Dil Raju to produce Prabhas's next - JustTollywood.com News



Dil Raju
and Prabhas have a thing in common. Their previous films were flops. If Dil Raju's Josh with Naga Chaitanya was declared a flop in non-A centers, Prabhas' Ek Niranjan's fate is too well known. The producer and the actor are teaming up for a film. And, it will be directed Dasarath who had a flop career as director in Sambaram, Sri and Swagatham many years ago too. So this one may not be a crazy combination, but it might turn out to be the biggest advantage for them, as expectations on them will be low.
Film industry sources say that two girls named Tapsi and Sarah Jain are debuting with this movie in which Prabhas will be shown in a never-seen-before characterization. Details about the film are still under wraps and an official announcement is expected only after some days.However, gossip mills hush hush that the film to be made under SriVenkateswara Creations will be released in the summer of 2010. Naturally, Dil Raju, Prabhas Raju and Dasarath will want to bounce back in a big way with this film.
Only a few months back Dil Raju said in a TV interview that Dasarath has immense talent in him and it is still a wonder that he hasn't met up with much success. He clued in the interview that Prabhas will most probably act in the story. Well, we all know the wonderful judgment capabilities of this producer, who in the past turned hits after hits, only to be trumped for now by Josh.

Jagapathi to do 'Gayam-2' - JustTollywood.com News



We knew that the currency of sequels is great these days. But, when a serious, true sequel is being made, we have to sit and take notice. 'Gayam' was a film that was a massive hit and established Jagapathi Babu almost 15 years ago in a big way (though the film itself was not as big a hit as Kshana Kshanam or Shiva). In the year 2010, the same Durga who intimidated us on the screen in that Ram Gopal Varma's edge-of-the-seat film on gang wars and brutal killings, is coming back.
The film will be directed by Praveen Sri, a disciple of RGV. In the film, Jagapathi will be named Durga again and it will essentially be a chronicle of how Durga lives 15 years since. Jagapathi acted wtih Revathi and Urmila Matondkar in the original. The star cast of the second part is not yet decided.
What could be reason for making a true sequel to Gayam? Mr. Babu's 'Siddham' with JD Chakravarthy this year has certainly proved that the 40 plus actor is still in full form when it comes to acting in serious and powerful characters. Did 'Siddham' prod the debutante to work on a story that is primarily an extension of Gayam?
It will be a unique kind of sequel because in the past no other film has seen a sequel made after 15 years. One wishes Praveen and Jagapathi all the best!
