Gabbar' Mahesh - 'Murari' Charan

Earlier we have seen many instances when Mahesh Babu and Ram charan competed at BO.Now the star heroes set for another war.Mahesh Babu's Aagadu hit the screens today and Ram Charan is all set to unleash his Govindudu Andari Vaadele soon.

Mahesh Aagadu is getting average to above average reviews from audience .Mahesh fans enjoying the movie to the core.While the joy seem to be unstoppable, critics say that Srinu Vaitla has just followed Gabbar Singh in the first half of the film. People who saw Aagadu is saying that it has shades of Gabbar singh.

Keeping Mahesh aside another comparison came to light about Ram charan GAV  movie.GAV has the shades of Mahesh's Murari.

It has Krishna Vamsi's trademark-style touch to family entertainer and recalls you the director's previous films Murari and Chandamama.Many are wondering whether Krishna Vami is canning  Murari sequel with Cherry.For now ‘’Gabbar’’ Mahesh was confirmed and fans looking whether  GAV be turn as Murari of Charan or not. Once Govindudu is released everything will come clear.

Mahesh And Charan Took That Burden

Tolllywood's star heroes are whipped by cine lovers continuously as they are not delivering more entertainment for them. This is regarding the number of movies each hero is getting released in a year. Listening to the request of audiences, it seems like Mahesh and Charan are really working hard.

Post the success of Attarintiki Daredi in 2013, Pawan is busy with politics and we could see him on silver screen for 2014 only if he comes up with Gopala Gopala. Otherwise his Gabbar Singh 2 is not in the vicinity at the moment. Coming to Allu Arujn, he's happy with Race Gurram but his next project is yet to kick off. This may not help him release another movie in 2014 itself. Prabhas' Baahubali will release in 2015 only, while he scored hit with Mirchi last year. Unlike all these big stars, Mahesh and Charan are racing ahead to deliver their second treat again in 2014.

Already these two big stars had their 1-Nenokkadine and Yevadu release for last Sankranthi. And now they will see Aagadu and Govindudu Andarivadele hitting screens for Dasara. It's time to say that Mahesh and Charan have taken the onus of entertaining audience couple of times in a year. Hope other heroes too undertake such burden and make Tollywood glitter.

Two hurdles for Mahesh and Charan

Till date, only Superstar Mahesh and Mega Powerstar Ram Charan are largely spoken when it comes to the upcoming Dasara season. Their movies are hitting the tinsel town on that eve, Mahesh's Aagadu on Sep 15th and Charan's Govindudu Andarivadele on October 1st. But this feat will not be a cake walk for them, if we bring two other star heroes into the scene.

Aagadu and Govindudu have simply got their things set nicer by meticulously planning a two week gap. Much to their surprise, on the eve of Independence Day and the ensuing weekend, Jr NTR's Rabhasa and Surya's Sikander are hitting screens on August 14 and 15 respectively. Imagine the scene for Aagadu if at all Jr NTR and Surya score big blockbusters. Mahesh's movie will fall short of theatres for sure. Though it manages to get many screens somehow, theatres at crucial centres will be missed.

And if the run of Rabhasa and Sikander continues for long and Mahesh too scores a hit with Aagadu, then that impact will surely fall on Govindudu Andarivadele. These days, films are getting released in large number of theatres, and minting their money and quitting theatres in no time. In this kind of trade scenario, it will be tough if last comers, here Mahesh and Charan in this case. Let us see how they overcome these two hurdles.

'Gabbar Singh 2' With Another Mega Hero?

Powerstar Pawan Kalyan has plunged deep into politics and he is getting ready to address media for the second time next week. In the wake of this development, we wonder what happens to most hyped 'Gabbar Singh 2' but here is one serious development.

High power second edition of blockbuster 'Gabbar Singh' is what fans are waiting for from a time, before this 'Jana Sena' thing has set them on a new plane altogether. Pawan too uttered that he will be contemplating to quit movies for the sake of his political war against Congress party. In that case, what will happen to GS2 is the first question that comes to our mind. It is heard that Pawan Kalyan made sure to director Sampath Nandi that if he is not in a position to do the movie, another mega hero will be acting in his shoes. In fact, this comes as a shocker to Powerstar's fans as they cannot expect no one else in that power packed mass cop role.

Any guesses about who will be taking up the role of Gabbar Singh from mega family, if not Pawan? Of course, two  big stars are Ram Charan and Allu Arjun who could grace with ease in Powerstar's uniform, but we have to see what happens really.

Mahesh to fill Pawan's vacuum?

Among five to six big stars, Mahesh Babu would be heaving a sigh of relief since his arch rival Pawan Kalyan is stepping into politics to ease the competition and make it much easier for him to attain numero uno slot. 

Industry pundits are busy predicting that Pawan would lose his strong fan base, like many other earlier stars for his political stance, and ultimately only benefit Mahesh Babu who is expected to take up the mantle of uncrowned king of T-town by consolidating his fan base. 


If Election Commissions stops Pawan's political stint, otherwise Mahesh who is riding high with two 50-crore hits "Dookudu" and "Seethamma Vakitlo Sirimalle Chettu" and 40-core "Businessman" is expected to overcome his recent debacle "Nenokadine", with "Aagadu" and would be new Badshah of T-town. Since other contenders like Ram Charan, Jr NTR, Prabhas and Allu Arjun are few notches behind Mahesh. Mahesh's fans are curiously waiting for Pawan's big announcement on March 14 (Friday) as they want to see their matinee idol to take over the reigns of T-town.

Yevadu is a hit, but no use!

Only one percent of movies prove to be successful at an average per year. So whoever delivers should be in great demand. Most of the directors will be chased by heroes and directors after they score hits for the same reason. However there is one director that is not very much in demand in spite of delivering the only hit of 2014 till now.

That director is none other than Vamsi Paidipally, who scored a decent hit with Yevadu, which went on to collect a worldwide share of over Rs. 47 crore. Vamsi's past two films Yevadu and Brindavanam were good hits, but he has no takers at the moment. Although Yevadu is a successful film, Vamsi's style of filmmaking and his ideas are not up to date.

Vamsi follows a formulaic template and doesn't try to put a stamp of his own on his movies. There are many directors that follow the same formula and most of the heroes are not keen on working with them unless they are desperate to score a hit. This is the reason why Vamsi is still on the waiting list of many star heroes. He took more than three years to make another movie after Brindavanam and it looks like he will have to wait for long before he signs his next too.

Biggest Insult For Telugu Hero

There are no two words when we say that for superstars, the following is huge and very sensitive. Even a small negative line tends to offend many. And now, hero Ram Charan has got the biggest insult he can ever imagine. 

Each year, the Bollywood folks conduct the ‘Kela Awards’ recognizing those films and actors which became the worst disasters. This year Ram Charan has reportedly been chosen to receive the Kela award for the worst acting and ‘Zanjeer’ got the worst film ever remade. Being a Telugu we must condemn this unanimously. 

If only this was done to a Tamil hero then the TN folks would have rattled the entire event and its organizers. As such, internally the Telugu folks can do whatever they want amongst themselves and even blast Charan but when other state folks tend to touch or insult our heroes then all of us should stand up and give it back. The empathy and sensitivity goes to Charan wherever he is and such acts need to be curbed greatly.

Why Ram Charan & NTR delaying?

It can be said that though Jr NTR is senior than Allu Arjun and Bunny is senior than Ram Charan in terms of their tenure as heroes, all three of them are put on the same table in terms of comparison. 

Recently a new discussion happened in the filmnagar club between two directors regarding the trio. News is that Bunny is all set to become a proud father and the point was why Charan and Junior are delaying that. 

Well, the logic goes that once a young hero becomes a father, the stardom begins to dip down because youth tend to rate him as a grown up man than a youngster. 

However, the other director stated that there is no logic like that and quoted the examples of many who are married with kids but enjoyed stardom for a long time. 

Anyhow, this is the personal matter of Junior and Ram Charan so better to keep away from all such topics and let both of them plan their family as per their convenience.

Trade report: Charan scores over Mahesh

Sankranthi season is over and we have a clear winner in Yevadu. Despite releasing with low expectations compared to 1 Nenokkadine and in less theaters, Yevadu managed to overtake the former in first week. Nenokkadine managed to collect a share of Rs. 25 crore worldwide in its first week. Yevadu got 36.5 crores plus first week share worldwide taking it to the second spot in all time best openers.

Attarintiki Daredi is sitting high and firm at the top place with a first week share of Rs. 48 crore. Yevadu would have reached Rs. 40 crore mark if it was released in more theaters. Despite releasing in less number of theaters compared to recent biggies took the box office by storm. 1 Nenokkadine has to collect Rs. 58 crore from the theatricals to breakeven and it looks impossible from this point.

Yevadu on the other hand has high chances to make it to Rs. 50 crore club. We have to wait and see how this film holds in the second week especially in the week days. There are no new releases in this week and audience are left with only Pongal films.

Yevadu First week shares

Nizam         : 9.3 crore
Andhra        : 15 crore
Ceded         : 6.2 crore
Karnataka    : 4 crore
Rest of India: 85 lakhs
Overseas     : 1.5 crore

1 Nenokkadine First week Shares

NIzam     : 7 crore
Andhra    : 8 crore
Ceded     : 3 crore
Overseas : 4 crore
Karnataka and Rest of India: 3.5 crore

Yevadu team's patience and confidence paid off

Ram Charan's Yevadu is doing wonders at the box office taking full advantage of Sankranthi festival. This film is doing miracles in B and C centers in particular. Yevadu is expected to collect Rs. 10 crore share in Ceded and Rs. 6 crore share in Uttarandhra going by the trend.

This film should have been released on July 31st, but has been postponed just two days before release due to United Andhra movement. From then on team Yevadu has been waiting to release this film at right time. Due to constant postponements everyone has doubted about the film's fate and content. There were rumors about fear of failure and reshoots.

But Dil Raju took the gamble of releasing it for Pongal by pitting it against red hot 1 Nenokkadine. That film ended up as a huge disaster and it has enhanced the success of Yevadu to a great extent. Confidently releasing it against 1 Nenokkadine has boosted the success of Yevadu. Holding the release of film for more than five months and taking the gamble of Sankranthi release has made Yevadu successful. In fact this film is doing exceedingly well with respect to its content. Timing of the release is also crucial for a big film and Yevadu is reaping rich benefits out of it.

Teaser Talk: Charan shakes the floor

Ram Charan has one again taken to dancing floor with the latest teaser of his forthcoming flick 'Yevadu'. This time, he makes sure that his fans will get a taste of what they are going to see on January 12th on silver screen.

Latest 30 second teaser of Ram Charan's 'Freedom' song from 'Yevadu' is creating ripples now. With Charan moving swiftly on the floor, and shaking it with his hard dancing steps, no doubt fans are going to lose their breath while watching it on silver screen. With these flawless dance moves, the young mega hero is piling up expectations on the movie with positive vibes. Also director Vamsi Paidipally should be appreciated for that visual appeal in the song, as it requires lot of money and vision to bring-back memories of Chiru's introduction song with this one.

Yevadu is hitting screens in a couple of days on January 12th, and touted to be a thriller, this flick features Allu Arjun, Kajal, Shruti, Amy Jackson and other along with Mega powerstar Charan. To feel the excitement, catch the teaser live in action folks!

'One' Vs 'Yevadu': Pre Release Talk

Clearing all the clouds, it is now confirmed that Sankranthi 2014 is going to be very busy at the Tollywood box office.  At the same time, there is also going to be a tough fight between the two big superstars Mahesh Babu and Ram Charan. 

Their respective films ‘1-Nenokkadine’ and ‘Yevadu’ are releasing on January 10th and 12th respectively.   With this, many have begun digging out to see how best the films are and here is a look at the talk. 

 In terms of ‘1-Nenokkadine’ the talk is that Screenplay is good and Mahesh-Kriti onscreen chemistry has come out very well. Even the action sequences are being considered first of its kind in Tollywood. 

As for ‘Yevadu’ talk is that the storyline is good and the twists in the story will also hook the audience very well.  On a comparative note, the songs of ‘Yevadu’ are getting better response than ‘1-Nenokkadine’.  But overall both films are entering the theatres with good and positive talk.

Yevadu key 'twist' leaked!

Yevadu movie is finally hitting screens on 12th of this month and the team is pretty confident that it will strike right chords with the audience. Recently released theatrical trailer is impressive. It gave an impression that this movie is a full 'package' of all the necessary commercial ingredients.

Yevadu movie runs in a commercial format but has a novel point that 'surprises' the viewers. Although Yevadu team has been safeguarding the secret about the key twists in the story, filmy circles are aware of it. Few websites have also mentioned about the twists in Yevadu.

Surprisingly, team Yevadu has leaked the 'secret' all by themselves. The newly released song teaser of 'Cheliya cheliya' song gives an idea about the plot of the movie. We all know that Kajal is paired up with Allu Arjun in this film. But in this song Ram Charan visualizes Kajal in a pathos mood thus giving a biggest clue about the story of the film. If you haven't guessed it by now then be prepared to be surprised in the theaters.

But this is not an intelligent move by the makers. Never reveal such biggest secrets prior to the release, it kills the wow factor and also lessens the impact of important twists.

Screen Talk: '1' Man Show

Last year, during the Sankranti season, Mahesh and Ram Charan fought it out at the box office. 

Both of them gave hits and set the cash registers ringing. This year too, both of them have films lined up for release. But the situation is likely to be totally different, say observers. 

Film Nagar insiders feel that it is likely that it is going to be a ‘1’ man show this festive season. 

Apparently, the Censor report too says leans towards 1. 

Trade analysts feel that Mahesh will take on the box office single handedly this year.

Yevadu has been postponed for a very long time and this has adversely impacted the film. 

Also, music by Devi Sri Prasad is a minus. Though the makers are trying their best to salvage the film with promotions, it is not helping much as Mahesh’s image and the craze for ‘1’ is huge. 

The impact of Thoofan is also likely to affect the fate of Yevadu. 

However, mega fans are hopeful that Yevadu will overcome these hurdles and do good business. 

It will soon be out as who the hero is for this Sankranti!

Talk Of Town: 8 Heroes Searching For Girls

Kajal doesn't want to do Telugu films until she is paid a bomb. Tamanna desires to travel on multiple boats at the moment, but still she got that iron leg tag. Samantha is interested to focus on Sambarland rather Tollywood 2014. Ileana is already out of equation, while Anushka and Nayantara look quite senior beside our young heroes. So, what is the situation of at least these eight Telugu heroes?

Eight happening heroes including Pawan Kalyan, Ram Charan, Venkatesh, Allu Arjun, Raviteja, Manoj, Nithin and Rana need heroines for their upcoming projects. From a time, Ram Charan is unable to kick start his new project due to a hero and heroine issue. Though Srikanth is fixed as other hero in Krishnavamsi's movie with Charan, the search for main female lead still continues. There is a talk that Tamanna will be roped in, but nothing got finalized yet.

The woes of director Sampath Nandi to find a leading lady for Pawan Kalyan's Gabbar Singh 2 are quite pitiable. At the same time Venky is yet to find his on-screen partner for Maruthi's Radha. As Nayantara was intentionally kept out of the project, a newcomer is not yet identified for him. Allu Arjun's upcoming flick with Trivikram is going to start after Sankranthi, but the lead actress to share screen space with stylish star is not zeroed on.

Coming to Raviteja, his next with writer Bobby needs a second heroine. Already beautiful ladies like Praneetha and Anjali declined to take up the onus of being his second lady. Manoj needs a heroine for his next with G Nageswara Reddy, while Nithin should pick a girl for Karunkaran's cute love story. Coming to Rana, his next with director Hanu Raghavapudi is to start soon, however the leading lady is not found.

So, let us see when all these eight heroes will find their heroines and who those lucky girls are going to be!

Charan And Vamsi Picking Lucky Mascots

Till date there are doubts about this mega project, but with director Krishna Vamsi, producer Bandla Ganesh and hero Srikanth performing Puja at various holy shrines in AP with the script-file, it is confirmed that the project is going to start soon. Mega hero Ram Charan's multi-starrer flick is the one we are talking about, here goes the lucky mascot theory about this project.

With sensuous Kajal Agarwal opting out of this flick citing various issues, Charan might have looked at milky beauty as the best possible option. Because the red-hot 'rain' pair delivered 'Rachha' earlier. Though the content of that flick is quite average, the film stood in top 10 grosser of Tollywood, and that's way Charan feels Tamanna is her lucky mascot. In a way, milky beauty is an ideal heroine for Mega Powerstar for the kind of commercial values she adds in glamour department.

Coming to Krishnavamsi, insiders are quick to reveal that Venkatesh hasn't opted out the movie actually, but our director thought that hero Srikanth would be much apt than him. As KV and Srikanth delivered Khadgam and Mahatma earlier, they got nice rapport and that is also a sort of sentiment. Also Srikanth is a proven aide of Mega family, and his proximity with Chiranjeevi both in reel and real life says it all.

This mega project will roll out soon, and details about it are expected soon!!

Ramcharan confirms Yevadu release date on Facebook!!

Mega Power Star most awaited ‘Yevadu’ movie release date has been delayed numerous times and recently Producer Dil Raju announced that the movie will hit the screents on December 19th. However, the release date not yet confirmed and sources said that that’s not the final date.

Now hero Ram Charan has taken a step to announce the release date on his Facebook few hours back. Charan updated his status with release date as,

 “The wait is finally over! Bringing in Sankranti earlier for all of you with Yevadu releasing on the 12th of Jan.. Hope you celebrate the festivities with us..””

Fans were happy with the news as it was confirmed by their hero itself.Although the movie was postponed for many times, finally it's releasing in a right time.

 Directed by Vamsi Pidipally, "Yevadu" is touted to be an action-packed entertainer. The Ram Charan starrer has Shruti Haasan, Amy Jackson and Sai Kumar in pivotal roles. Allu Arjun and Kajal Aggarwal also make special appearances in the film.

Trade Analyst says ‘Vamsi Paidipally has done the fantastic job for making different style and different feel created in that movie

Yevadu May Not Fear That Blackmail

Reportedly some distributors from overseas circuits are heard blackmailing producer Dil Raju to shift 'Yevadu' release date to a later time. They are heard saying that if Yevadu hits screens along with Mahesh Babu's '1-Nenokkadine' there will be shortage of theatres in USA, and also they are talking low about Charan's market stamina.

All these USA distributors are making predictions about Mahesh and Charan's Sankranthi 2014 releases, basing on the outputs of Naayak and Seethamm Vaakitlo Sirimalle Chettu. As SVSC bagged around 8+ crores in US market, and Naayak settled for 2.5+ crores collections, distributors fear that Mahesh will take over the lead again. Though SVSC was a trendsetter at US box office in 2012, Charan got advantage in local market due to the mass-elements and entertainment factor present in his  flick. Cut to the present, what matters the most for 1-Nenokkadine and Yevadu is their entertainment factor. For now, what we could read from the posters and teasers of these two movies is that both have some serious content. So, let us wait for the race to happen to conclude the winner, but we can't straight away say that Mahesh got the edge. Because, both these star heroes have fair share of disasters too in local and overseas box office.

On the flip side, local distributors are preparing for Yevadu on January 9th/10th by giving green signal to producer Dil Raju. They say that these US distributors should fetch theatres at any chance, but shouldn't blackmail producer to postpone the flick from holiday season. It is heard that Dil Raju is on the lookout for new distributor for Yevadu in overseas market.

Yevadu Could Lose Out In the Race

The film has been postponed for the past six months. Now, Yevadu is slotted for a Sankranti release.  But since it is being released alongside Mahesh Babu’s 1-Nenokkadine, industry analysts feel it will face some business problems.  

It is a known fact that Mahesh Babu has a lot of craze in the US market. So, releasing Yevadu in competition with ‘1’ is a risky business feel its distributors.  It is heard that the distributors who bought the film’s rights are no longer keen on doing business in the US.  Apparently, a distributor told Dil Raju that it will be difficult for Yevadu to get theatres and to make business if the film is released during Sankranti. But if the film defers the Sankranti release, then it will stand to lose in the state.

 Hence, Dil Raju will have to look out for a new distributor or distribute the film himself in the US.  Last year, when Ram Charan’s Nayak released along with Seetamma Vakitlo Sirimalle Chettu, it was a huge flop in the US. But the film was a hit here.  Despite positive talk and good reviews, Nayak failed to win over the audience in the US over SVSC. That’s the reason why the buyers in the US are thinking twice before tying up with Yevadu!

Allu Arjun dominates Ram Charan

Ram Charan is undoubtedly bigger star in terms of box office range despite Allu Arjun's seniority. Chiranjeevi's son tag is the biggest asset for Ram Charan and mega fans owns him and ranks him higher than Allu Arjun irrespective of their respective talents. However, Allu Arjun is the biggest star in Kerala than any Telugu star at the moment.

We have seen Ram Charan's movies being promoted as Allu Arjun's cousin's films in Mallu land. Allu Arjun has fan clubs in Kerala state and his fans do lots of hungama for his releases over there. All of his films get dubbed in to Malayalam and does reasonably well. For the same reason Yevadu is also being dubbed in Malayalam and will have simultaneous release in Kerala along with Telugu version.

Although Allu Arjun has done a fifteen minute role in Yevadu, he is being promoted as the hero of Yevadu in Kerala. Allu Arjun is clearly dominating Charan here. And the Malayalam version of Yevadu has been titled 'Bhayya - My Brother'. Doesn't that sound like a spoiler?
