Nani dual role in Janda Pai Kapiraju

Doing a dual role always occupies top place in list of any actor. Right from NTR’s ‘Ramudu Bheemudu’ in 1964 to upcoming Ram Charan-starrer ‘Naayak’ which is slated for release on Jan 10, the dual role movies have been getting wide attention from audiences.
Now, the latest to join this list is young hero Nani. Nani, who is on a roll, with a spree of hit films Rajamouli’s ‘Eega’, Gautham Menon’s ‘Yeto Vellipoyindi Mansu’, is all set to portray dual role in his upcoming film ‘Janda Pai Kapiraju’.  Acclaimed director Samuthrakhani, who directed films like ‘Sambho Siva Sambho’, ‘Sangharshana’, is wielding the megaphone.
Nani himself confirmed, “I’m fortunate to bag this opportunity to work in ‘Janda Pai Kapiraju’. This is going to be a landmark film in my career. Usually, actors who have done 50-60 films would get such roles. I’m very lucky to get this role at early of my career. I play dual role in this film.” Amala Paul plays Nani’s romantic interest. She plays deglamourized role in the film like all Samuthrakhani’s films. But if you are eagerly looking forward to watch Nani’s dual role you’ve to wait till September. Since, it is bilingual (Tamil-Telugu), the makers are shooting separate scenes in different locations for each language. Currently, the first schedule of shooting is progressing at Manikonda, Hyderbad.
Meanwhile, Nani’s other film ‘Paisa’ directed by Krishna Vamsi is nearing completion. SRC: Gulte.com

Comedy Plays key in Naayak

Ram Charan’s Pongal attraction looks like a complete action entertainer by its promos and solo stills of Charan holding a Trishul. However, we got information from reliable sources that Naayak has wonderful comedy part besides romance and other mass masala elements.
Vinayak has given major importance for comedy in his films Adurs and Krishna. He made sure that Naayak doesn’t fall short in terms of comedy. First half of the film is hilarious with great comedy scenes. It is on par with Adurs say sources. Ram Charan hasn’t done comedy in his previous films. Chiranjeevi and Pawan Kalyan are known for their great comic timing.
Ram Charan didn’t get a chance to show his comedic side till now. Vinayak, who is a big fan of Chiranjeevi, is trying to present Charan like Chiranjeevi and hence there is ample comedy in the film. Charan has done dual roles in this film. Naayak character will be powerful and action packed whereas other character will be extremely hilarious. Stay tuned for more updates on Nayak.

Salman Khan is not bhai to Sonakshi Sinha

Superstar Salman Khan is often referred to as bhai by his fans and loved ones. He’s like a big brother to many of his younger co-stars. But, for actress Sonakshi Sinha, Salman Khan can never become her ‘bhai’. Sonakshi, who has acted with Salman in the Dabangg series, confessed that Khan is her mentor and guide and has known him ever since she was a child.
She also said that she doesn’t like attatching the ‘bhai’ tag while adressing Salman. Sonakshi told TOI that all of Salman’s co-stars call him by him name, so why would she call him bhai. “Why is it an issue when I don`t attach `bhai` to Salman?,” Sonakshi confessed. In fact, a few days back, Salman Khan himself had confessed that he doesn’t like being referred to as ‘bhai’.
It looks like his Dabangg girl has taken his statement quite seriously and is strictly following it.

Skyfall gets boost with Producers Guild nod

Steven Spielberg’s presidential drama ‘Lincoln,’ musical ‘Les Miserables’ and Kathryn Bigelow’s Osama bin Laden thriller ‘Zero Dark Thirty’ were among 10 films earning Producers Guild Award nominations on Wednesday, as the Hollywood awards season gathered momentum.
Ben Affleck and George Clooney, two of the producers behind Affleck’s Iran hostage drama ‘Argo,’ and the team that brought Quentin Tarantino’s darkly humorous slavery Western ‘Django Unchained’ to the screen also won nods for the awards handed out by the Producers Guild of America.
The critically acclaimed James Bond blockbuster ‘Skyfall,’ which last weekend surpassed $1 billion at the worldwide box office, got a big boost to its Oscar hopes when producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael Wilson were included.
They joined an eclectic list that featured Ang Lee’s shipwreck tale ‘Life of Pi,’ and quirky comedy ‘Silver Linings Playbook.’
Wes Anderson’s ‘Moonrise Kingdom,’ and mythical indie film ‘Beasts of the Southern Wild’ rounded out the feature film nominations, the PGA said in a statement.The Producers Guild Awards will be handed out at a ceremony in Los Angeles on January 26 and will be a key indication of Hollywood sentiment ahead of the Oscars on February 24.
Many of the PGA-nominated movies are expected to feature strongly on the list of Oscar nominations when those are announced on January 10. Eight of the movies are also in the running for best picture Golden Globe trophies on January 13.
But the PGA had nothing for ‘The Hobbit’ from director Peter Jackson. It also left early awards hopeful “The Master” out of the running in a sign that the cult tale starring Philip Seymour Hoffman may be losing steam in Hollywood.
Batman movie ‘he Dark Knight Rises’ also failed to make the list.The PGA nominated the producers of five films for its animated movie honors – Tim Burton’s ‘Frankenweenie,’ Disney family films ‘Wreck-it-Ralph’ and ‘Brave,’ and ‘ParaNorman’ and ‘Rise of the Guardians.’
The PGA also named its picks for producers of television movies and miniseries. Ryan Murphy’s ‘American Horror Story,’ the team behind HBO film ‘Game Change’ about Sarah Palin’s 2008 vice presidential bid, and Britain’s modern twist on detective Sherlock Holmes ‘Sherlock’ were among the five making the cut.
They were joined by ‘Hatfields & McCoys,’ about a legendary family feud starring Kevin Costner who was also one of the producers, and the PBS chronicle of the 1930s drought ‘The Dust Bowl.’

3G Movie First Look Posters

3G Movie First Look Posters, 3G Movie First Looks, Neil Nitin Mukesh 3G Movie Wallpapers, 3G Movie Wallpapers, 3G Movie First Look Stills, 3G Movie Details, 3G Movie Movie Cast, 3G movie Trailer
Although the lead actors look super scared, the digital poster of 3G fails to send the chills down our spine. And it’s the ‘in your face’ effects that doesn’t impress us much
Neil Nitin Mukesh and Sonal Chauhan’s 3G, shot in the idyllic Fiji islands, is a horror flick that’s slated to release on March 15, 2013. The first look poster shows a callous hand smeared in blood breaking through the screen of a mobile phone. And the lead pair – Neil and Sonal look all scared and nervous, while the tagline ‘A killer connection’ pops up on the screen.
But the poster looks very average and doesn’t pique our interest. Bollywood is not exactly known for doing justice to scary nail-biting flicks. In an effort to spice it up and make it commercial, the makers often fail to notice how clichéd their films tend to get. Shantanu Ray and Sheershak Anand’s 3G is about a couple who become a victim of a series of unfortunate events after they buy a 3G enabled phone while holidaying in Fiji. The concept sounds very run-of-the-mill already, but still we will wait to see if the treatment is good enough to make this film stand out. What’s your take, readers?

Justin Bieber calls paparazzo death tragic

Pop star Justin Bieber on Wednesday called the death of a paparazzo, who was chasing his white Ferrari in Los Angeles, a tragic accident and said he hoped it would spur action to safeguard the lives of celebrities, police and photographers.
Police said the freelance photographer, whose name has not officially been released, was killed by another driver on Tuesday evening after he crossed a busy highway to snap pictures of the Ferrari that had been stopped by police for speeding.
Bieber, 18, was not in the sports car, which was reportedly being driven by a friend. While I was not present nor directly involved with this tragic accident, my thoughts and prayers are with the family of the victim,” the “Boyfriend” singer said in statement.
Bieber, who is followed day and night by photographers, said he hoped the incident “will finally inspire meaningful legislation and whatever other necessary steps to protect the lives and safety of celebrities, police officers, innocent public bystanders, and the photographers themselves.”
Celebrity website TMZ.com said the photographer was following the Ferrari after seeing it pulling out of a Beverly Hills hotel on Tuesday evening, believing
Bieber was inside the car.
Los Angeles police said the photographer was seen taking pictures of the traffic stop and was ordered by highway patrol officers to return to his car for safety reasons. He was struck by another motorist while trying to cross four lanes of traffic.
Bieber was stopped by police for speeding on a Los Angeles freeway last July, when the Canadian teen sensation told police he was being hounded by paparazzi.
But a Los Angeles judge in November threw out criminal charges against the photographer who was charged in that case under a new California law aimed at cracking down on aggressive photographers and celebrity media. Judge Thomas Robinson called the 2010 law “problematic” and “overly inclusive.”
The death on Tuesday brought calls from some other celebrities for a halt to the sometimes 24/7 tracking of their activities at work, home and leisure.
Singer Miley Cyrus, 20, a frequent paparazzi target, sent out a stream of Twitter messages, referencing the death of Britain’s Princess Diana in a 1997 car crash while being chased by paparazzi in Paris.
“Hope this paparazzi/JB accident brings on some changes in ’13 Paparazzi are dangerous! Wasn’t Princess Di enough of a wake up call?!” Cyrus tweeted.”This was bound to happen! Your mom teaches u when your a child not to play in the street! The chaos that comes with the paparazzi acting like fools makes it impossible for anyone to make safe choices,” Cyrus added.

Ayodhyapuram Movie in more Trouble

Forthcoming Kannada movie Karnataka Ayodhyapuram is hitting headlines for wrong reason again. After being chased by a section of Muslim men, a couple of months ago for a scene where burkha-clad girl running away with a Hindu boy, now the title of the film has landed in trouble as the Muslim community is not happy with the title of the movie.
Several Muslim groups have raised their objections against the film citing that the film might hurt the sentiments of Hindu and Muslims leading to communal disharmony. They believe that the dark episode of Ayodhya riot of 1992 could lead to a lot of unnecessary tensions between the two communities. Hence, they are opposing the title of the film.
The groups have written a letter to the State Minority Commission, which has forwarded it to the Karnataka Film Chamber of Commerce. However, director Lava is not ready to change the title and has claimed that the movie is not about the Ayodhya riots. He says that the story revolves around a Hindu boy and a Muslim girl.
He wants the Regional Censor Board to watch the film and take a call on it. Karnataka Ayodhyapuram stars Rakesh Adiga and Nayana in the lead roles.

Dasari creating problems for SVSC

The makers of Seethamma Vakitlo Sirimalle Chettu who are expecting to make a merry with Sankranthi season are in store for a shock from Dasari Narayana Rao. In to the details, the makers of SVSC are already facing serious problems of lack of theaters due to heavy competition from Nayak. And now this competition seem to get tighter, Dasari who will be distributing Kamal Hassan’s Viswaroopam is reportedly forcing the actor to release Telugu version on January 11th along with the Hindi and Tamil versions.
A small example of how Viswaroopam can make thins miserable for SVSC, Nayak will most probably release in 100 theaters in Hyderabad city. At this moment, SVSC will be getting 70 theaters in the city. If Viswaroopam makes it on 11th, at least 20 theaters will be screening the movie which will make things tougher for SVSC on the opening day. The same trend is expected to continue every where in AP.
