Telugu Film Producers Council condemns YCP MLA’s statements

The row of comments between AP Government and Tollywood is escalating day by day with both sides making strong statements against each other. Right after YCP MLA Prasanna Kumar Reddy’s controversial statement, the Telugu Film Producers Council issued a statement.

In a strongly-worded statement, TFPC stated that:

“It is unfortunate that the honorable MLA has such an impression of the film industry. The success rate in the film industry is 2-5%. Film producers spend crores of rupees to make films and more often than not, they suffer huge losses. There are a few producers who have lost everything and are taking a pension amount of Rs 3000 per month from the Producers’ council. That is how dire the situation can be. It is not right to speak ill of the film industry and its people,” said the statement.

The YCP MLA had earlier said that the Tollywood industry doesn’t care about AP at all and the heroes sitting in Hyderabad, charge crores as remuneration. Reddy also said that the government’s action against Tollywood was for the sake of people.

Mahesh Babu Nephew Ashok Galla’s HERO Trailer Talk

Mahesh Babu Nephew Ashok Galla’s HERO Trailer Talk

The trailer of Ashok Galla’s debut film HERO is out now. In a trailer spanning nearly 2 minutes, it revolves around the life of our Hero, played by Ashok Galla. He wants to enter the film industry, and for that, he needs a director. What will he do in his search to find a director? Will he succeed? This forms the rest of the story.

We’ve previously seen a film about the struggles of entering the film industry in Ravi Teja’s Neninthe. This is an extremely interesting concept that has not been explored enough. Ravi Teja was a director, here Ashok Galla is an actor, or rather, a HERO.

From the trailer, it is quite clear that this movie has a lot of commercial elements. There is fighting, kissing, warnings, and a pinch of acting. The chemistry between Ashok and heroine Niddhi Agerwal looks promising. The duo also shares liplock with each other.

The movie needs to be credited for its production values. The film is shot on a large scale with no compromises on the budget. There is a grand sequence in a desert, exquisite sets for dance numbers, and much more. The film is also being produced by Ashok Galla’s mother itself, Padmavati Galla.

There are a few concerns regarding the template of the film. It seems to be following the age-old commercial template that has expired now. Ashok Galla looks stiff in his dialogue delivery, but this is excusable as it is his debut.

The film also stars a stellar ensemble cast of Jagapathi Babu, Vennela Kishore, Brahmaji, and Naresh among others. Sriram Aditya, who has previously directed Devadas is the director of the film. Ghibran is the music director.

Siddharth faces backlash for his ‘crass’ tweet on Saina Nehwal

Actor Siddharth is an extremely opinionated and vocal individual. The ‘Mahasamudram’ actor doesn’t shy away from expressing his criticism for the government and has been one of its sharpest critics. While criticism is fine in a democracy, things took an ugly turn recently. The actor, to express his disagreement with India’s champion Badminton player Saina Nehwal tweeted a rather crass wordplay.

https://twitter.com/Actor_Siddharth/status/1478936743780904966

It all started when Saina Nehwal tweeted regarding the recent Punjab incident that involved PM’s security fiasco. She stated that the nation can’t claim to be safe if the PM himself isn’t safe.

Siddharth in retaliation to this tweet by Saina posted an objectionable Tweet that has caught the attention and criticism of the National Commission of Women, His co-star Khusboo Sundar, singer Chinmayee and a number of Twitter users who have all lashed out at Siddharth. Many have even requested Twitter authorities to disable his account while others have requested for a stricter action from authorities.

Meanwhile, the actor has issued a clarification about his intention of Tweet. He said that it is a common phrase and there was no insult intended.

AP Government imposes restrictions for theaters

In what will be a major blow to the upcoming Sankranti releases, the AP Government has decided to impose occupancy restrictions across the state. the theatres will now be functioning at only 50% occupancy all over. Adding to this, there will be a night curfew in effect from 11 PM to 5 AM.

Earlier last year in April, the AP government had imposed similar restrictions in the state. The decision has been taken in wake of rising covid cases across the country due to the second wave of covid. Already a number of other states have imposed occupancy cuts in theatres while others have even started a partial lockdown.

Looking at this development, the decision to postpone by RRR and Radhe Shyam seems to be a wise move. The Sankranti season was supposed to be a blockbuster one with RRR, Radhe Shyam, and Bheemla Nayak releasing.

However, everything changed after Bheemla Nayak had to be pushed to the February release, and RRR and Radhe Shyam also deferred their release due to rising Covid cases.

Now, Nagarjuna’s ‘Bangarraju’, Dil Raju’s ‘Rowdy Boy’s, Ashok Galla’s debut film ‘Hero’ and ‘Super Machi’ are lined up for the festive season.

After Baahubali, Allu Arjun’s Pushpa elevates Telugu cinema

Icon Star Allu Allu Arjun’s Pushpa is making waves at the pan-India level. The film might have suffered losses due to the AP ticket pricing issues and limited occupancies, but that didn’t stop its popularity from soaring. Pushpa made its digital premiere on Friday and has been receiving wide accolades from all quarters.

The rising Corona cases stopped many from going to theatres. However, a timely OTT release ensured that the film gets a wider reach and recognition. Celebrities from different industries, sportspersons, and netizens have been raving about the film over the weekend.

Back in 2015, it was Prabhas and SS Rajamouli’s Baahubali that made heads turn. The subsequent Bhaahubali 2 took Telugu cinema to global levels and brought massive pan-India recognition to Prabhas. Now with Pushpa’s other versions performing so well, and netizens raving about the film after the digital premiere, it’s Allu Arjun’s Pushpa’s turn.

Despite receiving mixed reviews, the revenue that it has generated in other languages is massive. There is no doubt that Allu Arjun is the sole driving factor behind Pushpa’s success. Allu Arjun showcased a one-man show during the promotions up north and is the sole reason for the movie doing so well in other languages.

Anupama Liplock With Ashish Becomes Talk Of The Town

Anupama Parameswaran’s liplock with Ashish has become the new talk of the town. This is the first time a debutant hero has been involved in an intimate scene with a top actress. This is due to the professional bond that Anupama shares with Ashish’s uncle Dil Raju, who is launching Ashish at a grand level.

In the trailer that was released a couple of days ago, Anupama was seen in a liplock with debutant hero Ashish, which sparked the attention of many people.

While some are praising Anupama for this bold move, some are trolling her for the liplock. Nevertheless, it has gotten a lot of attention from media and news outlets. As they say, any form of publicity is good publicity. All this will only help the film to bring in more audiences to the theatres.

The film will release on 14th January along with Bangarraju. The film is releasing on a grand level with multiple screens and theatres. This is due to Dil Raju and Sirish’s (Ashish’s dad) reputation as top distributors.

Rowdy Boys also stars Srikanth Iyengar, Karthik Rathnam and, Sahidev Vikram among others. Sree Harsha Konuganti is the director of the movie. DSP is the music director of the movie. R. Madhie has shot the movie.

బంగార్రాజు విడుదలకు ముందే నాగార్జునపై ఎగ్జిబిటర్స్ ఫైర్

బంగార్రాజు ప్రెస్ మీట్‌లో టిక్కెట్టు రేట్ల విషయంపై నాగార్జున ఈ మధ్య వివాదాస్పద వ్యాఖ్యలు చేశారు.

ఇప్పుడు ఈ అంశంపై చర్చించేందుకు తూర్పుగోదావరి ప్రాంతంలోని థియేటర్ల యజమానులు, ఎగ్జిబిటర్లు రేపు సమావేశం కానున్నారు. ఏపీలో టిక్కెట్ రేట్లను సమర్ధిస్తూ నాగార్జున చేసిన బాధ్యతారాహిత్య వ్యాఖ్యలపై యజమానులు తీవ్ర ఆగ్రహం వ్యక్తం చేస్తున్నారు.

పంచాయత్ రాజ్‌లో GO ప్రకారం టిక్కెట్‌ల ధరలు ఆశ్చర్యకరంగా కనీసం టిక్కెట్‌కి 20, 15 మరియు 10 రూపాయల వద్ద ఉన్నాయి. ఎయిర్ కండీషనర్లు మరియు మంచి మెయింటెనెన్స్ ఉన్న థియేటర్లకు కూడా ఇదే పరిస్థితి. ఈ తక్కువ ధరలకు థియేటర్ల యజమానులు తమ థియేటర్లను నడపడానికి చాలా కష్టపడుతున్నారు.

తమ థియేటర్లలో బంగార్రాజు విడుదలపై చర్చించేందుకు రేపు సమావేశం కానున్నారు. నాగార్జునకి ఈ రేట్లు ఎలా ఓకే అవుతాయో అని ఎగ్జిబిటర్లు మండిపడుతున్నారు. ఇండస్ట్రీ మొత్తం ఈ విషయంపై పోరాడుతున్న వేళ నాగార్జున అనవసరంగా టికెట్ రేట్ల విషయంలో మరిన్ని విభజనలు, వివాదాలు సృష్టించారు.

గతంలో టిక్కెట్‌ ధరలపై తమ సమస్యలను చెప్పాలంటూ సమ్మెకు దిగారు. ప్రభుత్వ నిర్ణయాన్ని వ్యతిరేకిస్తూ యాజమాన్యాలు థియేటర్లను కూడా బంద్‌ చేశాయి.

తూర్పుగోదావరి థియేటర్ యజమానులు కూడా బంగార్రాజును తమ థియేటర్లలో విడుదల చేయకూడదని ప్లాన్ చేస్తున్నారు.
