Bhaskar's 3rd Heroine for Ongole Gitta | Director Bhaskar Searching For 3rd Heroine

Bhaskar is directing a film titled Ongole Gitta with Ram as the hero.  Produced by BVSN Prasad, the film has had teething problems owing to some unavoidable reasons.

Just as the director thought of two heroes before selecting Ram (because Karthi and Allu Arjun both could not act in the film owing to dates issues), he had to go for two heroines, one a Bengaluru model and two, an Indian woman settled in South Africa, before zeroing in on Kriti Kharbanda of Teen Maar and Mr. Nookayya fame.

It was due to Shuba Phutela's health issues that she had to be dropped after shooting some scenes with her.

Currently being shot at Tanaku, the film has music by GV Prakash Kumar.  It is scheduled for a December release.

Damarukam Release Postponed To Oct 19 | Damarukam Set To Release On Ot 19th

Disappointing Nag's fans is yet another postponement of Damarukam's release date.  The film will hit the screens on Oct 19, a day after the release of CGTR on Oct 18.

It sees Nagarjuna and Anushka in two equally important roles, where as Prakash Raj seems to be doing one of the challenging roles of his career.  This socio-fantasy flick is directed by Srinivas Reddy.

As RR Movie Makers' Dr. Venkat proudly says, this is the costliest film in Nag's career.  Also, the never-before-seen story and other props (read the high quality computer graphics) are the film's big selling points.  Though it was supposed to hit the screens in May, the post-production works had to be stretched to ensure that nothing went wrong.

Music is by Devi Sri Prasad.

If you want publicity for your film in Tamil circuit and to an extent in Telugu tinsel town, then you need to knock the doors of Superstar Rajinikanth. If you want example, ask Naresh and Sridevi.

Like all common moviegoers, Superstar Rajinikanth too watches films and enjoys them a lot. But there are some makers who cash on this happening, whenever the star hero watches a particular movie. This happened for 'Sudigadu' earlier, as the makers promoted it as a big win for the film. Now, Sridevi's upcoming movie 'English Vinglish' is doing the same thing. Generally Rajini never gives any comments after watching any film, but our makers publicizing that Rajini is quite excited upon watching this flick.

Big Doubts On Damarukam's Extraordinary Graphics | Nagarjuna's Damarukam Movie Trailer Raises Expectations

Initial teasers and songs have attracted film buffs to certain extent, though the film is a late venture. But after watching the latest theatrical trailers, big doubts raised to the peaks again.

'Damarukam' is finally seeing light as the Computer Graphics work of the movie got completed. But a look at the theatrical trailers gives you a feel of watching plastic characters fighting with hero Nagarjuna. The fierce dog, a raging bull and a terrorizing alien look like CG work and might fail to create impact when watched for a long time on silver screen.

Critics are saying that Graphics should be realistic like in Rajamouli's movies, which otherwise make people bore these days as they are habituated to watching movies like Avatar and Spiderman. There are those who say it is content that really connects with audience, and if that happens to one will give a damn for that CG work. This is a serious issue to watch out in the case of Nag's 'Damarukam' and wait for the movie's release.

Talk-Of-Town: Thaman Laughs at Lawrence for Rebel | Thaman Out of Rebel Movie | Lawrence Rebel Music Flops

This is not just an ordinary laugh but the way how someone grins when they know that they are the ultimate winner. Talk in Film Nagar is about a debut Music Director who has given punch to him sometime back and became the element of laugh for Thaman now.

Choreographer Lawrence always tries to prove that he is a multi talented individual with extreme creative talent. In that process, he has ousted super talented Thaman from 'Rebel' and did the music on his own. You might have got it by now, how much Rebel is torturing audiences in theatres with its horrible music. None of the Telugu industry critics wanted to talk about Lawrence's music while talking about 'Rebel' output. And, who could be the happier one other than Thaman at the moment!

Lawrence should open his eyes and acknowledge the fact that a gifted music director is always essential for a movie. Moreover he should stop doing experiments with Telugu producers and heroes with his day-dreams.

There is a common link between the three directors Krish, Sekhar Kammula and Neelakanta. For some reason, the trio seems to spend a lot of time in shaping up their films. Krish's 'Krishnam Vande Jagadgurum' started long back and is still on the floors with its shooting and other activities.

Kammula's 'Life Is Beautiful' released just recently after taking almost one and half years. Neelakanta's new movie 'Chammak Challo' is on the anvil since long but is yet to get wrapped up. Even another director Chandra Siddhartha also belongs to this category. His film 'Housefull' is releasing after two years.

Those who know these directors well say "They give a lot of value to art and they don't compromise and that eats time. Maybe that's why they have registered themselves as quality cinema makers and award winning directors. They cannot be put into the tag of mainstream moviemakers. They are different."
