ఆసక్తికరంగా ఉండేది. అనవసరమైన ట్విస్టులు, బలవంతపు సన్నివేశాలు సినిమాను ఆస్వాదించకుండా చేస్తాయి. కమర్షియల్ ఎంటర్ టైనర్ సినిమాలు మీకు నచ్చెట్టు అయితే, ధమాకా ఖచ్చితంగా మిమ్మల్ని ఆకట్టుకుంటుంది.

18 Pages movie review: Another fresh attempt by Nikhil

0

Movie: 18 Pages
Rating: 2.75/5
Cast: Nikhil, Anupama Parameswaran, Brahmaji, Posani Krishna Murali
Director: Palanati Surya Pratap
Produced By: GA2 Pictures and Sukumar Writings
Release Date: 23rd December 2022

Nikhil’s 18 Pages is the second release of the week and like other movies from the young hero, this film also has a novel concept and fresh take. The film sees a return of the blockbuster pairing of Nikhil and Anupama Parameswaran and has so far managed to create a positive buzz with good music and an interesting trailer. How’s the execution and did Nikhil manage to catch the audience’s fancy yet again? Let’s check out.

Story: Nikhil (Siddhu) believes more in rationality and technology than emotions. His outlook on life is challenged when he comes across Nandini’s (Anupama Parameswaran) diary. How does he process this new information and what impact it has on his life? What happens to the relationship between Siddhu and Nandini is what the movie follows.

Performances: Nikhil has done these roles in the past and predictably looks natural and convincing as Siddhu. His characterization and performance have no issues at all but still, you will find yourself asking for more. More edge to the character with better execution from the director’s end in terms of character depth would have helped Nikhil even more. Anupama Parameswaran has a steady character flow and is efficient in her role. But, again just like Nikhil, the lack of memorable moments and intriguing characterization makes the overall role asking for more.

Analysis: On paper, 18 Pages is a terrific concept by Sukumar. However, the lack of emotional connection and unstable narration might lead to the audience losing interest in the second half. The love story doesn’t pull your heart’s strings as the director intended to and the basic premise loses its charm as the movie proceeds towards the climax. The constant jumping between the genres also could be slightly discomforting for many and a consistent narration would have heightened the movie experience further.

Plus Points:

  • Nikhil’s performance
  • Core Concept
  • Gopi Sundar’s music
  • First half

Minus Points:

  • Second half execution
  • Anupama Parameswaran’s characterization
  • Lack of consistency
  • Lack of engaging moments

Verdict: 

A fresh concept like 18 Pages requires more care when it comes to characterizations and emotional connect. The movie succeeds in achieving this in parts and had the momentum carried to the second half as well, it would have been a much more enjoyable experience.

Masks are mandatory in Karnataka cinema theaters because of Corona spike in other countries

0

Considering the sudden surge in Covid-19 cases in China, US, Japan and other nations, the Indian Central Government has directed all the State Governments to be careful regarding the guidelines which are to be followed to avoid Corona.

Karnataka Govt has made few rules according to the orders. On Thursday, the Karnataka Govt said it has made face masks mandatory in closed spaces such as theaters and malls, even those that are not air-conditioned.

Following recommendations of the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC), Health Minister K. Sudhakar held a meeting with officials at the Suvarna Vidhana Soudha here.

Sudhakar mentioned places like schools, colleges, theaters and other office areas must follow the mandatory mask norm. Open spaces are not an issue,” Sudhakar stated, adding that Karnataka is awaiting guidelines from the Union government.

Sudhakar said all Influenza-Related Illness (ILI) and Severe Acute Respiratory Illness (SARI) cases will be tested compulsorily for Covid-19, even if they are asymptomatic.

Ruling out the need for mass screening at airports, Sudhakar told the government would stick to random testing of 2 percent of passenger arrivals. “It is too early to talk about the transmittable speed of the new variant,” he added.

Meanwhile, the state has directed district administrations to take stock of oxygen and ICU beds. The government has also asked district hospitals to reserve beds for COVID-19 patients as a precautionary measure.

The worsening COVID-19 condition in China and a few other countries has rung alarm bells for the States as well as the Center. Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya yesterday informed the House regarding various measures that have been pressed into action.

Measuring the situation, Center has issued guidelines effective December 24, including mandatory random testing of 2 percent of international passengers at airports on arrival.
