My Movie - Yamadonga

Yamadonga
The image “http://www.idlebrain.com/images3/wp-yamadongathumb.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.
Yamadonga-“is it a remake of the super hit of yesteryear’s Yamagola?” was my first feeling when I heard about the movie. And it was true to an extent. The movie has all the fantasy elements of the old version and also a number of other things which captivate u and hold you spell-bound for a complete 3 hours.

The first surprise you get once the movie has started is an extremely slim and fit looking NTR. It took me almost the whole time to actually believe that this was the same guy who had done Rakhi….

Then there is the plot-a petty thief who gets killed by Yama when he scolds the latter. This thief is so clever that he usurps even Yama’s power and threatens his place in heaven!!! The entire naraka episode is filled with anecdotes and comedy. Superb dialogue delivery by the 2 yamas (NTR and Mohan Babu) brings the house down.

The songs are an added asset to the movie. They go along with the flow and are foot-tapping.

Coming to the cast-Priyamani is really sweet as the curbed and tortured heiress; Mamta Mohandas entertains with her Nellore dialect (abbayya….). Rambha sizzles in the item song just as she did in Desamuduru.

And last but definitely not the least-NTR is the toast of the film. This being the first film of his that I’ve watched, it’s been an awesome experience. He’s an absolutely great actor, a stupendous dancer and a good comedian. To top it all, he’s enticing in his new look.

SO all you guys who have any misconceptions about watching this movie, brush them aside and GO FOR IT!! (You’ll never regret your decision- Young Yama nijanga iragesadu)

Is Devi Insecure About Mamatha Mohandas?

The image “http://www.greatandhra.com/newsimages/mamta21188892065.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

Rumors are there that Devi Sri is not too happy with her present love interest Mamtha working with certain co-stars.

Buzz is that due to this, Devi Sri insists on accompanying Mamtha for most of her film assignments.

Devi Sri even recently accompanied Mamtha for the song shooting sessions of Homam that has Jagapathi Babu opposite Mamtha.

Sources claim that Devi Sri is not too happy with Mamtha working with certain co-stars and that is why he was seen tagging along with her for her shoots.

Is Devi Sri feeling insecure about his beautiful girlfriend?

'Not at all', claims insiders and adds, "DeviSri is merely being extremely supportive of Mamtha's Tollywood career."

At the shoot of 'Homam' Devi was reportedly giving some tips for Mamta on acting and tries to teach voice modulation and emoting in Telugu.

One of the co-directors of the "Homam" confirms Devi Sri's presence on location.

But they are not ready to accept their relationship. It is rumored that Devi's mentor role is the reason for lots of opportunities in acting and singing for Mamtha.

Puri's Neck on the Chopping Block?

The image “http://www.greatandhra.com/newsimages/puri1188884902.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

Chirutha release has been postponed once again. Reason? Chiranjeevi wants to personally supervise the pre-release publicity.

And the one man who is most anxious about the fate of Chirutha, of all people, is director Puri Jagannath. He has done his best, but still some doubts linger. There was news that he did not have a completely free hand in direction and that there was some interference (Darsakathna Paryavekhshana!). The re-shooting of some sequences once again in Bangkok is just one example.

Now Puri is in an unenviable position. His position is like – 'Heads you win, tails I lose' or if the film is a hit, then all credit goes to Ram Charan and if the film does not do well for any reason, then all blame is put at Puri Jagannath's door.

So Puri must be praying really hard, more than Chiranjeeevi and Ram Charan Tej, for the success of the film.

"I wanted to be married like my sister Jyothika and want to have a great family life" she added talking in trivial grounds. When asked, why she is not finding the right guy, Nagma joked that she has a 'clinical disorder' (about switching relation ships.)

The image “http://www.greatandhra.com/newsimages/genelia21188893204.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

Hot belle Genelia is a self-confessed 'loser in love'.

Genelia has had her share of heartaches in life. But the lissome actress says every relationship gone wrong has taught her and given her strength to be somebody in life.

Of late, Genelia has been linked with her Tamil co-star Bharat. Some reports have even gone to the length of alleging that Genelia is in a live-in relationship with Bharat.

The Bommarillu girl denies these rumors, saying that Bharat 's family is extremely close to her family. Genelia also clarifies that Bharat is just a friend and she has never stayed at his place, so the question of a live-in relationship does not arise at all.

However, according to her close friends, Genelia did admit that she has burnt her fingers in love. She also admitted that she is a very possessive and passionate person.

"I was in love once, but I'm not in love with anybody now. I am a loser in love… but the pain in my heart has helped me achieve what I wanted – to be an actress!" Genelia is quoted as saying.

Genelia has completed Nelakanta's 'Mr Medhavi' with Raja.

Asin Asks Big Money For a Small Role

The image “http://www.greatandhra.com/newsimages/asin11188893088.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

Asin seems to have become pricey ever since she signed her first Bollywood movie that is a remake of Gajani.

While Asin's high-headedness is not something new, she has been on a high pedestal since she signed Bollywood movie along with ace actor Amirkhan. Having clinched such a big project, Asin has been making quite unreasonable demands for her acting fee in southern films.

She is reported to have charged a hefty sum for her marginal role in Nag's DON.

But nothing comes close to the money she demanded from the makers of DON for just a small cameo in the film.

Director Lawrence had approached Asin with the offer of just a one-scene appearance at the movie's end. Asin was not even required to shoot for an entire day. An hour's shooting at the most would have been enough to shoot her scene with Nagarjuna.

For this cameo appearance, they had an offer of Rs 10 lakh for Asin. But the busty babe gave the director a shock of his life by demanding Rs 50 lakhs.

Even producer Nag was stunned because even the collective payment to the movie's heroines doesn't come anywhere close to the sum quoted by Asin.

And when producer cum hero Nagarjuna heard about Asin's demand, he had a hearty laugh. The cameo is going to be completed with one more actress from Mallu land-may be Nayantara!.

Buzz: Actress's Bathroom CDs In Koti Market

The image “http://www.greatandhra.com/newsimages/monicabedi1188882300.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

It is said that Monica Bedi was shot in video while taking bath in the prison. A few national news channels have show those bits and traces of that video as well. Since that's abused by many, the channels have stopped rolling them.

But there is fresh information in air that the CDs are now being sold out illegally by the road side CD vendors in Koti Market. It was also said that they were made prints and being sold out in gray market. But when greatandhra.com bureau made an attempt to investigate on this, the CDs weren't found any where.

The CDs were sold in similar way when a few alleged news bits were out earlier that a heroine was shot while bathing in her hotel room etc. Anyway, there should be thorough check on this and the moral policing should be maintained. Only sudden checking by police in civil dress would curb those acts.

Screen Buzz: Is Chiranjeevi Not An Actor?

The image “http://www.greatandhra.com/newsimages/ntr11188808966.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

Is Chiranjeevi not an actor? This is the impression that Ramya Krishna gave yesterday in her program 'Jara Masti Jara Dhoom'. She asked to tell good qualities in the following personalities in rapid fire-

Late NTR, ANR, Kamal Hasan, Rajni Kanth, Amitabh Bachchan!

Jr NTR answered:
NTR-Dedication
ANR-Romance
Kamal Hasan- Dance and Acting
Raji Kanth- Style
Amitabh Bachchan- Height

Then where is Chiranjeevi in the list? The program would have got more boost, had Ramya Krishna asked to tell about Chiranjeevi as well. There have been some impressions that there is an iron curtain between Chiranjeevi and Jr NTR. That curtain would have gone if asked to tell about Chiranjeevi. What Ramya! Use such occasions to erase wrong impressions in public.
