Nag should shun character roles ?

Agreed that Nagarujuna's last few films like 'Greekuveerudu' and 'Bhai', tanked at the box office, but Nagarjuna shouldn't lose his track and jump into character roles bandwagon, says a distributor. Since even his colleauge Venkatesh realised his mistake of doing 'Seethamma..' and jumped out of 'Govindudu Andari..', since his stardom was getting affected. Even today, Nagarjuna market is around 15 crore plus and could coolly do a matured or different love story or a family drama and pull in crowds, since his pet fan following of girls, women and family audience are intact. 

Just a matter of time, before he bounced back into reckoning, until they shouldn't do brotherly roles with NTR or anyone else?

I want 'Manam' to be a befitting send-off to my father

Actor Akkineni Nagarjuna says he wants "Manam", last film of his late father Telugu movie icon Akkineni Nageswara Rao, who was more than just a father to him, to be a befitting farewell. 

Rao passed away Jan 22 due to intestinal cancer. He was 89-years old. "I want his last film 'Manam' to be a befitting send-off to a man who was much more than just a father to me. He was on the sets of the film when he collapsed (last year). When they opened him up he was in the fifth stage of cancer. 

Until then he was in the pink of health," read a post from Nagarjuna on his official Facebook page. Nageswara Rao had completed all the shooting but for one song. "The film spans a period from 1920 to 2013. My father plays a 90-year old. Except that incomplete song he completed all the shooting," he posted. 

"Fifteen days after surgery he was at home in bed when he said, 'Bring all the dubbing equipment and do my dubbing for 'Manam' before I get worse, or you will get a mimicry artiste to do my dubbing. He made sure we he completed the film.

 It's now being released on March 31st," Nagarjuna further posted. Directed by Vikram Kumar, "Manam" also features Nagarjuna and his son Akkineni Naga Chaitanya. It's the first time actors from three generations of Akkineni clan worked together.

Nag's Fears On Akkineni Akhil?

The time is fast approaching for another star kid to enter Tollywood. This time, it is from Akkineni family and the boy is Akhil, son of Nagarjuna and Amala. As part of that, it is heard Nagarjuna is having his fears on his boy’s debut. Recently, Nag admitted in an interview that he did a big mistake by not showing proper attention on his other son Naga Chaitanya’s debut. 

Now, sources from Annapurna Studios reveal Nag is bent upon not repeating such a mistake. As part of that, it is heard that Deva Katta has been chosen as the director for Akhil’s debut. Buzz is that Nag told Deva Katta to narrate his story to Trivikram Srinivas and if that is approved they can go ahead. 

Trivikram reportedly liked the story and gave the green signal. Sources say Nag assigned the task of dialogues, screenplay to Trivikram and he agreed. All this goes to show that Nag is taking special care for Akhil’s arrival. While he is doing his best to ensure Akhil’s debut would be grand and well, there are those who are commenting as to why he showed so much neglect when Chaitu was arriving.
