Telugu Film Industry is blind now

Telugu Film Industry is blind now

When any person talks about Telugu Film Industry, only two actors strike in our mind firstly. They are Nandamuri Taraka Rama Rao and Akkineni Nageswara Rao. The Tollywood suffered a huge loss with NTR's demise in the year 1996 and now the Telugu Kalamathalli has become blind with ANR's death.

With over 74 years of experience in the Industry, ANR held his nerve, loved his characters and there was no role he donned in films. Being an atheist, ANR was most popular for his devotee roles in various films. Devadasu and Premnagar are the epic Tollywood movies with love tragedy angle. Premabhishekam movie ran for 533 days in Hyderabad city and still holds the record of a continuous run by any movie in Telugu.

Keeping aside his filmy career, ANR is always a controversy free man and never in his life or filmy career he got involved in an issue. His discipline and dedication are the only two reason for his huge fan following. ANR had profound understanding of the business requirements of film industry and so he ventured into production. ANR established Annapoorna Studios banner and its is one of the oldest production houses of TFI. ANR shares special bond with NTR. He was invited into politics by NTR but he rejected the offer and was confined to films.

Currently ANR was doing a film with his son Nagarjuna and grandson Naga Chaitanya titled Manam. He wrapped his part of shooting and was taking care rest after undergoing a major surgery. On October 19, 2013 ANR held a press meet and conveyed the message about his cancer. He wished to live for 100 years with the blessings of fans but unfortunately it did not happen.

Having such an amazing personality in our Telugu Cinema is something we all should be proud of. He is a priceless necklace for the goddess of Fine Arts.

Mahesh Babu Moves Northward

Mahesh Babu Moves Northward?

Mahesh Babu enjoys top position in the Telugu cinema has been speculated for long of going into Hindi cinema industry.  But it never happened.  His best movie so far is “Pokiri” made by Puri Jagannadh.  Its remake in Hindi “Wanted” was led by Salman Khan.

At the time of releasing “The Businessman” Puri Jagannadh asked Mahesh Babu whether he would act in the Hindi version of it if it is remade in Hindi.  The question of Puri Jagannadh was not in private.  He asked the question at the time of audio function of the movie, in public and handing over the mike to Mahesh Babu.  But he got ‘no’ for an answer from the superstar. 

Now to the joy of the fans of Mahesh Babu, although he is not going to act in a Hindi film, he is going to act in a Telugu movie directed by Raj & DK the directors who jointly direct the films.  They have previously made “Shor In the City” and “Go Goa Gone” movies. 

The point for the fans to feel happy for it is that the directors after directing a Telugu movie with Mahesh Babu will certainly fall in love with the superstar’s charisma to take him to the Hindi belt.
