Making A Film With SS Rajamouli Is Equal To Making 25 Films: Mahesh Babu

Hyderabad, May 10 - Superstar Mahesh Babu is thrilled to join forces with maverick director SS Rajamouli for his next after Trivikram's movie. It will be the first time when Babu will headline a film for Rajamouli, who is fresh from one of the biggest Indian blockbusters, "RRR". ## SS Rajamouli, who is known for bringing perfection to his movies, often ends up taking longer than expected time in filming. Mahesh Babu, however, is very well aware of what Rajamouli's film will take from him but also knows the fruitful outcome of that. ## "Making a film with SS Rajamouli is the equivalent of making 25 films. Even if it takes a bit longer, my fans will definitely feel happy", Babu said when reminded by a journalist about Rajamouli taking 2-3 years in film. ## Rajamouli's film with Mahesh Babu will be a Jungle adventure movie from the script being written by Rajamouli's father and screenwriter KV Vijayendra Prasad. It will go on floors in the first half of 2023 and might release in late 2024. Alia Bhatt is said to be the leading lady opposite MB in the movie. ## Meanwhile, the "Maharshi" actor is awaiting the release of "Sarkaru Vaari Paata", which is slated for May 12th release. Directed by Parasuram, SVP marks Mahesh Babu's return to the big screen after more than two years. It has Keerthy Suresh playing the female lead. ## Stay tuned...

Mahesh Babu's Shocking Remark On Getting Bollywood Films Offer

Hyderabad, May 10 - Telugu superstar Mahesh Babu will be in the action after more than two years with the upcoming action entertainer, "Sarkaru Vaari Paata", stated for 12th May release. The actor turned producer also awaiting the release of his production venture "Major" starring Adivi Sesh. ## While SVP is an outright Telugu movie, "Major" has been shot in Hindi and Telugu and it will also be released in Malayalam. For the last few years, Pan-India cinema is becoming a norm, however, Mahesh Babu is still not thinking to take his movies to Pan-India, instead, his aim has always been to make movies from the South a countrywide success.## "I always wanted to do Telugu films and wished people across India would watch it. And now when that is happening I'm very happy. I always had this strong opinion that my strength is Telugu films and the emotion I understand is the Telugu film emotion. Today the emotion is so strong, films have become so big that the lines have blurred and it's become Indian cinema", Mahesh Babu said during the trailer launch event of "Major" in Hyderabad yesterday (via DNA). ## While it is a fact that many South Indian actors are eager to make their Bollywood debut, Mahesh Babu seems to be in a different mood as he shockingly said that Bollywood can't afford him despite him getting big offers from Hindi filmmakers. ## "I may sound arrogant, I did get a lot of offers in Hindi. But I think they can't afford me. I don't want to waste my time. The stardom and love I have here in Telugu cinema, I never thought of going to another industry. I always thought I will do films here and they will become bigger, and my belief is turning into a reality now. I can't be happier", he added. ## Meanwhile, after SVP, Mahesh Babu will next begin shooting for director Trivikram Srinivas' movie. After that, he will join hands with blockbuster director SS Rajamouli for his next much-awaited movie. It will be a Pan-India movie that will also release in Hindi. ## Stay tuned...

Box Office: Megastar Chiranjeevi's 'Acharya' Shockingly Has A Disastrous Opening Weekend

Hyderabad, May 2 - Megastar Chiranjeevi and Ram Charan's action drama film "Acharya" was released amid much curiosity among the fans. The movie did take a huge opening of 51 crores worldwide gross, however, the box office result after the first day turned out to be shockingly disastrous. ## Directed by Koratala Siva, the movie got bad reviews and it is termed the weakest film in director Siva's filmography. As a result of the bad reviews and negative word of mouth, the movie plumbed massively on the second day and grossed just 10 crores with a huge drop of 76%.## There was no respite for the film on Sunday as well as it further dropped to 7.70 crores gross and registered a disappointing opening weekend with 61.10 crores gross at the domestic box office. Overseas, it scored approx. 11 crores gross, pushing worldwide cume to 72 crores. With a look at it, 72 crores worldwide gross in just 3 days sounds big numbers, but the huge drop on the second day itself and with no way going forward, is going to cause major losses to the distributors. ## The movie was valued at approx. 140 crores gross in Telugu states (Andhra Pradesh & Telangana), but it seems it will be difficult for the movie to score even 50 crores AP/TG share in its lifetime run. As of now, for the first three days, the AP/TG share of "Acharya" is 38.77 crores, and as per industry insiders, the exhibitors are expected to lose approx. 80 crores. It is heading toward one of the biggest disasters in the Telugu film industry. ## "Acharya" is produced by Konidela Production Company and Matinee Entertainment. In the movie, Chiranjeevi played the title role while Ram Charan, who is fresh from his biggest blockbuster "RRR", played the second lead as Siddha. It also stars Pooja Hegde as the female lead alongside Sonu Sood, and Jisshu Sengupta, among others in key roles. ## Stay tuned...

Director Anil Ravipudi Wants To Make Hindi Remake Of Telugu Comedy 'F3'

Hyderabad, April 28 - Director Anil Ravipudi is a well-known name in Telugu cinema and is regarded as one of the most successful directors in the comedy genre. Ravipudi's directorial "F2: Fun and Frustration" holds a special mention in the comedy genre in Telugu cinema. ## After the blockbuster success of "F2", director Ravipudi wanted to take the franchise to next level, and now is ready for its sequel, titled "F3", which is slated for May 27th release. In an exclusive interview with IANS, Ravipudi stated that he had already decided to continue the 'Fun & Frustration' series before 'F2' became a blockbuster success.## "While 'F2' was all about marital issues, 'F3' will be all about money. Each role has its own significance, and I've attempted to incorporate the most relatable aspects", Anil stated. The movie stars Venkatesh, Varun Tej, Tamannaah, and Mehreen Pirzada, who reprise their roles from the first film along with Sonal Chauhan as a new addition.## Meanwhile, Ravipudi has a desire to remake "F3" in Hindi. He said that instead of dubbing the film in Hindi, he would love to direct the Hindi remake. Interestingly, "F2" was dubbed in Hindi and became a big hit on TV. ## "We can easily proceed with dubbing for the film. However, this genre does not work quite like that. Comedy must be local. Different languages have different comedy situations. One scene may be quite relatable in Telugu, and thus comedy may go hand in hand, but the same scene may make no sense in other languages".## "So, remaking the film with appropriate situations and comedy tracks would be wiser. That is why, rather than releasing the dubbed version, I intend to remake 'F3' in Hindi", he added. ## Stay tuned...
