THEATRICAL<br />

TRAILER REVIEW<br />

Ace Director SS Rajamouli has become<br />

the pride of Telugu cinema and his<br />

movies have done exceptionally well<br />

in the nieghbouring languages in the<br />

recent years which made him widely<br />

popular among the film circles. After<br />

scoring back to back stupendous<br />

hits at the box-office, he has now<br />

focused on his magnum opus<br />

titled Baahubali which did not<br />

have any barriers in terms<br />

of budget.<br />

Baahubali has been under shoot for over two years and it has been made on a<br />

whopping budget of over Rs 180 crores. Though Telugu cinema business has been<br />

limited to 70 – 80 crores, this veteran filmmaker has taken to make the movie so<br />

that it will be released in multiple languages to recover the investments. Prabhas,<br />

Anushka, Rana and Tamannah played the leads in the movie and the theatrical trailer<br />

of the movie has been screened today in selected theatres all over AP and Telangana.<br />

Here is an exclusive review on the trailer:<br />

An epic should have stunning visuals and the movie should take us to a new world which we have never seen<br />

but we heard of. Indian audience always remind of Hollywood flicks when it comes to periodic dramas involving<br />

extensive graphic work. Many directors and filmmakers tried their luck on epics in many Indian languages but<br />

most of them ended up as debacles at the ticket window. However this will not happen with Baahubali and the<br />

trailer speaks it all. The 2:05 minutes trailer will take you to a new world which can be never dreamt. My hands<br />

started shivering and heart stopped beating for 125 seconds.A terrific trailer with stunning visuals, beautiful<br />

locales, jaw dropping action episodes and heart breaking performances. The re-recording has been outstanding<br />

and the cinematography has been visually stupendous. How much be the expectations, Baahuabli : The Beginning<br />

trailer will sure meet and live up the expectations. Proud that SS Rajamouil is a part of Indian Cinema and<br />

especially Telugu cinema...The trailer will hit the social media at 5 PM. Don’t miss it. It’s a must watch.The Era of<br />

Baahubali ahead. One of the best trailers.<br />

The Queen<br />

of<br />

Bollywood Cinema<br />

Kangana is sure a special name for the Bollywood audience<br />

because of her achievements in Indian cinema. This doeeyed<br />

beauty hails from scenic Himachal Pradesh. Known<br />

for her off-beat performances in movies like Gangster,<br />

Fashion and Woh Lamhe, it took some time for Kangana<br />

to prove her acting skills. It took some time for Kangana<br />

to showcase her skills on screen and she has established<br />

a career in Bollywood and is the recipient of two National<br />

Film Awards and Filmfare Awards in three categories.<br />

AND HER LATEST<br />

MOVIE QUEEN<br />

HAS MADE HER A<br />

THE CURRENT<br />

BOLLYWOOD<br />

ACTRESSES.<br />

22<br />

“<br />

Kangana has been born and<br />

brought up in Bhambla, Himachal<br />

Pradesh and she has dreamt of<br />

being a doctor. She has been<br />

always confident and had good<br />

clarity about her career. She has<br />

moved to Delhi when she was<br />

16, where she briefly became<br />

a model. After training under<br />

the theatre director Arvind<br />

Gaur, Ranaut made her feature<br />

film debut in the 2006 thriller<br />

Gangster, for which she was<br />

awarded theFilmfare Award for<br />

Best Female Debut.<br />

She received praise for portraying<br />

emotionally intense characters<br />

in the dramas Woh Lamhe<br />

(2006), Life in a Metro (2007)<br />

and Fashion (2008). Kangana has<br />

won National award for her role<br />

as the Best supporting actress<br />

for the movie Fashion. At this<br />

time she has signed many big<br />

movies and most of them ended<br />

as debacles however Kangana<br />

always had a strong belief on<br />

her acting skills which made her<br />

bounce back into success league.<br />

Ranaut featured in the<br />

commercially successful films<br />

Raaz: The Mystery Continues<br />

(2009) and Once Upon a Time<br />

in Mumbaai (2010), though she<br />

was criticised for being typecast<br />

in neurotic roles. A comic role<br />

opposite R. Madhavan in the<br />

2011 box office hit Tanu Weds<br />

Manu was well-received, though<br />

this was followed by a series of<br />

brief, glamorous roles in films<br />

that failed to propel her career<br />

forward. She then played a<br />

mutant opposite Hrithik Roshan<br />

in the science fiction film Krrish<br />

3 (2013), one of the highestgrossing<br />

Bollywood films of all<br />

time.<br />

The movie titled Queen made<br />

Kangana sit on the top for her<br />

performance in the movie.<br />

Queen ended up as the biggest<br />

blockbuster for 2014 surprising<br />

the audience and Kangana’s<br />

magical performance fetched<br />

WEAPON<br />

OF MASS<br />

SEDUCTION:<br />

RANA<br />

DAGGUBATI<br />

He’s hot! He’s handsome! And oh baby, he is so desirable!<br />

Girls go gaga over him, women go weak in their knees when<br />

he lights up the screen with his machismo and men go green<br />

with envy when he does what they wished they could. He<br />

knows the effect he has on women, for sure, but is quite<br />

nonchalant about it, which in a way adds to his appeal.<br />

AGGUBATI<br />

specialSTORY<br />

BOLLYWOOD<br />

From girls-next-door to sultry<br />

sirens, he has been linked with<br />

some of the most happening<br />

heroines of our time.<br />

But mind you, his claim to fame is not<br />

that. From choosing his debut vehicle<br />

`Leader’ under the aegis of Sekhar<br />

Kammula, the master of offbeat<br />

cinema, to bulking up 40 pounds for the magnum<br />

opus `Baahubali’, Rana Daggubati has pushed<br />

the envelope constantly. What’s more, he’s done<br />

it all so effortlessly and convincingly. Not that<br />

his detractors weren’t sniggering behind him<br />

for his various link-ups or the roles he essayed<br />

in Bollywood, they were! But then, a `Leader’<br />

doesn’t give a damn. Regardless of what people<br />

say, Rana knows just one thing. And that one thing<br />

gob smacks them all – his overall impact on the<br />

audiences.<br />

“I GUESS I PICKED THE RIGHT JOB AT THE<br />

RIGHT TIME”<br />

It is one of those sweltering summer days in Chennai<br />

when we catch up with Rana in the cool green environs<br />

of Amethyst. The hunk is in Chennai to shoot the Tamil<br />

remake of the Malayalam smash hit ‘Bangalore Days.’<br />

Judging by the way women stop dead in their tracks<br />

as he passes by in breezy linen, Lawrence and Mayo<br />

sunglasses and his super cute EGOTIST cap, Rana has<br />

earned every bit of the ‘Most Desirable’ tag.<br />

Straight off, I ask him what makes him so desirable.<br />

“Frankly, I have no idea what makes me so desirable as a<br />

man! If you had asked me this question five years ago, I<br />

wouldn’t even have known that things would turn out this<br />

way. I am an actor. Being in the limelight, you need to look<br />

right. And it’s a combination of being fit, being blessed<br />

with good looks, being comfortable in the clothes you<br />

wear and carrying yourself well. You also need to speak<br />

right. So It’s a combination of everything. My makeup<br />

artist, my stylist, my publicist and the people who put<br />

my look together are the ones who need to be given the<br />

credit for making me desirable,” he says, continuing, “You<br />

probably noticed the lady who greeted me as we walked in<br />

and enquired about what brought me here! She was<br />

my colleague in a BPO. I started working straight out of<br />

college. I was a visual effects coordinator. I guess I picked<br />

the right job at the right time. And as to how I got here, the<br />

credit for it goes to a combination of different things.”<br />

” DOES HE<br />

EMULATE<br />

ANYBODY<br />

ON SCREEN?<br />

“LOOK AT<br />

ME. I AM<br />

NATURALLY<br />

TALLER AND<br />

BROADER<br />

THAN MOST<br />

OTHERS.<br />

IF I TRIED<br />

TO EMULATE<br />

THEIR STYLE,<br />

IT WOULDN’T<br />

SUIT ME.”<br />

and trends,” he says.<br />

All through college, Rana<br />

used to wear a lot of his uncle,<br />

Venkatesh’s stuff. He chuckles,<br />

Irrespective of whose clothes he<br />

wears, it is a fact that wherever<br />

he goes and whatever he does,<br />

Rana makes news. Recently, his<br />

switch-over to vegetarianism had<br />

PETA sending him a gift hamper<br />

with predominantly vegan<br />

products. Rana comments, “When<br />

I was preparing for ‘Rudramadevi’<br />

and ‘Baahubali’, I had to eat a lot<br />

of meat to bulk up for my look. The<br />

film and the script demanded<br />

it. Now I am working on the Tamil<br />

remake of ‘Bangalore Days’,<br />

where I am playing the role which<br />

Fahadh Faasil had played in the<br />

Malayalam version. I needed to<br />

get lean. Despite my workout and<br />

rigorous fitness regime, I realised<br />

that the weight and muscles I had<br />

put on for ‘Baahubali’ were hard<br />

to shake off. I always work out five<br />

days a week, no matter where I<br />

“MY STYLE GOES HAND-IN-<br />

HAND WITH MY ROLE IN A<br />

FILM”<br />

How does he balance this ‘Most<br />

Desirable’ tag and his unique<br />

sense of nonchalant style with<br />

the different characters he plays<br />

in his films? “My style goes handin-<br />

hand with my role in a film.<br />

In fact, my look, my physique<br />

– everything depends on that.<br />

‘Rudramadevi’ and ‘Baahubali’<br />

– the two period, historical flicks<br />

required me to sport different<br />

looks. ‘Baahubali’ required me<br />

to bulk up massively, grow long<br />

hair, a beard, the works…I am<br />

totally game for whatever the<br />

character demands of me. We<br />

can’t disagree with that one,<br />

especially after we learnt that his<br />

shoe size is 13! And while he may<br />

not emulate anybody, he certainly<br />

has his favourites as far as style is<br />

concerned. “I think Hrithik Roshan is<br />

very, very stylish among Indian<br />

heroes. He is a style icon, a style guru<br />

so to speak. I can’t even think of a<br />

second name. Among women, Sonam<br />

Kapoor, I think, is super chic and<br />

makes news when it comes to fashion<br />

“I didn’t even<br />

go to college<br />

properly. I would<br />

dig into my<br />

uncle’s wardrobe<br />

for clothes<br />

and shoes.<br />

As an actor,<br />

he used to have<br />

a lot of stylish<br />

stuff – clothes,<br />

shoes and<br />

accessories.”


am. But when I tried a vegetarian<br />

diet, the weight started dropping<br />

significantly. So, I decided to stick to<br />

it for a while, until this project ends.<br />

I am not strictly bound by anything<br />

specific. It all goes with what is<br />

required of me at a particular<br />

point in time.” In terms of project<br />

lineup, Rana is currently working<br />

on the Tamil remake of ‘Bangalore<br />

Days’ and has recently wrapped up<br />

the first part of ‘Baahubali’ which<br />

is due for release in July. There is<br />

no Bollywood project in the offing<br />

yet. However, regardless of how<br />

many landmark films he stars in,<br />

his role in `Leader’, his debut film,<br />

admittedly remains closest to his<br />

heart.<br />

“I always walk<br />

on trouble.<br />

Take the news<br />

about me<br />

turning<br />

vegetarian and<br />

PETA sent me<br />

a gift hamper<br />

acknowledging<br />

my switchover,<br />

presuming<br />

it’s for life!<br />

Now that’s<br />

a very scary<br />

thing to think<br />

of….<br />

Come on,<br />

Ramzan is fast<br />

approaching!”<br />

he laughs<br />

out loud.<br />

“I ALWAYS WALK ON TROUBLE!”<br />

I cannot help but ask Rana about<br />

Trisha, especially at a time when<br />

the grapevine is abuzz that the<br />

engagement between her and<br />

producer and realtor Varun<br />

Manian is over. All he says in<br />

response is a polite, “I don’t think<br />

it’s right to answer these questions<br />

or comment on anything related to<br />

this.” But what about his much<br />

publicised affairs with Bipasha<br />

Basu and Ragini Dwivedi, amongst<br />

others? “I used to find these linkups<br />

really annoying but then when I realised that<br />

all this helps certain newspapers in selling space, I<br />

decided to leave it at that. It doesn’t matter what the<br />

rest of the world thinks about you as long you and<br />

the people around you who matter, know what the<br />

reality is,” he responds. Rana is amongst the few<br />

actors who does not hesitate to speak his mind and is<br />

refreshingly forthright. Often this lands him trouble.<br />

“WHEN THINGS HAPPEN WELL FOR YOU,<br />

DON’T EVER QUESTION THE LOGIC”<br />

Recently, Rana had posted a picture of his from the<br />

sets of his current film, in a wedding costume sitting<br />

in a mandap, And that evinced crazy amounts of<br />

curiosity and reactions even from his fellow actors, not<br />

to mention many sections of the media. “That’s a funny<br />

one,” he guffaws as he reads out news from a Telugu<br />

film portal, “It says that I am gearing up for my secret<br />

wedding. That’s how most of my link-up stories are! Most<br />

are not true and some are utterly nonsensical, like this<br />

one.” Still, I wonder whether the life of someone so<br />

handsome can also be so bland. Surely there is a<br />

special girl in his life right now?<br />

“The fact is that, there is no girl in my life right now. I am not<br />

commitment phobic. Definitely not! I<br />

want to work for a few more years, get<br />

settled and then think about marriage.<br />

I am working in three industries now<br />

– Telugu, Tamil and Hindi. My priority<br />

right now is to do well.” So what’s<br />

the first thing he notices about a<br />

woman, I ask. “Height. I find tall<br />

women appealing. I enjoy talking to<br />

women I can have a fun conversation<br />

with. I believe each one of us has our<br />

own personality and when someone<br />

tries to portray something that they<br />

are not, that’s a big put off.” Why<br />

do women love him so much, I<br />

wonder. He chuckles with delight,<br />

“Don’t ever question such things.<br />

When things happen well for you,<br />

don’t ever question the logic!” So, if<br />

he found the right girl on a date, I<br />

ask him if would he consider living<br />

in. “It depends on the person. I don’t<br />

know who she is. I don’t have one<br />

right now. I believe the idea of a<br />

perfect relationship is that you should<br />

be comfortable with one another. And<br />

you should be yourselves. When you<br />

go out on a date, I believe you should<br />

have fun wherever you are.”<br />

Working in two period<br />

films – ‘Rudramadevi’ and<br />

‘Baahubali’ – Rana feels is<br />

one of the greatest things<br />

that could have ever happened<br />

to his career. “Reconstructing<br />

a part of history is a big thing<br />

indeed. To visualise something<br />

that has happened so long ago<br />

in the past that you have no<br />

scope of ever seeing in real life<br />

or experiencing first-hand is<br />

a feat in itself. As a kid, Lord<br />

Krishna only reminded me<br />

of the late NT Rama Rao and<br />

Veera Pandiya Kattabomman,<br />

of the late Sivaji Ganesan. If<br />

the real people came in front<br />

of me, I would probably be<br />

disappointed because the on<br />

screen images are so firmly<br />

imprinted on my mind. My roles<br />

in both my films are the biggest<br />

blessings I can ever get as an<br />

actor. And if it’s accepted by the<br />

audiences, nothing like it.” Amen<br />

to that!<br />

Exclusive Interview<br />

“MR. BACHCHAN AND<br />

I HAVE THIS UNSAID<br />

UNDERSTANDING<br />

BETWEEN US”<br />

On the day of its release, Deepika Padukone talks about Piku and<br />

working with Amitabh Bachchan again.<br />

28<br />

Deepika<br />

Padukone<br />

How was the shooting<br />

experience in Kolkata.<br />

Did you explore the city?<br />

I hadn’t explored Kolkata<br />

before, the way I did<br />

during the shooting of<br />

Piku. It was perfect to<br />

explore the culture with<br />

Bengalis. Whether it’s<br />

Amitji (Bachchan), who<br />

has a family connection<br />

(wife Jaya Bachchan is a<br />

Bengali) or whether it’s<br />

Shoojitda who himself<br />

is a Bengali. A lot of<br />

technicians on the film<br />

are also Bengalis. A lot<br />

of my Kolkata darshan<br />

happened during the film.<br />

I was familiar with the city<br />

because I had been there<br />

in my ninth standard with<br />

my friends. But this time I<br />

toured the city. We were<br />

there for a month. We<br />

visited a beautiful ghat<br />

and even Satyajit Ray’s<br />

house. We hogged on a<br />

lot of good food. What<br />

is Kolkata without food?<br />

The chaat is so different<br />

there. The momos are<br />

delicious because of the<br />

North-Eastern influence.<br />

Chinese food is also good<br />

and of course, the sweets.<br />

When I went back to<br />

Kolkata for Tamasha, I<br />

could tell people, “Come,<br />

I’ll show you the city.” I’m<br />

fortunate my profession<br />

allows me access to<br />

certain places, which as<br />

a tourist I wouldn’t have<br />

been able to visit. People<br />

open doors to us because<br />

they understand the<br />

impact of cinema.<br />

How was it working with<br />

Amitabh Bachchan in<br />

Piku?<br />

I’ve worked with him<br />

twice now. I’ve also


evolved as a person and<br />

understood the craft<br />

better than say a couple<br />

of years ago. With him<br />

there’s a certain ease<br />

now. We have this<br />

unsaid understanding<br />

between us. There was<br />

this look that we found<br />

in each other’s eyes that<br />

helped us during the<br />

shoot. We would look<br />

at each other’s eyes<br />

and know whether the<br />

other person is ready to<br />

shoot. The way we were<br />

shooting the film, we<br />

had to know the scene<br />

inside out to perform it.<br />

The camera would roll<br />

and we had to knock off<br />

the entire scene. Every<br />

day before the shot was<br />

called, we looked at each<br />

other and knew whether<br />

we were ready or not. If<br />

I wasn’t ready, he’d ask<br />

Shoojit to do one more<br />

rehearsal. Likewise, if I<br />

felt that he wanted to<br />

rehearse more, I’d ask<br />

Shoojit to shoot the<br />

next day. We found our<br />

timing and connection as<br />

actors. It was so organic<br />

and unsaid.<br />

What do you think<br />

makes him the greatest<br />

Indian actor?<br />

He’s passionate about<br />

everything. Even after<br />

being around for so<br />

many years, he’s still at<br />

it. And like they say, God<br />

is in the details. He’s<br />

so meticulous about<br />

everything. Whether it’s<br />

his rehearsals or the way<br />

he’s dressed or the way<br />

his van is kept clean, there<br />

is a system to everything.<br />

He’s a true perfectionist.<br />

The drive and hunger is<br />

amazing. After working<br />

for 40 years, he can say<br />

don’t tell me what to do<br />

because I know it all.<br />

But that hunger to learn<br />

is there. After watching<br />

Finding Fanny he told<br />

me it was amazing that I<br />

had the guts to do it and<br />

there was so much to<br />

learn. He still feels that<br />

there’s so much to learn<br />

and that’s fantastic.<br />

Working with<br />

Amitji is a<br />

new take<br />

in my career. It was<br />

exciting, interesting<br />

and I am fortunate<br />

enough to work with<br />

such a down to earth<br />

actor. Irrfan has been<br />

supportive and caring<br />

enough during the<br />

shoot of the movie.<br />

Shoojit is the man with<br />

lot of talents and he<br />

already made himself<br />

in the big league of<br />

directors.<br />

Grapevine<br />

BOLLYWOOD<br />

SALMAN KHAN LIKELY TO<br />

MAKE A SPECIAL APPEARANCE<br />

IN SHUDDHI!<br />

We all know that Salman Khan<br />

is no longer the lead hero in<br />

Karan Johar’s ambitious film<br />

Shuddhi as he was replaced by<br />

Varun Dhawan. However, fans<br />

of Salman might have a good<br />

news as latest buzz suggest that<br />

Sallu Bhai will have a cameo in<br />

Shuddhi.<br />

Few days back, Salman<br />

Khan took to Twitter and<br />

congratulated Varun Dhawan<br />

for taking up Shuddhi. Soon,<br />

Karan Johar also announced on<br />

Twitter that Varun Dhawan and<br />

Alia Bhatt will play the lead pair<br />

in the film. This news certainly<br />

disappointed Salman’s fans but<br />

according to latest rumours, the<br />

Dabangg actor is likely to play a<br />

cameo in the film.<br />

RANBIR KAPOOR MISSES<br />

DEEPIKA PADUKONE’S PIKU<br />

SUCCESS PARTY<br />

However, Ranbir Kapoor<br />

missed the Piku success bash.<br />

Want to know why and for<br />

what reason the actor was<br />

prominently missed, then read<br />

on.<br />

If industry sources are to be<br />

believed, “Ranbir is a good<br />

friend of Deepika now, she<br />

obviously invited him, but the<br />

debacles of Bombay Velvet<br />

made RK to stay away from the<br />

success bash. Ranbir is very<br />

upset with Bombay Velvet’s<br />

Box Office collection and so he<br />

wants to be left alone”.<br />

SHAHRUKH KHAN TO<br />

PERFORM UNDERWATER<br />

ACTION IN ROHIT SHETTY’S<br />

DILWALE<br />

If it’s Rohit’s film, it better have<br />

some stunning action scenes<br />

and car chases, Dilwale is no<br />

exception. The production team<br />

of the movie have come out<br />

with a video titled, ‘The Dilwale<br />

Drift’ which features the actionpacked<br />

car sequence by Rohit<br />

Shetty for the film.<br />

A close source says, “The short<br />

film is more like a trailer to a<br />

perfect film. There’s so much<br />

more in the film itself. In fact,<br />

there is a particular underwater<br />

action sequence which will be<br />

picturised on Shahrukh; it’s<br />

something even Rohit hasn’t<br />

tried out before”.<br />

HRITHIK ROSHAN-KATRINA<br />

KAIF LIKELY TO PAIR UP AGAIN<br />

Director Siddharth Anand<br />

featured Katrina Kaif and<br />

Hrithik Roshan together<br />

in Bang Bang and rumours<br />

suggest that the director is<br />

planning to bring them together<br />

again for two of his next films.<br />

One leading publication quoted<br />

a source confirming that<br />

Siddharth Anand is preparing<br />

for two of his films and the<br />

director is keen to cast Hrithik<br />

and Katrina in both the films.<br />

Katrina Kaif is currently busy<br />

with a number of upcoming<br />

films including Phantom, Jagga<br />

Jasoos and Fitoor while, Hrithik<br />

Roshan’s next movie is Mohenjo<br />

Daro.<br />

ANURAG KASHYAP NOT<br />

PAYING ANUSHKA SHARMA’S<br />

FEE?<br />

Anurag Kashyap’s Bombay<br />

Velvet performed miserably<br />

at the Box-office. Rumour has<br />

it that the director has not yet<br />

paid the lead actress Anushka<br />

Sharma’s fee. According to<br />

recent reports, Anushka<br />

Sharma is very upset about it as<br />

Ranbir Kapoor has got his full<br />

remuneration while Anushka is<br />

still waiting for it.<br />

Talking about the issue, a source<br />

told Bollywood Hungama,<br />

“Why will Fox be responsible<br />

for clearing her dues? It was<br />

Phantom Films and Anurag who<br />

signed her for the film and it is<br />

they who will have to pay her<br />

for it.”<br />

DEEPIKA PADUKONE IS MORE<br />

IMPORTANT FOR RANVEER<br />

SINGH THAN IIFA!<br />

Although, Ranveer Singh and<br />

Deepika Padukone never<br />

admitted about their love affair,<br />

the duo have been expressing<br />

the same with their actions.<br />

Ranveer will be seen hosting<br />

the IIFA <strong>2015</strong> which is set to<br />

start on <strong>June</strong> 5th but the actor<br />

has reportedly planned to break<br />

a norm of the event for his<br />

supposed lady love.<br />

It is mandatory for IIFA hosts<br />

to reach the location and<br />

rehearse at least two days<br />

prior to the event but Ranveer<br />

Singh reportedly will break<br />

the mandate as he needs to<br />

attend marriage anniversary of<br />

Deepika Padukone’s parents.<br />

TOLLYWOOD<br />

TRISHA FINALLY OPENS UP<br />

ABOUT HER BREAK UP<br />

It is confirmed that Trisha called<br />

off her Engagement with her<br />

business beau, Varun Manian,<br />

for unknown reasons. Though it<br />

is Trisha, who made the reports<br />

official, indirectly by calling<br />

her self happy and single, she<br />

did not directly talk about the<br />

whole saga till date.<br />

“one should not think about<br />

only move forward. Right now,<br />

nothing else is in front of my<br />

eyes except her profession”,<br />

Trisha signs off.<br />

PURI JAGANNADH<br />

PUTS NITHIN AHEAD OF<br />

CHIRANJEEVI<br />

It is known that Puri Jagannadh<br />

has announced a project with<br />

Nithin way before confirming<br />

Chiranjeevi 150 news.<br />

Apparently, every body else had<br />

drawn their own conclusions<br />

that Puri had sidelined Nithin’s<br />

film after getting a call from<br />

Chiranjeevi.<br />

But now, after the completion<br />

of Jyothi Lakshmi, Puri is<br />

gearing up to start Nithin’s<br />

PRABHAS NEW LOOK: ALL SET<br />

FOR HIS NEXT<br />

While Baahubali and the<br />

his plans ready to move on<br />

to his next. It is known that<br />

Prabhas will be working with<br />

Sujeeth Sign of Run Raja Run<br />

fame after Baahubali The<br />

Beginning. Reports were also<br />

rife that Alia Bhatt has been<br />

roped in to romance our very<br />

own Baahubali in this yet to be<br />

titled film. While those reports<br />

were neither denied nor<br />

acknowledged, here we have<br />

Prabhas in a well groomed look.<br />

BAAHUBALI: VISUAL<br />

EXTRAVAGANZA<br />

MAHESH BABU FANS TROLLED<br />

RAJAMOULI AND PRABHAS<br />

RAM GOPAL VARMA GIVES IT<br />

BACK TO JOURNALIST<br />

Living up to the expectations<br />

around Baahubali, the team<br />

released a trailer that is nothing<br />

short of outstanding. Stunning<br />

avatars, breathtaking visuals,<br />

phenomenal background score<br />

and one incredible film maker<br />

puts it on the pedestal among<br />

the films that were ever made in<br />

Indian cinema.<br />

Those few frames of war<br />

episodes we got to see and the<br />

shots of Mahishmati kingdom<br />

offers a visual treat while<br />

the glam doll Tamannaah just<br />

moved like a flowing river in<br />

whites. It is a big let down for<br />

Anushka fans since there’s<br />

only one shot of Sweety in the<br />

trailer.<br />

Until yesterday, everybody<br />

thought Baahubali is going to<br />

be a nightmare for Mahesh<br />

Babu and his upcoming film,<br />

Srimanthudu, considering its<br />

huge hype. But it has proved<br />

to be the other way round,<br />

according to Mahesh Babu fans.<br />

As reports were rife that<br />

Baahubali audio release has<br />

been pushed to some other<br />

date from May 31, Mahesh<br />

Babu fans started circulating<br />

trolls and memes on Rajamouli,<br />

Prabhas and Baahubali,<br />

indicating that they feared<br />

Ram Gopal Varma, who is<br />

usually very cool with media<br />

and media personnel, has<br />

reacted harsh to a report that<br />

has been published in today’s<br />

Deccan Chronicle. A journalist<br />

from the leading daily has<br />

reported that Ram Gopal<br />

Varma will be teaming up with<br />

an adult star for his upcoming<br />

film. The report suggested that<br />

RGV is set to direct Tori Black<br />

and went on to add details<br />

about the project.<br />

This has hurt RGV badly since<br />

the newspaper did not try<br />

to check the news with the<br />

Turning all those speculations<br />

Analysis<br />

The first half of the movie has been highly entertaining right from the first<br />

scene. The movie has been racy and engaging. The film brings out lot of<br />

question however the audience ends up getting wrong answers. On the<br />

whole, the complete first half has been highly impressive.<br />

The second half too carries the same momentum but it dips at times. When<br />

you feel that the movie is losing its grip, the film gains the momentum back.<br />

An emotional and well written climax makes the film a highly satisfied film<br />

to watch this weekend.<br />

the right thing or not” revealed Ranveer.<br />

Aditya Chopra and directed by Maneesh Sharma. The<br />

received exceptional response for their performance<br />

in the movie.<br />

alongside Arjun Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra andIrrfan<br />

Khan.Gunday emerged as the biggest commercial hit<br />

of Ranveer and the movie opened to packed houses<br />

Bollywood has witnessed many successors for the established actors and actresses trying<br />

their luck on sliverscreen. It’s really challenging to impress the audience as they keep lot<br />

of expectations even before they showcase their acting skills and abilities.<br />

One such actress who made big is Shraddha<br />

Kapoor. Though she failed to meet the<br />

expectations during her initial days, Shraddha<br />

has proved her skills and made her place<br />

prominent in the list of big league actresses.<br />

She made her debut as the daughter of<br />

veteran actor Shakti Kapoor, Shraddha made<br />

her debut as an actor in 2010 with Teen Patti<br />

and followed it with her first leading role in the<br />

teen drama Luv Ka The End (2011). She has<br />

struggled for offers during these days as both<br />

the movies could not make any impact at the<br />

box-office.<br />

Shraddha was born and raised in Mumbai<br />

into a mixed ethnic family. On her father’s<br />

side, Kapoor is of Punjabi descent, and on<br />

her mother’s side, she is of predominantly<br />

Marathi ancestry. Like her mother, Kapoor<br />

has stated that she is a complete Marathi.<br />

Kapoor’s family members, including her<br />

parents, Shakti Kapoor and Shivangi Kapoor,<br />

her older brother, Siddhanth Kapoor and her<br />

two aunts Padmini Kolhapure and Tejaswini<br />

Kolhapure are actors in Hindi films. She did her<br />

schooling at Jamnabai Narsee School and then<br />

enrolled in the American School of Bombay.<br />

While there she played soccer and handball<br />

competitively. Later, she went to Boston, but<br />

subsequently left to appear in her debut film<br />

after she was seen on Facebook by producer<br />

Ambika Hinduja who cast her for a role in Teen<br />

Patti.<br />

She made her acting debut in the 2010 drama<br />

Teen Patti alongside Amitabh Bachchan,<br />

Ben Kingsley and R Madhavan. She played<br />

the role of a college girl. The film received<br />

negative reviews though her performance<br />

was well received. Kapoor was nominated for<br />

the Filmfare Award for Best Female Debut,<br />

however, the film failed to do well at the boxoffice.<br />

The critics and reviewers have praised<br />

her performance in the movie and called an<br />

impressive debut.<br />

teen comedy Luv Ka The End with Taaha Shah.<br />

Kapoor portrayed the lead role of a teenage<br />

student who plots against her boyfriend after<br />

he cheats on her. The film underperformed<br />

at the box office and received mixed reviews<br />

from critics. However, Kapoor’s performance<br />

received a positive critical reception.Then<br />

came Aashiqui 2 which changed her life. This<br />

was the best decision in her life and the movie<br />

had Aditya Roy Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor<br />

in the main leads. Directed by Mohit Suri, the<br />

movie went on to collect Rs 100 crores at the<br />

box-office.<br />

After her debut, she signed a three-film deal<br />

with Yash Raj Films and featured in their 2011<br />

Her second release of 2014 was Vishal Bhardwaj’s critically acclaimed drama Haider,<br />

an adaptation of William Shakespeare’s Hamlet set during the Kashmir conflict of 1995.<br />

The movie not only received critical reception, it collected huge money. She has recently<br />

ABCD. Prabhudeva, Varun Dhawan and Shraddha Kapoor played the main leads in the<br />

A MASTERPIECE<br />

IN THE HISTORY<br />

OF INDIAN CINEMA<br />

The movie which has created wonders in<br />

Indian Film Industry and the one which<br />

will remain in the hearts of the audience<br />

forever will be Sholay. This action<br />

adventure film has been directed by<br />

Ramesh Sippy and it released on August<br />

15th 1975. The film has been produced<br />

by GP Sippy on Sippy Films banner.<br />

The film follows two criminals, Veeru<br />

and Jai (played byDharmendra and<br />

Amitabh Bachchan), hired by a retired<br />

police officer (Sanjeev Kumar) to<br />

capture the ruthless dacoit Gabbar<br />

Singh (Amjad Khan).Hema Malini and<br />

Jaya Bhaduri also star, as Veeru and Jai’s<br />

love interests.<br />

Sholay is considered a classic and one<br />

of the best Indian films. It was ranked<br />

first in the British Film Institute’s 2002<br />

poll of “Top 10 Indian Films” of all time.<br />

In 2005, the judges of the 50th annual<br />

Filmfare Awards named it the Best Film<br />

of 50 Years.<br />

The film was shot in the rocky terrain<br />

of Ramanagara, in the southern state<br />

ofKarnataka, over a span of two and<br />

a half years. After the Central Board<br />

of Film Certification mandated the<br />

removal of several violent scenes,<br />

Sholay was released with a length of 198<br />

minutes. In 1990, the original director’s<br />

cut of 204 minutes became available on<br />

home media.<br />

When first released, Sholayreceived<br />

negative critical reviews and a tepid<br />

commercial response, but favourable<br />

word-of-mouth publicity helped it to<br />

become a box office success. It broke<br />

records for continuous showings in<br />

many theatres across India, and ran<br />

for more than five years at Mumbai’s<br />

Minerva theatre.<br />

In some of the territories, Sholay is the<br />

highest grossing Indian film of all time,<br />

adjusted for inflation. The combined<br />

sales of the original soundtrack, scored<br />

by R. D. Burman, and the dialogues<br />

(released separately), set new sales<br />

records. The film’s dialogues and certain<br />

characters became extremely popular,<br />

contributing to numerous cultural<br />

memes and becoming part of India’s<br />

daily vernacular. In January 2014,<br />

Sholay was re-released to theatres in<br />

the 3D format.<br />

Sholay was nominated for nine Filmfare Awards, but the only winner was M. S. Shinde, who won the award for<br />

Best Editing. The film also won three awards at the 1976 Bengal Film Journalists’ Association Awards (Hindi<br />

section): “Best Actor in Supporting Role” for Amjad Khan, “Best Cinematographer (Colour)” for Dwarka Divecha,<br />

and “Best Art Director” for Ram Yedekar. Sholay received a special award at the 50th Filmfare Awards in 2005:<br />

Best Film of 50 Years.<br />

Sholay has received many “Best Film” honours. It was declared the “Film of the Millennium” by BBC India in<br />

1999. It topped the British Film Institute’s “Top 10 Indian Films” of all time poll of 2002 and was voted the<br />

greatest Indian movie in a Sky Digital poll of one million British Indians in 2004. It was also included in Time<br />

Magazine’s “Best of Bollywood” list in 2010 and in CNN-IBN’s list of the “100 greatest Indian films of all time”<br />

in 2013.<br />

Amitabh Bachchan, who is very active on social<br />

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan on Twitter.<br />

In the pictures, Big B is seen addressing the crowd<br />

outside his bungalow Jalsa with his family. He also<br />

mentioned about the pictures in his blog.<br />

Amitabh Bachchan wrote about Aaradhya Bachchan,<br />

“The little one comes out to greet the well wishers and<br />

after much persuasion. She is apprehensive of crowds,<br />

and has shown an abhorrence to them all along. I would<br />

never be able to decipher this, but there it is ...’’<br />

Amitabh Bachchan says that he still feels afraid to<br />

make a public appearance. ‘’Appearances before the<br />

public are even more frightening. Particularly when asked<br />

to perform or present or speak on occasion.’’<br />

‘‘The thought of not being misjudged, of not making error,<br />

of wanting to engage and leave soon, is what creeps into<br />

the mind ..’’ the superstar added.<br />

ARIES<br />

CANCER<br />

You want to travel this<br />

month of <strong>June</strong>, go visit<br />

some friends in another<br />

city, go to the beach, and<br />

visit new cities that are<br />

not so far. You take a sister<br />

or some friends to go<br />

with you. The more, the<br />

merrier. Be careful if you<br />

are the driver, you can be<br />

too impetuous so avoid<br />

any risk on the road. You<br />

are in a beautiful period<br />

for love, meeting a new<br />

partner is an absolute<br />

possibility, so stay open<br />

to any invitation, share<br />

your interests with new<br />

people, and among them,<br />

who knows, you could<br />

meet love. Don’t stay in<br />

the same environment,<br />

move, be active, Uranus<br />

encourages you to get out<br />

of your routine.t<br />

GEMINI<br />

TAURUS<br />

You are focused on money:<br />

a raise motivates you<br />

to save money. Or you<br />

make projects that need<br />

more money than your<br />

regular budget can allow.<br />

You think about selling<br />

stuff on EBay, or saving<br />

on expenses that are not<br />

mandatory. You will be<br />

super smart at that, your<br />

projections for the future<br />

sound right and you will<br />

get rewards. Your parents<br />

are also happy to help.<br />

Some Taurus are about<br />

to move out, they found<br />

the home of their dreams,<br />

Venus and Jupiter help<br />

them to be lucky in that<br />

sector of their life. If you<br />

are in a couple, you enjoy<br />

quiet evenings together.<br />

No need for crazy night.<br />

You may feel tired, lacking energy and needing<br />

rest. Listen to your body and wait for the 26th of<br />

<strong>June</strong> when Mars enters in Cancer where it will<br />

change completely. You will be so dynamic that<br />

you will be exhausting for your partner. All of a<br />

sudden you will want to go out and dance, do all<br />

the things you could not do before. You are upset<br />

at work because some attitudes of coworkers<br />

don’t agree with your values and code. You are<br />

honest and want to accomplish hard tasks with<br />

discipline, and when people don’t do that, you<br />

get angry. Let it go, mind you own business and<br />

be at peace.<br />

LEO<br />

Venus enters in Leo on the 6th of<br />

<strong>June</strong> for a few month, and the length<br />

of that stay is not so common. So<br />

enjoy the presence of that planet in<br />

your sign, it helps you find love and<br />

beauty, it brings joy and helps you to<br />

be happy with yourself and someone<br />

else. Jupiter is in Leo so it is even<br />

better for you. Two planets of luck in<br />

your sign bring for sure lots of gifts<br />

from the universe.You believe in your<br />

luck and potential and you are right,<br />

self-confidence bring good events<br />

and it is a powerful tool. You will<br />

closer to your parents, on the second<br />

half of <strong>June</strong>.<br />

Mercury is in Gemini the whole month and it makes you very<br />

active intellectually and also very creative. Ideas just flow out<br />

of your brain without effort, it is hard to keep up with you. It<br />

is also the month of your birthday and you may celebrate it<br />

several times, with your parents, with your friends, at work,<br />

you have many opportunities to celebrate and you are always<br />

ready to celebrate. Love is good if you are in a relationship,<br />

no drama, respect, dialogue, sense of humor. Single are like<br />

butterflies, their heart does not stop to thump, expect it is<br />

never for the same person.<br />

VIRGO<br />

SAGITTARIUS<br />

Career is at the top of your priorities in <strong>June</strong>. You may be<br />

going through a period of tests, exams, or interviews and it is<br />

a good time for you. At the end, you will have some choices<br />

and different options, school or work, you will decide what you<br />

want. You have to know that Jupiter will enter in your sign in<br />

August and you will then enter in a very lucky period of your<br />

life. So be positive and don’t play things at a low level, take<br />

some risk and dare go to a higher level than what you think.<br />

Love is not what you want right now, if you are single, you are<br />

happy to be. Couples are doing ok, just very busy.<br />

SCORPIO<br />

Saturn comes back in Scorpio for<br />

a last visit that will last 3 months.<br />

It will be time to fix the last<br />

things you did not finish those<br />

last 2 years. You may want to give<br />

another try to a relationship and<br />

finally realize that it does not<br />

work and it will be time to let go<br />

forever. or you decide to change<br />

^your professional orientation<br />

and go for a proper training. Or<br />

you finally settle for good in your<br />

apartment, emptying the last<br />

boxes. Or you get rid of stuff from<br />

your childhood, you are an adult<br />

now. Single may meet love at<br />

work, it may be complicated but<br />

interesting.<br />

LIBRA<br />

Lilith comes back and forth<br />

in your sign, and it changes<br />

your vision of life. Usually<br />

you can be pretty optimistic<br />

and positive, you alternate<br />

moments of realism and<br />

criticisms with you natural<br />

attitude. You may realize that<br />

there are some things your<br />

partner does that are really<br />

irritating you. And you want<br />

him to change. You prepare a<br />

nice trip or vacation and you<br />

organize the itinerary, the<br />

reservations, you don’t count<br />

on anybody else. At work you<br />

are encouraging the team<br />

around you, and you know<br />

exactly who is best at what, so<br />

you push each of them to do<br />

what they excel at.<br />

Very good month of <strong>June</strong> for the<br />

Sagittarius, active and running like you<br />

like it. You may have several trips in that<br />

month and you love that. Love is happy<br />

and easy, you are close and intense but at<br />

the same time not clingy to one another.<br />

Sag’ love their independence. At work you<br />

are lucky, a proposition that you did not<br />

expect makes you happy but confused. Is<br />

it something you should completely get<br />

into or add another secondary activity?<br />

You will play it safe financially. You want<br />

to keep a good quality of life financially<br />

even if you have to work more. And you<br />

have a good energy anyway.<br />

CAPRICORN<br />

In <strong>June</strong> you want to change a lot<br />

of things in your life and you think<br />

about it. The way you eat, where you<br />

live, how you interact with the other<br />

gender, what you expect from life<br />

and from friends and also from love<br />

of course. You are divided between a<br />

need for commitment and grounding,<br />

and a desire of independence and<br />

exploration. Even the slightest change<br />

can bring some satisfaction, stop<br />

smoking, doing gym every other day,<br />

that can be enough to change your<br />

mood. You talk a lot with your sweetie<br />

wanting to know what is going on in<br />

his or her mind, you hate mysteries or<br />

silence, and you want truth.<br />

AQUARIUS<br />

PISCES<br />

Enter all of the sweepstakes and contests that you can on<br />

the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th, and sign up for free memberships,<br />

call in old debts, clip coupons - you deserve everything<br />

that comes your way, Aquarius dear, and you shouldn’t<br />

have to work for it! You’re a true inspiration to others<br />

on the 7th and 8th, especially young children. When you<br />

have the chance to be a mentor and shape young minds,<br />

you step up to the challenge big time. There’s some<br />

bizarre stuff happening on the 13th and 14th, mostly<br />

involving older relatives or someone from your past.<br />

Before you dismiss something as ‘unbelievable,’ look at<br />

all the facts. Stranger things have happened! Haven’t<br />

they?! You’re a great negotiator on the 25th and 26th,<br />

and your arguments are very balanced.<br />

You will be very close to your family this month, ready<br />

to give some weekends to celebrate some anniversary<br />

or birthday, or an engagement party for your sister or<br />

brother. You are happy to share those bright moments.<br />

If your sweetie wants to join, fine. If he or she does<br />

not want to come, you will still go, no question of<br />

giving up those events. At work, you are succeeding at<br />

everything you do; results are impressive, due to hard<br />

work, luck and good circumstances. If you are still a<br />

student, the return of Saturn in the sector of studies<br />

will help you to accomplish what you expect.<br />
