Brother and Sister sentiment!!

The leader can be from ruling party or from opposition or from a budding new party-everyone is addressing with the word 'brothers' and 'sisters'. It's a common factor to note that the political speeches start with the line 'My dear brothers and sisters'.

But here even while giving a statement or while referring to anyone, the political lips are uttering the word 'brother' or 'sister'.

When observed we can see Roja calling Naidu as 'Anna'. And Chiru has been called 'annayya' by film fraternity as well as political followers. YSR is calling Sabita Indra Reddy as 'chellamma'. Babu called people 'thammullu' during his Yuva Garjana. He never used such expression earlier and it is the influence of competition from other parties around him. And KCR is calling his people as 'brothers and sisters'.

Now Chiranjeevi has gone a step ahead calling his rival also as his brother. That would be his pseudo Gandhian style, say a few. He called KCR as 'brother'. "My brother and your leader KCR has himself said there was clarity in what I said," he told the TRS activists.

A few weeks back it is known that a video clipping has entered youtube and that is the private meeting of PRP leaders with Chiranjeevi. Mega Star is seen saying to his followers to address people as 'brother' and 'sister' wherever they go. He implies that it is the best way to develop a sort of family relation and closeness develops to cast votes for them.

We have to see how this 'daayadula poru' (as they are calling 'brothers' and 'sisters' among themselves) would result in. Who are pandavas and who are kouravas can be known only after elections.

Brahmamamgari Kalagnanam lo PRP

"Vinara Vinara O Naruda
Brahmam Maata Kalla Kaadura
Praja Rajyame Vachchenu
Koththa Chattale Techchenu
Terapai Bommalu Rajyamelenu
Vinara Vinara O Naruda
Brahmam Maata Kalla Kaadura"

This is a verse from a song on 'Srimad Virat Pothuluri Veerabrahmam Charitra', a film made by Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao in early 80s. The word 'Praja Rajyam' is used as a synonym for 'democracy' here but TV5 channel has made it a big news by linking it with Chiranjeevi's 'Praja Rajyam Party'.

And indeed the expression 'terapai bommalu rajyamelenu..' has turned true ever since NTR and MGR and now Chiranjeevi is an extension to that indeed.

Pothuluri Veerabrahmam, of 16th century, has been regarded as Nostradamus of Andhra Pradesh. So if Pothuluri Veerabrahmam garu said that 'Praja Rajyam' will come, can we expect that it is Chiranjeevi who is becoming CM soon?

Pedha hero lu pedha problems thesthunnaru!!!

The young heroes like Allu Arjun, NTR Jr, Mahesh and even the fresh blooded Ramcharan Teja have been coming out with one or hardly one movie in two years which is something that heavyweights like Shahrukh and Aamir Khan have been doing after having spent decades in the industry. While this is no comparative analysis of sorts, what needs to be seen here is the economic condition of the industry that survives majorly on these big stars and if they fail to show up on the screens few times then the idea of revenue generation and prosperity with opportunities is completely ruled out.

The senior stars like Nagarjuna, Venkatesh, Balayya who are to lead by example have been coming up with barely one film a year and the risks involved are high if they fail. Much to the horror, both 'Don' and 'Chintakayala Ravi' of the big stars did dismal performance leaving nothing much for the film folk. Balayya that way made his presence felt with 'Pandurangadu' to salvage the ruins of 'Okka Magadu'.

Analysts say that this is not a good sign where stars are shying away from doing two or three projects a year and here is a synopsis of the figures that we have.

The jewels in the crown were films like 'Ready' and 'Kotha Bangaru Lokam' which were made at medium budgets but then 'Ready' made a collection of a whopping 15 crores while 'KBL' also achieved somewhat the same figure. Then came 'Kantri' made at a budget of 17 crores and collecting 20 crores followed by 'Ashta Chemma' with a budget of around 1.5 crores and making a profit of nearly 3-4 crores more like a metro hit.

On the dark side, there was 'Keka' that was made at a more than required budget but then it suffered huge losses of up to 50%-60%. So, in all these instances it was only the NTR movie that had its nose above the water when it came to big banners.

It is about time the big stars realize that the industry's survival lies on their hands and if they take the initiative and come up with more than one release a year, it will not only keep the ball rolling but also create a fulfillment for the audience and fans who are waiting for years together just to see one single movie that turns out to be a disaster in the end not to mention the disappointment it causes for the viewers.

First show collection says JC DIWAKAR.

Its like first show collections for chiru films and in the same manner JC compares with the crowd came for seeing chiru. The tremendous response being received from crowds by megastar Chiranjeevi in Anantapur has sent jitters in the camp of Panchayat Raj Minister J C Diwakar Reddy.

However, JC is trying to brush it aside as lightly to cover up his jittery. While admitting huge turnout to Chiranjeevi's road shows, he said it was nothing but the crowd turning up for Chiru's film at the first show. "It is nothing but natural that people are curious to watch Chiranjeevi, as they go to cinema theatres on the first day to see his movies. After a few days, the curiousity disappears, just as rush comes down for a movie," he said.

Well, movies sometimes become big hits. And who knows Chiru party also may become a big hit one day!

MAHESH EDHI SANGHATHI!!!

At last Mahesh babu got place in politics cartoons. Mahesh told in the Nadhi function that YSR is my lucky CM because i got two nandhi awards in his era only.So with this kind of saying now media got good chance to speculate the cartoons across the AP.

Mahesh has now become the special interest for the Eenadu group and that was evident when a cartoon resembling him appeared on the front page of its Newspaper. It shows the face of YSR in the place of the bull's face on the Nandi statue and a young couple is admiring the statue.

If Mahesh is actually looking at doing anything on political grounds then this is the first sign for him as to what will be in store when he actually picks up the momentum. While the formal confirmation is still not given, the arrival of Mahesh even in cartoons goes to show the impact his presence has been creating.

Chiru Rayalaseema tour Kashtalu!!!


The True facts in Rayalaseema show are :

1)No one supporting his fans for facilities like Auto,Cabs,Lodges.
2)Local congress leaders are dominating in the Rayalaseema.
3)In Tadipatri(Ananthapur dist) he even not getting the guest houses and the local Prajarajam leader pila Narasimhaiah is making arragements outskirts of tadipatri.
4)Lot of involvement of local leaders like JC.Prabhaker Reddy.

The road shows of megastar and Praja Rajyam party president Chiranjeevi have turned virtually nightmares for the people.

During his road show at Dharmavaram in Anantapur district on Monday, there was a big stampede of crowds, resulting in the death of two youth. The crowds were in such large numbers that it was virtually impossible for the police to control them. The mob tried to run after Chiru's convoy, which resulted in a stampede.

What is more, the local authorities are simply obeying the orders of the Congress leaders and creating troubles for Chiru's tour. In Anantapur, the authorities have disconnected power supply in the areas where Chiru is touring. The authorities say power cuts are being imposed as a precautionary measure in a big to avoid shocks to people who are mounting electricity poles to see Chiranjeevi, but the PRP leaders say it is a deliberate attempt to obstruct Chiru shows during the nights. In any case, it is a trouble for the people!

SAKHI Channel coming soon!!!


Folks you all already know that sakshi paper was owned by YS Jagan and now the same owner launching the "Saakshi TV" before the elections, according to sources.

There is some delay in obtaining all the permissions from the Centre; and secondly, the studio is still under construction. Sources said the studio, with all its equipment, would be ready only by February and by that time, it will already be election time. And Jagan would be busy with his electioneering and campaigning.

"There is no point in launching the channel in a hurry without proper training and trial runs. We need to race against time to complete the studio ahead of it. Otherwise, it will be launched only after polls," a source said.
