Allari MLA



Allari Naresh has signed a movie with Bindaas' production house AK Entertainment Banner.  The film is titled MLA, the acronym for Manchi Lakshanalunna Abbayi.  Debutante director Veerabhadram Chowdary will wield the megaphone.
As Bendu Apparao and Malli in Shambo Shiva Shambo, Naresh proved that he can dabble in sentimental, comedy and emotional roles with ease.  Now, you can expect a good performance as an absolutely good guy character in MLA.
Srihari is playing the most important supporting actor of the film.  It may be noted that this is just another film in his kitty.
He is a happier lot these days, as he has already got K Vishwanath's Sumadhuram and another project with director Vamshi in hand.  Though these are not big releases, given that there is not much hype surrounding them as yet and also as the once-front line directors have not been delivering hits in recent times, they are special to him as the roles he is playing in these films are distinct.

Bumper Offer for Raghu



Ever since his Ravanamma number rode the chartbusters in 2009, Raghu Kunche has been a busy musician.  He has two films with Allari Naresh alone lined up.  If in the last month he was signed for 'Betting Bangarraju', in the New Year, yet another Naresh film has come his way.
Titled MLA, the producers have roped in Raghu Kunche as music director.  Besides the two noteworthy ones, there are a slew of other films, small and medium-budgeted, in his kitty.  Which means that Kunche is slowly turning out to be the next big one after Mickey J Meyer et al.
There was also news that he was chosen as the music director of 'Golimaar'.  'Bumper Offer' brought him more offers than any one had imagined.  As a singer, Kunche did prove his mettle.  He then moved on to anchoring, where he made a successful, albeit brief, stint, all owing to his spontaneity.
As a musician, he is sure destined to make strides.  
Let's Wish him all the Best for the year 2010 

Prabhu into Telugu Films



After Satyaraj, his best pal in Tamil filmdom, Ilayathilagam Prabhu is also setting foot in Tollywood. Karunakaran, the maker of films like Toli Prema, Ullasanga Uthsahanga and Balu ABCDEFG, is roping in Prabhu for an important role in his forthcoming film Darling. Prabhas and Kajal Agharwal play the romantic leads in this film.
We know the actor for his roles in movies like Chandramukhi.  The actor may not be familiar to the audience as much as his contemporaries, but he has already been signed by 'Bommarillu' Bhaskar for his film with Ram Charan.
The Telugu audience have always liked intense character actors imported from other industries.  In fact, whenever top Tamil heroes like Rajinikanth and Sarath Kumar have done significant supporting roles in our movies, they met up with immense fame and success. Let's see if Prabhu enlivens the trend.

Leader ??????????????????????????



When was the last time you heard about Leader's date of release?  The last time we heard about it was when it was postponed at the time of the Christmas eve, when the producers said they were planning to release it on the Sankranthi day.
There has been no official confirmation about the release date ever.  The movie, reportedly made at a big cost, is one of the most-awaited movies, in which Rana Daggubati is debuting as an actor.  It is learnt that director Shekar Kammula is making some changes to the script and also re-filming some scenes.
Reasons for the undue delay are exactly not known, but the film may release only in February.  The audio, released in December, has music by Mickey J Meyer.  Usually,  there is not more than a month's gap between the audio and theatrical release.
The AVM movie is a political drama, which Mr. Kammula has made with passion.  Let's hope it comes before us very soon and turns out to be a super hit.

Charan said yes to Dharani


Ram Charan Tej is currently acting in Orange that is being directed by Bommarillu Bhaskar. His next film will be directed by popular mass Tamil director Dharani. this film will be produced by Mega Supergood films banner.

Magadheera Completed 175 Days

The movie’s 175-days run is affected in Telangana area due to ban on Magadheera. However, Magadheera has successfully completed 175 days run in  all other places

Lakshmi Prasanna is ready for acting



Lakshmi Prasanna, daughter of Mohan Babu is making her debut in Telugu. Lakshmi will be playing a negative role in Siddharth’s upcoming flick which is being directed by K Raghavendra Rao’s son K S Prakash. The film is being produced by Raghavendra Rao. Sruthi Hassan is playing the female lead in the film opposite Siddharth. Well, this seems that the lady is moving in the foot steps of her dad, Mohan babu who started off his career with negative roles

Dubai Seenu Now turned into DON Sreenu


Ravi Teja’s Don Seenu under the production house R.R Movie Makers will be hitting the floors from 25th, January. R R movie makers had earlier given a super hit film Kick with Ravi Teja.

Gopichand Malineni is making his debut as a director with this film. Venkat is producing the film.
Though Ravi teja has signed up other two films, this would be first priority one which will hit the floors.Trisha will be playing the female lead in the movie. Although there was news that Anushka is playing the lead role, finally Trisha was roped in. The total schedule will be wrapped up by the month of June.

Kedi is coming on feb 12



The Jr. NTR film Adhurs was blocked from being released in Nizam and the film was not allowed to be screened for the first day at many places in Telangana. Now the ‘T’ agitators have turned their attention on the soon to be released film of hero Nagarjuna – ‘Kedi’. They are threatening to block the screening of the film in Telangana.
Kedi is slated to hit the screens on February 12. It remains to be seen how Nagarjuna will resolve this problem now.
