Pawan Kalyan... The Suspense is still On!

Pawan Kalyan and Venkatesh doing Oh My God remake is probably the biggest news of recent times. The film is currently in pre production stage and it is fully on as per the latest press note. They have even announced the release date of the film which is yet to hit the floors. As per an official statement, OMG remake will release on October 2ndthis year.
 
Surprisingly they have decided about the release date, but haven't yet fixed on the director! Who is going to direct this super special project? We are hearing that Dolly (Kishore) is the frontrunner to direct it. But there is no official confirmation regarding director as yet.
 
Why are they maintaining suspense about the director? Are they having other names in mind or what? Oh My God is not a regular fare and it does need a midas touch from the director to make it an impressive film. Maybe the makers still doubt the capabilities of Dolly in handling this big multi-starrer. As of now he is the only director who has high chances to bag this project.

Only Pawan Kalyan and me knew that!

Nithiin, who is self-proclaimed die-hard fan of Pawan Kalyan, has set the record straight in his latest media interaction. Reacting to sharp remarks made by few media reports which said that Nithiin is using Pawan Kalyan, Nithin said, ' No matter what you think or write about, our relation is sacred and true at heart. Pawan Kalyan and me only knew that. Pawan Kalyan is my God. I'll continue to refer him in my films notwithstanding of backtalk.'

'I have been Pawan's fan since my early days. One could find Pawan's posters in my films like Jayam and Sye. My admiration on him hasn't started now. It dates back to my childhood.'

Pawan Kalyan - Aam Admi's Andhra Kejriwal?

Almost sweeping some crucial constituencies, Arvind Kejriwal led Aam Admi Party stunned both ruling Congress and opposition BJP with their stunning performance in recent Delhi elections. Success always encourages and AAP is now eyeing many other key states for 2014 elections that are said to be fortes of Congress and BJP.

It is the present united Andhra Pradesh that has given 33 MP seats to Congress party, a crucial number for forming UPA 2 along with other parties. Naturally, AP becomes vital factor in deciding the ruler of India in 2014 as the state could solidly provide huge number of MPs. Latest reports on social circuits is busy spreading word that Powerstar Pawan Kalyan will join Aam Admi Party and take reigns as president of AP wing of the party. As Arvind Kejriwal is roaring high in Delhi politics, they say Pawan will throw his claws on AP politics, whether the state is united or separated. But for now, all these speculations about Pawan's taking over of AAP in AP remain just rumours, and an imaginary frame work of fans who wants to see him ride politics like a warrior.

As per official reports, AAP is now focusing on Mumbai as their second target, where the party will contest in 2014 in order to give jolt to Congress again. For Arvind Kejriwal, Hindi speaking states are easy to conquer and trouble arises down south and needs some mascots. That's why there is Pawan's name speculated all over.

Who's eligible for The Best Entertainer Crown ?

The meteoric rise of director Trivikram Srinivas with two back-to-back hits 'Julayi' and 'Atharintiki..' could give some sleepless nights to SS Rajamouli and Srinu Vytla who are holding the top position in T-town with a series of blockbusters and also necessitate a debate, that who is the best entertainer among three most popular dream merchants. 

Even though, T-town witnessed the emergence of some gen x directors, like Vamsi Paidipally, Harish Shankar, Sampath Nandi, Boyapati Srinu and Maruthi who showed few sparks but they need to deliver more hits, to lay claim for the top slot. So, lets see, on whom the crown of best entertainer sits pretty well. No doubt, Rajamouli stands taller among all directors, by exploring various genres like socio-fantasies like Magadheera and Eega, sports-centric movie (sye) and a laugh-riot (Maryada rammana) and now sets out to make a historical film 'Baahuballi', to have definite edge over his rivals, with his creative genius, whereas, Trivikram is not far behind in success rate, but one thing for sure, he likes to play if safe and doesn't take up novel plots or genres and likes to work around simple plots, but heavily relies on his inherent strength 'flair for comedy' and comes up with very powerful punch lines, to keep audience entertained. Giving these two a stiff completion- is Srinu Vytla, the master of humour-driven films like 'Dhookudu', 'Baadshah' who sometimes overlooks 'logic' and like to etch out lot of humour and accodomates loads of comedy characters into his script, (particularly Brahmanandam), but assures laugh-a-minute. 

Even though, threesome have preferences over picking up 'plots' but they mostly rely on song-& dance routine, separate comedy tracks and other so-called ingredients, to engage audience for 3 hours. All of them can design powerful roles for stars and Rajamouli showed it with hits like 'Yamadonga' ( NTR), 'Chatrapathi (Prabhas) but later began to work with lesser known actors like Sunil, before returning to star-driven film 'Baahubali'. Whereas, Trivikram began the other way round, as he scored a hit with young actor Tarun (Nuvve Nuvve), before moving to the big league of stars Mahesh babu(Athadu), Pawan Kalyan (Jalsa) and Mahesh (Khaleja) but couldn't deliver hit with Chiranjeevi in 'Jai Chiranjeeva', since too much comedy on a big star, backfires at times, without a plot, that justifies their superstardom. Even Srinu Vytla, flip flopped with stars like Chiranjeevi (Andarivadu), but found his winning streak with Ravi Teja (Venky) flamboyance and then tastes sucess with Mahesh (Dookudu) and NTR. So he has developed a brand of his own for 'entertainment' and many directors are finding it easy to emulate his formula and love to tickle the pink bones of the viewers.

Whereas, Rajamouli graph has been almost steady for the last decade, but Trivikram became a comeback specialist since he had big flops inbetween to dent his progress, whereas Srinu's also had non money-spinners like 'Namo Venkatesa' but reached the top with one solid hit 'Dhookudu'. All of them capable of handling big stars and can inspire big stars to put in some good performance, as all of them are considered tough task masters. All of them draw inspiration from Hollywood movies like Eega (coackroach), Magadheera (Troy, Braveheart) and Julayi was inspired by 'Italian Job' and Srinu's 'Dhookudu' was rip off of 'Good Bye Lenin' but they are good re-working on these hired themes and make it believable, by sketching boy-next-door protoganists and their simplicity and good-heartedness eclipses the unbelievability factor, in hero's task accomplishment.  

In terms of versality, Rajamouli leads the pack, but Trivikram and Srinu are easy to emulate and discovered the formula for success in T-town humuor-ridden star movies- and don't mind overlooking 'logic; to create magic, whereas Rajamouli is a stickler for perfection and doesn't like to compromise easily. So for now, Rajamouli, is entitled for the crown, but Trivikram-Srinu could also stake claim, by trying some different genres and catapult T-town to a different level and break the notion, that T-town can deliver only 'no brainer' stuff.

Pawan kalyan and Renu desai in love again !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whatever it is with mega family, they always turn to be huge newsmakers in the media and that's the popularity of these heroes. Barring the entire troupe, let's come straight to one mega hero, Pawan Kalyan, whose personal life always fascinates media. If someone out there is thinking that his boat is getting shaken, then they need this clarity immediately.

Pawan's live-in partner for long and his wife from 2009 after they got traditionally married, Renu Desai became a soft-spot for media since her relocation to Pune. While the former heroine is actually there to produce few Marathi movies with support of Pawan, it is highly buzzed that the celebrity couple are at logger heads. Many media houses have even confirmed it through their print mouth pieces that divorce happened already, and alimony is also settled. At the same time, Renu is busy in Pune with her first production venture and Pawan is finding no time with Atttarintiki Daredi shoot and release following back to back. But to prove that there is no fire or smoke, here comes the big fact.

Celebrating her birthday the other day, Renu revealed to national media that she used to call Pawan everyday to get her doubts on film production cleared. At the same time, Pawan was caught going Pune, and some fans clicked his pictures both at Shamshabad airport and at Pune airport too. This clearly confirms that Pawan went to Pune to wish his lovely wife, and that punctures the air in all rumour-tyres. No more space for gossips on Pawan's married life. All is well!

Prabhas Getting Ready To Beat Pawan Kalyan?

The domination of the mega heroes continues at the Tollywood box office and after being in the number one position for a long time, Ram Charan’s ‘Magadheera’ made way for Pawan Kalyan’s ‘Attarintiki Daredi’.  But the industry talk is that this record is not going to be there for long. 

The reason for that is Prabhas and his magnum opus ‘Bahubali’.  The film itself is being made at a budget of Rs 100 crores so one can imagine at what range it will have its collections.  For that matter ‘AD’ was made in 50 crores and it touched nearly 85 crores. But the way things are happening, it looks like Prabhas is getting ready to beat Pawan. 

‘Bahubali’ is scheduled for a release in 2015 and that would mean Pawan will have two more releases in that window.  So, if Pawan’s new ventures can get past ‘AD’ even then ‘Bahubali’ is expected to sweep all the records and create a new one.  

In that case, the new number one hero for Tollywood in 2015 is going to be Prabhas and no one else. Let us see what happens.

Gabbar Singh 2 date locked finally!

Putting long-wait to the rest, Power Star Pawan Kalyan is all set to begin the shoot of his much awaited Gabbar Singh franchise - Gabbar Singh 2. If all goes according to plan, the movie will take off on January 25. The delay in the shoot is apparently due to changes in script. And of course, the woes of casting a right heroine alongside Pawan is haunting the makers of the film.

Pawan Kalyan, who is riding high with back-to-back blockbusters like Gabbar Singh, Atharintiki Daredi, will be seen as Venkata Ratnam Naidu alias Gabbar Singh in the sequel as well. But unlike its original, where the film was set in Kondaveedu of Guntur district, the sequel will see Pawan Kalyan in Chambel Valley in Madhya Pradesh as Gabbar Singh gets transferred from Kondaveedu to Chambel Valley, which has been a haven for Maoists and dacoits for decades.Certainly this will be anxious and much awaited moment for all hardcore Pawan fans.

Pawan Kalyan loses, Mahesh Babu gains?

Power Star Pawan Kalyan and Super Star Mahesh Babu both vying up for No. 1 slot is a known fact by now. With Mahesh having a spate of endorsements under his belt, Pawan is slightly lagging in the race for sometime. But after recent back-to-back blockbusters Gabbar Singh and Atharintiki Daredi (expected to rake in Rs 100 crore), Pawan's stocks are soaring. This has prompted popular brands to run after Pawan.

The latest is that a leading soft drink brand, being endorsed by Mahesh for a long time now, has approached Pawan and Pawan too was keen on being its brand ambassador. But Pawan apparently quoted a whopping remuneration as charge and looks like it got backfired. We hear that the company is forced to have second thoughts on roping in Pawan and may extend the contract with Mahesh. With this Pawan's loss appears to be Mahesh's gain.

Besides, Pawan had also turned down two other brand endorsement offers including a jewellery brand presently being endorsed by Jr NTR and a liquor brand. What's happening Pawan? No doubt you're on top post AD became sleeper hit. And this would have been the ideal time for you to cash in on the popularity. Isn't it Pawan?

Samantha better than Mahesh and Pawan!

 

Tollywood's lucky girl Samantha is still riding high with Attarintiki Daredi's grand success. Despite Ramayya Vastavayya failure Sam is still ruling the roost with two big hits of the year, AD and SVSC in her kitty. Samantha now has the number one hit under her name. AD has put her on top of everything.

Samantha now has three of the top five hits of Tollywood to her credit. Attarintiki Daredi is the number one film and her Dookudu and SVSC are at number 4 and 5 places respectively. She is the only Tollywood celebrity to have 3 films in the top 5. Not even Mahesh and Pawan Kalyan have this record.

Both Pawan and Mahesh have two films each in the top five films. Pawan's AD and Gabbar Singh are standing at first and third place, whereas Mahesh has number four and five to his credit. Ram Charan has Magadheera which is at second place and the other heroines to feature in this elite club are Kajal and Shruti who have their films at second and third spots respectively.

Pawan Brand wins overseas!

 

If a Telugu movie extracts Rs. 20 crores in the native market itself, it is a comfortably handsome rewarding amount for a movie and it is considered to be hit and the producer would be happy.

But what if a movie just makes that amount for its overseas market? It is nothing but a splendid and never broken record in the near future. That record has been set by the latest movie of Pawan Kalyan's Attarintiki Daaredi. Every body are appreciating Hero Pawan and the Director and writer Trivikram for making this magic of business.

The Attarintiki daaredi paved its own way even to overseas just by reaping an amount of Rs. 20 crores, where as the previous record was Rs. 5 crores by Magadheera. Then it was considred to be the much spoken record.

With by getting Rs. 20 crore in overseas market and reaping more than Rs. 100 crores in the native market now every body are anxious who would beat this record and who would cross the 100 crores bench mark next?

Now every body are eagerly awaiting for Baabubali. As the Bahubali is getting ready to be released simultaneously in Telugu, Tamil, Hindi... and the Bollywood has the potentiality of getting Rs. 100 crores market, the movie market it keeping a hope on this movie. The time will prove soon whether it is a hope or a hype.

Its the value of two brands PAVAN AND TRIVIKRAM !
