1.) Who acted in Okkadu? Was it Mahesh Babu or NTR?

2.) I heard Samy was remade with Ballaiya, how did that run?

3.) Mahesh Babu, is he a big in telugu? What actor would he be compared with in Tamil Populaity wise?

More to come...:P

[swathy]

lookback at history

2004 - Okkadu

:lol: :lol:

[Surya]

Thanks for the info guys! :D

[Raikkonen]

Mahesh had an easy entry to Film World unlike Vijay..

If u look back Mahesh' career, if ppl ask name ur classics, he will only say Murari and Okkadu..

Vijay had lot of good movies like Kadhalukku Mariyadhai and Thullata Manamum Thullum..

Tirupachi was inspired by Arjun, what happened to Arjun, Arjun had some good songs, a good team (Entire Okkadu team), the movie was a near disaster...
Tirupachi was a hit here...

Okkadu was a blockbsuter, but dint break any records.. Ghilli was at that time was a record breaker...

[ssanjinika]

But Mahesh looks & acts(Agreed that probably only I think so) so much better than Vijay :roll:

[Raikkonen]

:hammer: @ NTR

[ssanjinika]

siva :lol:
told you its probably my opinion only :P

[ajithfederer]

:clap: good one ssanjinika :D

If u ignore some of the -'s like "Lack of Consistency in Storyline, Extreme Lack of Logic, Inconsistent Charecters, & Irrelevent scenes that have nothing to do witht he flow of the story" etc, it's a fun watch.

U will enjoy Jai Chiranjeeva if you expect absolutley nothing from it! :thumbsup:

Nothing against Chiru, he rocks! 8-)

I wasn't making fun of the 'hill jumping' Most of the comments went to the director. Chiru did what he was given perfectly. 8-)

The acting wasn't flawed. But it was the Directing, Charecter Analysis, and screenplay which was Dangerously Flawed. :P That's what made the movie worthy of "Making Fun" :P

[swathy]

G.D.Chakravarthy - Gulabi guy

`Pokiri` power!
By Moviebuzz | Saturday, 17 June , 2006, 09:50
Is Pokiri the biggest ever hit in the annals of Telugu cinema? The trade says that no other film in the past has taken such a huge share at the box-office worldwide.

Today (June17), Pokiri the blockbuster of the era is celebrating 50 days run in nearly 300 centres which is a unique feat. Remember that in none of the centres, the film was dragged and it ran on its own merit.

Mahesh Babu and his Pokiri has given Telugu cinema a pan Indian look with the film doing extraordinary business in places like Chennai, and Bangalore. Overseas, the film is the biggest hit in recent times and is reported to have collected $ 350,000 in US.

Pokiri remake rights to Tamil has gone for record Rs 1.30 Crore and its Kannada remake rights is also getting good offers. And an enterprising distributor from Kerala is planning to dub the film into Malayalam and release it.

Now the trade feels that Pokiri has the potential to break Chiranjeevi’s Tagore collection records and may cross the magic figure of Rs 30 Crore! As a mark of its growing popularity, Pokiri> was screened at the prestigious IIFA in Dubai on June 16.

8-) :clap: for Pokiri. 8-)[/tscii:eeabba25b9]

The pathetic status of Chiranjeevi in politics (news analysis is in Tamil)

it will take time (to reach the top).. can't dismiss his prowess in his first few years. he is certainly in a better position than our captain.

There's no doubt he's in a better position than gaptan (most thinking people in TN now recognize that VK's role is DMK sponsored i.e. to hit at DMK and split the MGR votes, indirectly favouring DMK).

One has to wait and see whether Chiranjeevi has endurance to weather it out to reach the top (as funding is the main issue in politics today). :|

Magadheera

Set against the backdrop of an eerie theme - reincarnation - Magadheera unfolds on the screen with multiple shades of entertainment. The story is set in 1609 AD, where the Udayghad dynasty comes alive. Kalabhairava (Ram Charan) is not only the bodyguard of the beautiful princess Mitravinda (Kajal), but also the trainer of soldiers.
True to the Telugu cinema norms, the princess falls in love with her guard. Billa (Gil Dev), the nephew of Udayghad’s King, has his eyes on the kingdom and the princess, but is defeated by Kalabhairava. Sher Khan (Srihari), a Muslim ruler, takes advantage of the rivalry between the family members and invades the kingdom, with Billa on his side. In a fierce battle, both the lovers are killed.



In 2009, the four characters reincarnate in the contemporary world, playing their parts in a modern way. But the revenge factor is supreme. How it is dealt with forms the rest of the story.

Ram Charan’s performance looks like an extension of what he had done in his debut film Chirutha. Magadheera limits him to action scenes and romantic songs, with fewer portions dedicated to emotions. The action, however, has more punch thanks to bike races, horse riding and what not.

Coming to emoting, there is not much scope for the young hero. But he enthrals the audiences with his mind-blowing dance in Bangaru Kodi Petta song, sizzling with Mumaith Khan.

Kajal Agarwal looks stunningly beautiful in perfect costumes - both as a princess and a modern girl. However, her emotional scenes are a drag because of her amateurish display, leading to frivolous results. She dominates the romantic scenes, which is a major advantage to the film.

Chiranjeevi’s cameo in the remix song will naturally elevate the commercial levels of the movie. And though senior hero Srihari played only a small role, it is of great importance to the film. He grips the scenes with his superb dialogues and getups.

Dev Gil who plays the villain - pre and post reincarnation - is the perfect choice by director Rajamouli to bring the much-needed villainy onscreen. Rao Ramesh, who impressed the audience with his role as a Naxalite in Gamyam, plays the role of an Aghora in this film, giving curious moments in the theatre.

As usual, the list of comedians includes Brahmanandam and Sunil. Kim Sharma does her part well as an item girl. When the movie was launched last year, director Rajamouli dared to reveal the central theme of the story. He has succeeded in his attempt, as he was able to keep the screenplay and narration gripping from start to finish. The second half has the soul in it.

Interestingly, any regular audience would find some striking similarities between Maghadeera and Arundhati. Both are about incarnation themes and both have the aghora element.



Music by M M Keeravani misses the magic this time, but suffices to hold his spell on the audience. Cinematography plays a vital role with capturing the historic ambience of castles, romantic sojourns into scintillating locales and also into the risky stunts. To replicate the mood of 400 years ago is not an ordinary thing and required much artwork. In this, the venture succeeded.

Stunts by Peter Haynes rule the roost. The film also has its visual grandeur. Dialogues are fine and synchronies with the episodes. In short, the movie encompasses some of the best commercial elements that Telugu audience have seen in the recent past.

Verdict: Brilliant entertainer[/tscii:6885b780c0]
