Apocryphal Stories !!!

With the arrest of Raviteja's brothers in the drug scandal, it is proved yet again that the people in the industry are not free of the vices. A few years ago it was the controversy of "Casting Couch" in the industry. Well coming to that, isn't it upto the individual what he/she wants to do, but the media for the want of news sometimes highlights all these But with the entry of Filmstars into the social networking world via the micro-blogging site Twitter, they too are having a go at the ever prying journalists. Washing their dirty linen in public, the actors and journalists are stopping at nothing, thus providing the common-man the fodder for their discussions The newspapers quote the example of Sanjay Dutt and can the film stars counter that? Well because of one example you can't say that the entire industry is that way

Sehwag has been the captain guiding the Indian ship in the troubled waters at Dambulla. Even the captain Dhoni has admitted to the same. One huge factor why Sehwag has to do this is the absence of "Sachin Tendurlkar" A cursory glance at the records reveal that starting from Jan 1, 2008 India have won 47 matches out of the 80 matches they have played. Dissecting the numbers even more, the presence of Sachin Tendulkar was available for only 35 of the matches and India won 21 of those matches, meaning India has won 26 matches out of the remaining 45 matches Batting records for the period suggest that Sehwag, Dhoni, Gambhir, and Tendulkar are the cornerstones of the Indian batting Ever since he became the captain, Dhoni has been more a grafter of runs than being the man who imposes himself on situations. Gambhir, for all his beautiful Test match form has been found wanting against the short balls in the shorter versions of the game and that leaves us with Sehwag and Tendulkar.

Was wondering how a movie gets branded as hit these days? Is it by releasing with maximum number of prints or having a run at the theaters unchallenged. Well releasing it with a maximum number of prints ensures that it has a good opening weekend, which would ensure sizeable returns and then the fate depends on how people have liked it and word of the mouth With the emergence of Overseas territories, the so-called C-grade and D-grade centers have been put on the back burner and the plethora of websites offering reviews also does not help the case So what will make you watch a movie ?

"Inti peru Seenu, vonti peru don-u, abbo Amitabh Bachchan ki chala pedaa fan-uu" These dialogues uttered by Raviteja uttered in the movie Don Seenu pretty much give out the synopsis of the movie Entertainment is defined as the action of providing amusement or enjoyment and Raviteja's movies have them in abundance and this movie too not disappoint. Right from the time he notched up his first big hit with Idiot he provides high-octane entertainment. With the prefix "Mass-Raja" attached to his name it tells us the kind of audience he endears himself to This movie is no different from the kind of movies we are used to from Raviteja. Credit to the man that inspite of so many movies, he still manages to elicit laughter from the audience. He is one of the few heroes who can carry the entire movie on his shoulders Coming back to the movie itself, it's one of the those movies where hero meets the heroine and fights happen and they fall in love. Shot in picturesque lo

No he did not come into the Test side by scoring a century in his debut matches in Ranji Trophy, Duleep Trophy, or Irani trophy nor did he say "Main Kheloonga" when he was bleeding from the nose in his debut series No he was not put through the drill of waiting for five years to earn a recall to the squad after being taken on a tour of Australia and no he did not score a majestic century in the headquarters of cricket in his debut match No he did not go through the rings in domestic cricket and have an enclosure in your home town with fans shouting hoarse for your inclusion in the team and when included score a superb 95 and play lone hands in many famous victories All he did was to debut in a celebrated win of our times at Motera by top scoring in the crucial second innings, scoring a 51 thus enabling Javagal Srinath to blast away at the opposition. Don't think you can guess who he is! He is the man who top-scored in that Test match at Cape Town with an unbeaten 35. Li

Exactly what do you expect from a tournament, where domestic teams of one of the weakest Test nations are plying their trade? Boring cricket, Tiring cricket or not at all cricket! Well being privy to some of the matches, it can be safely said that Trinidad & Tobago had more interest in the proceedings than Barbados, where the first half of the tournament took place In what can be seen as a turn of events sort of things, a spinner has been awarded the MVP award. After the retirement of Ambrose, Fidel Edwards has been the most successful bowler with 122 wickets and it has been ten years since Ambrose has retired Coming back to the tournament itself, the cricket board pumping in the money that it actually did was encouraging but one feels that it was pumped into a wrong cause in a wrong format. Its the Test matches that West Indies is struggling in and the money could have been pumped into the longer format. One of the biggest positives from the tournament is that the paying public h
