Nani: Telugu movie industry lacks unity on several issues

Hyderabad, Dec 27 (IANS) Actor Nani, who has been vocal about various issues faced by the Telugu movie industry, admits that there is no unity in Tollywood. ## During the release of his movie 'Shyam Singha Roy', the 'Eega' hero had actively participated in multiple promotional activities. ## In one of his interviews, the actor talks about the ticket pricing issues in Andhra Pradesh. ## "We have problems here. And it would have been nice if everyone would have come out to defend each other," Nani said. ## "We lack unity. I wish this statement wasn't true. But we missed sorting the problems together." ## Nani also mentioned that the industry must have stood stronger when the movie 'Vakeel Saab' was released itself. ## The Andhra Pradesh government had slashed movie ticket prices and it was seen as retaliation for leading star Pawan Kalyan's political ambitions, which was evident from the release of 'Vakeel Saab'. ## Now that the state government has been ordering theatre raids, Nani is the only Telugu actor who has spoken on these issues apart from a few who support him. ## Nani was also targeted by the ruling YSRCP leaders, surrounding his comments recently. "I am not even aware of his existence. Who is Nani? ", one of the ruling party leaders asked in a recent press event. ## Actor Siddarth is also one of the actors who have been expressing their opinions on the issue. ##

Ram Charan and I are proud to bring back stardom on screen: Jr NTR on 'RRR'

Hyderabad, Dec 27 (IANS) Telugu star Jr NTR is geared up for the release of director S.S. Rajamouli's epic 'RRR', co-starring Ram Charan, and he shares his thoughts on the film. ## The 'Aravinda Sametha Veera Raghava' actor, who has been quite busy promoting 'RRR' had an exclusive chat with IANS. ## Jr NTR explains how Rajamouli has evolved as a filmmaker. ## Having worked with Rajamouli when he was just getting started, Jr NTR believes that Rajamouli has only grown hungrier to make more movies of great significance. ## "The success quotient of S.S. Rajamouli has become exponentially bigger. His vision has become a macro-scale. But, as a person, he is still the same 'Jakkanna' to me," Jr NTR said. ## Ram Charan's plays Alluri Seetharama Raju, which has a few cinematic references. But, for Komaram Bheem played by Jr NTR, there is no single reference about the character. ## When quizzed about the same, Jr NTR said, "It is true that Komaram Bheem has no cinematic references." ## "We all grew up hearing the stories about these heroes. We all would have imagined a figure and its characteristics, right? For a Rajamouli movie, you have to undo almost every detail you ever have imagined or assumed." ## He further explained, "So, even though there is a reference, we have to undo those details." ## "So, it was totally Rajamouli's imagination that you will see on the screen. Only the characters are real, the story surrounding them is totally fictional. We did multiple workshops together, to get into the skin of the characters." ## Jr NTR explains that Rajamouli has imbibed realistic features of the 'Gond Veer' Komaram Bheem, while the story is completely fictional. ## On being asked about his bond with Ram Charan and their director complaining about their 'pointless brawls' on the sets of 'RRR', Jr NTR said they had a well-grounded explanation. ## "When we have such a big project we are working on, everything gets intense on the sets. As I am an intense person myself, I get deeply engrossed in the work." ## "So, it is legit that we have such fun-filled breaks," he said. ## Jr NTR further explained, "There were times where we all used to break out in laughter. As Ram Charan and I were friends from earlier times, there were no boundaries." ## "We had to take breaks because the pressure of working for a mammoth venture, needs to be in equilibrium." ## "There are a lot of inhibitions for the actors to come together to make movies. I am proud to say that Charan and I have worked together to bring back the lost culture of two big stars working together for a movie." v "The first two minutes will be Ram Charan's and NTR's individual fans watching the movie. But, the third minute, it is the movie fan, the audience, leaving behind the fandom", Jr. NTR said, when he talks about their individual fandoms. ## On January 7, 'RRR' will hit the screens. Jr NTR plays Komaram Bheem, while Ram Charan plays Alluri Seetharama Raju. ##

Work for that has already begun." ## The music director was visibly pleased with the success of 'Pushpa's songs in all the five languages that the movie released in. ## He said, "I am really happy and excited. The effort that went into all the songs has really paid off. It almost took me one month to complete each and every song in the film. I meticulously selected the singers to suit a particular language. ## "In fact, Andrea Jeremiah who sung the 'Oo Solriya' song in Tamil was busy shooting. She took permission from the shoot and sung the song. I am thankful to all the singers and lyricists who cooperated well. ## "Sid Sriram was excited to sing 'Srivalli' as he felt this was something new to him. All five songs look more authentic in their respective languages. We were clear that this is not a dubbing film, but a pan-Indian flick and we wanted the quality to be on par with it." ## To another question on how he handled success, Devi Sri Prasad said, "Whether it is success or failure, I always take it to my heart and not to the mind. We put in the same effort for all songs and some of them become hits and others do not. We will have to be prepared for both. What is important is the hard work and consistency." ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk For More Such Updates.

'Going nude was too much for Telugu audience': Sukumar on shelving raw scene in 'Pushpa'

Hyderabad, Dec 25 (IANS) The climax of 'Pushpa: The Rise' was to have originally featured actors Allu Arjun and Fahadh Fassil in the nude but the makers backed off, apprehensive of the response from the conservative Telugu audience. ## In a conversation with the media, director Sukumar let the secret slip. "The climax confrontation scene is different from the one we originally shot," Sukumar revealed. ## Disclosing the fact that both Allu Arjun and Fahadh Fassil were supposed to appear nude in the scene, Sukumar explains that only then would the scene have appealed in its rawest form. ## "Allu Arjun and Fahadh were supposed to go nude for the climax scene. But, we did not go for it because going nude is too much for the Telugu audience," the 'Nannaku Prematho' director said. ## Despite these changes, 'Pushpa: The Rise' is considered a movie close to reality, with a couple of raw scenes. ## Staying true to the subject and hero's idiosyncrasy, Sukumar had shot a scene between Rashmika and Allu Arjun which also evoked a negative reaction from the audience. ## Some of the viewers also had demanded the makers to take down that scene from the original print. ## Sukumar also revealed that the second part - 'Pushpa: The Rule' - would be more earthy and raw. ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk For More Such Updates.

'Baahubali' producer's suggestion on AP ticket pricing issue

Hyderabad, Dec 24 (IANS) What appears to be a never-ending episode between the Telugu Film Industry and the Andhra Pradesh government is the ticket pricing and movie business-related issues. ## In the wake of slashing movie tickets and the seizure of multiple theatres, Telugu star Nani had reacted that these activities are not going to help the industry or anyone who depends on the movie business. ## Quoting Nani's speech reference, 'Baahubali' producer Shobu Yarlagadda listed out a few suggestions to deal with this issue. ## In a series of tweets, Shobu said: "Maximum Retail Price (MRP) (unless it is an essential commodity) is decided by the producers/manufacturers of packaged goods not the government. Just saying! ## "If AP Government, wants to maximize tax collection from movies, it should 1. Mandate 100 per cent computerisation of ticket sales in all theatres, 2. Automatic and real-time updating of ticket sales. 3. Free and variable pricing of movie tickets (the free market will decide the right price)." ## Shobu opined that it might work both in the favour of exhibitors and the state government. ## "This will be a win-win situation, that will benefit the exhibition sector, film industry, and the Government!," added the 'Baahubali' producer. ## Among the very few people who stood against the government's decision, Shobu is one of them. ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk For More Updates.

We must keep political issues separate from movie-related issues," Nani said. Nani added: "I can't even put into words rightly. This is like laying an axe on the whole industry."## Nani has been receiving positive reactions to these statements against the acts of the AP government. ## "A relatively small star-like Nani came forward and took the risk of speaking even though his movie is releasing. He is very well aware that he is pushing himself into risk", one comment reads.## "A man with a spine. Other heroes are just donating lakhs, expecting the government to cool off. But, why don't they stand up against the government?", another person questions.## The Government has been cutting off movie ticket prices to 10, 20, 30 rupees in some areas of Andhra Pradesh. It has also released a 'Most Urgent' G.O. to carry out raids in all districts and send reports by the 29th of this month.## "While the state has been financially hit with the pandemic situation still prevailing, and the natural disasters like floods affecting the people, why is the government behind the movie industry, which can generate financial support? Just because they want revenge on Pawan Kalyan?", another comment reads. ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk For More Updates.
