Bodyguard flies to Canada - JustTollywood.com News

Currently being shot at a railway station in Hyderabad, Venkatesh starrer Bodyguard will fly to Canada for a song shoot in the first week of October. Adapted from a Malayalam film of the same name, Bodyguard is coming close on the heels of the release of a Hindi adaptation. We do not know whether it will do any good or bad for the movie, but the Salman Khan Kareena Kapoor starrer is a roaring success in South India (more than the North).

The makers are not afraid of any comparisons though. It is a rarity that two versions release in different languages in quick succession. The film is expected to be different to a good extent from the Malayalam and Hindi versions. It is hoped that Bodyguard will make its mark at the BO.

Oosaravelli to release on a grand scale - JustTollywood.com News

NTR's fans are in for a big bonanza. It is because, it is going to be their favourite actor all the way. The producer of Oosaravelli, much to their delight, is planning to install over 200 cut-outs across the State in the run up to the release of the movie.BVSN Prasad, who has made the NTR-starrer on a huge budget, wants to splash the domineering persona of the Young Tiger by installing his cut-outs at theaters and important centers in cities and towns.

This is a first-of-its-kind move by a producer. We have heard of fans going out of their way to honour their demi-God film stars with gigantic cut-outs, even if it meant having to pay through their nose. However, it is not usual to see a producer doing it himself. Going by the past trends in respect of such publicity moves, our hunch is that it is definitely going to become a trend in the industry. It is because Kodali Nani spent nearly half a crore on the audio release ceremony of Samba. Soon, the trend caught the industry like cold.

Postpone, thy name is Pawan Kalyan - JustTollywood.com News

What is a Pawan Kalyan movie if it doesn't see postponement of everything? We learn that the film's trailer is not going to be released for Dussehra. So, what should we wait for? Don't get used-up. You should wait for its title. Hey, let you be also informed that the audio release date is not November 2 as it was told. The 13th of that month is the new date. Unlike ever-changing titles, this is just the second date. (Pray, you countless fans of Power Star, that the date is final).

Speaking matter-of-factly, it must be said that the only time the movie has been written about is when new titles were discussed. Even die-hard fans of Pawan sir do not remember what its first title was. If our memory is serving us right, it was Dark. Nah, wait, it was Shadow. Well, it did not help SJ Surya or anyone when the title of Pawan's previous film was constant for the two years it was endlessly in the making. With only change (of titles and dates) constant about his current film, the film may be titled 'Change.' Any takers?

Gopi Mohan to direct Venky ? - JustTollywood.com News

It is Gopi Mohan's turn to wield the megaphone. The Srinu Vytla associate has written the script for many successful films like Dhee, Ready, King and the recently released Dookudu. He is a name to reckon with among popular writers in Tollywood today.It is not surprising that he wants to become a director himself. Having worked with Vytla for several years, he is said to be evincing a keen interest in the craft for the creative satisfaction it gives and the challenges it involves.

So, who is he going to direct as a debutante? No prizes for guessing that it is Venkatesh, a long-time friend of his friend Vytla. Luckily for Gopi Mohan, he became close to Venky during the making of Namo Venkatesa (for which he lent the script). It may be noted that in the past Veeru Potla, who was a writer, turned into a director with Bindaas and has made two films till date (his second film was Ragada).
