We will release `Maska` on our own – MS Raju

‘Maska’ is a high budget movie produced by MS Raju on Sumanth Art Productions banner, featuring Ram, Hansika and Sheela in the main cast. Director B. Gopal has made this movie on the renowned production banner. The company holds credit for hits like 'Sathruvu', 'Devi', 'Okkadu' and 'Varsham'. The director has also earlier rendered the super hit films 'Samarasimha Reddy', 'Narasimha Naidu', 'Indra' and 'Bobbili Raja'.

The recently launched audio of ‘Maska’ is a chartbuster hit which has become one more reason to anticipate the movie. With a number of pluses added to it, distributors are competing with one another with glossy lucre to buy the movie’s distribution rights.

But, producer MS Raju’s decision to release the movie himself throughout the state of AP has come as surprising news to everyone. On being questioned the same, consenting to the risk factor involved in marketing a highly budgeted movie like ‘Maska’, he retorts that his friends and well wishers have made this advise for him to undergo this step.

‘Among them, it was my close friend and producer D. Suresh Babu who wanted me to do it. He was quite impressed with ‘Maska’ and his suggestion for me to release ‘Manasantha Nuvve’ turned fruitful earlier. Because of him, I raked in huge profits due to the movie’s grand success. I am confident ‘Maska’ will be one more super duper hit on our production banner,’ says MS Raju.

‘The music is already receiving rave reviews which has given me double the hope. So, keeping all these things in mind, we are going to release ‘Maska’ on our own in AP. It will be Sankranti Gift for 2009, from Sumanth Arts’.

I am not a glam prop: Tamanna

In these days of heroine’s being utilized only for glamour roles, a disparate actress Tamanna retorts, “I am not a glam prop in my movies.”

Budding actress Tamanna debuted to Telugu cinema in ‘Sri’ paired up with Manoj. A bad start as the movie turned out to be a disaster at the box office. Yet, she made a comeback with ‘Happy Days’ directed by Shekhar Kammula. The blockbuster flick of 2007 bought wide fame for the actress and baked her in glory.

Since then she has been busy acting in both Telugu and Tamil in a number of movies. Her upcoming movie in Telugu is ‘Konchem Ishtam Konchem Kashtam’ opposite Siddharth.

During a recent talk with the star, she expressed her choicest roles and her desire to enact characters which could be admired by family and youngsters alike. My presence on screen should be elegant and not revealing which might embarrass the audience.

On a question over the glam part, she said,” I would like to play in roles that give me an opportunity to act and attain a name as an artist. I don’t want to be stamped as a glamour heroine and I suggest the same for everyone as not to mark or treat any actress restricting them to glam roles.”[IndiaGlitz]

Aakasa Ramanna – The mystery man?

Manyam Entertainments earlier made ‘Hero’ starring Nithin and Bhavana in the lead cast. Artist-turned-director, GV Sudhakar debuted as a director with this movie produced by Manyam Ramesh.

The new movie under progress stars ‘Allari’ Naresh, Shivaji, Rajiv Kanakala as heroes along with whom Meera Jasmine and Gauri Pandit plays the heroines. Titled ‘Aakasa Ramanna’, the movie has an interesting backdrop that involves all the characters in succession.

Naresh, one of the three heroes preens that every character in the movie is meticulously worked out on screen. The feel will be so real which will make the audience see those characters live in the movie rather than actors. The twisty and surprising element in the movie is, no one would know who plays the title role of ‘Aakasa Ramanna’. The three Naresh, Shivaji and Rajiv Kanakala will be jumbled into the roles and will be unveiled near the end.

‘Wait till February to know who’s the mystery man playing the title role,’ says Naresh.

Example Of Nag`s Love For Chiru

Relationships are quite rare when it comes to the film industry but then there are those few good men who really value friendship and stand as perfect examples for many. One such duo that has often taken the first spot is megastar Chiranjeevi and yuvasamrat Nagarjuna.

Such is said to be their intimacy that they would not first think of each other during any crisis so when the episode of Srija's marriage happened, Chiru called up Nag on his personal mobile while the star was at shooting. Usually, they don't call each other during work only if it is emergency so when Chiru called, Nag's assistant picked it up and informed that Nag was busy so not able to talk now.

Later after about fifteen minutes when he informed Nag, he is said to have got some real good firings from Nag and within minutes, Nag called for pack-up and informed the director that he had to attend to a personal commitment. Ironically, today Nag is canvassing for Congress party while Chiru is busy with his Praja Rajyam Party. One hopes that their friendship still remains intact.
