Director digging his own grave! !!

Although it's too harsh to make such statement, one gets the same feeling looking at the desperate attempts of director Gunasekhar to make a strong comeback. This fading director has chosen a woman oriented script now and being the producer, he has prepared himself to spend nothing short of Rs 40 crore on it! Why does he want to take such a huge risk when he has a series of flops under his belt?

A film like Damarukam which was made with a budget of over Rs 40 crore with stars Nagarjuna & Anushka failed to recover all of it's investment prior to the release and now due to the average talk, everyone associated with the film including the producer, distributors and buyers will be incurring heavy losses. Then how could Rudrama Devi which has Anushka alone end up making table profits? Seems like Gunasekhar has learnt nothing from the huge failures he tasted due to lavish sets starting from Arjun to Varudu.

When a magnum opus film like Arundathi which has perfect blend of gripping screenplay and breathtaking visuals can be made with a budget of Rs 13 crore, why can't Gunasekhar focus on making Rudrama Devi at least on a moderate budget around Rs 25 crore? Point to be noted!

As the actor has already declared that he would be contesting the elections from one of the Assembly constituencies, the focus has been now shifted to the landmark film.

This project which was expected to be made with a high-budget will go to the floors in the first half of 2013.

Speculations about the 100th film might have prompted the producer to leak the information and now it's up to the fans to guess who will be directing Balakrishna's landmark film. Balayya seems to be taking his time to make it a memorable one. For now let's believe the wait is worth it!

Akshay And Prabhas Should Stop This !!

One is hunk hero of Tollywood and other one is aged superstar of B-town. Both are said to be doing some common things now, which are looking a bit 'extra' though they may call them as masala elements for fans.

When Prabhas kicks the bonnet of a car with his leg, the front two wheels of the car just bolt out and fly away from their position. And, if Akshay Kumar thumps the jeep of goons with his leg, all those goons just scatter away from the vehicle. Prabhas is doing that stunt for 'Mirchi', while Akshay is performing it for his forthcoming 'Khiladi 786'. Both these stunts look unreal and even fans of our star-heroes are not accepting them. Hitting 100 goons in a style is okay, but these impossible things are somewhat unacceptable these days. So, what our heroes will say about this is something we need to wait for.

On the other hand, Prabhas' Mirchi is said to be moving away from Sankranthi race, as two big flicks including Charan's Naayak and Mahesh-Venky's Seethamma Vaakitlo are hitting the marquee.
