Smita's New Album release for Maha Shivaratri
Maha Shivaratri is round the corner and it’s time to soak in devotion and celebrate Shiva. On this occasion I am happy to announce the release of my two music videos on Shiva. One of them is Jagadguru Adi Shankaracharya’s “Nirvana Shatakam”, being released tonight (4th March, 2016). The second video will be released on 7th March, which happens to be the night of Maha Shivaratri. Nirvana Shatakam is a composition consisting of 6 slokas that summarize the basic teachings of Advaita Vedanta or the teachings of non-dualism. It is often said by realized Gurus that these few verses can be of tremendous value for those progressing on the path of self-realization. Success of “Ishana” inspired me to go deeper into spiritual music. Nihal who composed Ishana has also scored music for these two songs. The videos are beautifully captured by Sameer Reddy garu, choreographed By Vijay and edited by Adele Periera. I dedicate this video to Sadhguru, my guru who set me on a spiritual journey seven years ago and my grandmother Smt.T.Lakshmi Kantamma who has been my driving force and my inspiration. She was intensely spiritual and lived her life in the true essence of Nirvana Shatakam. I would like thank all the musicians and vocalists who helped me in making this happen.
Chiranjeevi Smitten by Tamanna Bug
Mega Star Chiranjeevi has wonderful sense of humor not only onscreen but also off screen, when it comes to having fun with his co-stars. While addressing the audio songs release of Ram Charan's 'Racha', mega star expressed his desire to romance Tamanna for his 150th movie. That's not all, he also said that he is ready to do the milestone film if Tamanna says 'YES' to act opposite him. So what happened next? An overwhelmed Tamanna obliged the mocking proposal of Chiru immediately. It seems Chiranjeevi was bowled over by the beauty and performance of Tamanna in Racha and praised the actress in the event. Tamanna is looking smoking hot in Racha and several celebrities like Rajamouli, Vinayak and Vamsi Paidipally too showered compliments on her. Coming to Chiranjeevi's 150 movie details, the actor once again accentuated that the film's chances of happening will depend on a fit script.

Hosted by Akshay and his wife Twinkle Khanna, the party saw none other than Hollywood super star Will Smith joining for the evening. Bollywood celebs like Jacqueline Fernandez, Alia Bhatt and Sonakshi Sinha who have attended the party competed with each other to get a selfie clicked with Will Smith. The party has surely raised many eyebrows, and Bollywood is jealous of such parties. Meanwhile, heroines of Rustom, Ileana and Esha Gupta are missing in the scene.

As soon as I watched it, I knew it will be a big hit for sure. I congratulated Chandoo Mondeti immediately. While returning to home, I tweeted that I was very happy. On reading the tweet, many people asked me if I was happy because of \u2018Premam\u2018 or because I was going to home. I told them I was happy because I watched \u2018Premam\u2018. I had tears in my eyes while watching the climax scene wherein Shruti Haasan looks at Chaitanya on eating a particular sweet. \u2018Premam\u2018 is a very feel-good movie.

Chandoo made the movie keeping in mind the Telugu nativity.\u201d\n\nThe proud father further said, \u201cMany people ask me as to why \u2018Shiva\u2019 shouldn\u2019t be remade with Chaitu or Akhil. \u2018Shiva\u2019 can\u2019t be repeated. A \u2018Chandramukhi\u2019 can\u2019t be done as it is. Our comedy, our songs, our culture are unique. Keeping all this in mind, Chandoo retained the soul and made this remake. Several people took potshots when \u2018Premam\u2019 was sought to be remade. Of course, our people, too, would do that if someone were to remake a Telugu classic. But, as Chaitu said, the intention was never to better the original.\u201d\n\nNag was all praise for his son\u2019s acting. \u201cMy father wouldn\u2019t praise me because he felt he shouldn\u2019t do so as a father. But I would like to praise my son. Chaitanya has done a wonderful job. It was at the same age as his that I got to do \u2018Githanjali\u2019. I did what I could have at that age. I think Chaitu has done his best at his age. The audience are going to watch \u2018Premam\u2018 on TV many times. Since Chandoo is my fan, he wrote the dialogues very well. The \u2018cycle chain\u2019 line has been getting a very good response. The production values are remarkable. As a line by my character goes in the last scene: What more can a father ask for except his son\u2019s success.\u2019 It\u2019s my feeling, too.\u201d\n\nNaga Chaitanya said, \u201cIt was producer Vamsi who first told me about \u2018Premam\u2019. I had watched the film and so, I gave the nod. He didn\u2019t want us to hurry up keeping a deadline in mind. It\u2019s only our conviction that the film came out very well that mattered. It takes a lot of guts to remake a classic like this. Chandoo recreated it without spoiling the soul. Chandoo has given me a big gift. Entertainment was brought out very well through Praveen, Srinivasa Reddy, Brahmaji and Narra.\u201d\n\nThe film\u2019s presenter PD Prasad said, \u201cIt was an adventure to remake \u2018Premam\u2019. We have got a share of Rs. 21 cr for the first 10 days. Even in the third week, we are adding new screens. We have released it even in Kerala. It\u2019s great that the film is running to packed houses for all three shows there. Our film is running successfully in Chennai as well. We are going to add six more screens there. We thank the audience and Akkineni fans for this grand success.\u201d\n\nDirector Chandoo Mondeti said, \u201cWe thank the audience for this big hit. People are asking me if the teenage portions of Chaitanya were shot five years ago. From this, you can gauge how much he must have worked hard for the role. I feel it\u2019s the best compliment.
