Rajanna Movie Review
Overall Movie Rating : 3.5/ 5
Rajanna is a high voltage historical action & emotional Drama.
Story : The film revolves around the atrocities of Nizam Khandan. How Rajanna fought for the people and how his daughter realises his dreams is the main plot.
Story & Screen Play : Story is powerful & screenplay should have been more tighter in the 1st half.
Performances : Nag has delivered a superb performance as Rajanna in 2nd half. Little Girl Annie is quite stunning & realistic in her most important role. Shweta Bharadwaj stands out in the remaining cast as ‘Dorasani’.
Songs & Background Music : MM Keervani has once again proved himself as the best of the lot in scoring BGM. His songs are a great asset for the film.
Direction : Okay.
Plus : SS Rajamouli’s Action sequences, Nag’s Power packed role in 2nd half & Music especially ‘Vey Vey....’.
Minus : Over Dosage of emotional Drama in entire 1st half & Pretty Average VFX .
BoxOffice Verdict :
Rajanna was sold to RR for over 16Cr ( Only AP ). The film has the required stuff to become commercial success in its 2nd half. But how well the audience react to the 1st half decides its range of Success.

Venkatesh fears Mahesh Mania!
Venkatesh's film Bodyguard is slated for release on January 12. Producer Bellamkonda Suresh surprised everyone by stating that he would release this film in overseas, 3 days prior to AP release. No one had a clue about why he is doing this.
When we tried to find out the truth behind it, overseas distributors of Bodyguard requested Bellamkonda Suresh for an early release as Mahesh Babu's Businessman is coming on Jan 11. Mahesh's craze in overseas zone need not be explained now. He could easily blow away any opponent irrespective of the talk.
So if Bodyguard messes with Businessman in overseas, then the distributors will have to pay the price for it. Hence, they are opting for an early release. If Bodyguard could get positive feedback before Businessman hits the marquee, then chances are there for the former to survive the serious threat.

Movie Review: Panja
Movie : PANJA
Rating: 2.75/5
Banner: Arka Media
Producer(s): Shobhu Yarlagadda,Neelima Tirumalashetty
Director: Vishnu Vardhan
Music: Yuvan Shankar Raja
Casting: Pawan Kalyan, Sarah Jane Dias, Anjali Lavania, Tanikella Bharani, Brahmanandam, Ali, Parachuri, Jackie Shroff, Atul Kulkarni, Sheshu etc.
STORY :
Pawan Kalyan fans are going through a lull phase after his recent films are not doing well at the box office. They are jubilant after seeing the Pawan Kalyan getup and teasers of the film ‘Panjaa’. All are waiting to see the Power star on big screen with huge expectations and hope. The day has and wait is over for all the Power star fans who are eagerly awaiting the release of ‘Panjaa’.
Bhagawan ( Jackie Shroff), a gangster gives shelter to Jai ( Pawan Kalyan) who lost his mother and sister in his teens. Growing up Jai becomes a loyal and trusted hatchet man in his gang. Sabhapati ( Paruchuri Venkateshwar Rao), Guru ( Tanikella Bharani ) are also the members of Bhagawan gang.
Everything was fine until Bhagawan son Munna (Shehu) arrives from abroad. Munna, a womanizer and drug addict ill-treats everyone in the gang. Jai kills Munna when later tries to kill Jai friend Jahnavi( Anjali Laviana) for ignoring him. Jai leaves Calcutta and Bhagawan to his girlfriend Sandhya ( Sara Jane Dais) village in Andhra Pradesh.
Now, Bhagawan is after Jai to take revenge. Who will win the battle is anybody’s guess.
PERFORMANCES:
Pawan Kalyan looks different with wearing a beard. He is stylish and his body language is apt for the role. Unfortunately, the role didn’t etch well. It lacks energy. The role only shows the action side of Pawan Kalyan. He danced well in the ‘Papa Rayudu’ song.
Heroine Sarah Jane Dias looked pretty and considering it is her debut film in Telugu, she did pretty well. Second heroine Anjali Lavania acted in a brief role, but her assets are feast to the audience. She will be considered for the ultra-glamour roles in future.
Jackie Shroff as a gangster justified his selection. Tanikella Bharani, Paruchuri Venkateshwar Rao acted in less important roles. Atul Kularni is wasted in the movie. Sheshu Adavi as young villain is noisy. Subba Raju and Jhansi restricted to couple of scenes.
Ali couldn’t evoke laughs as Pawan Kalyan assistant in first half. Brahmanandam is only relief in the movie who appears in second half.
TECHNICAL :
Director Vishnu Vardhan who is known for making stylish films failed in the direction department. Vishnu Vardhan chose an age old story alright, but didn’t give the right treatment to appease the current generation audience. Rahul Koda has to learn a lot about screen play. Movie is slow in its pace right from start to finish. There is lot of scope for Editing.
The only positive thing about movie is music by Yuvan Shankar Raja and cinematography by PS Vinod. Dialogues by Abburi Ravi are good in couple of scenes. Action by Shaam kaushal is a big letdown. One would expect a lot in action genre movies. Styling by Anu Vardhan is good.
ANALYSIS :
Director Vishnu Vardhan tried too much impress Pawan Kalyan in out and out action oriented role totally forgot about audience. This out and out action film lacks novelty in terms of story, screenplay or taking. All you will see is hero escapes unhurt thro raining bullets. While the action part is monotonous, other ingredients like romance, sentiment and comedy took back seat.
Our Tamil director didn’t know what audience expects from Pawan Kalyan. He failed to establish a romantic thread between hero and heroine. Audience expects a lot from Pawan Kalyan and Ali. Their combo scenes are disappointing. The only relief and best part in the movie is ‘Papa Rayudu’ song and Pawan Kalyan dance.
On the whole, it is a big disappointment to Pawan Kalyan fans and audience who are expecting an entertainer from Pawan Kalyan. One more movie in Power star flop films list….Avoid it unless you are dying fan of Pawan Kalyan desperate to see him on big screen.

Hot 'Business Man' : Mahesh Babu locks lips with Kajal
Prince Mahesh Babu, who is a bit conservative in getting passionate with his onscreen ladies, has pushed the bar for onetime, says the buzz. If the sources are to be believed, there is a passionate lip lock scene in Mahesh Babu's upcoming film Businessman.
Mahesh Babu kissed Kajal's lips for a scene which lasts for more than a minute or so. Mahesh earlier gave pecks on the lips of Amisha Patel, Trisha and Anushka, but didn't really do any intimate or extreme lip lock scenes till now.
Superstar is usually against such romantic encounters with his leading ladies, but Puri Jagannadh convinced him to do this marathon lip lock scene as it is essential for the film. Recently his close competitor and equally conservative Pawan Kalyan shrugged off his inhibitions and locked lips with Trisha in Teenmaar. This time it is Mahesh's turn to set the silver screen on fire with a hot kiss.

Jr NTR dances at Ram Charan's Engagement
If you believe that there is rivalry between the young heroes of Nandamuri and Konidela families... then you have to read this. Fans believe that Nandamuri and Mega families are not that close in real life because of the professional rivalry.
But in reality Chiranjeevi and Balakrishna are best buddies. You can see the video of Balakrishna dancing at the Sangeeth ceremony of Chiranjeevi's elder daughter. Now it is NTR Junior's turn to show his acquaintance with Chiru's family.
NTR attended Ram Charan's engagement and stayed until very late night. After the engagement there were dances and other programs done at the venue. Many of the guests left, but NTR stayed along with his wife. He danced with full energy for various songs along with Ram Charan and Allu Arjun. They had a whale of a time there, but this was strictly private affair and hence the videos haven't come out yet...!!!
