More news →The Chanti mama NTR likes so much
He is fondly called as Chanti 'garu'. He is an industry elder who has worked with the likes of K Raghavendra Rao in the past and SS Rajamouli in the new millennium ('Sye', 'Yamadonga', 'Magadheera' have fetched him the Best Editor Nandi. So, three of the five Nandis he has won are Rajamouli movies). He is Kotagiri Venkateswara Rao, whom NTR calls Chanti 'mama'. Speaking at the success meet of 'Janatha Garage' the other day, NTR profusely thanked Kotagiri for the best editing output with respect to his new movie. (Note: In the past, the celebrated technician had edited 'Student No. 1', 'Simhadri', 'Narasimhudu', 'Dammu', 'Rabhasa'). As for Koratala Siva, he expressed surprise at the editor's ability to keep the flow intact. "After watching a scene, I would come out of the edit room thinking nothing was edited out. That is till my assistants tell me that a line was edited out. Such is his technique. Even the director won't discover it because he helps maintains the flow ", Siva said at the success meet.
'Maa Aayana Chanti Pilladu' in DTS mixing
DTS mixing work is in progress for 'Maa Aayana Chanti Pilladu' directed by Raja Vannemreddy and produced by Bekkem Venugopal on the banner of Lucky Media with Sivaji, Meera Jasmine and Sangeeta in the lead. Director says, 'When a man is innocent and is ready to fall in the trap of women, his wife should be more careful and attentive. What kind of situation Meera Jasmine faced when Sivaji started befriending with another woman Sangeeta is the subject. What made that man to fall in the trap of another woman is the point behind the story. How Meera Jasmine was able to thwart the situation was moulded on the screen excellently.' The film was the remake of a successful Tamil film 'Yan Burushan Kulanda Madiri'. Music is by MM Srilekha while Bhaskarabhatla penned all the lyrics.
Meera's chants
Meera Chopra was obviously disappointed that Bangharam did not give the kind of opening that she would have hoped for in Telugu. The film did not give her enough room to make a mark. But Meera hasn't lost her hopes of making it here in Andhra. She is very gung-ho about Satyam Shivam Sundaram. The film, which features Nitin in three 'perspectives', gives Meera a good chance to redeem herself. "It is a very nice movie and I hope to make the most of the opportunity," Meera says
Bajrangi Bhaijaan' trailer: Salman Khan chants Hanuman Chalisa
Helpful 'Bajrangi' has returned to his action avatar! The trailer of Bollywood superstar Salman Khan's "Bajrangi Bhaijaan”, released on Thursday, shows the actor reciting the Hanuman Chalisa while embarking on an action-filled journey from India to Pakistan. Showing Salman with tears in his eyes as he commences his odessey from India to Pakistan in this Kabir Khan directorial, the trailer features the actor's stunts, Kareena Kapoor Khan's ethnic Indian wear and the comic avatar of Nawazuddin Siddiqui -- all in all, the trailer is quite a visual delight. The two-and-half minute video starts with Salman asking a little girl (Harshaali Malthotra) about her nationality. But since she can’t speak, Salman, as the innocent and “bhola bhala” Pavan Kumar Chaturvedi, fondly called as 'Bajrangi', remains unaware that she hails from Pakistan. It’s only after the India-Pakistan cricket match that Pavan comes to know that the girl is a Pakistani. He is given orders to ferry her to Pakistan and Pavan being a Lord Hanuman devotee, decides to take her to Pakistan without any passport or visa. The trailer sees Salman fighting all the odds to help the little girl reach her home safely, and features Kareena looking beautiful in her role of Rasika, a school teacher. One also gets a glimpse of Kashmir. Nawazuddin, who plays the role of a Pakistani reporter in the film, is likely to deliver yet another powerhouse performance with this film. After Salman's fellow Khans Shah Rukh and Aamir promoted the first look of “Bajrangi Bhaijaan” on Twitter, fans were anxiously awaiting its trailer. The buzz is also strong especially after the success of Kabir and Salman's last outing “Ek Tha Tiger”. “Bajrangi Bhaijaan” is likely to release on July 18, on the occasion of Eid, which has always turned out to be a win-win situation for Salman at the box office.
