Babu bhava maridhini kadhu ....NTR muddhu biddanu!!


The road shows of Yuvaratna Balakrishna, the star campaigner of Telugu Desam, has entered the fourth day and he is gradually opening up his mind on his future plans, much to the chagrin of TD president N Chandrababu Naidu.

Apparentlhy, Balaiah has realised that the people do not believe Chandrababu Naidu, nor do they have any soft corner towards him. So, he decided to take it upon himself to revive the glory of TD. In his road show in Kurnool district, Balaiah made it clear that he had to come into the people "not as Chandrababu Naidu's brother-in-law, but as son of late N T Rama Rao, to revive the past glory of Telugu Desam."

In Anantapur, too, Balakrishna told people that he would assume the responsibilities of implementing the promises made by Chandrababu Naidu in letter and spirit. "I will not allow anybody violating the promises made to the people," he said.

This is definitely an embarrassing situation for Naidu. He is now worried as to what extent Balaiah would go during his road shows. Don't be surprised, Naidu might even play spoilsport with Balaiah's roadshows midway!

War Started before only!!!

Whenever a title is given to a big star, it holds apt meaning to his experience and prowess on the silver screen. However, the title 'Superstar' is a common term and there was a time when this was being used to various top heroes in the film circuit. However, it is said that the original superstar for the Telugu circuit has always been the legendary NTR.

But then, it is known news that the tag of Superstar in Telugu only goes for Krishna. The story goes that many years ago, the famous Jyothichitra magazine known for its films and reporting came up with a contest. They gave out coupons in their magazine and asked the readers to fill in the coupons giving out their favorite hero and post it.

Incidentally, the first week results showed that it was NTR indeed but then from second to sixth weeks it was only Krishna and finally he emerged the winner. It is said that Krishna fans took initiative in this matter and they went to the extent of locating where the magazine is being printed, bought the entire lot, filled the coupons and posted them back. That happened for 5 consecutive weeks and Krishna was declared Super Star. So much was the following for Krishna during his time.

It is also said that out of all the stars, it is Krishna who has the largest number of fans who have been quite loyal to him from the past few decades. So much so that recently when the famous Zoom TV channel conducted a survey in the south to see which hero has got the maximum fan following, the surprise winner turned out to be Krishna beating the likes of Rajinikanth and Chiranjeevi (in the matter of number of loyal fans for years together in all walks of life).

Even today, there are many who introduce themselves as fans of Krishna sounding more like a branded company and the truth remains that they don't make much noise unwantedly and have a very deep devotion towards their favorite hero. Today, with Krishna being awarded the coveted Padma Bhushan it goes without saying that this man still rules the roost when it comes to fan following.

Krishna has got some really interesting credits in his life as an actor with a theatre in Guntur screening only his movies for one full year, about seven theatres in a town screening only Krishna movies and that too different ones, the famous Vahini studios having its floors occupied with four five different movies running simultaneously and all of them had Krishna as the hero. Not stopping at that, he is the first man to get color scope to Telugu with his film 'Alluri Seetharama Raju' and later became the first one to get a 70mm movie into Telugu with yet another blockbuster hit 'Simhasanam'.

We salute this man who runs like a silent river but has the depths of an ocean and wish him more success and fame in the time to come.

Betrayal behind lies NTR Atma Garjana

CD titled NTR Atma Garjana containing NTR’s statements on the coup that led to his dethronement in 1995 and the betrayal and treachery of the Telugu Desam president, Mr Chandrababu Naidu, was distributed in the Assembly lobbies on Wednesday.

The CD contained a video presentation of the former chief minister’s last interview and his appearance in a TV show. In the CD, NTR exposed Mr Naidu to the hilt by narrating the coup that led to his dethronement in 1995.

Criticising Mr Naidu of "betrayal and well planned treachery," NTR asked the people to realise the truth. He also pointed out his popular welfare schemes which were later either scrapped or modified during Mr Chandrababu Naidu’s regime.

Jr.NTR my join congress???

Now congress men are trying to pull 'Young Tiger' NTR into congress and people may feel it as false news but it may be true or false...And the story goes like this :

There is a strong buzz making sounds that NTR Jr who was the only missing link in the battle cry of the Telugu Desam is now being wooed by the Congress force. There is a very strategic ploy being employed by the experienced Congressmen and news is that those folks to whom NTR can never say no and takes their words with full respect are being approached by YS and his men to ensure that talks get a breakthrough.

Apparently, there have been few spurts of differences between NTR on one side and Balakrishna, Kalyanram on the other and the truth remains that if there is any star who has a strong appeal amongst the public after Balayya, then it is NTR Jr himself. However, ever since the Nandamuri clan announced its decision to support Telugu Desam party, NTR has been maintaining a 'Touch-me-Not' stand and when the real event of 'Yuvagarjana' happened he dropped out at the last moment citing shooting commitments.

Sources say that Congress has been promising the moon for NTR if he joins them and also provide full support to any other government related deals he might have. They are fully aware that if there can be any star power in the Congress that is match to Chiru or Balayya, it has got to be NTR since Mahesh Babu has been off the hook and Nagarjuna will not be so intensely involved in the canvassing.

Meanwhile, this news has already reached the honchos of the Naidu camp and there is news that Balayya has already entered the field to begin a fresh round of talks with NTR and give him some piece of his mind. Reports say that Balayya has been asking NTR to maintain restraint and not make any hasty moves by joining the Congress camp. But if it does happen and NTR jumps across the line, then it is without doubt that the whole dynamics of the political situation will take a completely different direction.

Jamaata Dasamagrahaha

Like it or not, but then the truth remains that as long as Chandrababu Naidu is around in the Telugu Desam Party he will be constantly plundered on the infamous 'Viceroy Hotel' incident which led to the downfall of the legendary NTR and the eventual succession of Naidu as the Chief Minister.

It was during that time NTR released a cassette titled 'Jamaata Dasamagrahaha' which meant that a son-in-law happens to be the tenth planet that rules one's life apart from the nine planets. So, he ended up letting out his frustration and anguish in that cassette but as soon as Naidu got into power, he managed to keep that in the wraps.

Now, it is heard that the Congress party and including NTR's daughter Purandeshwari are making few inclusions and modifications to come out with a VCD of the same portraying Naidu as the villain and since the elections are approaching, they thought that there is no better time than this one. Let us wait and see how this one works. Congress men are planning to distribute those VCDs among people.
