SS Rajamouli’s prestigious project Bahubali is getting ready in a grand fashion. Already Prabhas, Rana Daggubati and Anushka Shetty are part of the project and are busy practising sword fights. Meanwhile, there is news that Rajamouli is approaching Shruti Haasan for doing a special role of a princess.
Goan beauty Ileana, who had virtually said no to Tollywood after the rift between her and the Telugu film industry over non-appearance for the promotion of Julayi, is likely to be back if her conditions are met. After getting brickbats here, instantly she found shelter in Bollywood and also enjoyed success with Barfi. After this episode, Ileana had almost said no to Tollywood. But it is now believed that she has been approached to do a film in Telugu and the actress has demanded 2 crores as her payment!
After the immense success of Seethamma Vakitlo Sirimalle Chettu, many producers and directors are contemplating on doing multi-star films. It seems Vamsi Paidipally is also planning something similar for Yevadu.
The film which has Ram Charan playing the lead role will also be a multi-star movie, if we were believe the words of industry people.
It was Allu Arjun who started the trend of six pack in Tollywood, later Prabhas and Sunil followed him. It’s not just the younger generation actors who have become fitness freaks, even the older actors like Nagarjuna and Venkatesh too are trying to look fit. In fact Nagarjuna even showcased his six pack abs in his recent flick Damarukam.
According to the latest buzz doing the rounds in the tinsel town, the much talked about project of Daggubati Rana and SelvaRaghavan is stalled. It is not yet known whether the project is permanently shelved or not.
Mirchi Siva is riding high these days and has quite a few projects on hand. Meanwhile, there are rumours swirling around that he is set to marry his long-time fiancée Priya.
Even as the tinsel world is abuzz with such talk, Shiva is denying such a development.
It must be said that the actor taking a break from the shoot of Thillu Mullu has fuelled such speculation.
Apart from these two projects, Shiva is part of Sonna Puriyadhu and Siva Pujayil Karadi.
According to a recent report in Deccan Chronicle, Producer Hansraj Saxena, ex-CEO of SunTV and Sun Pictures, has reportedly offered a 240-crore deal to Rajinikanth for a Tamil film. He is an independent producer now, producing films like Charulatha and Shivani.
Kajal was initially signed to play the female lead in Mahesh Babu’s upcoming film with Sukumar. Now, the buzz is that Mahesh is not keen on waiting for his leading lady’s dates after Samantha’s delay in Seetamma Vakitlo Sirimalle Chettu.
The Mahesh-Sukumar film was supposed to start its first schedule in Goa from October 10. But as Kajal was unavailable at that time, Mahesh decided not to wait for the actress and instead opted for another heroine.
Barfi is one of the most used words, from when the movie of the same name released a couple of weeks ago. It has won the honor of being the Indian representation at next year's Oscars.
Meanwhile, the success of the movie starring Ranbir Kapoor, Priyanka Kapoor and Illeana seems to have sent film-makers scurrying into thinking of a possible re-make.
