Sudha Kongara Talks About Her Fight With Venkatesh

0

In a recent interview of the Tamil directors roundtable with Film Companion South, Sudha Kongara talked about her fight with Venkatesh during the shoot of Guru. Sudha Kongara and Venkatesh share a great bond with each other, Sudha wanted only Venky for Guru, as he was perfect for the role, but they also had their fights on the sets of Guru.

This came in response to a question from the host, Baradwaj Rangan who asked her why there are very few women directors in the Tamil film industry. This is what Sudha had to say in response to the question:

“There are a lot of reasons for this, physical reasons, marriage, mental and physical changes in the body, emotional reasons. It has always been a male-dominated, patriarchal society.”

In fact, I always fight with Venkatesh over this matter, Venkatesh keeps telling me that my husband is great for letting me make films, then I tell him why should he allow me? I’m balancing both my personal as well as professional life, it hasn’t been easy. I have worked hard.”

We all know Sudha Kongara as the successful director of Soorarai Pootru and Guru, but what we don’t know is her struggle to reach this position. Sudha has worked her way to the top, from assisting Mani Ratnam in 2000 to making her own films. It has taken her 20+ years to establish herself in the industry.

Her journey has not been easy either, if you take a look at her filmography, she has been able to make only 5 feature-length films in 22 years in the film industry.

Sudha’s next movie is with Maanadu star Simbu.

0

There have been reports of trouble in the marriage of Chiranjeevi’s daughter Sreeja and Kalyan Dhev. Over the past few weeks, many reports have emerged that the couple is at constant loggerheads and that all is not well.

Adding to this, Sreeja gave confirmation to the trouble in her married life by changing her Instagram handle name. She changed the name to Sreeja Konidela from Sreeja Kalyan.

The couple got married back in 2016 and post their wedding Kalyan Dhev made his Tollywood entry with Vijeta in 2018. In the same year, Kalyan Dhev and Sreeja were blessed with a daughter and named her Navishka.

Sreeja has another daughter Nivrithi from her first marriage which also ended in divorce. She separated from her first husband back in 2011 after filing a dowry harassment case.

The government on AP has announced that there will be a night curfew and only 50 % occupancy in theatres from tomorrow, that is 18th January. This decision has come in view of the rapid increase in COVID-19 cases in India. Just yesterday 4500 positive cases have been reported.

The government of AP lifted the night curfew and 50 % occupancy during the Sankranthi festival and will impose restrictions from tomorrow.

From tomorrow most of the theatres are scheduling their shows at 11 AM, 2 PM, 5 PM, and 8 PM to finish shows by 11 PM. Anyone who violates this will face strict action from the government. 50 % occupancy is also to be maintained strictly.

There are quite a few films running in theatres currently. Bangarraju has managed to collect a major portion of its money back in the weekend. It has performed extraordinarily well at the box office. Films like Hero and Rowdy Boys will however find it tough to recover their money back.

Hero has however generated a good reason from the public and might just do well. Rowdy Boys on the other hand opened to very poor collections and has generated disaster talks from the public.

If you are planning a visit to theatres, wear your masks, stay safe and be responsible.
