Bollywood actress Preity Zinta might be going through a rough patch in her professional life with her last release not minting enough money at the Box Office but personally, the dimpled actress is in a "happy space".
In an interview to Mumbai Mirror, Preity Zinta spills the beans on her relationship status. She says, "Yes, I'm in a relationship with someone nice. Finally, I have time for myself as the cricket doesn't need me physically."
Last year, Preity Zinta had filed a case against former boyfriend and business partner Ness Wadia that accused him of assaulting her. The duo continues to work professionally. But Preity couldn't care less. "I'm in a happy space with a happy guy. And I want to be as far from negativity as I can!" she shrugs.
"I've reached closure with Ness. My glass is always full, never half empty and will remain that way," she signs off.
Apart from the responsibility of her IPL 8 team - Kings XI Punjab, Preity Zinta is now gearing up for judging the seventh season of the dance reality show 'Nach Baliye'.
A city Civil Court hearing into a petition lodged by actor O.Kalyan to withhold the result of Movie Artists Association presidential election's result has expressed its dissent at it, and fined the actor with 10,000 rupees for unnecessarily dragging the issue into public. Finally, line got cleared for the results to be announced.
Earlier, actor Rajendra Prasad and former heroine Jayasudha contested in MAA elections for President's office for the next 2 years. Though the elections are concluded long back, a Court order barred the election officer from declaring the result citing a petition lodged by O.Kalyan, who accused that the process of elections has many discrepancies. After hearing arguments of Kalyan, outgoing president Muralimohan and comedian Ali, Court found that there is nothing worry.
Apart from quashing Kalyan's petition, Court stated that presiding officer of the election could declare the result whenever he wants to do so. Film circles are abuzz that either Friday or Saturday, the results will be announced.
Irrespective of how much fun we want to create, throwing jokes on Indian Independence Day is like hitting the stomach of mother with our legs. Especially film folks should learn not to make fun of our country, its people and those key dates.
Giving no importance to the fact that Independence Day was something we achieved after millions sacrificed their lives and life-times, comedy actor Sampoornesh Babu has made utmost comedy of it. Calling that "April 15th, 1947" as our Independence Day, he wanted to create max fun to announce that his "Kobbarimatta" movie's song trailer will be released today. Sampoo knows that this ad will draw flak, but still his sensation loving mindset doesn't stopped him from making fun of Independence Day.
In an extension to that comedy, Sampoo came up with another ad today, where he claimed that something like a terrible mistake happened other day. The latest ad claims that for the mistake happened, they are going to send YouTube revenues of the film's song to "Central Army Welfare Fund". This looks like another crap idea to cover a mistake. How much revenue does this Youtube song generates?
ABCD 2 is the latest dance-based 3D film and the trailer is all set to get released on April 22nd. On the other hand, the First Look poster of this Bollywood film got leaked last night just before it's official launch that is scheduled for today. Film's lead actors Varun Dhawan and Shraddha Kapoor were seen fuming their anger about unwarranted leakage through a series of tweets.
"#ABCD2 is a very special film and Remo has me, Shraddha and the crew have broken our backs trying to do justice to this film. So, it feels really crappy when someone leaks your poster. This film is not about any star, it's about dance & dancers so everybody who loves dancing, please give us your support," tweeted Varun Dhawan. "It hurts more when Remo sir, Varun, myself and each and every dancer & team member has put their heart and soul in to making this film," said Shraddha.
The response for the poster has been great but not without any remarks. Most of the fans of Shraddha Kapoor started complaining about the mysterious resemblance of their star to another actress Alia Bhatt from the side angle. They are of an opinion that the makers should have cross checked the poster twice before letting it out.
In the long list of hero's from the movie industry background its the mega camp whose number is more compared to rest from the filmy families. Mega hero Allu Sirish is making sincere efforts and trying his best to fit into the glamour industry which is filled with fame along with lot of money in it.
With back to back not so successful movies to his credit Sirish has took a break and concentrating on his third film which will go into shooting floor shortly. As per officials reports Bengal beauty Tridha Choudhury has been signed as leading lady opposite Sirish in his fourth coming movie.

Tridha has acted with big star heroes, directors in Bengal and her recent released films collected 100 crores at box office. She is known for making perfect judgement for good movies and with her entry into mega compound with Allu Sirirsh is hinting that there is something strong in this movie. Watch the space for more updates folks.
During the Attarintiki Daredi movie time the hattrick film of Power Star Pawan Kalyan and Trivikram was announced out to media. In February, 2013 the title Koabali was registered at film chamber on the Power Star production house Pawan Kalyan Creative Works Pvt. LTD. But post AD release or during making of SOS there was no info about any developments from both Pawan-Trivikram about Kobali and it raised many doubts that the film got shelved.
Now trashing all the rumors director Trivikram has confirmed that Kobali film of his with Pawan Kalyan is still on. Already a good amount of money is been spent on the pre-production work of Kobali film and very soon an official announcement will be made along with providing more details, Trivikram added.
Kobali scripit work is still going on and it runs in the Rayalaseema background which has Trivikram trade mark style and things to satisfy mega fans. Pawan Kalyan is currentely getting ready to start shooting of Gabbar Singh 2 and Triivikram is waiting for Mahesh Babu to start their movie. After the completion of both the respective movies of hero and director , Koabali will take off.
Cast: Sunny Leone, Jay Bhanushali, Rajneesh Duggal, Mohit Ahlawat, Rahul Dev, Jas Arora Director: Bobby Khan Rating: 1/5
After the success of Ragini MMS 2 and a string of item numbers that focused on nothing but her curvaceous body, it's no wonder that Sunny Leone's the newest go-to-girl for producers who couldn't care any less for the A certificate to their films. Her latest, director Bobby Khan's Ek Paheli Leela, is another in that list: It's an unapologetic attempt at riding (even cashing in) on Sunny's oomph quotient.
There are spoilers ahead, so scroll down at your own risk.
The film opens with two princes -- Bikram Singh (Jas Arora) and Ranveer Singh (Mohit Ahlawat) -- fighting for a haunted piece of land because somewhere hidden in it is a 300-year-old sculpture of a lady by celebrated sculptor Bhairon (Rahul Dev). To add to the drama, the two princes are completely different from each other: Bikram is a criminal, and can kill without any qualms, whereas Ranveer believes in virtues like love and kindness.
Meera is a top model.
The second part of the story shifts to London where a famous model Meera (Sunny Leone) -- she's come from Milan and never travels by air -- walks the ramp for an Indian designer. The show is successful, but not so much for the beautiful Meera: Her drink is spiked, and when she falls unconscious (of course, not before she's done the mandatory song-and-dance sequence), she's packed off on a flight to India. She lands, we are told in Jodhpur, and goes straight into Ranveer's life, who's completely besotted by her.
There's even a third string to the film. This time, a small-time musician Karan (Jay Bhanushali) is dealing with a life-threatening problem: He's just shifted to a new house, but his life is turned upside down because of a recurring nightmare. On a priest's suggestion, he finds himself in Rajasthan, and here his life just turns worse.
Meera arrives in India for a fashion show.
Didn't we say Ek Paheli Leela's story is multi-layered? It is quite literally. In fact, it has so many layers that even director Bobby Khan, it seems, lost track of the multiple things he was handling. But what he never loses track of is his leading lady: Sunny's there in practically every frame of the film, mouthing cheesy lines, and always flaunting her seductive dance moves. Right from the first song, Desi Look, where the camera constantly zooms to her curves, to the clueless climax, she makes her presence felt by copying Urmila (Rangeela) to Aishwarya (Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam).
Fate brings Karan to Meera.
She is, without doubt, the biggest bait for Bobby Khan: Keep her on screen if you don’t want the audience to leave the hall.
Take these for cheesy one-liners: “Ek aankh mujh pe, duji kurti ke hook pe,” or “Glamour industry me success ka short cut hai…short skirt.” And, just so that her Indian fans are not disappointed, we're also told that she is from Mohali, and is very liberal with ‘Babaji di sau’.
There is no point talking about the logic behind Ek Paheli Leela, because there is none. This film is just another addition to a string of below average films such as Shaapit and Dangerous Ishq. Take this for logic, for instance. We have a weird priest here who decides the fate of a Mumbai-based musician by breaking the laws of Naadishashtra (an ancient technique which provides sages the power to view somebody’s past). You feel strange when a junior priest says: “Yahan bhoot-pret kuch nahi hai,” and then in the very next shot he says, “Yahan jo bhi ho raha, hai achcha nahi hai.” He goes on, “Iske bare me mere guru ji batayenge.”
Dude, people keep their mouth shut if they don’t know about their core area.
Will the mystery of Leela be ever solved?
If you haven't walked out of the hall by now, here's more. Listen to this conversation between a bunch of foreign models and Ahsaan Qureshi:
Model: How many languages do you know?
Qureshi: Hindi, English, Bengali, Purtgaali, Maa ki gaali, behan ki gaali. Aapko pasand aaya jalpaan, ab lijiye mera (gestures towards his crotch)…paan.
Want to walk out now?
If you made the mistake of wasting your time for this 'paheli' of a film, you could probably survive yet another reincarnation story. But why would you want to put Che Guevara in the background?
And, as if all this was not enough, there's one more thing that caught our attention: The naivety of the characters. Take this conversation between Ranveer and Meera.
Setting: Interior of a palace.
Time: Night.
Ranveer: Pyaar toh main pehle bhi karta tha, ab mohabbat bhi karne laga hoon.
Meera: Jee, main kuch samjhi nahi.
Seriously?
Needless to say that they married soon hereafter.
Ek Paheli Leela is regressive, illogical and completely dependent on Sunny Leone. She looks stunning and dances pretty well, but that much was also available on YouTube. Where is the film?
Writer-director Trivikram Srinivas is slowly losing his ground as his latest offering S/o Satyamurthy is too preachy to digest. The Allu Arjun-Samantha starrer has too many lectures aimed at the audience. Naturally, this may not go well with many. Also, the film is loaded with a slew of one-liners in the name of "values". While few are witty others are just forced dialogues that strain your brain.
Especially the examples cited by Rajendra Prasad during crucial portions of the film put you off. Even Allu Arjun is no exception to this at times. Director Trivikram wasted major portion of the film's first half in dealing with characters and it gets slightly better in the second half. There's a bit confusion on who's the main villain either Devaraj (Upendra) or Sampath Raj.
On other hand, S/O Satyamurthy is not a bad film either. But it only fails to meet the expectations of fans. Lack of entertainment quotient and too much melodrama work against the film. Even the songs composed by Devi Sri Prasad were not good either. Since Trivikram is riding high with Attarintiki Daredi success and Allu Arjun is buoyed with Race Gurram success, naturally fans expect much more better film. Nithya Menen, Adah Sharma revs up the glam quotient. The film's ensemble cast is an advantage. And even here Trivikram is not successful in utilising them to the full extent. Actors like Brahmanandam, Ali could have been handled well. On whole, S/O Satyamurthy is an average fare and it needs to be seen how the film works at the Box Office.
It's official. Actress Trisha Krishnan is out of her upcoming film to be produced by her husband-to-be Varun Manian. Taapsee Pannu is being considered and roped in for the same role in the yet-to-be-titled film. Set against the backdrop of Kumbakonam in Tanjavur district of Tamil Nadu, Taapsee pairs up with Jai. She will be essaying the role of a traditional village belle in the film. Thiru will be wielding the megaphone and the yet-to-be-titled film will be jointly produced by Sushanth Prasad and Varun Manian.
Although Trisha was the initial choice, but on the spur of moment decisions have been changed. Talks are going on with another actress to play important role. The film will start rolling by the end of April at Kumbakkonam as Taapsee portions are completely shot here and rest in Chennai.
Trisha hitched to Varun Manian on Jan 23 in a grand gala ceremony. The couple are going to tie the knot in a traditional wedding ceremony and an auspicious date, muhurat for wedding is yet to be finalised. Now that Trisha is out of a film ahead of her marriage, doubts surrounding whether Trisha is going to continue her acting career. Earlier she stated that she would continue her acting career, however, would refrain from glam roles. Let's wait and see.
Trivikram Srinivas’s directorial venture, after Attarintiki Daredhi, is a story of love, ethics and family values. Satyamurthy (Prakash Raaj) has two sons Viraj Anand (Allu Arjun) who relishes his life in abroad and the other son (Vennela Kishore) settles down with his family. Satyamurthy banks his life on ethics and moral values to live life to the fullest. Suddenly, Satyamurthy dies due to immense business losses and leaves behind heavy liabilities. That’s when Viraj Anand takes the driving seats and clear the huge debts and sets everything right. And there comes much needed twist in the tale and family face a few uncomfortable truths during their stay over there, which sets the premise of the film.
Star Performance
This brings us to star of the show. Allu Arjun is top-drawer. Every time he is up on the screen, you don’t want him to leave. His mannerisms, dance movements, high octane energy everything is tailor made for the actor. He should have restricted over usage of Manchu-ism in every other sequence, which was not so apprehensive. Of the ladies, Sneha better, precisely because her role s a tidbit more interesting than the other female fiddles. Adah Sharma looks ravishing in song sequences. Nithya Menon and Samantha Ruth Prabhu fit in perfectly in their limited characters. This a huge cast without doubt, and there is Upendra, Rajendra Prasad, Pavitra Lokesh, Sindhu Tolani, Vishnuvardhan and Ajay play the key characters and done their parts quite well. M S Narayana, Brahmanandam and Vennela Kishore almost seen in every important sequence and yet at times at times a smile or two does flash across your face.
Techinical Team
"S/O Satyamurthy" does not boast of a new story. The content seems to be a ready mix of several films, but the presentation is really boring and dragged to the core. Though the film drags in the first half, post interval it’s moves a bit fast and there are many attractive characters Sneha – Upendra – Rajendra Prasad who try to make it an interesting watch. The inclusion of comedy artists has also not helped the film. That is mainly because the sequences written for the artists lack credibleness. Even Vennela Kishore’s hallucination does not evoke laughs. Certainly the film is far from entertaining.
The director has been able to extract neat performances from all the artistes and the music complements the film's tone. But just an half an hour after the offset, the director tries to add a lot of unnecessary factors and overstresses some sentimental sequences which drag the film and spoil the narration with unwanted sequences rather focusing on morals and ethics of a father. The result is that the film which promises a lot in the beginning ends up as another dragging film with a pliant narration. There are too many parts, which are full of illogical elements and forced emotions. The climax is not only unconvincing but even tedious.
The music of the film is fine. Super Machi, Seethakalam and Jaruko Jaruko work well on the screen. Devi Sri Prasad been very lucky for Allu Arjun once again after Aarya , Bunny, Aarya 2 and Julayi. All in all, the groovy n soothing music makes the music lot more fun to watch and to listen to. Cinematography by Prasad Murella and the picturesque locals limning villages, foreign localities and grandeur of Kokapet set were nicely captured. Fight sequences were over the top. Editing by Praveen Pudi could have been lot better. Choreography of the songs is mediocre. Production Values of Haarika & Hassine Creations are all right.
Analysis
The recent trend in Tollywood Industry is to produce films, which are based on some popular films by retrograding the story lines and making few changes from the original films. Their huge budget, will be able to bring assemble a huge cast, but the narration and story that lacks the freshness. Similarly post his unsuccessful Khaleja with Mahesh Babu director Trivikram Srinivas has stopped working innovativeness and started presenting a rosy picture with Julayi and reached the heights of his career with family drama Attarintiki Daredi. Even S/O Satyamurthy is one such film. It’s a story of a father who raised his son with ethics, morals and family values. Trivikram tries his best to explain how a father plays a significant role in shaping up their son's career. But the way it has been presented leaves a lot to be desired at a runtime of 162 minutes.
Filmmaker Trivikram says his forthcoming Telugu release "S/O Satyamurthy" is an ode to every father.
"There are more films that have dramatised relationship with mothers. Many of us completely ignore the role of the father in our lives. For most youngsters, their fathers are their superheroes. But it isn't the same when they grow up," Trivikram told IANS.
"Quite late in our lives, we realise the importance of father. In some cases, by the time one realises the role of his father, it's too late. Through this film, we want to say loving your father for a few years doesn't count and he should be loved forever," he said.
Starring Allu Arjun, Nitya Menon, Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Adah Sharma in the lead roles, "S/O Satyamurthy" is the second time Arjun and Trivikram have collaborated after "Julayi". The film will release on Friday.
Star batsman and Royal Challengers Bangalore captain Virat Kohli was seen savouring the moves as his girlfriend, Bollywood beauty Anushka Sharma, set the floor afire with her performance at the glitzy opening ceremony of the Indian Premier League here on tuesday.
TV cameras kept zooming at Kohli as Anushka gyrated to the tunes of her popular movie songs at the Salt Lake Stadium here.
Seemingly embarrassed at first, the cricket icon was later seen smiling and watching the actress.
The hot and happening couple was on Monday spotted at the Kolkata airport together during their arrival for the IPL opener.
Director turned choreographer, Raghava Lawrence is not heard much in film circles these days. Apart from his health issue, the poor show of his last Telugu film "Rebel" in 2012 and a cheating case lodged by its producers have literally haunted him. After some gap, he is attacking with his favourite horror genre again, as he comes up with "Kanchana 2", another flick in Muni franchisee.
This time, he is going hard with a tonsured head and vibrant yellow-red look, as the first look of the flick scared us. Along with him, spicy beauty Taapsee and talented Nitya Menon are also getting ready to call the ghostly shots. The film went through Censors today and it was rated U/A. As masses are always liking Lawrence's films, this time he fixed on April 17th to cash on the summer holidays. Irrespecitve of big films like Mani Ratnam's Ok Kanmani and Kamal's Uttama Villain around, our choreographer is not stepping back.
Even in Telugu, the flick is likely to release on 17th only, without any change in date. Success of Kanchana 2 will decide fate of this choreographer as many producers got scared of him post Rebel due to his budget-thirsty ideas. Will horror puts Lawerence him on track? Wait and see.
There are various clauses in the contract an actor/actress signs with a producer regarding everything to everything in order to facilitate smooth transaction. Maybe it is promotional dates with a hero or heroine, or slipping into a bikini and smooching lips of co-star, there are clauses. Meet our lady producer, who has now introduced a special nudity clause.
Films like Love Sex our Dhoka, Ragini MMS and The Dirty Picture ring just one name in our mind. It is none other than Ekta Kapoor, the empress of Balaji Tele Films, who is on a spree these days to make sexplicit movies. As she buckles up to produce a new film titled "XXX" with newcomers, she has come up with interesting nudity clause. Bollywood is stunned to known about the clause, and actors who have signed the clause have signed a non-disclosure agreement also, which prevents them talking about it.
Many heroines and lead girls often cry foul about semi-nude scenes, lip kissing and resorting nudity during shooting times and to avoid such time-waste Ekta has come up with this nudity clause. Both men and women, those want to sing Ekta's movies should sign the clause. Seems like she is not going to leave anyone unexposed.
After landing an opportunity to groove for a special song in S.S. Rajamouli's magnum opus "Baahubali", model-turned-actress Nora Fatehi will next feature in an item song in Telugu action-comedy "Kick 2".
"Nora has been signed on for an item song in 'Kick 2'. The song will be shot soon in a specially erected set here," a source from the film's unit told.
"Kick 2", a sequel to the 2012 blockbuster, is being directed by Surender Reddy. The crew recently returned from Switzerland after shooting some songs.
Also starring Ravi Teja, Rakul Preet Singh, Ravi Kishan and Kabir Duhan Singh, the film is gearing up for release in May.
"Kick 2" is said to be the story of son of Ravi Teja from the first part.
Finally, the most prestigious film of the season Baahubali has completed the shooting of its first part Baahubali The Beginning. The film's Gummadikaya ceremony was carried out in a grand style and the entire unit was jubilant and yet emotional over the film's shooting coming to an end for the first part. The film's second part has completed upto 60% of its shoot already.
Currently, the post-production work is going on in full swing and the film is gearing up for a release this summer. However, there is a bit of uncertainty lying over the film's release. Earlier, Jakkanna himself had announced the magical date 15-05-15 as the release date. With hardly a month's time for the visual effects work and with the audio launch to be taken place, the film's release looks doubtful in May.
As per the buzz, the film may release in either June or July but it all depends on the Baahubali's Hindi distributor and top director and producer Karan Johar. We had already reported that Karan Johar bagged the Hindi rights for a whopping price. The Bollywood biggie is reportedly planning a never before promotional campaign which may consume lot of time and finances. So, since Baahubali will have its simultaneous release in Telugu, Tamil and Hindi, one has to wait until Karan Johar zeroes in on a date. Well, the long wait will be duly compensated by the film.
Nailing this legendary actor for sexually explicit scenes and offensive religious content has become almost a habit. Whatever the movie is, the first choice of word that comes from the mouths of few extreme, self-righteous activists is, BAN. Welcome to the show of universal hero, Ulaganayagan Kamal Haasan.
From Hey Ram to Dasavataram, Virumandi (Pothuraju in Telugu) to Viswaroopam, there is no film of Kamal that avoided a ban talk. A scene or lyric always hurts film lovers, who believe that hurting sentiments is the agenda of this highly talented creative hero. Today, Viswa Hindu Parishad joined that 'ban' chorus as they want "Uttama Villain" to be blocked from release. What's the reason? Because a lyric in one particular song which happens to be a conversation between Prahlad (Bhakta Prahladudu) and Hiranyakasip sounds controversial and hurts sentiments of Lord Vishnu worshippers.
Irony is that, the very same day VHP demanded a ban on Uttama Vilalin, Censor Board cleared it with clean "U" certificate and the film is confirmed for a May 1st release. There are times where Kamal's films are stopped from getting screened in the last minute. Fingers crossed!!
We have seen anchor Udayabhanu ruling the roost single handedly on small screen as she happens to be the anchor of all leading programs until Suma has risen like a phoenix. Of late, this tall and bubbly Hrudayanjali fame anchor is not much heard on the circles and there are enough reasons for that.
Owing to those unexplained reasons, Udayabhanu is having some uneasy moments the other day at the audio success meet of S/o Satyamurthy held at Vijayawada. For her continuous rhetoric about backward classes of Telangana region through a special TV show before the general elections in 2014, she is branded as Telangana ambassador. As everyone remembers her shows aired on popular Telugu News channel, how she would have felt anchoring a public event amidst roaring Andhra crowds?
In a separate context, Udaybhanu lambasted a star-comedian for terming heroines at audio functions as "Filanther Phagidis" and other absurd comparisons. She even broke to tears during a TV discussion to say that some film industry men treat their female-colleagues as piece of meat. Surprisingly, the other day she has to invite the same person onto stage whom she criticised for his expletives and double entendres. Quite uneasy!!!
Beautiful and talented actress Adah Sharma has spelled her magical charm on Telugu audiences and gave Heart Attack to many with her debut film in Tollywood. Still the Hayathi spell is on everyone and Adah is gearing up for her second Tollywood release S/O Satyamurthy this week at box office. Here is an exclusives personal interview of Adah Sharma for gulte.com where she speaks about her childhood crush, working experience with power star, her favorite food, about her family, when acting bug bit her and many more things.
You have mesmerized audiences as Hayathi in Heart Attack. Now what surprise is in stock for movie buffs in S/O Satyamurthy ?
Adah Sharma: I am very much thankful for the Telugu audiences for accepting me as Hayathi in my debut film and the media support given to me. I can't reveal anything about S/O Satyamurthy because Trivikram Sir wanted everything to be a surprise till the release date, so u have to wait for two more days, all I can say is it's a bubbly character.
Being a professional kathak dancers, how is it matching steps with Allu Arjun?
Adah Sharma:Allu Arjun is a very brilliant dancer and I can't compare me with him. He still rehearsal like a newcomer and puts efforts to get a small dance step perfectly. Being a superstar he doesn't need to do these things, I am hugely inspired from his hard working nature.
What did u learn from S/O Satyamurthy movie?
Adah Sharma: Every film teaches new different things to actors. Especially in S/O Satyamurthy I have learnt comedy and comic timing to match with the rest of the cast. Trivikram sir made by character cute and funny in the movie adding lot of humor to the role.
How is it working with director Trivikram? Adah Sharma: Trivikram sir is fantastic and extremely intelligent and he got clean sense of what actually he wants from his actors. His intelligences shines in every scene whether it’s a comic scene, emotional scene or just a dialogue, each character has some walk in the film which will be very interesting for the audiences. How was it sharing screen space with senior heroines like Samantha and Nithya Menon?
Adah Sharma: During Heart Attack time when media asked me who are my favorite actress in Telugu then my instant answer was Samantha and Nithya Menon. I don’t have any scenes with Nithay Menom but I love her work and I have few scenes with Samantha in the film. It was a good working experience with Samantha, I have seen her onscreen till then but now I got to see her live, interact with her and I have learnt many things from her.
When did the acting bug bit you? Adah Sharma: At 8th standard I wanted to study architecture, I love animals but I am afraid of blood so will faint for sure which was ruled out then I wanted to join in circus. Around 9th standard I strongly decided to get into movie, after 10th I did not go to college and started going to movie auditions. It's hard to get roles with non-filmy background. I had faced many rejections and it made me stronger then I got casted in 1920 movie that introduced me as an actor.
How is adha in real life? Adah Sharma: It's hard to describe myself in one word. I like to watch lot of tv, I don't miss any film that releases and I love to play piano. Dance is always part of my life and a very normal girl. About Ur family? Adah Sharma: I am only child to my parents. I stay with my family in Mumbai, recently my father passed away. My dad is a Captain in Navy, my mom is a dancer and now I live with her. Any childhood crushes Adah Sharma: Seriously my biggest childhood crush is Leonardo Dicaprio from Titanic. I got photos of Leonardo Dicaprio and pasted them on my bedroom walls. Currently the only love life I have is in movie and I will enjoy the on-screen life for some time now till I get a better person for off-screen.
Any special requirements for your life partner. Adah Sharma: There are only three basic requirements. 1. He should be an animal lover. 2. He must like movies, both Telugu and Hindi too. 3. He should be a nice person from heart.
Ur favorite food Adah Sharma: I love south Indian food. My all-time favorite is sambar rice and rasam rice. My mom makes these two things on every alternate days for me. Last time Heart Attack and Hasee Toh Phasee released at same time and now it repeated for S/O Satyamurthy and ur kannada movie Rana Vikrama. What's your feeling?
Adah Sharma : I am very much excited about the release of two films in same month. Last time Heart Attack was my Telugu debut and now Rana Vikrama is my Kannada debut movie. I hope all the love which I got for Heart Attack gets repeated for SOS and Kannada audiences like my hard work in Rana Vikrama. How is it working with Power Star?
Adah Sharma: Puneeth Rajkumar ( Kannada Power Star ) is the most humble person I have ever seen. He never complains about anything and always have a smile on his face. He treats everyone equally and talks with everyone despite of being a super star and I never heard him say no to anyone.
Ur belly dance at SIIMA 2014 Awards Function was appreciated by many, when we can expect same magic on silver screen.
Adah Sharma: U can see little dancing side of me in SOS but it's not belly dancing. I am waiting for filmmakers to approach me with dance role, if I am playing a dancer then it has to be very big because dancing is my is my life and I am doing graduation in dance. I am learning belly dancing from YouTube videos and bettering my skills through google. Ur association with PETA and its campaigning in south.
Adah Sharma: I am very glad to be associated with PETA. Being from a Kerala Iyer Brahmin family I am a pure vegetation from birth, it's a very healthy way of life. We did mermaid campaigning in Hyderabad to spread the vegetarian word and the campaign is very close to my heart.
As promised at Heart Attack audio you have spoken in Telugu at SOS music launch. Can we expect Ur own voice budded in Telugu movies soon?
Adah Sharma: Yes very soon. Now I have got the accent right, u will hear my own voice in a women centric film which is being produced under PVP Cinema banner. It’' a bilingual movie and the hardest role than I have portrayed in 1920 movie.
What's Ur upcoming projects in Telugu and Hindi? Adah Sharma: Currently I am working in Garam opposite Aadhi which is near completion. I have finished half of my part in Subramanyam for sale with Sai Dharam Tej and I play a village girl role in the movie. I have two more films in Telugu, two Hindi projects and one Tamil movie which will start this year.

Avunu was one of the biggest hits in Ravi Babu’s career. He is back with its second part in Avunu 2. Starring Poorna and Harshvardhan Rane, this film has hit the screens today. Let’s see how it is.
Story:-
As shown in the first part, Mohini(Poorna) and Harsha(Harshvardhan Rane) some how escape the evil spirit of Captain Raju(Ravi Babu) and shift to posh flat in the city.
One fine day, they travel to Kasi and meet a sadhu who gives Mohini a sacred thread to stay safe from the evil spirit. The couple return home and start living happily. Twist in the tale arises when Captain Raju’s spirit returns to haunt Mohini yet again.
How will Mohini escape from this evil spirit ? Will the sacred thread help Mohini in saving her life ? To know answers to these questions, you need to watch the film on the big screen.
Plus Points:-
Major credit should go to Ravi Babu for executing the film in quite a decent manner. The production values are wonderful and showcase the film in a superb light. Once again, Poorna is the center of attraction of the second part as well. She portrays her role quite convincingly and brings in a lot of depth to the film.
The location chosen and the technology used in the film is very good. Graphics showcased are quite natural and have been designed convincingly. Harshvardhan Rane has improved by leaps and bounds with his acting skills. The way he has gone about his role is impressive. He is particularly good in one of the scenes where he is tied up to a chair.
Second half of the film is quite racy as the intensity in the proceedings is raised with these gripping scenes. Yet another plus point of the film is the run time. As the film is only 1 hour 40 minutes, things move at a brisk pace.
Minus Points:-
Major drawback of the film is the lack of spooky moments. All those who have seen the trailers and go in thinking it is a horror film will be mistaken completely. Avunu 2 is a suspense thriller which is predictable most of the times.
First half of the film is routine and has the same concept which Avunu had. Those who have seen the first part might get bored during this time. Climax of the film is quite simple and hurried up a bit. Ravi Varma’s character goes over board during the first half.
Technical Aspects:-
As said earlier, production values of the film are brilliant. The house chosen and the way Ravi Babu uses its every nook and corner is very good. Background score is the main ingredient for any horror flick, but sadly, it is the biggest drawback of Avunu 2. The score composed gets irritating after a point and haunts you till the end.
Coming to Ravi Babu, he does not experiment much and showcases decent thrills in the film. The way he has paced the entire second half will be liked by one and all. Editing is sleek and suits perfectly for films in these genre.
Verdict:-
On the whole, Avunu 2 has some well executed engaging moments. The premise chosen, second half and decent performances from the lead cast are basic assets. All those who have seen Avunu might have their restrictions about the first half. But for those who haven’t seen it, can easily give this film a shot which is worth their precious time.
