Shatamanam Bhavati Movie-Review-story-stills-music-songs-video-free-download-tickets-Sharwanand-Anupama Parameswaran

CAST: Sharwanand, Anupama Parameswaran, Prakash Raj, Jayasudha, Naresh, Indraja

DIRECTION: Satish Vegesna
GENRE: Family
DURATION: 2 hours 14 minutes


Story: Raju garu (Prakash Raj) lives in Aatreyapuram with his wife (Jaya Sudha) who pines for her kids. Their two sons and daughter Jhansi live abroad and barely ever come to visit. When his wife asks Rajugaru to invite the kids for Sankranthi, knowing they never make time, he tells them that they have decided to get a divorce to make them come home. And when they do, Jhansi’s daughter Nitya (Anupama) and Raju (Sharwanand), Rajugaru’s grandson who is the village heartthrob fall in love. Amidst the family drama their love story too blossoms.
Movie Review: Every tried and tested Tollywood trope that a Sankranthi family cinema has promised time and again can be found in this film. The nostalgia-inducing festival traditions, village nativity (particularly baiting the US box offices), a bava mardalu romance and an abundance of dialogues highlighting the importance of family – what more do you need for a perfect pandaga watch! And that’s what Shatamanam Bhavati does. There isn’t much to the story itself in the film as much as there are those philosophical lines about love, life and family.
The movie is a story that can be told in 10 minutes but rides on a plethora of scenes that are meant to give you the “pandaga feel”. You watch a big happy family coming together for the festival and spending quality time with each other, and it does warm your heart. But there is no real conflict to the story. It’s just Prakash Raj’s final monologue that fixes everyone’s attitude. As for the love story, the only conflict was Jhansi considering her daughter’s love for Raju just infatuation. And considering what we see, it could just be true.
Here’s the love story: Raju is the intelligent, obedient and loving young boy who girls in the village drool over. The village goody-two-shoes who has absolutely nothing negative about him. Nitya is the Australian-born NRI maradalu who at first was reluctant to even visit India but over the short trip falls in love with Raju and decides to stay back forever in Aatreyapuram as his wife. Sure does sound like infatuation. But well, it only takes a second for Prakash Raj to change Jhansi’s mind. He says, “inthakante manchi alludu dorakadu” and just like that she’s convinced. If that doesn’t sum up the dramatic liberties that were taken in the film I don’t know what does.
Technically, the cinematography is top-notch – due credit must be given to the locations as well. Prakash Raj nailed his role and so did Indraja and Jaya Sudha. Sharwanand’s performance somehow felt disconnected and uninterested while Anupama’s prowess as an actress was wasted in the role. She just had to be the wide-eyed NRI mardalu who is excited pretty much about everything that catches her eye. She did look ravishing though, albeit too young. Music is basically the love-child of SVSC and A Aa. Mickey doesn’t seem to have recovered from the hangover.
All said and done, Shatamanam Bhavathi doesn’t offer much as a film. However, this is the holiday season, and if you wanted watch a laid-back low-risk film with your family, there couldn’t be a better choice.

Gautamiputra Satakarni Movie-riview-story-cinema stills-songs-tickets-free-download-Nandamuri Balakrishna-Hema Malini-Shriya Saran

CAST: Nandamuri Balakrishna, Hema Malini, Shriya Saran, Shiva Rajkumar, Kabir Bedi
DIRECTION: Krish Jagarlamudi
GENRE: History
DURATION: 2 hours 25 minutes

STORY: Satakarni (Balakrishna) the emperor of the Satavahana kingdom nurtures a dream – a united Bharata khandam. He fights wars to unite the entire Bharata khandam under one kingdom thus ending all war. The film traces the life and glory of the 2 century emperor.

GAUTAMIPUTRA SATAKARNI MOVIE REVIEW: Directed by Anjanaputra Krish, starring Basavatarakamputra Balakrishna and Neerajaputri Shriya – Gautamiputra Satakarni as promised is all about Telugu glory. Generously embellished with dialogues that sing praises of the “Telugu jathi”, and that too delivered by Balayya, GPSK gives the audience a lot of reasons to cheer. Balakrishna looked like he put his own love for the culture in the dialogues. “Badugu jaathi kadu Telugu jathi!” thunders Satakarni to the northern ruler who mocks the people of the south and he does it powerfully enough to make you feel the Telugu pride in you that you never knew existed – quite a fix of regional ego, that.

As Satakarni asks “Amma kante ekkuva evaraina unnara” to his courtiers who object to letting Gautami (Hema Malini) take the throne before the king does as “agra tamboolam”, you will find yourself convinced. And his wife Vashishti Devi (Shriya Saran) too is given her due credit when she allows her infant son to fight a war with his father, albeit reluctantly. Shriya as Vashishti Devi looked majestic yet delicate and played the role of a hurt mother impeccably. Hema Malini too was a delight to watch on screen.

Balayya in his 100th film too is actually resorting to his usual antics – killing an army singlehandedly, slapping thighs as he speaks about his clan, punch dialogues and larger than life heroism. However, because he does it in this dramatic set up of a historical as the proven valiant ruler, it all fits. But you can barely ignore the fact that he is getting older. Although the maturity in his face helped during the high-emotion war scenes, his body language wasn’t cooperating.

GPSK is all about the dialogues. Your love for the language will certainly get a boost after watching this film. It was a job well done by Sai Madhav Burra; kudos! As much as the album was a great hear, the songs don’t do much for the film. Especially two songs in the second half, Mriganayana and Saho Sarvabhowma seem unnecessary.

Khaidi No 150 Movie-story-rivew-stills-tickets-songs-free-download-Chiranjeevi-Kajal Aggarwal-Brahmanandam-Ali

Chiranjeevi-Kajal Aggarwal

CAST: Chiranjeevi, Kajal Aggarwal, Brahmanandam, Ali
DIRECTION: VV Vinayak
GENRE: Drama
DURATION: 2 hours 27 minutes

Due to a quirk of fate Kathhi Seenu (Chiranjeevi), a convict on the run, ends up swapping places with a good samaritan Shankar (Chiranjeevi), who is fighting for the rights of poor farmers. All Seenu wants to do is to run away to Bangkok, by conning the poor farmers, but he ends up becoming their liberator.

KHAIDI NO 150 MOVIE REVIEW: There was a time, from the late eighties to mid nineties to be specific, Chiranjeevi could entertain playing plain stupid. Like get all giggly and coy with the side kick while discussing how to chat-up the girl he digs. Or kiss his fingers in delight after touching patting her cheeks and blow air kisses. And when he’d hold his belt and doing those trademark tummy wriggles, the theatres would echo to deafening roars of whistles. Can’t fault Chiru for not trying though. He did all that in trying to be the Megastar of the past. And more. But watching him hold his yellow lungi — which is wrapped around a gaudy designer distressed denim — and go Ammudu let’s do Kummudu to a waif like Kajal Aggarwal, something seems off. Way off. There were whistles, yes, but they seem to be coming from motely bunch of pot-bellied-40-somethings, who seem to reminscing about the days of yore, that are long past.

It has to be said, Chiru doesn’t look a day older than he did in his last film, Shankar Dada back in 2007. Yet something seems amiss. Even with the dancing When shimmying and shaking in contour hugging pencil fit trousers, he still looks graceful, albeit in a way a 60 year old man would. Nothing like the Megastar of yore. Guess in the decade that he’s been away, we’ve gotten too used to the gravity defying dance moves of the likes of Allu Arjun, Ram Charan and NTR Jr that have become the benchmark. With the physical spectacle element gone of his dancing, the spring in steps is missing, the famed grace and poise notwithstanding.

Unfortunately, for the entire first half Chiru keeps doing just that for most the of first half. Perhaps he’s been away too long. May be he just needs to do it long enough before we all get used to it again. May be not. It will all depend on how big a fan you are of the Megastar and how glad you are to see him onscreen again.

Thankfully, in the second half, that we get to see flashes of the old Chiru. Not so surprisingly, it happens in those episodes where the man is beating the bad guys to pulp by the dozen. The evident decline in agility in physical movements notwithstanding, Chiranjeevi looks more convincing in the action episodes. When delivering lines that dwell on the ill-treatment meted out to the farmers, rattling out how the corporates are exploiting mother earth, he brings a gravitas that makes the dialogues seem better than they are.

The story has it’s heart in the right place. Chiranjeevi does the needful to play an a son of the soil, who is heading a motely bunch of old men who don’t want to part with their land. Tarun, Anjala Zaveri’s husband plays the vicious corporate honcho who wants to set up a factory on their farm lands, albeit a little too underwhelmingly. The action and drama bits are alright, as are some bits of the comedy tracks that involve a barrage of funny men — Ali, Brahmanandam and Posani. But does it all come together as a film? We aren’t sure. But yes, Chiranjeevi is back for sure, although we can’t quite say he’s back with a bang.

happy new year 2017 - hrithik roshan bollywood actor

With his gaze fixed on UP and the larger Dalit constituency, PM Narendra Modi launched on Friday an app whose acronym Bhim (Bharat Interface for Money) beamed a political message to the socially disadvantaged.

The app, which seeks to ensure easy, fast and secure digital transactions, saw Modi invoking Dalit icon B R Ambedkar several times at an event here as he argued digitalisation would empower the poor -rather than disadvantage them, as maintained by some demonetisation critics.

The acronym is reminiscent of pro-Dalit outfit BSP's "Jai Bhim" slogan and carries an association with Dalit movements. Apart from challenging BSP in the UP polls, the move seeks to counter the flak BJP received over violence against Dalits in some of the states it rules and also the Rohith Vemula suicide. The mantra of Dr Ambedkar was to work for uplift of the poor. And the biggest power of technology is that it can empower the poor," Modi said as he extolled the app's feature that allows a thumb print to activate it. Earlier, use of a thumb impression for legal purposes was a sign of illiteracy (angutha chhaap) but technology and the new app could turn this into an instrument of personal empowerment, the PM said. "Your thumb is your bank now. It has become your identity now."

The political application of Bhim was all too evident as the launch of the app comes just before the crucial assembly elections in UP where BJP is struggling to detach the Dalits from BSP chief Mayawati. The social enlargement Modi had in mind seemed to be an attempt to expand the constituency beyond the party's more traditional catchment of upper castes to the less well-off OBCs and SCs.

Addressing the gathering of party workers and officials, Modi recalled Ambedkar as an economist and even went on to utter "Bahujan Hitay Bahujan Sukhay".

"The RBI was born on principles he (Ambedkar) wrote in his thesis. How the federal structure should run economically. The Finance Commission that was formed for this purpose was a result of his principles. If there is one person whose contribution stands out in India's economic framework, it is Babasaheb Ambedkar's," Modi said.

"No matter how far a country has gone, even for them, they have to go to Google, ask Google Guru what is Bhim. At first, they will see Bhim from Mahabharat. If they dig deeper, they will find Bharat Ratna Bhimrao Ambedkar. This was the goal of his life, to empower the poor. And this is what the app will do. This is the poor's treasure. This will empower the poor, farmers, tribal people," the PM said.

Arguing that Bhim app will bring Ambedkar centrestage, Modi said, "Be it a smartphone or feature phone of Rs 1,000-1,200, Bhim app can be used. There is no need to have internet connectivity .One only needs a thumb" Modi's dedication of the app to Ambedkar is a part of his strategy over the past year to seek to position BJP as being truly mindful of his legacy . He has repeatedly attacked Congress for ignoring and even downplaying Ambedkar in comparison with Nehru-Gandhi leaders.

Happy New Year 2017- New App...

BJP and Sangh Parivar have tried to appropriate a piece of the Dalit icon's legacy as the Modi government accelerated construction of an Ambedkar memorial in Delhi.

Cash withdrawal limit from ATMs increased to Rs 4,500 per day from January 1 2017

The RBI has decided to increase the cash withdrawal limit from ATMs to Rs 4,500 per day from the present Rs 2,500 with effect from January 1.

However, there is no change in the weekly withdrawal limits, which stays at Rs 24,000.

"On a review of the position, the daily limit of withdrawal from ATMs has been increased (within the overall weekly limits specified) with effect from January 01, 2017, from the existing Rs 2500/- to Rs 4500/- per day per card. There is no change in weekly withdrawal limits. Such disbursals should predominantly be in the denomination of Rs 500," said RBI in a statement.

Earlier today, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley had said that RBI has enough currency and situation of cash supply has improved significantly.


People still have time to exchange the currency notes at designated RBI counters till March 31 after giving valid reasons for not depositing defunct notes in their accounts by December 30.


The government has come out with an ordinance making possession of old Rs 500/1,000 notes beyond a specified limit for numismatic purposes illegal and punishable.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi in a surprise announcement on November 8 declared the Rs 500 and 1,000 notes invalid.
