      Kanguva and Matka Fall Flat: Suriya and Varun Tej's Films Struggle at the Box Office
      Kanguva and Matka Fall Flat: Suriya and Varun Tej's Films Struggle at the Box Office
      This week, only two films were released in theaters. One is 'Kanguva', starring Tamil star Suriya, and the other is 'Matka', featuring Mega hero Varun Tej. Released amidst high expectations, both films disappointed the audience and flopped at the box office in Telugu states with dismal openings. The collections were shockingly less than half of what was expected. How much did these movies collect on the first day? What were the reasons for their flop? Let’s take a look. Kanguva Collections The film 'Kanguva', directed by Shiva with Kollywood star Suriya, was compared to 'Baahubali' and promoted on a pan-India scale, raising high expectations. Released worldwide grandly on Thursday (November 14), 'Kanguva' initially received negative feedback from the premieres. Consequently, the first-day collections fell short of expectations. Trade sources reported that the film grossed Rs. 40 crores worldwide on the first day, with Rs. 12 crores from Tamil Nadu alone and Rs. 4 crores from the Hindi belt. It is noteworthy that the movie only managed to collect Rs. 6 crores in the Telugu states, where Suriya has a good market. The movie team expected over Rs. 100 crores on the first day but didn’t even make half of that, which was a significant setback. These collections were also primarily from advance bookings, and it is anticipated that the collections will drop further from today. Where did 'Kanguva' go wrong? Director Shiva crafted 'Kanguva' by connecting a centuries-old folk tale to the present era. Despite choosing a strong storyline, he completely failed to present it meaningfully. The initial 20 minutes tested the patience of the audience, and even after (Kanguva Review) the character Kanguva appeared on screen, it failed to engage. The introduction of five clans—Pranavakona, Kapala Kona, Sagar Kona, Aranyakona, and Hima Kona—created a confusing atmosphere, and no clan connected with the audience. The loud dialogues of every character only added to the viewer’s irritation. However, Suriya’s performance in the roles of Francis and Kanguva, and Bobby Deol's villainy as Rudhira brought some life to the film. Matka’s openings were even worse 'Matka', directed by Karuna Kumar with Mega Prince Varun Tej and Meenakshi Chaudhary, also opened on Thursday to negative reviews. As a result, the first-day collections were shockingly low. Trade circles announced that the film only managed to gross Rs. 1.2 crores worldwide, with barely (Matka Review) Rs. 80 lakhs to Rs. 1 crore from the two Telugu states. The occupancy on the first day was less than 20%. The trade circles were also surprised by such a low response to a film released with great expectations. Reasons for 'Matka’s' flop Director Karuna Kumar chose a very routine story for 'Matka'. 'A young man with no significant background establishes a large criminal empire' is a plot that has been seen many times before. While the story itself might have been acceptable, the conflict between the characters in the movie was completely lacking. The hero’s rise felt overly cinematic and did not seem natural. There were no real challenges faced by the hero. The efforts of the CBI to capture Vasu, who became a national threat, were not at all interesting. The strategies of the adversaries to defeat him were very weak. Apart from Varun Tej's acting, there was not a single impressive point in the movie, according to the audience who watched it.

      Ananya Nagalla is one of the few Telugu heroines in Tollywood who debuted as a lead actress with the movie 'Mallesham.' Since then, she has charmed Telugu audiences by consistently starring in a series of films, sometimes as the main heroine and sometimes in character roles. Her recent film 'Pottel' as the lead actress has garnered positive talk, and her performance was highly praised, although there has been a longstanding belief among Telugu viewers that despite her good roles, Ananya hasn't received the opportunities she deserves. Amidst this, she has landed a bumper offer, much to the delight of her fans. With the Mega Hero..! Sai Dharam Tej is currently working on his latest film 'SDT 18,' produced by K. Niranjan Reddy and Chaitanya Reddy, known for blockbuster films like 'Hanuman.' This film marks the directorial debut of Rohit KP.

More details about her role are expected to be revealed soon by the film team. An Inspiration for Newcomers! To succeed as a heroine in the industry, it's crucial to star alongside leading heroes—a fact well-known to Ananya Nagalla, perhaps more than to any other actress. She made her entry as a heroine with 'Mallesham' in 2019 and then starred in a successful science fiction movie 'Playback.' Although she played a key role in Pawan's 'Vakeel Saab,' it did not break her typecast, leading her to side characters in various films. Whenever opportunities arose, she proved herself as a heroine, recently ascending another step in her career with films like 'Tantra' and 'Pottel.' Her efforts to star in films with star heroes have finally borne fruit with 'SDT 18,' which recognized her talent and gave her a significant role. Analysts say this success will undoubtedly elevate Ananya's career to a new level, inspiring the current generation of Telugu girls. Set in the Backdrop of 1947-67...

Directed by Rohit KP, this periodic action drama unfolds in the backdrop of 1947-67 and is set in the Rayalaseema region. Recent making videos released show extensive sets built for the film, highlighting the rustic village settings of the olden days. A glimpse of heroine Aishwarya Lekshmi was also shown in one of the shots. Tej will be seen in a powerful, mass-driven role and has undergone a major makeover for this. The makers are working to release the film in Telugu, Tamil, Hindi, Kannada, and Malayalam. https://twitter.com/IamSaiDharamTej/status/1846068731665174954 Rising Like a Wave... Having made his entry into the industry as a mega nephew, Sai Dharam Tej has proven his mettle and emerged as a successful actor among the mega heroes. At the height of his career, he unexpectedly met with an accident, plunging his family and fans into concern. He later recovered from a coma, a life-threatening situation, and has since managed to stabilize both his personal and professional life. Following the accident, he achieved significant victories with films like 'Virupaksha' and 'Bro' and officially added his mother's name, changing from Sai Dharam Tej to Sai Durga Tej.

What do you say about this? Have you ever faced it?" Ananya responded, "How can you say for sure that they ask for commitment? There’s nothing like that." The reporter continued, "But isn’t the commitment included in the signed agreement? That's what your industry friends told me." Ananya replied, "That’s 100% wrong. I have never faced such a thing. It doesn’t exist." https://twitter.com/tfpcin/status/1847262295266865248 You See Only the Negative: Ananya Ananya remarked that just like in life, there are both negative and positive aspects in the industry.

      Sandeep Reddy Vanga Backs Ananya After Reporter's Shocking Question
      Sandeep Reddy Vanga Backs Ananya After Reporter's Shocking Question
      Telugu actress Ananya Nagalla stars in the latest movie "Pottel," set to release across the two Telugu states on October 25th. Amidst ongoing promotions, Ananya has been quite busy. Recently, after the trailer launch, a press meet was held where Ananya had a bitter experience. A question raised by a journalist about commitments in the industry turned into a hot topic both in Tollywood and on social media. Ananya addressed this issue again and thanked pan-India director Sandeep Reddy Vanga for standing by their team. Praises for Sandeep by Ananya The movie "Pottel," which stars Yuvachandra Krishna and Ananya Nagalla and is directed by Sahith Mothkuri, is set to hit the screens in three days. A pre-release event was recently held by the makers, where Sandeep Reddy Vanga, known for directing films like "Arjun Reddy," "Kabir Singh," and "Animal," attended as the chief guest. Ananya spoke at the event, expressing gratitude for his presence at the promotions of "Pottel," not once but twice, and praised him for his support in elevating a small film to a bigger stage. https://twitter.com/i/status/1848603026728358266 After "Rangasthalam," "Pottel" Is It: Sandeep Reddy Director Sandeep Reddy Vanga, as the chief guest, spoke about the film. He mentioned that director Sahith one day told him about the small story he was filming. Upon hearing it, Sandeep felt it wasn't just a small story but a significant one. He had already seen the movie and liked it a lot, saying it was more than he had imagined and that the audience would definitely enjoy it. He praised it as the first full-scale village backdrop film he had seen since "Rangasthalam" and urged everyone to support small films. https://twitter.com/i/status/1848595831508652364 Decency in Questions: Ananya At the "Pottel" pre-release event, Ananya Nagalla made some more intriguing comments. She revisited the journalist's question about commitment, mocking its appropriateness. "After going home, I thought about how one could ask such a direct question on a sensitive topic. It made me realize, if one had decency, such questions wouldn't be asked. My dream has always been to earn recognition as an actress, which I have been fighting for at home for five years. After seeing 'Pottel,' everyone at my home will feel proud. The question on commitment spoiled the joy. Now everyone will think I succeeded because I committed, but it’s not true. Just because actresses wear makeup and smile doesn't mean they don't have a heart or a family. Please respect us," Ananya requested. What Really Happened? The trailer launch event for the movie "Pottel" recently took place in Hyderabad, with prominent actress Samyuktha Menon releasing the trailer. During the subsequent press meet, a female reporter questioned Ananya Nagalla about the casting couch, asking, "Before giving a movie chance to an actress or artist, do you ask for commitments? Have you ever faced this?" Ananya responded, "How can you be so sure that commitments are asked? There's nothing like that." The reporter continued, "But your industry friends said commitments are part of the signing agreements." Ananya clarified, "That's 100% wrong. I have never faced such a situation. It doesn't exist." https://twitter.com/tfpcin/status/1847262295266865248 Producer of "Mallesham" Fires at Reporter Netizens criticized the manner in which the female reporter questioned Ananya Nagalla, and as the video went viral, "Mallesham" producer Venkat Siddareddy also responded. He posted a lengthy post on X, criticizing the reporter's inappropriate question during a movie promotion.

      Pottel Movie Review: 'Rangasthalam' Level Telugu Film? Sandeep Reddy Vanga's BOLD Comparison, Ananya's De-glam Avatar Shocks, But Second Half DISAPPOINTS!
      Cast: Yuva Chandra Krishna, Ananya Nagalla, Ajay, Priyanka Sharma, Tanasvi Choudary, Noel Sean, Chatrapathi Shekhar, Srikanth Iyengar, Jeevan, Riyaz, Vikram, and others. Written and Directed by: Sahith Mothkuri Music by: Shekhar Chandra Cinematography by: Monish Bhupathi Raju Edited by: Karthika Srinivas Producers: Nishank Reddy Kudithi, Suresh Kumar Sadige Production Companies: Nisa Entertainments, Pragnya Sannidhi Creations Release Date: 25-10-2024 In the latest film Pottel, Ananya Nagalla and Yuva Chandra pair up in a film directed by Sahith Mothkuri, who made his directorial debut with the film Savari. Pottel has garnered unprecedented publicity for a small-scale cinema. Pan-India director Sandeep Reddy Vanga praised this film by comparing it with Ram Charan's 'Rangasthalam.' The screenwriter Trivikram also raised expectations by lauding the film. Released on Friday (October 25), did this film meet expectations? Did it bring success to Ananya? Let's see in this review. Plot The story unfolds in Gurramgadda village, located at the borders of Maharashtra and Telangana. The villagers conduct a festival for the village deity Balamma once in every cycle and offer sacrifices. It is believed that during this time, the deity possesses Patel (Ajay), the village head, who then prevents the villagers from progressing, particularly in education. On the other side, Pedda Gangadhari (Yuva Chandra) serves as the keeper of the sacrificial animals and secretly educates his daughter. When Patel finds out, he makes the sacrificial animal disappear. He threatens to sacrifice Gangadhari's daughter if the animal isn't found by the festival. What does Gangadhari do to save his daughter? Is he able to bring back the animal? What role does Bujjamma (Ananya Nagalla) play in this story? Performances Ajay, as Patel, delivers a powerhouse performance, surpassing even his impactful role in 'Vikramarkudu.' Newcomer Yuva Chandra excels as Gangadhari, a man desperate to educate his child and improve his village. Despite being his debut, he perfectly fits into his role. Telugu actress Ananya Nagalla gets a substantial role and shines as Bujjamma. Even in a deglamorized role, she delivers an exceptional performance. Singer Noel also got a significant role and did justice to it. Srikanth Iyengar and Chatrapathi Shekhar lived up to their roles, along with other supporting cast members who performed competently within their limits. Direction Director Sahith Mothkuri captures the essence of a rural 1980s setting right from the beginning, immersing the audience into that era within the first 20 minutes. He vividly portrays how the oppressed and weak were subdued during the Patel era, focusing on the prejudices rooted in caste and pride. The introduction of characters, the love story between the hero and heroine, and other scenes are well-handled in the first half. However, the second half seems a bit faltering. The director appears to rely too heavily on the villain's oppression to drive emotional engagement, resulting in scenes that sometimes lack logical continuity. Nevertheless, the director succeeds in connecting the audience with the film's underlying message. Technically On the technical front, the music and cinematography departments have performed well. The songs and background score positively impact the film. However, editing flaws are noticeable, particularly in the second half where scenes drag. The art department excels, recreating the atmosphere of the 1980s with their workmanship. Plus Points - Story - Lead performances - Music Minus Points - Lack of engaging narrative - Dragging scenes Rating by Telugu.yousay.tv: 3/5

      Shocking! Small Film 'Pottel' Beats Jr NTR's 400-Crore 'Devara' in Fan Reviews
      Shocking! Small Film 'Pottel' Beats Jr NTR's 400-Crore 'Devara' in Fan Reviews
      Ananya Nagalla and Yuva Chandra starred in the latest film "Pottel," directed by Saahith Mothkuri, who was introduced as a director with the movie "Savaari." Recently, "Pottel" has garnered a level of publicity that small films rarely achieve. Released last Friday (October 25), the film has been receiving positive responses from audiences. Viewers commented that the film reflects very natural and real-life scenarios from the past. In this context, a viewer’s comment comparing "Devara" to "Pottel" has gone viral on the internet. 'Much better than Devara' The film "Devara," directed by Koratala Shiva starring Jr. NTR, was recently released and created a tsunami of collections, grossing over Rs. 400 crores at the box office. Top-notch music director Anirudh worked on this film. A viewer’s comment comparing "Pottel" to "Devara" has been trending online. A YouTuber who went to the theater showing "Pottel" tried to gather audience opinions. In the process, he stopped the audience coming out of the theater and asked how the movie was. The viewer expressed in the video that he liked "Pottel" much better than "Devara." Are smaller films better than big films? The YouTuber asked, to which he reiterated the viewer’s opinion that "Pottel" is better than "Devara." This video is currently going viral. https://twitter.com/i/status/1849871631818293722 Content is king Regardless of whether it’s a big or small film, Telugu audiences appreciate good content, which is exactly what is happening with "Pottel." This low-budget film with a solid story is captivating the audience. Recent films like "Aay," "Committee Kurrollu," and "Mathu Vadalara 2" also achieved success in the same way, despite not having big stars or big budgets. However, the Telugu audience embraced even "Devara." Yet, it is intriguing that the viewer expressed a preference for "Pottel" over "Devara." What is "Pottel" about? Director Saahith Mothkuri has depicted the rural backdrop of the 1980s in "Pottel," transporting the audience back in time right from the beginning. In the first 20 minutes, he immerses the audience in village life, showing how the lower and vulnerable classes were oppressed and subjected to severe hardship. The film’s approach to caste, religion, and egotistical distinctions between big and small has become a major attraction. The introduction of characters, the love story between the hero and heroine, and other scenes beautifully set up the first half. The second part seems a bit faltering where the director over-emphasized the villain harming the main characters to evoke emotions, leading to scenes that stray from logic. However, the director succeeded in connecting the audience with the underlying message of the story. Plot  The story unfolds in Gurramgadda village, located at the borders of Maharashtra and Telangana.

      ‘Kesava Chandra Ramavat (KCR)’ Review: Rocking Rakesh Shines in a Heartfelt Tribute with an Emotional Twist
      ‘Kesava Chandra Ramavat (KCR)’ Review: Rocking Rakesh Shines in a Heartfelt Tribute with an Emotional Twist
      Cast: Rocking Rakesh, Ananya Krishnan, Lohith, Mime Madhu, Tanikella Bharani, Tagubothu Ramesh, Dhanraj, Jordar Sujatha, and othersDirector: Anji GarudavegaMusic: Charan ArjunEditor: Chintala MadhuProducer: Rocking RakeshProduction House: Green Tree ProductionsRelease Date: November 22, 2024 Comedian Rocking Rakesh stars in Kesava Chandra Ramavat (shortened as KCR), a film with an intriguing premise tied to the former Telangana Chief Minister, KCR. With Rakesh portraying a die-hard fan of KCR, the movie garnered significant hype. Directed by Anji Garudavega, the film also stars Ananya Krishnan, Tanikella Bharani, Dhanraj, and others. Did Rakesh impress in his lead role and justify the hype? Let’s find out in this review. The Plot Kesava Chandra Ramavat, alias KCR (Rocking Rakesh), hails from Rangabai Tanda in Warangal district and has been a devoted fan of K. Chandrashekar Rao (KCR) since childhood. Inspired by KCR’s speeches during the Telangana movement, Kesava grew up idolizing him. His cousin, Manju (Ananya Krishnan), is in love with him, but Kesava dreams of marrying a wealthy city girl, believing it would secure his future. Eventually, he gets engaged to the daughter of a rich man and vows to marry her in the presence of KCR. Determined to fulfill his promise, Kesava travels to Hyderabad to convince KCR to attend his wedding. What challenges does he face in the city? How does the ring road project create problems for his village? Does Kesava succeed in bringing KCR to his wedding? The answers form the crux of the story. Performances Rocking Rakesh delivers an earnest performance as a passionate KCR fan, showcasing his natural acting skills. His portrayal of a young man fighting for his village and dreams is convincing. Ananya Krishnan, playing Manju, does a decent job, though her role doesn’t offer much scope for acting. Lohith as Kesava’s father and Mime Madhu as his uncle stand out with their performances. Tagubothu Ramesh and Jordar Sujatha provide comic relief in their brief appearances. Tanikella Bharani, Dhanraj, and others perform adequately within their limited roles. Direction Director Anji Garudavega narrates the story of a simple Lambada youth’s journey from his village to the city, driven by his admiration for KCR. The film captures the emotional journey of Kesava, highlighting his struggles and dreams. The first half introduces Kesava, his village life, and his inspiration drawn from KCR’s speeches. The promise to bring KCR to his wedding adds intrigue to the second half. The challenges Kesava faces in Hyderabad and the emotional climax involving the ring road issue are handled well. However, the film’s overt focus on glorifying a political figure might limit its appeal. While it serves as a celebration for KCR fans and BRS supporters, its reception among general audiences remains uncertain. Technical Aspects Technically, the film is well-crafted. Director Anji Garudavega also impresses as a cinematographer. Charan Arjun’s songs and background score elevate the emotional sequences. The production values are commendable, reflecting a well-invested effort.

Among them is Pushpa (Anjali), who lives under his control as his concubine. Darshi (Sri Tej), an employee of Shivayya, falls in love with Pushpa and they plan to marry. However, Shivayya, feigning agreement, strategically sabotages their plans and instead marries Darshi to his niece, Lakshmi (Ananya Nagalla). Amidst this chaos, Darshi finds himself wrongly embroiled in a legal case. The unfolding drama explores who framed Darshi, his confrontation with Shivayya, the repercussions he faces, and how Pushpa, with the aid of Lakshmi, seeks revenge against Shivayya. The series delves into these compelling dynamics. Performances Anjali is captivating in the role of a prostitute. With her dialogues and mannerisms, she mesmerized the audience. She beautifully portrays the variations of a woman forced into a life she dislikes and struggling for her lover's affection. Anjali also shines in action sequences, particularly impressing in the climax. Sri Tej as Darshi delivers a compelling performance, embodying a young man from the lower strata who cannot tolerate injustice. Ananya Nagalla as Lakshmi offers a natural performance, while Ravindra Vijay as the villainous Shivayya delivers a solid performance, appearing powerful through his dialogues and looks. The rest of the cast adequately fulfill their roles. Direction Director Mukesh Prajapati crafts this series as a period revenge action drama. He brings to life the struggle of a prostitute fighting against the injustices done to her lover. The series vividly portrays how caste discriminations dominated rural areas in the past, showing how the upper classes oppressed the lower castes and particularly women. The series touches on delicate issues like caste and untouchability, giving importance to drama and emotions. However, despite a promising concept, the presentation feels routine and the series progresses flatly without significant twists. While the backdrop of prostitution offers a fresh element, the rest of the storyline recalls plots from older films. Some disturbing scenes aside, 'Bahishkarana' consistently entertains. Technically On the technical front, cinematographer Prasanna S. Kumar does an excellent job. His camera work effectively transports the audience back to the 1990s. Siddharth Sadashivuni's background score is a significant plus, elevating the action sequences to a higher level. The production values are also notably high. Plus Points - Anjali's performance - Periodic revenge drama - Background music Minus Points - Lack of twists - Some boring scenes Telugu.yousay.tv Rating: 3/5

      35 Chinna Katha Kaadu Review: A Heartfelt Tale of Family, Education, and Triumph with Stellar Performances
      35 Chinna Katha Kaadu Review: A Heartfelt Tale of Family, Education, and Triumph with Stellar Performances
      Cast: Nivetha Thomas, Priyadarshi, Vishwadev R, Gauthami, Bhagyaraj, Krishna Teja, Abhay, Ananya, and others Screenplay and Direction: Nandakishore Imani Music: Vivek Sagar Cinematography: Niketh Bommireddy Editing: T.C. Prasanna Presented by: Rana Daggubati Producers: Srujan, Siddharth Release Date: 09-06-2024 Starring Nivetha Thomas, Vishwadev R, and Priyadarshi in lead roles, the film '35 Chinna Katha Kaadu' is directed by Nandakishore Imani. The movie, produced by prominent actor Rana Daggubati, features Nivetha Thomas in a mother's role for the first time. The trailer, already released, has heightened expectations. The movie is set to release on September 6 in Telugu, Tamil, and Malayalam, but a special premiere was held for the press one day earlier. How did the film turn out? Did Nivetha’s new venture succeed? Let's examine in this review. Plot Prasad (Vishwadev) and Saraswati (Nivetha Thomas) are a middle-class couple. For Saraswati, her husband and two sons, Arun and Varun, are her world. Arun, the elder son, studies in the sixth grade and struggles with math. His logical questions often leave teachers without answers. As a result, the math teacher Chanakya (Priyadarshi) challenges him by setting the bar at achieving at least 35 marks in math to stay in school, labeling him "Zero" for his continuous poor performance. This forces Arun to sit in his younger brother’s class. How does Arun handle this situation? How does he become a hero in his class? What does his mother Saraswati, who failed tenth grade, do to help her son understand math? Did Arun manage to score the necessary 35 marks? That forms the rest of the story. Performances Nivetha Thomas excels as Saraswati, embodying the role of a mother of two, a wife, and an educator with finesse. Her expressions and emotional depth stand out. Priyadarshi, as the math teacher Chanakya, delivers a memorable performance, portraying a strict yet caring teacher. The dynamic between Nivetha and Chanakya is one of the pillars of this film. Vishwadev does well as the husband. The two children playing Arun and Varun captivate with their performances. Bhagyaraj, Krishna Teja, and others contribute significantly in other key roles. Direction Director Nandakishore Imani crafted '35 Chinna Katha Kaadu' with a message-oriented approach, highlighting flaws in the educational system. He also explores how teachers should interact with students and the dynamics between spouses. The first half is filled with humor and family emotions, which are engaging. The chemistry between Nivetha Thomas and Vishwadev, portraying middle-class life, is well depicted. The school environment and the challenges faced by students are convincingly shown. Emotional scenes in the family in the second half are touching. However, the film’s pace can be slow at times, and the lack of commercial elements and some dialogues might not hit the mark with all viewers. Technically In the technical department, the music and cinematography are well-executed. Vivek Sagar’s background score is a significant plus, enhancing the emotional scenes. The editing is decent, though a tighter cut in some dragging scenes would have been beneficial. The production values are high, reflecting a no-compromise approach in terms of quality. Plus Points - Engaging narrative - Performances by Nivetha and Priyadarshi - Emotional scenes Minus Points - Slow narration - Lack of high points in the story Telugu.yousay.tv Rating : 3/5

      Darling Movie Review:A Whirlwind of Romance and Laughter with a Twist of Complexity
      Darling Movie Review:A Whirlwind of Romance and Laughter with a Twist of Complexity
      Cast: Priyadarshi, Nabha Natesh, Brahmanandam, Vishnu, Krishna Teja, Ananya Nagalla, Muralidhar Goud, among others. Written and Directed by: Aswin Ram Music by: Vivek Sagar Cinematography: Naresh Ramadurai Dialogues by: Hemanth Producers: K. Niranjan Reddy, Chaitanya Reddy Release Date: July 19, 2024 The unique romantic comedy entertainer 'Darling' starring Priyadarshi and Nabha Natesh, and directed by Aswin Ram, has already captivated audiences with its promotional material. Produced under the banner of PrimeShow Entertainment by K. Niranjan Reddy and Mrs. Chaitanya Reddy, the film released worldwide on July 19th.. Plot Since childhood, Raghav (Priyadarsi) has dreamed of marriage and a honeymoon. Working as an agent in a travel agency, he finally seems poised to realize this dream when he becomes engaged to Nandini (Ananya Nagalla), a psychologist chosen by his father (Muralidhar Goud). However, his plans unravel when Nandini leaves him at the altar for another man. Heartbroken and on the brink of despair, Raghav's life takes an unexpected turn when he meets Anandi (Nabha Natesh). The two quickly fall in love and marry, but on their wedding night, Raghav discovers that Anandi has multiple personality disorder, hosting five distinct personalities: Aadi, Maya, Jhansi, Papa, and Srisri. The unfolding challenges Raghav faces with Anandi’s complex condition promise a story filled with intrigue and emotion. To uncover the full story, one must head to the theaters. Performance Priyadarsi, once again, charms as Raghav, fitting perfectly into his role with his distinctive comedic timing, delighting the audience. Nabha Natesh excels in a challenging role with various facets, carrying the film on her shoulders with a career-best performance. She brilliantly displays the variations of her split personalities. The funny scenes between Nabha Natesh and Priyadarsi are engaging, though the dubbing for Nabha Natesh's role could have been better. Supporting actors like Ananya Nagalla and Muralidhar Goud play their parts within limits. Guest appearances by Suhas, Brahmanandam, and Niharika Konidela also shine. Direction Director Aswin Ram attempts to present the complex concept of multiple personality disorder in a humorous light. The first half is swiftly paced with sequences of wedding preparations, a halted marriage, a suicide attempt, and the quick marriage to Anandi all unfolding in an entertaining manner. While the first half thrills and amuses the audience, the story seems to dull down in the second half. The backstory of the heroine and the repetitive narrative might bore the audience. The climax is particularly confusing. Despite the innovation, director Aswin Ram struggles to keep the film engaging throughout. Technically On the technical front, the cinematography is a major plus for the film, providing fresh visuals. Vivek Sagar’s music, however, does not make a significant impact. The editing could have been tighter. The production values are high, with no compromises on the budget. Plus Points - Performances by Priyadarsi and Nabha Natesh - Comedy - Cinematography Minus Points - Second half - Screenplay - Music Telugu.yousay.tv Rating: 2.5/5

      'Arthamainda Arun Kumar Season 2' Review: Tejaswi Madivada Steals the Show in This Steamy Corporate Romance
      'Arthamainda Arun Kumar Season 2' Review: Tejaswi Madivada Steals the Show in This Steamy Corporate Romance
      "Arthamaina Arun Kumar" Season 2 was released on October 31. Following the warm reception of the first season last year, the second season was eagerly anticipated. Directed by Aditya KV, the series stars Sidhu Pavan in the lead role, with Tejaswi Madivada, Ananya Sharma, and Rashi Singh playing key roles. The trailer released earlier heightened expectations. In the first season, a young man from Amalapuram moves to Hyderabad and humorously navigates challenges in a corporate office. This season interestingly portrays his rise in his professional life and how he faced various challenges. Let's see if this season meets viewers' expectations in this review. Plot: Starting a new job in Hyderabad, Arun Kumar quickly climbs up to Assistant Manager, facing challenges with his female boss. At this juncture, he is assigned a critical project. Tejaswi’s character schemes to sabotage his success. The story unfolds how Arun faces these challenges and whether he overcomes these obstacles. Series Highlights: The series consists of 5 episodes, each ranging from 25-30 minutes, totaling around 2 hours and 15 minutes of runtime. It's quite easy to watch as the story connects smoothly without boring the viewer. Particularly, the fourth episode proceeds dramatically and might feel a bit overstretched, interrupting the flow of the main story. However, the fifth episode captivates with suspense. The inclusion of adult content makes it slightly uncomfortable to watch with family, but it’s enjoyable for couples. Cast: Tejaswi Madivada plays a notable role in this series. Her bikini look in the trailer has attracted everyone with her glamorous portrayal. Although Tejaswi has not played such roles before, this time she appears fresh in her romantic character. Sidhu Pavan, as Arun Kumar, impresses with his performance, especially in scenes with Tejaswi. Ananya Sharma effectively portrays her character, aligning well with her acting scope, and impresses as Arun Kumar’s ex-girlfriend. Direction: Director Aditya KV skillfully continues the story of Arun from an amateur to a professional overcoming challenges in Hyderabad's corporate world in the first season. In the second season, he interestingly shows how Arun advances in his job and faces new challenges. However, the fourth episode could feel a bit draggy due to an excess of dialogue over action. Technical Aspects: Technically, the series is quite sophisticated. Every scene has a rich look, and the background music provided by Ajay Arasada enhances the scenes further. The cinematography is also notably well executed. Conclusion: For those looking for a good romantic entertainer over the weekend, "Arthamaina Arun Kumar" is the right choice. It promises complete entertainment. Rating: 3/5

This year, Sharadiya Navratri starts on October 3 and ends on October 12 with Dussehra. Sharadiya Navratri is a period of spiritual reflection, fasting, and prayer. During these nine nights, Hindus believe that Goddess Durga reaches the pinnacle of her divine energies. Devotees worship her to seek her blessings, venerating her nine forms which represent her power and compassion. A unique aspect of the Sharadiya Navratri celebrations is that each day is associated with a specific color of sari that reflects the attributes of the deity. Devotees dress in clothes or accessories of these colors to remember and receive the blessings of the goddess.

      This third week of September, only one Telugu film is set to make noise at the box office as the next week sees the release of 'Devara.'

      One Hero Two Heroines: Old Trend in Tollywood is coming Back?
      One Hero Two Heroines: Old Trend in Tollywood is coming Back?
      The Telugu film industry consistently leads in setting new trends. A resurgent trend in Tollywood features films with one hero and two heroines. While this concept is not new, as many Telugu films have previously followed this pattern, its popularity waned over time. However, after a significant hiatus, this trend is making a comeback, with several upcoming movies adopting this format. What are these films, and who are the heroines involved? We will delve into these details in this special report. Gayathri Bharadwaj - Prisha Rajesh Singh Allu Sirish stars in the upcoming film 'Buddy,' directed by Sham Anton. Scheduled for release on August 2, the film features two heroines: Gayathri Bharadwaj and Prisha Rajesh Singh. Both actresses have caught the audience's attention in the promotional materials for 'Buddy.' The film is produced under the banner of Studio Green Films by KE Gnanavel Raja and Adhana Gnanavel Raja. Malvika Malhotra - Mannara Chopra Raj Tarun stars in the latest film 'Thiragabadara Saami,' directed by A.S. Ravi Kumar. In this film, two heroines share the screen: main heroine Malvi Malhotra and Mannara Chopra, who appears in a special song. Meanwhile, Raj Tarun and Malvi Malhotra have been in the news recently. Raj Tarun's girlfriend, Lavanya, has filed a complaint alleging that he deceived her and has been romantically involved with Malvi Malhotra. Amid these controversies, there is heightened interest in 'Thiragabadara Saami.' Thanvi Akanksha - Seerat Kapoor The latest film 'Usha Parinayam,' directed by veteran director Vijay Bhaskar and starring his son Sree Kamal, is set to hit theaters on August 2. The film features two heroines: newcomer Thanvi Akanksha and established actress Seerat Kapoor, who will appear in a special song. Thanvi Akanksha makes her film debut, while Seerat Kapoor has been known for her roles in films like 'Run Raja Run,' 'Tiger,' 'Columbus,' 'Okka Kshanam,' and 'Touch Chesi Chudu.' Meenakshi Chaudhary - Shraddha Srinath Vishwak Sen stars in 'Mechanic Rocky,' directed by Raviteja Mullapudi and produced by Ram Talluri. The film, set against a love triangle concept, features Meenakshi Chaudhary and Shraddha Srinath as the female leads. Scheduled for release on October 31, 'Mechanic Rocky' has sparked curiosity among viewers. Meenakshi Chaudhary is already well-known from films like 'Ichata Vahanamulu Niluparadu,' 'Khiladi,' 'HIT 2: The Second Case,' and 'Guntur Kaaram.' Shraddha Srinath has also captured the Telugu audience's heart with her performances in 'Jersey' and 'Saindhav.' Tamannaah - Raashi Khanna The fourth installment in the 'Aranmanai' series, 'Baak,' was recently released in Telugu, directed by Sundar C. It stars Tamannaah Bhatia and Raashii Khanna, who together featured prominently in a song that became quite popular among fans. Despite being a horror film, 'Baak' failed to make a significant impact at the box office. Tamannaah - Keerthy Suresh Megastar Chiranjeevi's last film, 'Bhola Shankar,' also featured two heroines and was directed by Meher Ramesh. Tamannaah Bhatia and Keerthy Suresh played the lead roles, with Tamannaah as Chiru's love interest and Keerthy Suresh as his sister.
