Objects to Gabbar Singh song - JustTollywood.com News

Yet another controversy surrounding Gabbar Singh was born when the Andhra Pradesh Police Officers' Association raised an objection to Pawan Kalyan dancing with scantily-dressed women in the film, with his khaki clothes on.  The Association says that it is objectionable.Since the khaki uniform is respected for its symbolic significance, disrespecting it in the name of entertainment has never gone down well with members of the department from time to time.  Gabbar Singh features many numbers, including an item song. The Association demands that objectionable content if any in the May 11 release must be omitted before the film's release.

Thaman composing for "Balupu" - JustTollywood.com News

SS Thaman is back into action.  It is known that he has been signed to score music for Ravi Teja's next.  To be directed by Gopichand Malineni, who has become confident after directing a big star like Venkatesh for Bodyguard, this one has been derogatively titled as Balupu.The film sees the coming together of the hit combo of Don Seenu, though Mani Sharma has been replaced by Thaman.  The happening music director is pretty happy on having starting his work for Balupu. Gopichand has taken extra pains to go on floors with a bound script, as his responsibility has only increased after Bodyguard.  He achieved a feat of sorts by continuing his good record for the second film.

Kandireega director complains against Bellamkonda - JustTollywood.com News

It is Bellamkonda Suresh versus Santosh Srinivas all the way.  Film Nagar is abuzz now, discussing something very open and controversial.  The Kandireega director has complained to the Directors' Council that his producer, Suresh, bet him and even threatened him with severe consequences if he did not make suitable changes to the script of Kandireega-2.  Another version goes that the director-producer duo have problems with remuneration issues.

                                       The Council is looking into the director's complaint.  It is not clear whether the Council has taken cognizance of the death threat angle as has been reported.  That the director has approached the Council, which has started the investigation process under the supervision of Sagar (director), makes it a serious issue.The film was announced officially and is all set to go on floors in June.  However, with allegations flying thick in the air, the film is now in the news for wrong reasons.  Since the rift between Suresh and Srinivas is out in the open, the same may put a spanner in the progress of the sequel.

Magadheera can't be recreated: Ram Charan - JustTollywood.com News

It's Ram Charan's gut feeling that Magadheera being a "lovely film," it is almost impossible to recreate it.  A national daily broke the news yesterday which quoted Charan as saying that Anil Kapoor had suggested that he debut in Bollywood with the remake of Magadheera.  However, Charan gently replied to Anil Kapoor, saying he doesn't think Magahdeera could be recreated. Having ruled out reprising Kala Bhairava, Cherry thinks that Hrithik Roshan or Ranbir Kapoor would be apt for the remake.  Having done the difficult role with conviction, none but Charan would know what it takes to essay the warrior-lover's role.

                                        It has been three years since the film released.  Bollywood is just getting ready for the remake.  Abhishek Kapoor of Rock On! fame is all set to direct the remake with Ranveer Singh of Band Baaja Baaraat fame. Meanwhile, Charan has completed shooting for the first schedule of Zanjeer.  He is super happy with the way it has come out.

Devi Out Mani Sharma in ! - JustTollywood.com News

It was earlier reported widely that Devi Sri Prasad would play the music for Cameraman Ganga Tho Rambabu, but of late, Puri has had second thoughts about it.  He finally zeroed in on Mani Sharma's name.This happens to be the first film in the combination of Puri and Mani four years after the release of Chirutha.  The combination is sure to raise the expectations many notches higher, since Pawan too is associated with it. On a high after Racha, though he did not meet our expectations, this may be the most important film for Mani to bounce back as a 'Mass Brahma' finally!

Rana raises a toast for RGV - JustTollywood.com News

Weeks before the release of Department, Ram is all praise for RGV, his favourite director.  "I freak out whenever I see Ramu's 'Shiva'. His other path - breaking films like 'Satya' and 'Company' have stayed on well with me as well but it is 'Shiva' that tops the list", says Rana who made his debut with a dramatic 'Dum Maaro Dum' exactly a year ago.Talking about Ramu, Rana says, "I guess no one else is making the kind of films that he does. Now being a part of something like 'Department' which belongs to the same space is just terrific. As an actor, it is always a great thing. Ramu's forte is the space of gangsters, police and politics - he can never go wrong there." For everyone's sake one hopes that turns out to be the case with 'Department' which releases all over on 18th May.

Although the makers of two biggies, 'Vishwaroopam' and 'Thupaki' had plans of unveiling their First Look posters on May 1 through newspaper ads, miscreants leaked them much to the shock of both the teams!

Why Dasari thinks Ram is the best - JustTollywood.com News

Speaking at the audio release function of Endukante Premanta, Dasari said, "The competition among the heroes is very healthy today."  He heaped praises on actor Ram, saying what others could not achieve even after 10 films, Ram proved himself with his debut film, Devadasu.  "Ram is a mature hero.  As a student Ram did not write the exams well, fearing that if he passed them with flying colours, he might be sent to abroad for higher studies."  Ram was passionate about acting since long, Dasari noted. Dasari, like many of us, is keen to watch the film.  "Even though mine is a love marriage, I do not use the word love.  Love has lost its meaning, nowadays.  We shall watch the Ram-Tamanna love in the film." Dasari recounted his association with Karunakaran, which dates back to the latter's apprenticeship under him.  "He received his first payment as an apprentice from me.  Though he got many offers from Kollywood, he bid his time to hold his ground in Tollywood.  I appreciate his commitment," Dasari said in praise of the sensible director.
