Ramcharan Tej has supported MAA(Movie Artists Association)’s plan to implement a rule that non telugu speaking artists number should be reduced in telugu movies and local talent should be promoted.
At the moment, nearly eight to 10 actors in the Telugu film industry are from Bollywood, Kollywood and Mollywood.
Actors from other industries are hogging the limelight and the actors’ guild intends to reverse the situation to safeguard the interests of thousands of artistes in Andhra Pradesh.
“We are going to hold talks with producers to hire more Telugu actors since our motto is to safeguard the interests of Telugu artistes,” says actor Sivakrishna, vice-president of the Movie Artistes’ Association (MAA).
“The bone of contention of 600-odd Telugu artistes is that dream merchants are violating the permissible limit of female leads, villains and other key characters and roping in other language actors for even cameo roles. In the process they are depriving hundreds of Telugu artistes,” rues O. Kalyan, ex-chief of the cine workers union.
Ramcharan adds, “I think this rule should have come a long time ago. This will go a long way in promoting and encouraging local talent. As an actor it’s my duty to see this is followed henceforth,” .
But, B-town star Sonu Sood who is also making waves in Tollywood, argues, “It’s an unfair ruling since many actors from the South are working in Bollywood and vice versa. Talent and popularity of a particular actor should be the criteria that counts,” he reasons.
However, Tamil reigning star Karthi, who is making his T-town debut says, “I don’t know much about the ruling but I would abide by any regulation imposed by Tollywood.”
Ace filmmaker Suresh Babu and chief of Andhra Pradesh Film Chamber of Commerce, whose son RaNa is making inroads in Bollywood, says, “It’s not easy to implement such stipulations. In fact, tinsel world is shrinking and talented actors are showcasing their skills in different languages. Apart from the suitability for the role, sometimes his talent and popularity could add value to a project. Having said that, I agree local talent should be encouraged too.”

Survi Review: 6/10
Storyline: Seenu (Ram), who didn’t even complete his graduation comes to city with an aim to complete degree. But he falls for Shruti (Hansika) at the first sight and comes to know that she is facing problem with a thug Bhavani (Sonu Sood), who wants to marry her against her wish. Seenu confronts Bhavani and a challenge from Bhavani gives an opportunity for Seenu to win Shruti’s love. One Seenu gets over Bhavani, he falls into a bigger problem called Rajanna (Jaya Prakash Reddy). Rajanna’s daughter Sandhya (Aksha) loves Seenu at first sight and asks her father to get her married to him. Now, Seenu has to use his brains to get out of this problem as he knows that sheer muscle power isn’t enough to get over Rajanna. The rest of the story is all about how Srinu solves the issues with a clever scheme.
Performance: Ram as Srinu, is simply fantastic and his style of action with a tinge of accent added grace to the film. Hansika as Shruti is fair enough but is not given a major role. Aksha carried herself well and performed with elegancy. Sonu Sood as Bhavani justified the role fantastically. Bharamanandam, Srinivas, Raghubabu were humorous and their rib-tickling acting in the movie can be appreciated. Jaya Prakash Reddy as Rajanna was apt.
Technical Aspects: Cinematography is just fantastic and praiseworthy. Locations chosen for the songs were simply superb and added flavor to the movie. Thaman.s music is the biggest asset of the film. The dialogues penned by the director were good. Direction is patchy and not well edited in post interval portions. There is nothing new in the subject line of the story. Content is repetitive and scenes are copied from various films (Brindavanam,Dhee, Ready.. Etc). Narrative is passable, though predictable. Choreography was fabulous perfectly suited
RAHUL's Verdict: The film starts on an interesting note but suddenly the graph of the film slides downwards in the initial reels itself. It starts holding the attention of the viewer’s towards interval portion. Unpredictable spins and curls in the second half will keep the people engrossed but the pre-interval portions might cause weariness. Overall, A good attempt by director to keep audience entertained.
Final Word: Paisa Wasool Entertainer

Watching at 12pm in Prasad Labs, Hyderabad
Survi Review: 1/10
After the two successive love entertainers Ye maya Chesave and 100% Love, this time Naga Chaitanya is trying for different image with this new movie Dhada. He has already proved himself for the lover boy roles with his last two movies. This time he is trying to prove as action and mass hero as well.
Storyline:
Vishwa (Naga Chaitanya) and Rajeev (Sriram) are brothers. Vishwa, who is an adventurous NRI, saves a girl from a drug gang which in turn affects the multi crore businesses of human trafficking, run by RD (Rahuil Dev) and Kelly (Kelly Dorjee). RD starts to hunt for Vishwa. Besides this, love story between nag and kajal runs parallel to the main story. Story is very simple with few twists.
Performances:
Naga Chaitanya has toned down his body and looking stylish and lean in his new Avatar. He improved tremendously in all departments compared his earlier movies. He is stylish in some costumes and he has also improved a lot in dialogue delivery. Kajal too looks quite different and indeed wore a kind of chinese style. her dialogue delivery and harityle makes you feel she is uninterested with this role. Ajay Bhuyan has tried to use her skin show as trumpcard but after certain time, it doesn t entice. Sriram has done a neat job. Sameesha as his wife is just adequate. Bharini,Bharamanandam, Ali, Venu Madhav, Uttej were wasted.
Technical Aspects:
Dhada storyline is perplexed. Direction is good in parts, but eccentric most of the time. Editing needs to be crisp. Cinematography by gnana shekar is of top class. He captured lush locales in a beautiful way and he has shown Naga Chaitanya and kajal excellently. The graphic-work/color-grading is also good. Devi Sri Prasad excels again with this film in terms of songs and background music.
Rahul's Verdict:
First half of the movie is adequate. But the second half is a complete letdown. Dhada is an example of what happens when the director loses his grip on story and goes on showcasing rich production values.
Final Word: Hattrick Missed
Vishnuvardhan plans BILLA – 2 with Pawan Kalyan
Tamil director Vishnuvardhan is working with Pawan Kalyan now and after this he is planning to make Billa movie’s sequel as BILLA – 2 with Ajith in tamil.
Earlier Chakri Toleti was supposed to direct Billa-2 in tamil but Ajith wanted Vishnuvardhan.
While working with pawan, vishnuvardhan asked him if he would be interested in listening to Billa-2 storyline, for which pawan said okay but only after completion of this movie.
Prabhas showed no interest in Billa-2 after losing money while producing Billa.
Pawan is already committed to 5 more movies after this and ‘Prince of Peace’.
So it depends on Vishnuvardhan that how fast can he develop his script and convince powerstar for billa’s sequel.
