If movie making were to be compared to Cricket, then the protagonist of this movie would be Jaques Kallis, and if it were to be football he would be Xavi Hernandez, and when it comes to Tennis he would be the John Mcenroe. The point here is to draw the attention to his amazing screen presence

When it comes to Telugu film industry, there is nobody who can quite catch up with the energy levels shown by this man. He has time and again proved that the basic ingredients of a movie are not what he is driven by. In fact, it is ENTERTAINMENT that drives him or rather he is the driving force for Entertainment. When it comes to carrying the movie on his shoulders, he has proved that he is second to none

Venki, Bhadra, Dubai Seenu, Krishna, Kick and more films of his have proved the fact that he can share a crackling chemistry with anybody and everybody. That he acts in a minimum of three movies per year makes him the distributors favourite hero and the growing number of female audiences in the theatre are a pointer to his rising popularity

He provides entertainment to the tee and makes you forget everything else for the two hours that you are in the theatre. He is caught in an image vortex and is punished heavily if he tries to deviate off the track. Neninthe, Naa Autograph, and Shambo Shiva Shambo bear the testimony to the aforementioned fact

That we are losing a good actor to the trappings of stardom is indeed regrettable but as the body language of this man says, let us enjoy for what he is worth and not judge his value by versatality but by the tremendous business value that he gets to a movie

It is said that comedy is an art that is difficult to perfect but here is a man who is well known for his comic timing and has made the same into an art-form. A lot of heroes have tried to venture into his genre of movies but have met with sound disapproval from the audiences (Nagarjuna in Ragada being the latest example)

So what is it in this movie that makes it tick? For one, the acceptance by the audience that there is no story in the movie. It also works for the movie that the hero has got the pea gun dialogue delivery intact and can do the act over and over and over again, much to the glee of the ticket payer. So without concentrating on any other person/thing in the movie, it’s full paisa vasool because of the person we call Mass Maharaja Ravi Teja

There was a time , when I was a Chiranjeevi fan, to an extent that I even defended his flop movies such as Rickshavodu, Big Boss and others of the same ilk. For me he was was the ultimate star- the superstar. And hearing tales of Amitabh Bachchan from my father did nothing to alter my views on Chiranjeevi's superstardom Towards the end of my graduation, that is circa 2005 in April, two movies released- Mumbai Express and Chandramukhi. I went to Mumbai Express for the first day first show and was not impressed. Rajnikanth, coming off a colossal flop called  Baba  and Chandramukhi was touted to be his comeback vehicle. Since we had nothing to do, we dragged ourselves to Chandramukhi and I was impressed with the fact that as a superstar, he allowed the female protagonist to run away with the credit Well when Sivaji released, I got to see Rajni mania first hand and what a sight it was! I was in Bangalore and there was a serpentine queue to procure the tickets. The sheer magnitude

Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol

BREAKING NEWS: Allu Arjun and Ravi Teja from Telugu movies make a fleeting appearance in Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol. Doesn't matter that they appear in a TV footage in the movie From the time it was announced that Anil Kapoor would be a part of the Mission Impossible franchise, it was marked as an awaited movie in India. It was widely anticipated that he would play a major role in the movie. Though he serves as a major connecting link in the movie or rather the main reason, why the movie moves to India, he is projected as a lusting billionaire One of the very good things about the movie is its humour content. There are a lot of subtle one-liners by the guy who operates the computer and is the technical guru in the movie. The movie is about an evil mind getting his hand on nuclear warhead and the mission is to stop a full blown war between USA and Russia There are a lot of things that are interlinked in the movie. For example, at the beginning of the mission when it’s sa

Jab Harry met Sejal

  I am writing this after Shahrukh Khan came out of the box-office rut with a movie called “Pathaan”. I am writing this about a movie that contributed to the box-office rut; Jab Harry met Sejal.   What can you say about the movie that’s unsaid? It’s an Imtiaz Ali movie. It will showcase travel. It will have the protagonists mouthing philosophical dialogues about love, life and relationships. It will have the protagonists “finding themselves” during the journey.   Shahrukh Khan and Anushka Sharma put in earnest efforts in the movie, but the movie lets them down. While I was watching the movie, the person next to me (who wasn’t even watching) asked if Anushka Sharma was playing a Gujarati in the movie. That in my eyes is Anushka Sharma nailing her bit.   The problem with the movie isn’t the premise but how the director deviates from the premise often. While it may be deliberate, it does seem that the director wants to leave his “signature”. At times, the movie does seem like
