More news →I love my moments with my dad - Raghubabu
Years have gone by and we have seen our beloved stars sizzle on screen for umpteen times. Now, their children are all grown up and it's their turn to make it big in the Tollywood town. A quite common fact of kids taking up the place as successors is well acquainted and in cinema it just gets even the more publicized. A former arrival in the series is Raghubabu, son of the multi-persona Giribabu. A successful producer-director-actor, the senior father also enacted beside his son during the initial days. On the start, he was deprived of a good number of offers. However, he continued to strive giving his best all the time. Then he created a steady place for himself in Tollywood doing role of a villain or comedian in about 160 movies. Now, people have recognized him as a delivering artist. The movies 'Chennakesava Reddy', 'Aadi', 'Dil', 'Bunny', 'Kabadi Kabadi', 'Murari' including the recent Gopichand starrer 'Shouryam', gave scope projecting him as a good actor. Presently, he enacts in various roles of villain, character artist, a straight comedian or sometimes a comical goon. Interestingly the senior producer cum hero Mohan Babu has also passed through such a phase in his career and is now one of the top artists. Raghubabu's dire wish is to play a protagonist and make the movie a hit. Recently, he did a full positive role in a film. A bad turn that the movie did not reap success as expected. Thus, his wish is still in the dungeons. Recently, when he was approached and asked to reveal a sweet memory, he replied, 'every moment I spent with my father in the making of a scene are sweet memories to me'. Sweet memories, indeed!
Naga Chaitanya Said 'I love my girlfriend'
It was a fitting occasion for Naga Chaitanya to tell the world that he loves his girlfriend. The Akkineni star was at Radio Mirchi to release the song 'Evarey' from 'Premam' when a scribe asked him as to who all he loves. The actor said that he loves his mother, girlfriend, and the family at large. The girlfriend in question was something he didn't elaborate on. For obvious reasons, as the Akkinenis and the girl don't want to go public about the alliance as yet. Chai saying that he loves his girlfriend after his mom only confirms (if confirmation was at all needed) that their marriage is very much on cards. Surely, Chai must have thought of that special one when he sang 'Aa dhaivamey naaku cheppindi epudo, nee chinni chirunavvey viluvaina varamantoo' (lyrics from his latest movie).
I would love to see Mahesh as James Bond: Krishna
Superstar Krishna has been given the Kalaprapoorna award. He has been meeting the press on the occasion. Like always, he is a man of few words. Despite being the reigning superstar for a long, long time, Krishna is not one to talk of his achievements. He is modest when it comes to accepting his stardom. However, since he is doing some important and interesting roles once again, we asked him what role he would love to play most. 'Sivaji,' he says without batting an eyelid. Though he got to play the role in Chandrahaasa, he is not satisfied as it was a small role. He hopes he would get to play a full-length character as Sivaji before he calls it a day. Meanwhile, he is keen also to see son Mahesh as James Bond. We all know that Krishna was the actor who set the trend for thrillers in Telugu. His 'Mosagallaku Mosagadu' was a record-breaking hit and there has been no film to match its style till date in Telugu. Though Mahesh once tried a similar role in Jayant Paranje's film. It failed at the box-office and Mahesh stayed away from such experimentation ever since. But now from the superstar, we know that Mahesh too loves to play the Telugu version of the secret agent, who makes the women swoon world over. Now, who could be a better choice than Mahesh to play Bond? Our vote's for you Mahesh! Anyday, anytime!

"I love my part in FASHION" - Arjan Bajwa
Remember the suave and sophisticated young businessman with negative shades who appeared in the first half of GURU? We are talking about Arjan Bajwa who made his Bollywood debut way back in 2004 with ill fated WOH TERA NAAM THA. Though he debuted in this Kuku Kohli film as a leading man, success eluded him in Bollywood since the film flopped at the box office. Though he enjoyed his stint down South, his heart always craved to make a comeback in Bollywood. Soon GURU followed and things started looking up for the talented young man. "I met Madhur sir through a common friend. He was finalizing the cast of FASHION and thought that I could be roped in as the main male lead opposite Priyanka Chopra. He had a look at my work in GURU, a few ad films which I has done and also the test shoot that I had done earlier for Anurag Kashyap's GULAAL", Arjan talks about his journey en route to FASHION. Did he ever worry that with the film revolving around the world of fashion and in particular Priyanka, he may be sidelined? "When it is Madhur sir, you don't have much of a choice. It isn't everyday that a multiple National award winning director deems you fit for a role. You just want to go in the direction set for you and trust the director's vision", explains Arjan. Going back the memory lane, he adds, "It was pretty much the same in case of GURU as well. When Mani sir (Mani Ratnam) trusted me for playing the part which was Abhishek Bachchan's nemesis, I didn't think twice before signing on the dotted line. I didn't worry whether the role would be seen as a black or gray. For me, it was an exciting role with an opportunity to be a part of Mani Ratnam cinema." "Even in FASHION, I love the part which I am required to play and enter the arena with no regrets. And come on, why would I think twice before being a part of the project. After all I get to play the lead against Priyanka."
