Analysis:
Ram Charan starrer Rachcha was successful motion picture however the film was criticized for its conventional storytelling. In Panthera tigris, director Sampath Nandi side a lot of comedy still keeping his regular vogue.

The first 1/2 the motion picture is funny and has some humourous episodes however he couldn't maintain an equivalent tempo within the last half. all the same, the motion picture works as average fare as a result of its industrial parts like comedy, packed with skin show by heroines,  and hero Ravi Teja's fun act.

Since the story is extremely certain and easy, the director has tried to play the sport with comedy and dialogues. a number of the dialogues like 'when we tend to thought there would not be a lot of in style star than Rajinikanth in South Asian country, here came Pawan Kalyan', that will sure as shooting create mass audiences and therefore the fans come in mania.

There are dialogues of complimentary province Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu and Mahesh Babu's Srimanthudu.

Such reasonably dialogues and excellent funny episode by Prudhvi as Future Star Siddappa has created the primary [*fr1] terribly fun.

Post interval, like in Rachcha, the director has unable to stay the similar tempo as too several action sequences square measure thrown in. last half and foregone conclusion of the story and therefore the ending has created the motion picture simply a mean fare.

The questionable flashback episode of the hero and his mission is nearly just like Ravi Teja's recent motion picture Bhageeratha. Even Boman Irani's character is like Prakash Raj's in Bhageeratha. however director has modified the wrapping.

All in all, the film is associate degree out and out mass mortal.

Bottom-line: Regular Fare With Comedy

Rajinikanth, Suriya, Dhanush, Vishal, Karthi donate Rs 50 lakh for TN relief fund

  

Tamil actors Rajinikanth, Suriya, Karthi, Vishal and Dhanush have donated Rs 40 lakh to the Nadigar Sangam, which is collecting for relief fund for the rain affected people in Tamil Nadu.

Chennai has been hit by the massive rainfall and flood in the last couple of weeks. The schools and colleges were shut and the roads blocked by flood. The life of the general public has been affected by the recent calamity in Chennai, which has suffered a huge loss, of lives as well as material things.


Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa had sought Rs 2000 crore from the central government as relief for areas affected by heavy rains and floods in the state. But Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced a financial assistance worth Rs 939.63 crore. The Nadigar Sangam has come forward to support the chief minister, and it is collecting donations from the celebrities from the film industry.

Some stars like Vijayakanth, Rabhava Lawrence and Anirudh have donated for the cause last week. Suriya and Karthi met Nassar, President of Nadigar Sangam, and handed over a cheque of Rs 25 lakh towards CM Relief Fund on Saturday. Actors Vishal and Dhanush followed them and donated Rs 10 lakh and Rs 5 lakh respectively for the relief.


Rajinikanth's Sri Raghavendra Public Charitable Trust has donated Rs 10 lakh for the rain-affected victims of Tamil Nadu.

"As instructed by our Managing Trustee, Sri Rajinikanth, we are enclosing herewith a payorder of date bearing No. 056325. Drawn on Karnataka Bank, Chennai, for Rs 10,00,000 (Rupees Ten Lakhs Only) favouring CHIEF MINISTER PUBLIC RELIEF FUND, towards donation for rain affected victims of Tamil Nadu," reads the letter of Sri Raghavendra Public Charitable Trust.


It should be recalled here that Rajinikanth, Hansika, Suriya, Karthi, Kajal Aggarwal and a host of other celebrities made generous donation when Andhra Pradesh was hit by Hudhud cyclone last year. But now, the stoic silence of some celebrities has surprised many in the state. More stars from the Southern industry are likely to contribute to the flood relief fund.

Telugu actors Mahesh Babu, Allu Arjun, Jr NTR and Ravi Teja have, finally, come forward to support the victims of rain and flood in Tamil Nadu through their generous donation to Chief Minister's relief fund.

When some areas in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana were hit by Hudhud cyclone, a host of Tamil actors extended their support to the affected people by making generous donations. It's been a few weeks since the rain that flooded Chennai and other areas in Tamil Nadu began, but hardly any Telugu stars came forward to help. The Tollywood celebrities' silence and indifference to the rain-affected people had surprised many in the state. On Wednesday, some actors stood up to support the victimes. Stylish star Allu Arjun was probably the first T-Town star to announce a generous donation to the Tamil Nadu Chief Minister relief fund.On Wednesday, Allu Arjun took to his Twitter handle to voice his support to the Tamil people. The actor tweeted, "I would like to donate 25 lakhs to Chennai Flood relief! I spent 18yrs of my early life there. It made me who I am today. I love u Chennai."

Junior NTR has donated Rs.10 lakh to TN CM relief fund, while his brother Kalyan Ram contributed Rs.5 lakh. The young tiger also requested his fans to donate for the cause. He tweeted, "#PrayforChennai it's time to be humans by helping each other when nature tests our integrity. #PrayforChennai I request everyone to help the needed in the best ways possible.am gonna do mine."

Superstar Mahesh Babu has reportedly contributed Rs.10 lakh, while Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja donated Rs.5 lakh to TN CM relief fund. These five actors have donated Rs.55 lakh for the cause. Sundeep Kishan has also helped the people of Chennai by sending them 5000 food pockets.Mega family heroes Chiranjeevi, Pawan Kalyan and Ram Charan, Nandamuri Balakrishna, Akkineni Nagarjuna, Victory Venkatesh and some other lead actors are yet to announce their support to the people of Chennai. Interestingly, most of them had pursued their education or started their acting career in Chennai.

Review : Shankarabaranam – Just for few laughs

Release date : December 04, 2015

Rating : 2.75/5

Director :Uday Nandanavanam

Producer : M.V.V.Satyanarayana

Music Director : Praveen Lakkaraju

Starring : Nikhil,Nanditha,Anjali,Rao Ramesh

The aggressive promotions of Shankarabharanam created a huge buzz for the film. Starring Nikhil and Naditha in lead roles, this film has hit the screens today. Let’s now see how different will this attempt from Kona Venkat and Nikhil turn out to be.

Story:-

Gautam(Nikhil) is an American Indian who leads a carefree life. One fine day, he finds out that his dad(Suman) is bankrupt and has heavy debts. Left with no choice, Gautam’s mother decides to sell off her ancestral palace in Bihar and assigns this task to Gautham.

Gautam lands in Bihar only to know that his ancestral palace is occupied by his huge extended family. A disappointed Gautam, makes a plan to sell off the palace, and exactly when he is about to close the deal, he gets kidnapped by a notorious criminal gang.

What will Gautam do now ? How will he escape this deadly Kidnapping ? and How will he solve all his financial problems ? That forms the rest of the story.

Highlights:-

Even though this film is a loose remake of the Bollywood film Phas Gaya Re Obama, the way Kona Venkat has set it in Tollywood standards is quite good. Nikhil looks apt as an NRI and does his role with a lot of sincerity. He has worked hard on the American accent and manages to pull it off decently.

Nanditha is ok in her role and ably supports Nikhil. But the real star of the film is 30 years industry Pruthvi, who evokes superb comedy in the film. All his one liners and his hilarious role of a cop is a huge plus for the film. Saptagiri also does a decent job and makes things lively during the first half.

Second half is where the actual story starts and has some decent moments. The comedy punches, entire episode featuring Sampath and Nikhil has been designed well during the climax. There are some fun elements here and there which keep you entertained at times.

Minus Points:-

Kona Venkat has clearly revealed in all his interviews that he has left the bakra kind of template with this film. But sadly, same is the case here too and the only difference is that he makes a fool of too many gangs instead of one.

Anjali’s character has no weight and a star actress has been wasted in such a small role. After starting the proceedings with an impressive note, the feel is missed completely. As said earlier, except for some histrionics from Saptagiri, the first half has nothing much to offer.

Also, there are various kidnapping episodes and money dealings which create a bit of a confusion at times. First ten minutes of the second half looks silly.

Technical Aspects:-

Credit should go the cameraman for his splendid work. The way he has showcased the rustic locales of Bihar is quite brilliant. Also, the locations chosen and production values are pretty impressive. Music by is below average and could have been better.

Screenplay by Kona Venkat is jaded as many scenes go haywire. Editing is ok but certain family scenes in the first half could have been avoided. Coming to the director Uday, he has done a below par job in the film. The concept and story was good but his narration and execution was pretty ordinary.

Verdict:-

On the whole, Shankarabharanam is good only in bits and pieces. A dragged out first half, slow narration and some below par execution of crucial scenes spoil the effect most of the time. Having said that, you can try this film only for its unique story line and Pruthvi’s comedy punches here and there.

Review : Hate Story 3 (Sharman Joshi, Zarine Khan)

Review : Hate Story 3

Release date : Dec 4, 2015 

movie magazine Rating : 3.5/5

Director : Vishal Pandya

Producer : Bhushan Kumar, Vikram Bhatt

Music Director : Amaal Mallik, Meet Bros

Starring : Sharman Joshi, Zarine Khan, Karan Singh Grover, Daisy Shah Hate Story 3 was in the news from quite some time now. Starring hotties Zarine Khan and Daisy Shah, this film has hit the screens today. Let’s see how it is.

Story:-

Aditya Singh(Sharman Joshi) and Siya Singh( Zarine Khan) are a highly successful couple who run a huge empire. One fine day, they get a huge car as a gift. Upon investigation, they find out that the gift is from yet another rich business man Saurabh Singhania (Karan Singh Grover).

Intrigued by this, Aditya and Siya arrange a meeting with Saurabh. During this meeting, Saurabh promises the couple that he is ready to solve all their major problems in business only if Aditya allows his wife to spend a night with him. A furious Aditya leaves the meeting with his wife.

A disturbed Saurabh now decides to destroy Aditya’s empire and manages to successfully do so. Left with no choice, Aditya sends his personal secretary Kaaya(Daisy Shah) to find out Saurabh’s motto behind all this.

Who is this Saurabh ? What is his connection with the Aditya’s ? and will Kaaya successfully find out the truth behind all this ?

Highlights:-

As expected, all the so called sensuous scenes have been executed well and will go supremely well with the masses. The film has enough skin show which will bring in huge crowds to the theaters.

Zarine Khan surprises you with her bold avatar and carries of her sensuous look quite effortlessly. Music is superb and will be the major selling point of this film. Sharman Joshi is apt in role and does a decent job.

Karan Singh Grover is surprisingly good in role which has multiple shades. The revenge drama, mind games and suspense has been maintained well till the end.

Drawbacks:-

This film has serious adult content and is strictly for the youth. There are certain sensuous scenes which go over board and look cheap at times. Second half has certain illogical scenes and do not gel with the flow of the film.

Daisy Shah is pretty bad in her role. She needs acting lessons in the emotional department and looks out of place in the film. Except for her skin show, she has nothing much to offer. Story is quite predictable after a point as the proceedings becomes a bit slow.

Technical Aspects:-

As said earlier, music of the film is the biggest asset. All the songs are superb and have been shot quite well. Camera work is neat and all the so called sensuous scenes have been shot decently. Editing is sleek while the screenplay is impressive. Story by Vikram Bhatt is quite routine but the thrills executed are superb. Director Vishal Pandya sticks to his job and does what is required of him. He adds a bit of everything and plays it to the galleries quite well.

Verdict:-

On the whole, Hate Story 3 is one of the boldest films which has come out in the recent past. This erotic thriller is aimed at its target audience that is youth, and holds their attention with some superb and well executed sensuous scenes. The foot tapping music is icing on the cake and makes this film a good watch for its interesting twists and turns.

Review : Tamasha (Ranbir Kapoor, Deepika Padukone)

Release date : Nov 27, 2015,

 Rating : 3/5

Director : Imtiaz Ali

Producer : Sajid Nadiadwala

Music Director : A. R. Rahman

Starring : Ranbir Kapoor, Deepika Padukone

The audience are eager to see the rocking chemistry of Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone in Tamasha from quite some time now. The movie releases today and lets see how it is.

Story:

Ved (Ranbir Kapoor) and Tara (Deepika Padukone) are two strangers who meet during a holiday trip in Corsica. Tara is a fun loving girl and Ved takes advantage of this and starts to flirt with her in the trip. While they have already put their monotonous life behind, they realize that they have to get back to it after the trip comes to an end.

Tara now falls for Ved. But the twist in the tale is that Ved leads a different life and is a different person from what he was with her. How will the couple sort out their differences and will get back together after the trip forms the rest of the story…

Plus Points :

Now, how can anyone complaint about the wonder that Ranbir and Deepika look together. The ex-lovers’ on screen chemistry never fails to impress us. While Ranbir Kapoor, who has been unfortunate with his previous ventures, comes out as a star in this one. We do want to see Ranbir in more of such roles.

However, it is Deepika Padukone who easily takes all the limelight away. She is reveting and inspite of her character not been as strong as Ranbir’s, she makes sure to leave a mark with her wonderful performance. The two actors’ body language and amazing expressions are sure to watch out for.

Minus Points:

The movie is cliched. There, I said it. The strict father, the love trip, and a lot of scenes as well. Tamasha has a mixture of scenes from Wake Up Sid, Love Aaj Kal and even Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani in it. While in the first half one can only see the independence of the two characters, the second half is so deep, that it drowns you into emotions.

The story becomes a bit boring too, after the couple returns to their respective lives. The same kind of story was earlier attempted in Ek Main Hoon Aur Ek Tu and Tamasha lacks the desired newness in it. Imtiaz Ali, for the first time, did not manage to impress us. The director has kept Ranbir’s character in the second half, so boring that it depresses us to see such a good actor playing a Devdas.

Deepika’s character too did not get much exposure. Their journey is kept amusing, but gets tiring by the second half. We really hoped Imtiaz would have worked little harder on exploring the relation between the two characters rather than concentrating of Ved’s dilemma so much.

Technical aspects:

Lets start with the locations, which are superb. Imtiaz Ali lets Corsica speak to us and it is breathtaking in every way. The cinematography being equally good, covers the locales amazingly. Editing is excellent. Songs, which has already managed to create quite a stir already, are placed aptly in the plot.

Verdict:

On the whole, Deepika and Ranbir’s Tamasha is a half cooked meal and lacks the depth in many places. But some amazing performances, rich production values and songs make this film just a one time watch.

Review – Size Zero – Anushka’s show all the way

Release date : November 27, 2015

Rating : 3/5

Director : Prakash Kovelamudi

Producer : Prasad V Potluri

Music Director : M. M. Keeravani

Starring : Arya, Anushka, Sonal Chauha

​Anushka’s Size Zero has been in the news from quite some time now. After a huge round of promotions, the film which is directed by Prakash Kovelamudi has finally hit the screens​ today. Let’s see how it is.

Story:-

Sweety(Anushka) is a cute looking girl who suffers from overweight issues. Even after so many attempts, her mother fails to get her married. Disappointed with rejection all the time, Sweety decides not to marry in the near future.

This is also the time when she meets Abhi(Arya), an NRI who makes documentary films. Sweety falls in love with Abhi and starts getting closer to him. Twist in the tale arises when Abhi starts shifting his loyalties towards his stylish close friend Simran(Sonal Chauhan).

Disappointed with rejection yet again, Sweety decides to join a weight reducing program called Size Zero. Will Sweety be successful in reducing her weight ? What problems does she face during this time ? and Will she win her love back ? That forms the rest of the story.

Highlights:-

It would not be an exaggeration to say that Anushka is the only actress in Tollywood who can pull off such a role. The star heroine is just magnificent and makes the audience fall in love with her character and problems. Anushka is quite lively in her character and the hard work she has put in to gain weight clearly shows on screen.

Arya gives ample support to Anushka and performs well in his role. Prakash Raj once again impresses with his unique character. Sonal Chauhan is apt in her role and provides the necessary eye candy.

First half of the film is pretty good with ample entertainment and beautiful emotions. Special mention should also go to the way Anushka has been styled with her costumes. She looks cute and completely convinces in a chubby look. Urvashi is impressive in the role of Anushka’s mother.

Drawbacks:-

Once again, yet another Tollywood film falls flat during the second half. After narrating the film so convincingly during the first part, the makers shift focus to things which could been easily mellowed down.

What could have been a very emotional and cute looking love story is spoilt with a unnecessary showcase of Size Zero weight loss program. The film deviates a bit during the second half as some unwanted scenes and emotions take center stage. The simplicity, romance and cuteness in the film is lost and makes things tedious.

Technical Aspects:-

Production values by PVP are good and credit should go to them for coming ahead to attempt a unique script like this. Camera work is very good and highlights Anushka and the surroundings quite well. Screenplay is let down during the second half as the film loses its grip a bit. Editing is sleek and M M Keeravani’s music score gels with the mood of the film well.

Coming to the director Prakash Kovelamudi, he had everything right for this film. Right from the story, star cast and performances, he manages to do a decent job. Had he taken a bit more care during the second half the effect and connect would have been even better.

Verdict:-

On the whole, Size Zero is a film which has some interesting moments going its way. Interesting premise and a superb first half are basic positives of this film. If you manage to ignore the mediocre second half and predictable nature of the script, you can easily give this film a shot for Anuhska’s stunning performance and some feel good moments.

Katrina's got company: This person would choose Ranbir over Salman

This filmmaker is unfazed by the Ranbir Kapoor's poor run at the box office. In fact, the director adds that he prefers to work with a risk-taker like him than a "boring" actor like Salman Khan. kathina kaif chose Ranbir Kapoor over Salman Khan in a personal relationship, even filmmaker Anurag Basu would do the same but for professional reasons. Basu, who is yet again collaborating with Ranbir, for his next film Jagga Jasoos is unfazed by the actor's poor run at the box office. In fact, the director adds that he prefers to work with a risk-taker like him than a "boring" actor like Salman Khan.

Basu, who has earlier directed Ranbir in Barfi!, said he admires Ranbir's experimental nature the most. "I am glad there is an actor like Ranbir who is taking the risk. There are not many actors, who would do it. He is not like Salman who is doing same thing, film after film. He is boring. How can you do that?," Basu told PTI on the sidelines of NFDC Film Bazaar.

The director said Ranbir's risks may not be paying off the way he would want it to, but at least as an actor he is getting the satisfaction of doing varied roles. "It is not paying off but at least he is getting the satisfaction of doing those films. He is playing different characters, they are so different form each other. Very few actors do that," he said Ranbir's last two releases Besharam and Bombay Velvet bombed at the box office but Basu feels it is not the actors fault. "In India people blame actors for the failure of a film. But it is not up to them, it is the director. But still people blamed Ranbir.

Jagga Jasoos, which also also stars Katrina Kaif, is set to hit the screens next year.

Aamir trolled for intolerance remarks by RGV

Sensational film maker and twitter King Ram Gopal Varma has expressed his views on the latest controversy triggered by Aamir Khan’s remarks on intolerance in India. Earlier Ram Gopal Varma directed and produced superhit Bollywood movie “Rangeela” in 1995, took the twitter and asked him is India is truly intolerant. He tweeted,” If Aamir,Sharuk and Salman the three biggest stars of the Hindu country "India" are Muslims, I don't understand where intolerance is ? In a predominantly Hindu country,if 3 Muslims can become the biggest iconic super stars that itself proves the majority aren't intolerant. Some celebs complaining about Intolerance should be the last ones to complain becos they became celebs in a so called intolerant country. Isolated incidents cant be taken as sign of intolerance and the super stardom of 3 Muslims is proof enough of the vast majority's tolerance”.

Review : Cheekati Rajyam – Slick action thriller

Release date : November 20, 2015
Rating : 3.25/5
Director : Rajesh M. Selva
Producer : S. Chandra Hasan, Kamal Haasan
Music Director : Mohamaad Ghibran
Starring : Kamal Haasan, Trisha, Madhu Shalini
Off late, Kamal Haasan has been doing some interesting films and one among them is Cheetaki Rajyam. The action thriller has finally opened today after a huge round of promotions. Let’s now see how it turns out be.

Story:-
Diwakar(Kamal Haasan) is a secret agent in the narcotics department. He along with his colleague plan a secret deal and get hold of some expensive drugs which are owned by the dreaded Vital Rao(Prakash Raj).
Left with no choice, an upset Vital Rao kidnaps Diwakar’s son and demands him to return back his parcel. Rest of the story is as to how Diwakar frees his son from the evil clutches of Vital Rao and where does Mallika (Trisha) feature in all this set up.

Plus Points:-
Kamal Haasan is the biggest asset of this action thriller. Right from his body language to his performance, everything is top class. The way Kamal gets into his character and showcases serious emotions throughout the film is just outstanding. Trisha is apt in her role and all her confrontational scenes with Kamal are very good.
Madhu Shalini looks super cute in her tiny role and does complete justice. First half of the film is quite racy and has some edge of the seat action episodes. The various twists that come during this time have also been executed well. Prakash Raj once again does a superb job in his negative role and entertains the audience with his antics.
All the action sequences have been choreographed quite stylishly. The intense fight between Trisha and Kamal Haasan looks awesome and has been shot superbly. Background score is yet another asset as it lifts the proceedings to another level.

Minus Points:-
Even though there are not many boring points, the proceedings taking their own time to wrap up during the second half. After a racy first half, narration dips slightly and makes certain scenes to go on and on.
Climax of the film is also stretched out as some unnecessary scenes spoil the feel of the film. Second half lacks the necessary twists and story of the film is quite simple and has nothing much interesting to offer.

Technical Aspects:-
Camera work is top class and showcases the entire proceedings in a superb light. The pub set showcased in the film is top class and enhances the proceedings big time. As said earlier, background scores is brilliant and Gibhran score brownie points in this department.
Dialogues are neat and editing could have been a bit crispier in the second half. Screenplay is quite racy and lack of songs also help matters even more. Coming to the director Rajesh Selva, he has done a good job and narrated this French remake in a decent tone and with ample interesting moments.

Verdict:-
On the whole, Cheekati Rajyam is a slick action thriller with interesting moments going its way. Racy first half, Kamal Haasan’s performance and some stylized action episodes are huge assets. On the flip side, a predictable story line and a slightly dragged out second half spoil things a bit. All those who like action thrillers will end up loving it big time and for the rest it ends up as just a decent watch this weekend.

At times the motion picture additionally leaves in you in confusion mutually is unable to decipher what the motion picture is attempting to mention as several contradictory statements keep returning in.

Sukumar has given some classic touches to the script that takes it to a different level and causes you to forget all its shortcomings. there's a sub plot of hero's folks broken wedding that was later used for the belief of hero. that's dead fantastically and nobody will provides a higher ending than this. Sukumar has excelled as a author in giving good ending to Kumari.

All in all, Kumari 21F can connect with youth and therefore the those that prefer to see daring content. This try is kind of uncommon.
