Vijay to give green signal to Vamshi Paidipally

0

As we reported a few days ago, director Vamshi Paidipally has obtained a go-ahead from Thalapathy Vijay for his upcoming film. The ‘Master’ actor has been in plans to do a direct Telugu film for quite some time. Noticing this, multiple directors and producers approached Vijay. However, it was Vamshi, who got the final preference. Dil Raju will produce this movie.

Sources tell us that the film is going to be an action-drama filled with emotions and entertainment. As soon as Vijay fulfils his other commitments, he will begin shooting for the Vamshi directorial.

While some of Vijay’s movies like Katthi and Thuppaki have done incredibly well in Telugu states, his following in Telugu is relatively less as compared to that of the likes of Suriya and Rajnikanth. This was the main reason behind Vijay’s Telugu plans.

After the success of ‘Maharshi’, Vamshi has been lying low and a film with the Tamil superstar might just be the boost he would need to get into the big league.

0

Adivi Sesh joined the Covid relief works going on and made a generous move. The actor/writer set up a water plant in King Koti District Hospital for the hygienic supply of water for patients, frontline workers, and the staff. The hospital had no supply of clean water for the last eight months and was functioning on packaged water.

“I guess we are all trying to do our bit. Our nation needed to be better prepared and now we need to respond to this crisis better. The response starts with humanity,” said Adivi Sesh.

The medical staff along with the patients had no access to clean drinking water and had to carry their own supply of water through plastic bottles. Working with no water in the PPE kits often led to dehydration of the medical staff.

Earlier, Adivi Sesh had arranged for nearly 850 liters of packaged drinking water for the hospital. The shortage of water in the hospital came to the fore after few media outlets had reported the issue. Sesh immediately spoke to the hospital superintendent and resolved the issue

The hospital which is a Level 2 Covid care centre with nearly 300 moderate to severe COVID patients has had no drinking water supply for eight months.

Adivi Sesh, meanwhile is getting ready for some exciting projects post-Major. He will be next seen in HIT 2: The Second Case. He will be replacing Vishwak Sen who played the lead in the first installment of the movie. A sequel of Sesh’s 2018 hit Goodachari is also on the cards next.
